초록

This paper aims to illuminate the ways in which Ezra Pound revitalized English poetry with the various poetic experiments that he learned from the Provençal masters in the Middle Ages as well as his contemporary writers, such as F. T. Marinetti, T. E. Hulme, F. M. Ford and formulated the disruptive, elliptical and antithetical modernist poetics in his early poems. Excluding figurative language or fancy rhetoric of Classical poetry, he came to believe in the sanctity of the plain word. He strove to project every word as an isolated object and used it as the modernists’ only poetic medium, which rises straight, concrete, and dense like a monolithic. Rejecting any attempt to coordinate words, phrases, clauses, and sentences found in Classical poetry, he employed the discrete and disparate word that breaks down the syntactic relations between words and phrases, and crumbles the structure of meaning accordingly. With respect to the ways in which he employed the disparate and separate words, his early poems realize the most distinctive feature of modern poetry: “Hunger of the Word.”

Abstract

This paper aims to illuminate the ways in which Ezra Pound revitalized English poetry with the various poetic experiments that he learned from the Provençal masters in the Middle Ages as well as his contemporary writers, such as F. T. Marinetti, T. E. Hulme, F. M. Ford and formulated the disruptive, elliptical and antithetical modernist poetics in his early poems. Excluding figurative language or fancy rhetoric of Classical poetry, he came to believe in the sanctity of the plain word. He strove to project every word as an isolated object and used it as the modernists’ only poetic medium, which rises straight, concrete, and dense like a monolithic. Rejecting any attempt to coordinate words, phrases, clauses, and sentences found in Classical poetry, he employed the discrete and disparate word that breaks down the syntactic relations between words and phrases, and crumbles the structure of meaning accordingly. With respect to the ways in which he employed the disparate and separate words, his early poems realize the most distinctive feature of modern poetry: “Hunger of the Word.”
