Description
An account of the resource
The phrase 'Make it New' is frequently used in defining a key feature of modernism – its novelty – and is often regarded as influential and foundational in the development of modernist aesthetics. Yet when Ezra Pound employed the phrase for the first time in 1928, modernism’s major works had already appeared, and decades would pass before 'Make It New' gained significance and became a catchphrase and slogan. 'Make It New' was Pound's rendering of a passage in Da Xue, a historical Chinese text. Influenced by Christian belief as well, 'Make It New' became a model of change, of renaissance and renewal, in which the new is not simply a return to the old. Drawing on the work of those who have gone before, Making It New is a process of historical recycling, quotation, and re-arrangement.
In this exhibition, you will see examples of modernist writers Making It New, and it focuses on modernists who re-inscribe medieval elements, including medieval forms, themes, and narratives. It highlights the holdings of the University of Otago Libraries, in particular the treasures of the Charles Brasch collection. Please enjoy.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
In this volume, Ezra Pound rediscovers poets and traditions from various cultures and times. Pound is particularly fascinated with the troubadours and poetry written in the Provençal language. He admires the condensed, direct expression of these poets, their values and ideals, seeing a place for these medieval values in the modern world. He includes essays on the troubadours, Arnaut Daniel, Guido Cavalcanti, Elizabethan Classicists, making their poetic traditions new.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Imagist poets isolate a single image and reveal its essence. Pound defined an image as ‘that which presents an intellectual and emotional complex in an instant of time.’ The poet renders the image precisely, in clear, direct, exact language and in rhythms composed in individualised musical phases, not conventional metres and forms. Between 1914 and 1917, Imagist poets published four anthologies, and many of the contributors to those volumes appear in this 1930 anthology.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Invited to illustrate a new edition of Shakespeare’s <em>Timon of Athens</em>, Wyndham Lewis produced a series of striking Vorticist pieces, including this plate for Act I. Although the proposed edition never materialised, reproductions of Lewis’ works were published instead as a portfolio. Inspired in part by Cubism, Futurism, and Expressionism, their bold lines lean towards geometric abstraction. In 2003, the project’s original purpose was realised when LaNana Creek Press (Nacogdoches, Texas) brought together for the first time Shakespeare’s text and Lewis’ images.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
T. S. Eliot believed that Pound was more responsible than any other individual ‘for the twentieth-century revolution in poetry.’ In <em>Ripostes</em>, Pound drew attention to the Imagist movement, developing that style in his own work and appending several poems by T. E. Hulme as examples of this new poetics. He included his translation of the Old English poem ‘The Seafarer,’ upsetting some readers by writing a poem based on his own personal interpretation of the medieval work rather than a literal translation of it.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
On a visit to London in 1938, Pound posed for this portrait. Arriving at Lewis’ house, he ‘flung himself at full length’ into Lewis’ best chair and ‘did not move for two hours by the clock.’ In the portrait, now housed in the Tate Gallery, Pound reclines in a chair, his eyes closed, face restful, and body motionless. Beside him is a table; on which a folded newspaper lies and assorted ashtrays sit. Behind the table, a painted canvas is propped against the wall. Lewis’ crayon sketch of Pound’s head in Plate 46 is a study for the oil portrait in Plate 47.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Described by T. S. Eliot as ‘the inventor of Chinese poetry for our time,’ Pound brought classical Chinese poetry to a modern English-speaking audience. As with the troubadours and Provençal poets, Pound revived Chinese poetic practice, inventively interpreting the poetry and revealing his own poetic sensibility and linguistic gifts. Using Ernest Fenollosa’s notes, Pound ‘translated’ poems by ‘Rihaku’ (Li Bai or Li Po) into elegantly simple English. Pound’s graceful poems are collected in this handsome volume, <em>Cathay</em>.

Influenced by Christian belief as well, 'Make It New' became a model of change, of renaissance and renewal, in which the new is not simply a return to the old. Drawing on the work of those who have gone before, Making It New is a process of historical recycling, quotation, and re-arrangement.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Although he would later refer to this volume of poetry as ‘a collection of stale creampuffs,’ <em>Lume Spento</em> (<em>With Tapers Quenched</em>) is Pound’s first collection of poetry; its dramatic lyrics examples of Pound’s early poetic style. The title is a phrase borrowed from Canto III of Dante’s <em>Purgatorio</em>, and the poems reflect Pound’s fascination with the poetry of the troubadours.

In ‘The Flame,’ Pound makes new a medieval vision of <em>fin amor</em> (fine or courtly love): this mystic love transcends time and space, making lovers immortal and granting them visionary knowledge.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Richard Aldington knew Pound and Eliot personally. He and Pound persuaded Harriet Weaver to appoint Eliot as Pound’s successor at <em>The Egoist</em>, and Aldington worked with Pound to get Eliot out of his day job so that he could write full-time. Years later, Aldington wrote this lecture on Pound and Eliot. In it, he criticises Eliot for his pessimism and for borrowing from sources without acknowledging them. Here, Aldington discusses Dante and the epigraph in <em>The Waste Land</em>.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Like Pound and James Joyce, Eliot was greatly influenced by Dante’s works, particularly <em>The Divine Comedy</em>. He considered Dante’s poetry ‘the one universal school of style’ for writing poetry in any language; no other poet ‘stands so firmly as a model for all poets.’ In Dante’s writing, Eliot found ‘lessons for the present time,’ and he admired the way Dante combined style with spiritual direction. In his own work, Eliot attempted to translate the medieval into the modern in order to renovate, restore, and renew.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
In Canto III of the <em>Inferno</em>, Dante describes the dark and desolate plain which lies between Hell’s gate and the river Acheron. Upon this plain, the souls of the damned tumultuously wail and cry and futilely chase after a whirling banner; having lived lives devoid of spiritual meaning, they cannot cross into death’s true realms. Drawn from Dante and reflecting the spiritual emptiness of modern existence, Eliot’s hollow men gather in ‘the dead land’ beside the river but cannot cross into ‘death’s other kingdom.’

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
In contrast to Dante’s wailing hordes, Eliot’s hollow men are quiet and paralysed. Created in the aftermath of WWI, they mirror modern society: people damaged by war and alienated from God; a culture crumbling and fragmented. The poem is interpreted in this work by Patricia Heidenheimer. On a card included in the slipcase, she writes, ‘<em>The Hollow Men</em> eerily foreshadows the genocide, war, and spiritual emptiness of the twentieth century.’ Heidenheimer’s images are printed from collagraph plates and were ‘conceived as an epitaph for the twentieth century.’

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
When Louis MacNeice delivered the Clark lectures at Cambridge in 1963, he discussed the nature of parable in both his own poetry and a wide range of literary texts, from Spenser’s <em>Faerie Queene</em> to Beckett’s <em>Waiting for Godot</em>. Attracted to such ‘double-level writing,’ MacNeice believed that ‘The best [works] are written on two or more planes at once.’ In such writing, the author creates an enigmatic narrative world which has a meaningful relationship to our real world.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
While it is written in plain language, Edwin Muir’s poetry is often parabolic. When he moved with his family from Orkney to Glasgow, Muir left behind unspoilt Eden and journeyed into the fallen world and was disturbed by what he found there. In his writing, he creates narratives of journeys and labyrinths, good and evil, alienation and paradox, life and death. In <em>Varieties of Parable</em>, MacNeice comments on the metaphorical nature of Muir’s journeys and places and the ‘dream quality’ of his most successful poems.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Parables allow writers to address political concerns indirectly in parallel fictional worlds. In <em>The Trial</em>, Franz Kafka tackles injustice and bureaucratic labyrinths in his nightmarish story of a man who is arrested and brought to trial for a crime which is never revealed. Kafka’s hero cannot reach the officials responsible for his prosecution, and he is mystified by the absurd Kafkaesque proceedings. The text in this edition was translated by Edwin and Willa Muir.

Description
An account of the resource
The phrase 'Make it New' is frequently used in defining a key feature of modernism – its novelty – and is often regarded as influential and foundational in the development of modernist aesthetics. Yet when Ezra Pound employed the phrase for the first time in 1928, modernism’s major works had already appeared, and decades would pass before 'Make It New' gained significance and became a catchphrase and slogan. 'Make It New' was Pound's rendering of a passage in Da Xue, a historical Chinese text. Influenced by Christian belief as well, 'Make It New' became a model of change, of renaissance and renewal, in which the new is not simply a return to the old. Drawing on the work of those who have gone before, Making It New is a process of historical recycling, quotation, and re-arrangement.
In this exhibition, you will see examples of modernist writers Making It New, and it focuses on modernists who re-inscribe medieval elements, including medieval forms, themes, and narratives. It highlights the holdings of the University of Otago Libraries, in particular the treasures of the Charles Brasch collection. Please enjoy.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
MacNeice suggests that parables often take the form of a quest, in which case Samuel Beckett’s absurdist tragicomedy is ‘a static quest.’ As depicted in the production shot on the cover, Beckett’s two tramps, Vladimir and Estragon, wait and wait for Godot to arrive but he fails to show in either act. <em>Waiting for Godot</em> is, in Vivian Mercier’s words, ‘a play in which nothing happens, twice.’ Beckett’s characters often find themselves in situations that will repeat endlessly and have been compared to personified vices and virtues in medieval mystery plays.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
For two decades, Louis MacNeice worked for the BBC, writing and producing radio programmes. In ‘The Dark Tower: A Radio Parable Play’ (1946), he re-writes the Childe Roland romance for a post-WWII audience. The mother has already sacrificed her elder sons on this dangerous quest, and now, with talk of duty and sacrifice, she sends her youngest son, Roland, to face the evil of the Dark Tower. MacNeice’s ‘Dark Tower’ first aired on 26 January 1946, with music by Benjamin Britten.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
‘The Ebony Tower’ is a modern-day medieval romance. The story’s knight is David Williams, a young English painter and art critic who journeys to the old woods of Brittany to interview an older painter Henry Breasley. The epigraph connects Fowles’ story to the Breton lai by quoting lines from <em>Yvain</em>, a twelfth-century romance by Chrétien de Troyes. David’s dangerous quest takes him through strange and magical places and involves ritual tests and a dark tower.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
In 1926, William Faulkner wrote, illustrated, and bound <em>Mayday</em> as a gift for his girlfriend Helen Baird. Parodying medieval romance, Faulkner follows Sir Galwyn of Arthgyl as he seeks the beautiful girl who appeared to him in a vision during his chapel vigil. With Hunger and Pain as his constant companions, Sir Galwyn’s quest takes him to an enchanted forest. He slays a small dragon, encounters Time and Tristram, and briefly loves Yseult, Elys, and Aelia. This image shows the first page of text from Faulkner’s carefully handcrafted book.
