Description
East of Early Winters by Richard Wakefield (Evansville, IN: The University of Evansville Press, 2006) No period in the history of the arts more doggedly insisted on its concern with craft--its identification of artist with artisan--than did the Modernist period at the beginning of the twentieth century. And yet, at no time were the familiar features of craft less in evidence. The American poet Ezra Pound was wont to provide lists of "don'ts" and other prescriptions with the voice of the master craftsman, while his friend and colleague T S. Eliot had to publish a short apology and explanation, "Ezra Pound: His Metric and Poetry," precisely because meter--the formal cause of poetry--was so little in evidence in Pound's work. (1)
