This essay was written by a second-year undergraduate at Durham University. It answers the question:
'Often in modern literature, despair prompts a new style of writing, or it becomes itself a kind of style – a darkly ironic style.’ Discuss.
It looks at the influence of despair on T.S. Eliot’s writing style in poems such as ‘Marina’ and ‘Four Quartets’, the role of religion, and introspection in poems such as ‘The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock’ and ‘Ash Wednesday’.
Can be used for university and A-level examples.
