Title: | Dante Alighieri and T. S. Eliot's Interpoetic Relations |
Contributor: | Čuljat, Sintija |
Author: | Gašparac, Lucija |
Description: | T. S. Eliot’s opus consists of various essays, plays and poems, many of which contain explicit and implicit references and allusions to Dante Alighieri. For the most part, Eliot was in accord with Dante’s opinions on poetry and language and the theoretical background serves as the starting point of this paper. The religious component of poets’ works – interpretations of divinity, spirituality and salvation is another key element that is explored before delving deeper into specific imagery and other poetic devices. This paper is by no means a comparison between the two poets, nor does it aim to provide comprehensive analyses of the interpreted poems. It aims to analyse Dante’s influence on Eliot in terms of common elements that can be found in his works, whether they come directly from Dante, or from another shared influence. In particular, the paper delves into themes and imagery present in The Divine Comedy that Eliot reworks in his poem The Waste Land. |
