As the epigraph is taken from Dante’s Inferno it is easy to see that Eliot has used something that is often in a foreign language to the reader to further separate the poem from the reader. Alexander

O’Connor gives an obvious hint at this idea when describing Mr. Head: “He might have been Virgil summoned in the middle of the night to go to Dante” ( Stories 250)‚ painting in the audiences’ mind the image of Dante’s epic tale of redemption. This pride in Mr. Head manifests itself in racism. He feels superior to African Americans and tries to teach Nelson to do the same: “We didn’t come

His dissatisfaction with the world around him‚ a world of “sawdust restaurants” and “cheap hotels‚” compels him to believe that there is more to life as he sees it‚ that there is something he’s missing. The epigraph from Dante Alighieri’s ‘Inferno‚’ a poem in which the protagonist travels down the sequential levels of Hell‚ suggests a lowering of Eliot’s life’s value‚ a descent into the saturnine‚ the dark. Indeed‚ ‘Prufrock’ takes responders on a largely downward ride‚ from the skyline

We pity him here
