Question 19 • IC English 11 - Deering
Prufrock compares himself to Prince Hamlet, a central and important tragic hero, then says he is not Hamlet and was never meant to be. This shows that he sees himself as unimportant and unsuited to a leading role. The excerpt “No! I am not Prince Hamlet, nor was meant to be” is the clearest indication.
