Student Activity: Toward a More Sustainable Campus through Innovative Design and Practical Application
At the Department of English Language Dr. Bakhtiar Sabir Hama presented a seminar entitled “Imagism and Imagery in the Selected Poems of Early Imagist Poets” on Tuesday, February 19.
Imagism was an early 20th century literary movement and a reaction against the Romantic and Victorian mainstreams. Imagism is known as an Anglo-American literary movement since it borrows from the English and American verse style of modern poetry. The seminar explores imagism and studies the intrinsic literary features of some poems to show how the authors combine all the elements such as style, sentence structure, figures of speech and poetic diction to paint concrete and abstract images in the mind of the readers. For this seminar two poems: In a Station of the Metro by Ezra Pound and Amy Lowell’s November were selected for discussion.
