Then respond***
Amy Lowell & Ezra Pound had very different ideas of what constituted an Imagist poetry, each expressed in the sources we have in front of us–essays from each writer & examples of their poetry. Using these texts, write one or two paragraphs that compare Pound’s & Lowell’s poetry. What do they have in common? What do you see that’s different? How might their differing opinions on/philosophies of poetry account for these differences?
*** Your answer should be formatted as one or two correctly punctuated & grammatically accurate paragraphs; you should have a quotation from at least two of the sources as evidence & an explanation of that quote as it relates to your answer. You do not need to complete a works cited, but do name the texts you are quoting & use in-text citations. Remember that quoting poetry requires a / to indicate line breaks,
An example: Emily Dickinson’s poem “202” is tongue-in-cheek, a single quatrain that takes on the idea of faith versus science directly: “But Microscopes are prudent / In an Emergency!” (87).
