2. • Confusion is generally considered a literary technique, but
relatively little attention has been paid to the notion of
concept as a literary form.
• T.S. Based on Eliot's West Land Although radically different,
these two works embody the distinctive features of the
attractive form.
• This is intersectionalism, or reliance on external sources
for meaning and significance;
• Intense and self-conscious artificiality; Confrontational
attitude towards the audience; Selective, based on the
specificity of the specifics; Allocation of multiple cultures
and broad anachronism.
3. • This is intersectionalism, or reliance on external
sources for meaning and significance;
• Intense and self-conscious artificiality;
Confrontational attitude towards the audience;
Selective, based on the specificity of the specifics;
Allocation of multiple cultures and broad
anachronism.
• Despite being the victim of numerous failures, the
loving form allows a unique dialogue between the
artist and the audience, as well as the creation of an
indefinite period of past, present, and future.
4. Methodology
• The methodology is a chain of approaches and techniques
used in the research process. It provides guidance to
research by providing principles and rules for conducting
research properly.
• This is an analytical as well as a descriptive type of
research. Researchers analyzed various symbols and signs
in the above poem.
• As Elliott uses personal as well as traditional symbols, it is
very difficult to understand his symbols, so for symbols,
the material is obtained from a variety of resources.
5. Critical Analysis of Allusions and Symbols:
• There are four wastelands in literary history. The First
Waste Land is of King Oedipus of Thebes, which shows the
Oedipus complex i.e. sexual intercourse between mother
and son.
• The Second Waste Land is of King Fisher, who became
impotent due to some immoral activity.
• The third Waste Land is the Biblical Waste Land; is
concerned with the sufferings of people who worshipped
idols.
6. • The fourth or modern Waste Land is written by T. S. Eliot
which signifies the sins and the fire of lust in modern
society
• Well at the end of every wasteland we find a solution and
penance of rebirth or regeneration.
• Similarly, the modern wasteland by T. S. Eliot also ends in
the ray of hope;
• T. S. Eliot gives us a message that the three "DA's", Datta,
Daydream, and Damyata are the solutions to save modern
civilization from chaos and ruin.
7. Canclusion
• Eliot's persuasive and symbolic technique is far-fetched. He
uses more signs and symbols than John Milton. It seeks to
associate the present with the past in order for some
material purpose from past events. Through these signs
and symbols, he predicts the future of modern man and
modern culture. Modern man can attain liberation through
expression on the message of Thunder i.e. give, empathize,
and control.
