Art of Representing Contemporary Issues through Myths and Religious Associations in the Plays of T.S. Eliot

Abstract

T.S. Eliot was mainly confronted with the matter of communication between the modern creative person and old society that he wilfully portrayed through his plays. The issue of the creative thing that is best explained by the word “alienation” is especially relevant for most of his plays. He has done experiments within the discovery of a replacement medium for dramatic expression. Even his plays are units of experiment grounds with sensibility. As every writer discerns his own lovely, consistent, and intelligible dramatic plan, he finds the general public distracted by commercially profitable aspects of the play. He has managed to provoke his audience into the participation within his dramas. He could do with conveyance of attracting their consciousness into the contemporary issues with the help of mythical and historical events adding in his plays. There is spirituality in most of his plays which provide them one thing that generally they are acquitted from a distance appearance.
