Ambiguity and Eliot's "Tradition Versus Individual Talent"

[Blue Sea]

Hey guys! It is me again, and I am in desperate need for your help

I have been studying T.S. Eliot's "Tradition Versus Individual Talent" and applying it to "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock". My professor asked us to analyze ambiguity in the poem with reference to the relevant part in the essay. I'm not sure that Eliot referred to ambiguity in his essay. In fact, I think he, Ezra pound and T. E. Hulme advocated accuracy and economy of words. We examined this line "There will be time to murder and create," as an example of the alleged ambiguity of something, may be the subject matter.

Any help, please?

Here is one ambiguous statement from Eliot's essay, "Tradition and the Individual Talent."

"Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality, but an escape from personality."

A possible starting point for an essay is to decide what this statement means to you, and whether or not Love Song exemplifies the aforementioned dictum.
