Samenvatting:

The Waste Land by T. S. Eliot is a groundbreaking modernist poem that explores themes of spiritual decay, disillusionment, and renewal in a fragmented post-World War I world. Blending mythology, historical references, and multiple voices, Eliot portrays a barren, chaotic landscape where individuals struggle with alienation and loss. Through its five sections, the poem reflects on the collapse of culture and the search for meaning, ending with a hopeful yet uncertain call for peace.
