The Thing Poetry of Marianne Moore and Francis Ponge »
« Reflecting the Other: The Thing Poetry of Marianne Moore and Francis Ponge » by Vanessa Jane Robinson A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Comparative Literature University of Toronto © Copyright by Vanessa Jane Robinson 2012 « Reflecting the Other: The Thing Poetry of Marianne Moore and Francis Ponge » Vanessa Jane Robinson Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Comparative Literature University of Toronto 2012 Abstract Across continents and independently of one another, Marianne Moore (1887-1972) and Francis Ponge (1899-1988) both made names for themselves in the twentieth century as poets who gave voice to things. Their entire oeuvres are dominated by poems that attempt to reconstruct an external thing (inanimate object, plant or animal being) through language, while emphasizing the necessary distance that exists between the writing self and the written other. Furthermore, their thing poetry establishes an “essential otherness” to the subject of representation that (ideally) rejects an objectification of that subject, thereby rendering the “thing” a subject-thing with its own being-for-itself. This dissertation argues that the thing poetry of Marianne Moore and Francis Ponge successfully challenged the hierarchy between subject and object in representation by bringing the poet’s self into a dialogue with the encountered thing. The relationship between the writing self and the written other is akin to what Maurice Merleau-Ponty refers to in Le visible et l’invisible when he describes the act of perceiving what is visible as necessitating one’s own visibility to another. The other becomes a mirror of oneself and vice versa, Merleau-Ponty explains, to the extent that together they compose a single image.

Gained in Translation: Ezra Pound, Hu Shi, and Literary Revolution
Gained in Translation: Ezra Pound, Hu Shi, and Literary Revolution Jenine HEATON* I. Introduction Hu Shi 胡適（ 1891-1962）, Chinese philosopher, essayist, and diplomat, is well-known for his advocacy of literary reform for modern China. His article, “A Preliminary Discussion of Literary Reform,” which appeared in Xin Qingnian 新青年（ The New Youth） magazine in January, 1917, proposed the radical idea of writing in vernacular Chinese rather than classical. Until Hu’s article was published, no reformers or revolutionaries had conceived of writing in anything other than classical Chinese. Hu’s literary revolution began with a poetic revolution, but quickly extended to literature in general, and then to expression of new ideas in all ﬁ elds. Hu’s program offered a pragmatic means of improving communication, fostering social criticism, and reevaluating the importance of popular Chinese novels from past centuries. Hu Shi’s literary renaissance has been examined in great detail by many scholars; this paper traces the synergistic effect of ideas, people, and literary movements that informed Hu Shi’s successful literary and language revolu- tions. Hu Shi received a Boxer Indemnity grant to study agriculture at Cornell University in the United States in 1910. Two years later he changed his major to philosophy and literature, and after graduation, continued his education at Columbia University under John Dewey （1859-1952）. Hu remained in the United States until 1917. Hu’s sojourn in America coincided with a literary revolution in English-language poetry called the Imagist movement that occurred in England and the United States between 1908 and 1917. Hu’s diaries indicate that he was fully aware of this movement, and was inspired by it.

T. Tsiang accessed dominant US publishing markets and readerships by presenting themselves and their works as cultural hybrids that strategically blended enticing Eastern content and forms with familiar Western language and structures. Yan Phou Lee perpetrated cross-cultural comparisons that showed that Chinese were not unlike Europeans and Americans. Yung Wing appropriated and then transformed dominant American autobiographical narratives to recuperate Chinese character. Sadakichi Hartmann and Yone Noguchi combined poetic traditions from Japan, Europe, and America in order to define a modernism that included cosmopolitans such as themselves. And H. T. Tsiang promoted Marxist world revolution by experimenting with fusions of Eastern and Western elements with leftist ideology.

Fracturing the Translation Or Translating the Fractures? Questions in the Western Reception of Non-Linear Narratives in Japanese Arts and Poetics
Comparative Critical Studies Electronic (2013): 39–56 Edinburgh University Press DOI: 10.3366/ccs.2013.0112 C British Comparative Literature Association www.euppublishing.com/ccs Fracturing the Translation or Translating the Fractures? Questions in the Western Reception of Non-Linear Narratives in Japanese Arts and Poetics SHIGEMI INAGA IN A COUNTRY OF TOPSY-TURVY Let us begin with a quote from the well-known astronomer and American diplomat Percival Lowell, who knew Japan well:1 The boyish belief that on the other side of our globe all things are of necessity upside down is startlingly brought back to the man when he first sets foot at Yokohama. [. .] they seem to him to see everything topsy-turvy. [. .] Intellectually, at least, their attitude sets gravity at defiance. For to the mind’s eye their world is one huge, comical antithesis of our own. What we regard intuitively in one way from our standpoint, they as intuitively observe in a diametrically opposite manner from theirs. To speak backwards, write backwards, read backwards, is but the abcof their contrariety.2 An anecdote recounted by the art historian YASHIRO Yukio about the Heiji Tale Scroll will suffice to illustrate Lowell’s observation. The Scroll depicts the so-called Heiji disturbance that occurred in Kyoto in 1159. One evening, when he was giving a series of lectures on Japanese Art History at Harvard, an old professor of aesthetics confessed to Yashiro that, as a Westerner, he had naturally thought that the scroll must begin on the left. So he used to explain to his students that the soldier at the top of the procession was the symbolic herald of the entire epic.

Excerpt from Queer Compulsions: Race, Nation, and Sexuality in the Affairs of Yone Noguchi Journal Issue
Title: Excerpt from Queer Compulsions: Race, Nation, and Sexuality in the Affairs of Yone Noguchi Journal Issue: Journal of Transnational American Studies, 4(1) Author: Sueyoshi, Amy, San Francisco State University Publication Date: 2012 Permalink: http://escholarship.org/uc/item/2j9627xk Author Bio: Amy Sueyoshi is Associate Professor jointly appointed in Ethnic Studies and Sexuality Studies at San Francisco State University. Keywords: Yone Noguchi, Queer, Transnational Local Identifier: acgcc_jtas_12817 Abstract: Amy Sueyoshi’s Queer Compulsions: Race, Nation, and Sexuality in the Affairs of Yone Noguchi is a fascinating study of the writings and character of the transnational Japanese-born poet Yone Noguchi during his years in the United States, as seen through the prism of his interlocking sexual/ romantic affairs with western writer Charles Warren Stoddard, historian Ethel Armes, and editor Léonie Gilmour (a liaison that produced the famed sculptor Isamu Noguchi). Sueyoshi’s detective work, matched with her sensitive analysis, allows readers to grasp the complicated ways that race, class, and “exoticism” inform intimate relations.

Ezra Pound, Imagism, and Japanese Poetics
Chapter4 5 Ezra Pound, Imagism, and Japanese Poetics 1 It is commonplace to say that imagism played a crucial role in poetic modernism and that Ezra Pound, more than anyone else, put this poetics to practice in the 1910s. Yet imagism still remains a somewhat cloudy topic. Many discussions content themselves with restatements of Pound’s celebrated essay on vorticism, published in September 1914 (“Vorticism” 461–71). Even Hugh Kenner, the most eminent critic of Pound, says, “The history of the Imagist Movement is a red herring.” He admonishes one “to keep one’s eyes on Pound’s texts, and avoid generalities about Imagism” (Kenner 58). In his “Vorticism” essay, Pound acknowledged for the first time in his career his indebtedness to the spirit of Japanese poetry in gen- eral and the technique of hokku, an older term of haiku, in particular. Among the Poundians, and there have been many in the East and in the West who have tried to reconstruct the historical set of circum- stances in which Pound moved, Earl Miner gives the best account of the profound influences that Japanese poetry had on Pound’s early writing. It is Miner who offers the best annotated evidence that the sources for Pound’s interest in Japanese poetics were partly provided by Pound’s fellow Imagists, such as T. E. Hulme, F. S. Flint, and Richard Aldington.1 It is Miner as well who most frequently comments on the role Yone Noguchi played in the introduction and interpretation of Japa- nese poetry to the English audience during the early decades of the 70 Haiku and Modernist Poetics twentieth century.2 As noted earlier, Noguchi was indeed a well-known bilingual Japanese and American poet, who by 1915 had published not only books of criticism widely read in England and America (The Spirit of Japanese Poetry and The Spirit of Japanese Art), but also sev- eral collections of his own English poems.
