dc.description.abstract |
This thesis is a study of specific aspects of the works of the American Poet, Ezra
Loomis Pound. Although Mr. Pound remains a controversial figure in the view of some
scholars, many have come to appreciate the genuine Mr. Pound. To enjoy his work
requires an in-depth examination of not only his poetry and essays, but the reason he took
the political stance attributed to him, why he chose the canto style of writing, why
Confucianism became his philosophy and why he frequently wrote employing the
Chinese ideogram.
Mr. Pound is an important figure in literary studies due to his efforts in determining
the dawn of the Modernist Age of writing, which changed forever the way poets present
their art. Also, his support and aid to other artists such as James Joyce, T. S. Eliot, and
Robert Frost (to name a few) adds to the respect that is his due. Besides these significant
facts, his poetry is a brilliant example of Imagist writing in the canto style, which guides
the reader through a history, through magnificent imagery, and through a philosophical
view of our world.
These issues are addressed herein to aid in the understanding of an artist and his
accomplishments. |
