    Teaching American Literature: A Journal of Theory and Practice Winter 2008 (2:1) Visual Aid: Teaching H.D.'s Imagist Poetry with the Assistance of Henri Matisse Christa Baiada, Borough of Manhattan Community College, CUNY The mantra of the modernist movement, articulated by Ezra Pound, was "make it new." Unfortunately, students don't always know how to approach "new" styles of literature, especially poetry that itself daunts many students. As we've all observed, if not experienced for ourselves, modernist poetry, upon first encounter, can be especially intimidating. In the spirit of making it new, this poetry often appears obscure in its density, perspective, and complexity. Students may look at a poem like "The Red Wheel Barrow" and ask "how is this poetry?" Of course, this is precisely the question we want to work through with them, so this is good. On the other hand, the initial discomfort of students with modernism can develop into a resistance hard to tackle. This is a challenge I found especially difficult to address in my early attempts to teach the poems of H.D. at a small, suburban music college in Long Island, NY. For my first lesson at the start of a unit on modernism in an undergraduate 200-level, Introduction to Literature class, I would devote the entire period to H.D. because I believe that her work beautifully encapsulates many of the principles of modernism laid out by Pound in his seminal essay "A Retrospect." Though several of my students have been fans, or even writers, of poetry and most had artistic sensibilities, many were disconcerted in their first encounter with modernist poetry via H.D., and the malaise they felt would linger in the following weeks as we read additional modernist poets.

  • The Classical Mythology of Milton's English Poems
    YALE STUDIES IN ENGLISH ALBERT S. COOK, Editor VIII THE CLASSICAL MYTHOLOGY OF Milton's English poems CHARLES GROSVENOR OSGOOD, Ph.D. NEW YORK HENRY HOLT AND COMPANY igoo Ss9a Copyright, igoo, BY CHARLES GROSVENOR OSGOOD, Ph.D. J^ 7/SS TO PROFESSQR ALBERT S. COOK AND PROFESSOR THOMAS D. SEYMOUR — PREFACE The student who diligently peruses the lines of a great poem may go far toward a realization of its char- acter. He may appreciate, in a degree, its loveliness, strength, and direct hold upon the catholic truth of life. But he will be more sensitive to these appeals, and receive gifts that are richer and less perishable, accord- ing as he comprehends the forces by whose interaction the poem was produced. These are of two kinds the innate forces of the poet's character, and certain more external forces, such as, in the case of Milton, are represented by Hellenism and Hebraism. Their activ- ity is greatest where they meet and touch, and at this point their nature and measure are most easily dis- cerned. From a contemplation of the poem in its gene- sis one returns to a deeper understanding and enjoyment of it as a completed whole. The present study, though it deals with but one of the important cultural influ- ences affecting Milton, and with it but in part, endeav- ors by this method to deepen and clarify the apprecia- tion of his art and teaching. My interest in the present work has found support and encouragement in the opinions of Mr. Churton Collins, as expressed in his valuable book.

  • A Temple Wild Podcast Episode 7: the Nymphs of Ancient Greece Transcript You're Listening
    A Temple Wild Podcast Episode 7: The Nymphs of Ancient Greece https://atemplewild.com/podcast/nymphs Transcript You're listening to A Temple Wild: Episode 7: The Nymphs of Ancient Greece Hello and welcome to A Temple Wild, where we rediscover the myths of the ancient Greeks through the plants and landscapes that shaped them. My name is Ekstasy and in today's episode we're going to be discussing the nymphs of ancient Greece. In mainstream Greek mythology, meaning the stories that most people know about the ancients, I think the nymphs often take a backseat to the Olympian gods. They are beautiful maidens, usually seen accompanying the gods or playing minor roles in the famous myths. But for those of us who are seeking a deeper connection with Nature, and with the Mediterranean landscape specifically, I think the nymphs are actually in fact the most important beings of ancient Greek myth and plant lore. So what are they, really? Simply stated, they are nature spirits. They are responsible for growing, nurturing, and guarding the natural habitats, plants and animals within their realm. They are often associated with a specific mountain or a forest, a meadow or marsh, a freshwater source or the sea, or other natural region that occurs in the landscape. And they are also often tied with specific trees, plants, or even insects. There are unique names for the different types of nymphs: naiads are freshwater nymphs, nereids are spirits of the sea, oreiads are conifer nymphs, melissae, as you'll remember from an earlier podcast episode, are bee nymphs, there are dozens of names for different types of nymph...but despite their many names, all nymphs do seem to share a few characteristics, the most important one being that they are local entities, their essence and function is intimately tied to the very specific place that they inhabit.
