Intro to Modern Japanese Literature
Imagism is a movement in early 20th-century poetry that emphasizes precision of imagery, economy of language, and clear, sharp expressions of emotions and ideas. It seeks to create vivid images through concise language, often focusing on a single moment or object to evoke strong feelings and thoughts in the reader. This approach marks a departure from traditional forms and contributes significantly to contemporary trends and experimental forms in Japanese poetry.
