Introduction to image definition

Schools of modern western literature. At the beginning of the 20th century, young poets from Britain, America and other countries were formed in London. Influenced by oriental classical poetry, they advocate a "solid" style of writing and emphasize the use of objective and accurate images instead of subjective emotional catharsis.

Pound published a program in Poetry magazine, claiming that "image" should be described as "a collection of rationality and sensibility displayed in an instant", and that "accurate image" can enable the suspect to find its counterpart, requiring accurate observation, concrete and concise expression, no exaggeration, no generalization, easy use of words, informal theme and metrical liberation. This is a cliche and vague poem in Victorian England. Its characteristics of conciseness, poetic conciseness, concealment but susceptibility have had a great influence on the creation and criticism of modern European and American literature. However, the formality of its image in capacity and depth limits the expression of feelings.

Representative figures are Doolittle and Aldington.
