I dare you to post it right now and prove me right
How does a close reading of T.S. Eliot' The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock enhance your understanding of the modernist movement?

In your response, include detailed analysis of the text.


At the crux of T.S. Eliot’s poem The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock lies the dynamic exploration of human nature and morality, alongside Prufrock’s psychological malady, which enhances my own understanding of the early modernist movement. It is principally Eliot’s use and control of language, content, construction that shows his unique confrontation of universal thematic concerns such as uncertainty, fragmentation and debasement, which propels the poem towards its irresolution. The coalescence of symbolism and Prufrock’s moral afflictions act as T.S. Eliot’s vessel for his insightful perception on the intricacies of the human condition, thus imbuing Prufrock with a rich textual integrity that allows the transcendence of its modernist context and its continuing conceptual relevance to modern society and existence.

come on, that's shittiest thing ever written

Aside from the fact that it's in first person that's bloody good.

Crisium, you have got to agree with me.

it's module b, you're allowed to have your own interpretation, i.e. I and me - but make sure they're used sporadically; twice in the intro max, maybe twice spread out around the body, and definitely just once in the conclusion

Generally speaking, the more ‘I’s and ‘me’s in your essay, the less sophisticated it sounds, so make them count.

I hate writing in first person idk why but I love your writing, seriously it's a really good start to a fantabulous essay :)

If that's the shittiest I'd love to see your best

Other than that, that was absolutely amazing

Try to avoid speaking in first person though :D

dw, my writing was horrendous at the beginning of year 11 but somehow English finally clicked and I've improved exponentially over time.

I'm sure it'll happen to you sooner or later. :)

PM'ed

Well I guess you learn something everyday

I refrain from doing so as I feel as if first person references do not fit into an essay
Yeah, generally incorporate third person, Module B is the only time it's appropriate to use 1st (but don't do it for the other modules and AOS).
