Hollow Men T.S Eliot. Produced by: Bayron Lobo Herrera.

This collage mainly represents the period between wars, where there was a little hope for life, but desolation, political problems and lack of food prevented thinking about that perspective. The feeling of revenge caused resentment in the people, because many people died, this is represented by means of the solitude.

Sonnet Analysis 

SONNET 25

Let those who are in favour with their stars, 

Of public honour and proud titles boast, 

Whilst I, whom fortune of such triumph bars, 

Unlook'd for joy in that I honour most. 

Great princes' favourites their fair leaves spread 

But as the marigold at the sun's eye; 

And in themselves their pride lies buried,

For at a frown they in their glory die. 

The painful warrior famoused for worth, 

After a thousand victories once foil'd, 

Is from the book of honour razed quite, 

And all the rest forgot for which he toil'd:

Then happy I, that love and am beloved 

 Where I may not remove nor be removed

Italic: Low tone

Structure

• First quatrain:

Let those who are in favour with their stars

Of public honour and proud titles boast,

Whilst I, whom fortune of such triumph bars,

Unlook'd for joy in that I honour most.

This part talks about people who think they are better than others for their accomplishments and love to tell others; And also of people who are just the opposite, do not like to presume their achievements are more humble. It's a comparison.

• Second quatrain:

Great princes' favourites their fair leaves spread

But as the marigold at the sun's eye,

And in themselves their pride lies buried,

For at a frown they in their glory die

The sonnet continues to refer to such overbearing people that if people do not take them into account, they do not feel anyone and they look for someone else to listen to them. They remain arrogant.

• Third quatrain:

The painful warrior famoused for fight,

After a thousand victories once foil'd,

Is from the book of honour razed quite,

And all the rest forgot for which he toil'd

This part speaks of the moment in which the egocentric people for more followers that they have, will arrive a moment in which they will fall and will simply be forgotten by all.

• Couplet:

Then happy I, that love and am beloved

Where I may not remove nor be removed.

In the end you can notice a resignation on the part of the author when he says that he can not change what becomes as an acceptance towards this way of life.
