Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Anthology of Magazine Verse for 1918: And Year Book of American Poetry "To object to the conventionality of art in to believe in absolute realism, which, if possible, would be a science and not an art." - R. A. M. Stevenson. Three articles on poetry have been printed during the past year which have interested me because of the divergent points of view expressed. Of the three one only is safely and securely between the shoals of R. A. M. Stevenson´s statement, which I quote at the head of this introduction, and common sense. This is Mr. Brian Hooker´s "The Practical Use of Poetry," which appeared in the December (1917) issue of The Century Magazine. The other two articles are, "What is Poetry?" by Maxwell Bodenheim, in The New Republic for December 22, 1917, and "The Mechanism of Poetic Inspiration," by Conrad Aiken, in the North American Review for December, 1917. The article by Mr. Aiken, based upon the investigations of Nicolas Kostyleff´s book "Le Mecanisme Cerebrale de la Pensee," is an attempt to denude poetic inspiration of its mystery and to rationalize its origin according to certain psychological formulas in which the elements of thought and emotion can be reasoned with exactness.
