Abstract EN
Sweeney Agonistes is an interesting literary poetic work by T.
S.
Eliot.
It has not yet been completely given sufficient examination and analysis.
This study endeavors to illustrate the challenges faced by Eliot in dealing with Sweeney Agonistes as a modern dialogue for modern readers.
The main goal of this paper is to examine the dialogue of the piece of work under study together with affording a prevue on the basics creating its background.
To many critics, Sweeney Agonistes is perplexing poetic piece of literature to the degree that several critics do not call it a play but a fragment as Eliot himself named it.
The first intriguing point which needs to be clarified in connection with Sweeney Agonistes is to prove that this short fragmentary piece is a play.
The researcher tries to illustrate to what extent Eliot had the ability to make Sweeney Agonistes a play.
The study follows the analytical approach to achieve the goal for drawing inferences.
It includes a brief introduction about Eliot’s theories on drama and poetry, to be followed by critical-analytical observations on the use of dialogue and characters with special focus on the utility of modern dialogue to back up the argument of the researcher to call it a play.
