Imagism: An Introduction Make it New!
Symbolism • A form of expression in which the world of appearances is violently rearranged by artists who seek a different and more truthful version of reality
Imagism • Imagism came out of symbolism with the help of Americans Ezra Pound, and T.S. Eliot • They founded Imagism which flourished from 1912-1917 • Believed that images alone could carry a poem’s message. • Rid poems of the prettiness, sentimentality, and artificiality • Free verse
Let’s do an experiment… • Following are four images • I will show each briefly • Write down the first emotion that comes to mind
Now… • Take a moment and try to write a simple sentence that describes each picture, which also makes you feel the emotion.
