Description: Revue Al Athar
Modernity has left indelible scars on the individual’s psychological equilibrium. Man becomes a deformed product of the sterile modern times, psychologically ostracised, leading an alienated existence. Interpersonal alienation becomes the defining characteristic of the moder man, who dwells in an unbearable loneliness and solitude. The social psychologist Joseph G. Keegan describes the alienated man as the one “[whose] basic identity has either vanished or become so nebulous as to be practically nonexistent. We may say that alienation is a condition of psychological existence that is emotionally and motivationally flat and dispirited, devoid of meaninglessness to self as well as to others.”1 Thepresent paper is mainly concerened with emotional alienation, which is depicted by the Modernist poet T.S. Eliot in his poem “The Waste Land”, which is divided into five sections.
