The examination of how modern, overeducated and intellectual men are alienated from their environment of materialistic values of the Modern Era, with regard to the poem “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” by T.S. Elliot.
An intellectual man eventually questions the deviations in his society and he is usually
astounded by how he is obliged to stand alone in that society. This work specifically focuses on
how the shattered values of Modern World lead the intellectual individual to alienation and
suffering, with regard to the poem “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” by T.S. Elliot. The
given imageries, stylistic devices, meanings and some certain references are examined as well, as
indications of the suffering of the individual.
The essay also includes the historical and social background of American Literature of
twentieth century and stresses the relation between the mentioned factors and the attitude of
modern men. After World War I, the artistic approach of some certain writers of the mentioned
era has been mainly affected by the social changes. The main aim is to study how these changes
influenced the poetry of T.S. Elliot; more specifically investigate the indications of that certain
state of mind embedded in “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock”.
As a focus, the research question of this essay suggests concentrating on the topic by
taking major themes, linguistics, structures, tone, atmosphere and setting of the poem into
consideration. All the mentioned points are discussed in a detailed way in order to determine and
comprehend the state of endurance and alienation of modern man. With the help of stylistic
devices, language and themes he uses, Elliot demonstrates how he is distressful about the
materialistic values of the Modern Era, as well as his personal suffering
