Imagining Machines: Time & Image In The Shorter Poems Of William Carlos Williams, Stuart Campbell
Imagining Machines: Time & Image In The Shorter Poems Of William Carlos Williams, Stuart Campbell
Theses : Honours
A discussion of time and image in the shorter poems of William Carlos Williams. The particular focus is Williams' short poems published between the Great War and World War II. The relationship between the form of the poems, and Williams' theories on poetry, as expressed in Spring and All, and The Wedge is examined. In turn, Williams' theories are viewed in the context of Imagism, Objectivist poetics, and the modernist machine aesthetic. Williams' application of these theories is seen to create a poetic form that generates images in the reader's imagination in synchrony with the moment.
