The Travelling Muse Cathay and the Influence of Chinese Classical Poems on Ezra Pound＇s Poetics＊

This paper intends to study Ezra Pound＇s early poetics and his modemist poetry through a close research of the Eastern elements in the shaping process of his poetics and the significance and influence of his poetic thoughts on the American New Poetry Movement. In order to clarify the essence of Pound＇s early poetics under the influence of Chinese classical poems, the paper starts from the discussion of the influence of Cathay （1915） and his translation of Cathay; then it provides a detailed analysis of the relationship between Chinese classical poems and Pound＇s creation; and finally it has given an analysis of ＂In a Station of the Metro＂. Pound absorbed different poetic concepts from all of them and transformed his poetry from the conventional Romanticism to the innovative Modemism. What Pound innovated in the poetry composition is of great importance if the new era wishes to shake off the banality and out-of-date tradition in literature. Pound changed a whole generation of poets and set a good example for those who desire to write in a new way

The Major Western Cultural Influences on the Incubating Process of Ezra Pound＇s Early Poetics

This paper intends to study Ezra Pound＇s early poetics and his modernist poetry through a close research of the various elements in the shaping process of his poetics, and the significance and influence of his poetic thoughts on the American New Poetry Movement. It studies firstly the early translations and romantic lyrics of Pound, trying to demonstrate that part of the influence on his early poetics is from the Western traditional cultural inheritance and that the emphasis on musicality that Pound inherited from traditional forms of poetry turns out to be one of the major principles that Pound advocates in his early poetics; then it comes to the discussion of the new translation concepts and poetics in ＂The Seafarer＂ （1911）, which is a great work Pound translated based on an Old English poem; next this paper will focus on the influence of Robert Browning＇s dramatic monologues and Yeats＇ Symbolism on Pound＇s transition from subjectivity to objectivity.

东西互鉴:胡适诗学与意象主义关系再考察

胡适诗学致力于意象的构建与运用,主张以白话入诗,推崇朴实简约的诗风,追求诗体大解放。这与同时代大洋彼岸由埃兹拉·庞德引领的意象派主张有诸多相似之处。基于跨文化的视角,我们不难发现,这两个文学事件间的关系实际上源远流长,彼此遥相呼应,构成了一道特殊的文学景观。胡适的诗学思想是其中国基础、美国经验以及意象主义者的中国想象这三重资源碰触、融合的结果,是东西互鉴的产物,是中美文学、文化交流双向性特点的典型呈现。

庞德是新历史主义者吗?——全球化时代的诗歌与诗学(英文)

本文探讨了庞德的诗学与新历史主义批评方法论之间的亲缘类同性。这一类同性不是简单地归于庞德与新历史主义之间的关系,而是作为一种结构性原则存在于各自的作品之中:无论在庞德的诗歌中还是在新历史主义的批评著作中,大量材料组合模式常常体现了透明细节之间存在的明显的亲缘类同性。当我们关注另一层次上的相似性时,这一结构模式所具有的更为深广的涵义更加明显:庞德和新历史主义的著作都相应地具有全球性,两者都倾向于使用透明细节来展示社会或文化的宏大图景———按照庞德的说法,即要用“密集的细节”来捕捉不断复现的根本性的文明结构;按照新历史主义的说法,即要将文本线索的微小结构置于显微镜下以展示“整个艺术家与整一化的社会之间壮观的对峙”图景。这种对于从地区性细节走向全球性宏景的关注把庞德和新历史主义置于当前全球化话语的中心。庞德毕生致力于设计一种泛文化蓝图的努力与近来新历史主义朝文化可动性研究的转向进一步表明,新历史主义与庞德不仅有着相同的文化诗学观,而且有着相同的诗歌观,即诗歌可以跨文化传播和交流其意义。

庞德对中华文化的改编——一个新历史主义视角

庞德有关中华文化的译介作品历来被多数学者冠以"不忠""乱译",乃至"帝国主义的产物"之名,从而引起学界对其文化身份的争议,即东方主义与汉学主义之争。本文从新历史主义视角出发,在文本研究与历史语境相结合的前提下,重新审视庞德的译介作品。从文本的历史性与历史的文本性两个维度出发,分别结合经济与政治语境探讨《诗章》《华夏集》等作品中的历史元素,从而更深刻地认识庞德的文化身份及改编行为的本质。庞德以"汉学"为体,建构起自身的理想王国,自觉地践行时代赋予的使命。
