This study deals with modernism through the use of symbolism and myth in addition to crisis topic in the poetry of the great Iraqi poet Abdul Wahab Al-Bayati and the American English poet T.S. Eliot. The impact of Western literature on the new generation of Arab poets and writers can be traced. The global concerns of post-colonial Arab poets who have been exposed to the influence of Western modernity indicate the gradual disappearance of literary history paradigms that isolate poets by race, language, gender, or geography. With the exception of prominent poets who have a strong foundation and trust in their authentic Arab heritage, the most prominent of these poets is Abdul Al-Wahab Al-Bayati.He is the mastermind of many legends and the creator of the mask in contemporary Arabic poetry.T.S. Eliot preserved a great deal of reverence for Western myths and literary traditions, and he filled his work full of hints, quotes, footnotes, and scientific interpretations. Eliot praises literary traditions and states that the best writers are those who write with a sense of continuity with these writers who have come before, as if all literature is a series of forms that every new writer must introduce.Eliot creates a personality that exemplifies perfection, represented by one body for both genders.
