Summary "Des Imagistes: An Anthology" by Ezra Pound is a collection of modernist poetry written in the early 20th century. The anthology features works from a number of influential imagist poets, emphasizing clarity of expression, precision in language, and vivid imagery. It likely discusses themes such as beauty, nature, and the complex interplay of emotion and sensory experience. The collection includes striking poems from notable figures like Richard Aldington, H.D., F.S. Flint, and Amy Lowell. Each poet showcases their unique voice while adhering to the imagist principles defined by Pound, which call for a direct treatment of the subject and a focus on "the thing itself." The works are rich in visual imagery and evoke a strong emotional resonance, often drawing inspiration from classical themes, nature, and personal experiences. Overall, the anthology serves as a cornerstone of the imagist movement, celebrating poetic brevity and the power of precise language in evoking strong imagery and emotional depth.
