Through her analyses, ong>theong> author traces a new direction in Post-Modernist poetry to Pound, whose legacy is present throughout this volume, even in ong>essaysong> not specifically devoted to him. Professor Perloff finds that ong>theong> Symbolist elements that Yeats rejected - fragments, purely metrical or visual impressions, ong>andong> ong>theong>oretical concepts - became increasingly important to later poets. She also argues that ong>theong> Romantic ong>andong> Modernist cult of ong>theong> personality has given way to a denial of ong>theong> authoritative ego. ong>Theong>se developments, combined with oong>theong>r cultural influences which Perloff identifies, such as ong>theong> art of ong>theong> Italian Futurists, lead to a new strain in poetry.
