Imagist Poetry
by Bob Blaisdell
In the early twentieth century the Imagist movement ranked as one of the most radical poetic movements of the day. The imagists sought to blaze new literary trails and stretch the frontiers of poetic writing in English by following carefully prescribed principles: direct treatment of the subject, the use of few adjectives, choosing the exact word and developing individual rhythmic style in order to create works with "a hardness, as of cut stone." This volume contains over 180 well-chosen Imagist masterpieces by Ezra Pound. D. H. Lawrence, H. D. (Hilda Dolittle), James Joyce, Wallace Stevens, William Carlos Williams and other masters, as well as a roster of lesser-known poets: Richard Aldington, Walter Conrad Arensberg, Skipwith Cannell, Adelaide Crapsey, John Gould Fletcher, and many others. Ideal for use in high school and college literature courses, this collection will appeal to anyone interested in first-rate modern verse and one of the seminal poetic movements of the century.
