埃 兹 拉 庞 德
Ezra Pound
埃兹拉·庞德在英美现代诗坛和评坛上无可非 议是最有影响的人物,他对第一次世界大战后兴 起的现代文学运动的一代青年有着巨大的影响, 几乎是一位传奇式的人物。
庞德生于爱达荷洲,早年在宾夕法尼亚大学学 习.毕业时他不但精通英文文法和文学,而且掌握 了九种外语,22岁时在印第安纳的一所大学任教 授。由于他生活放荡,不久被解职,开始漂流他 乡。1908年来到伦敦并结识了著名爱尔兰诗人 W.B.叶芝。1912年他同几位青年诗人发起了意象 主义运动,成为英美新诗运动的积极倡导者。作 为一位诗人和诗歌理论家,他不但推动传播意象 技巧的新发明,而且还在探索盎格鲁-撒克逊,普 罗旺斯,汉语,日语及拉丁语诗歌并不断充实创 新,他的大多数杰作实际上是这些古老传统诗的 编译或再创作
Light rain is on the light dust. 渭城朝雨浥轻尘
庞德把握住了诗人诗歌语言中的图画性。 用“light”这个包含着清、轻、亮色含义的词
来点写出“雨”和“尘” 顿时就把原诗所要表达的语境刻画出来
“The willows of the inn-yard will be going greener and greener”
其中把“阳关”译成了“the gates of Go”
河西走廊尽头的阳关,和它北面的玉门关相对,从汉代以 来一直是内地通向西域的交通要塞,在盛唐人心中,从军或出 使阳关,是一种令人向往的壮举,“西出阳关”也因此而成为 中国文学一个常见文化意象,被人反复咏颂,具有了丰富的文 化意义。西出阳关在中国读者心中唤起的那种联想遥远、广裹、
二、 翻译是独立于原作的创作 对庞德来说,除了“阐释性翻译”外,还有“另一种翻
译”。“有时‘译者’显然是在创作新诗”,走出旧的逻辑, 回到当代,通过译语文化的主流诗学或译者的诗学进行调试。 这样,翻译就被视作改写,译作独立于原作,在译语文化中赋 予了新的意义。

The Cantos of Ezra Pound
• Portions of Pound's major work, Cantos, were first published in 1925; the first complete English edition of all the published segments was issued in 1970 as The Cantos of Ezra Pound. • The Cantos by Ezra Pound is a long, incomplete poem in 120 sections, each of which is a canto. • Most of it was written between 1915 and 1962. • The most striking feature of the text is the inclusion of Chinese characters as well as quotations in European languages other than English.
Legacy
• Even though many people thought politics and writing should be separated, Pound acquired many enemies in the latter period of his life because of his support for Mussolini. • Pound championed and in some cases edited the works of several avant-garde authors writing in England, including the Anglo-American poet T. S. Eliot, the Irish poet William Butler Yeats, and the Irish novelist James Joyce. • Pound also set forth the theories behind the literary movement of imagism.

Pound’s
Ezra Weston Loomis Pound (October 30, 1885 – November 1, 1972) was an American expatriate poet, critic and intellectual who was a major figure of the Modernist movement in the first half of the 20th century. He is generally considered the poet most responsible for defining and promoting a modernist aesthetic in poetry.[1] The critic Hugh Kenner said of Pound upon meeting him: "I suddenly knew that I was in the presence of the center of modernism."[2] In the early teens of the twentieth century, he opened a fruitful exchange of work and ideas between British and American writers, and was famous for the generosity with which he advanced the work of such major contemporaries as Robert Frost, William Carlos Williams, Marianne Moore, H. D., Ernest Hemingway, Wyndham Lewis, and especially T. S. Eliot. Pound also had a profound influence on the Irish writers W. B. Yeats and James Joyce. His own significant contributions to poetry begin with his promotion of Imagism, a movement in poetry which derived its technique from classical Chinese and Japanese poetry—stressing clarity, precision, and economy of language, and forgoing traditional rhyme and meter in order to, in Pound's words, "compose in the sequence of the musical phrase, not in the sequence of the metronome."[3] His later work, spanning nearly fifty years, focused on his epic poem The Cantos.

Ezra Pound


• Imagism: it’s a poetic movement of England and the U.S flourished from 1909 to 1917. The movement insists on the creation of images in poetry by “the direct treatment of the thing” and the economy of wording. The leaders of this movement were Ezra Pound and Amy Lowell艾米•洛威尔.
The doctrine and poetic practice of a small but influential group of American and British poets calling themselves imagists bewtween 1909-1917. Led at first by Ezra Pound, then after his defection to vorticism by Amy Lowell. Imagism is characterized by the 3 principles: 1. Direct treatment of "the thing", whether subjective or objective 2. To use absolutely no word that does not contribute to the presentation 3. As regards rhythm, to compose in the sequence of the musical phrase, not in the sequence of a metronome节拍器
