The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock Lines allude to Shakespeare's Hamlet. Explain

English
1 answer:
sleet_krkn [62]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Allusions are primarily employed to offer a deeper context and meaning to the work. Eliot in his popular work titled 'The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock' alludes to several legendary literary characters in order to explain Prufrock's condition and the state of mind he was going through.

In the lines 'No, I am not Prince Hamlet,' he alludes to Shakespeare's Hamlet in order to display a similar level of awkwardness and doubtfulness possessed by both Prufrock and Hamlet. Although <u>Prufrock is not similar to Hamlet in his exceptionality rather he seems more related to Polonius in terms of their narrowed perception among people</u>. Sometimes, <u>Prufrock is even compared to Jester, the fool as he has constantly failed to express his love to his beloved and remained almost as a dead individual like Jester</u>.

Read the sentence. What is the purpose of the subordinate conjunction "although"? Although it was raining slightly outside, Tama
just olya [345]

Answer:

It signals that the sentence will explain what Tamanika did despite the rain.​

Explanation:

"Although" is a subordinating conjunction that usually denotes the existence of an obstacle or some unfavorable conditions. However, despite them, the intented plan or an action has been performed.

Here, we see that Tamanika went for a walk despite the rain outside.

That means that this conjunction denotes an opposition between existing conditions and the outcome of the action. Conditions don't always need to be unfavorable, they only need to be opposite of the result. For example: "Although he had a clear shot, he missed the entire goal."
