bien sûr artistes ont réfléchi à la question et ont formulé des réponses qui, toutes, sont valables et méritent d’être formulées. 1 La divulgation d’un monde sensible « Les artistes sont les antennes de la race ». (Ezra Pound, in How to read) A en croire Ezra Pound, un poète américain (antisémite mais là n’est pas la question), les artistes seraient les seuls capables dans une société humaine de capter des réalités sensibles et d’annoncer un nouveau monde. Il est donc une figure centrale

Each of these 3,000 to 4,000-pound solar-powered satellites circles the globe at about 12,000 miles (19,300 km), making two complete rotations every day. The orbits are arranged so that at any time, anywhere on earth, there are at least four satellites “visible” in the sky. 6. ....

parlant, il s'agit d'une permutation d'ordre 6. La première sextine est l'œuvre du troubadour Arnaut Daniel au XIIe siècle. Forme particulière du canso, elle fut notamment utilisée par Dante et Pétrarque, qui fixèrent son nom, puis Luís de Camões, Ezra Pound, Joan Brossa et Louis Zukofsky. L'Oulipo s'est également emparé de cette contrainte. Raymond Queneau la généralise en inventant la quenine, modifiant le nombre de strophes, Oskar Pastior l'étend aux syllabes et phonèmes avec sa minisestina (mini-sextine)

surréalisme avec Apollinaire et André Breton, et d'où viendra le renouveau littéraire apporté par Proust et Céline. Dans les années 1920, beaucoup d'écrivains étrangers viennent découvrir Paris et s'en inspirent dans leur œuvre : Ernest Hemingway, Henry Miller, Gertrude Stein, Ezra Pound, etc. et d’autres attirés par son milieu littéraire viennent y chercher l’espoir : D. H. Lawrence, James Joyce, Samuel Beckett, Eugène Ionesco, etc. Montparnasse, quartier des artistes depuis la fin du xixe siècle, connaît son âge d'or. Après la Seconde

que el resto lo dejaría igualito, y ahí se echó a reír con esa risa incompleta que me da miedo. Yo le hablé de Hemingway, de que a él también le gustaba el boxeo y cuando se emborrachaba iba a los bares a buscar pelea, de que le dio una paliza a Ezra Pound en París. Le dije, quizá sólo por decirlo, que la poesía era como el box, si te descuidas puede romperte el culo y sacarte sangre. -Yo pude haber cascado a ese amigo tuyo caga'o'e risa. Suena la campana, lo saludo mirándolo a los ojos, dejo que

tension. To do this, readers identify oppositions in the poem (as between ‘us’ and the Secret or between knowing and supposing) and see how other elements of the poem, particularly figurative expressions, align themselves with these oppositions. Take Ezra Pound’s famous two-line poem, ‘In a Station of the Metro’: The apparition of these faces in the crowd; Petals on a wet, black bough. Interpreting this involves working with the contrast between crowds in Literary Theory the subway and the natural

subject matter. In 1909, Gertrude Stein (1874-1946), by then an expatriate in Paris, published Three Lives, an innovative work of fiction influenced by her familiarity with cubism, jazz, and other movements in contemporary art and music. The poet Ezra Pound (1885-1972) was born in Idaho but spent much of his adult life in Europe. His work is complex, sometimes obscure, with multiple references to other art forms and to a vast range of literature, both Western and Eastern. He influenced many other poets

international arrivals up at the Phoenix Airport by 11.1% through October of 2004. What is motivating theses foreign tourists to visit now? This should not be surprising to anyone tracking the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the British pound, the Euro, or the Japanese yen. The currency of many other countries has increased in value against the dollar, effectively putting travel to the United States on a discount sale. Why spend the time promoting to international tourists? Ask Arizonans

escapist label which is hung around their necks. Perhaps the ultimate test of what literature is derives from the capacity of a text to surprise us by communicating a sense of a unique, personal vision which we somehow recognize as authentic. Or as Ezra Pound neatly put it: ‘Literature is news that stays news.’ But if there are, in this sense, as many books as there are readers, there are also different readerships, distinct by age, class, background, xxvi PREFACE location and, not least, century
