| Abstract | |
One of the goals of this dissertation is to trace the tensions in "The Waste Land", by T. S. Eliot. Our starting point is the peculiar revision of the topic which can be found in the poetic text. If the topic, according to Ernst Curtius, can be understood as a "provisions cellar", as a web of familiar connections between texts of different traditions, the references in "The Waste Land", explicit or not, are unfamiliar. In this sense, we understand that every sign in this poem is under a tense relation, which covers doubly a promise and a refusal of the bond with the external references. The paper also conducts a bibliographic review of foreign and national readings of "The Waste Land" and presents, at the end, a proposal of translation (AU) | |
