초록

This paper examines Eliot’s concept of time in his early poetry which includes Prufrock and Other Observations(1917), Poems 1920 and The Waste Land(1922). Eliot denies the sequential time which is independent of the subject’s experiences. The mechanical and linear time contorts the subject’s inconsistent experiences and impressions, each of which is limited by infinitely divisible time. Instead, Eliot shows that diverse moments are apprehended spatially, locked in a timeless unity that eliminates any feeling of sequence by the act of juxtaposition. Furthermore, he resists the oppressive concept of history and envisions the mythical time by the composition of diverse moments. This innovative concept of time serves as a means to negate the “I” which progresses causally in the objective and historical time.

Abstract

This paper examines Eliot’s concept of time in his early poetry which includes Prufrock and Other Observations(1917), Poems 1920 and The Waste Land(1922). Eliot denies the sequential time which is independent of the subject’s experiences. The mechanical and linear time contorts the subject’s inconsistent experiences and impressions, each of which is limited by infinitely divisible time. Instead, Eliot shows that diverse moments are apprehended spatially, locked in a timeless unity that eliminates any feeling of sequence by the act of juxtaposition. Furthermore, he resists the oppressive concept of history and envisions the mythical time by the composition of diverse moments. This innovative concept of time serves as a means to negate the “I” which progresses causally in the objective and historical time.
