Who founded Imagism?

It is a school of modern British and American poetry, which came into being on the eve of World War I and was founded by Hume, a British critic and poet. His first imagist poem was published in the autumn of 1908. The following year, a new glory of imagism-Williams was established in London. In his five-volume poem Patterson, Williams developed his own objectivism art, expressing more meanings with straightforward and ordinary language and vivid and simple metaphors. Participants included American poet Pound and others. 19 13, they issued a three-point manifesto of Imagism, demanding direct expression of subjective and objective things, deleting all words that are not conducive to "expression" and replacing traditional laws with spoken rhythm. Imagism came into being as a rebellion against the late romanticism that dominated the British and American poetry circles at that time. Its ideological basis is Bergson's intuitionism, and it is also influenced by symbolism, China's traditional poetry and Japanese haiku. It has been pointed out that artists capture images in life through intuition, and their poems are often fragmented in nature, with small systems and small capacity. During1914-1918, Imagist * * * edited and published four selected imagist poems. Although this school soon disintegrated, it had a great influence on modern English poetry in terms of adopting spoken language, free style and creating images.
