In a Station of the Metro : ウィキペディア英語版 | In a Station of the Metro "In A Station of the Metro" is an Imagist poem by Ezra Pound published in 1913 in the literary magazine ''Poetry''.〔Axelrod, Steven Gould and Camille Roman, Thomas J. Travisano.''The New Anthology of American Poetry: Traditions and Revolutions, Beginnings to 1900''.Rutgers University Press (2003) p.663〕 In the poem, Pound describes a moment in the underground metro station in Paris in 1912; Pound suggested that the faces of the individuals in the metro were best put into a poem not with a description but with an "equation". Because of the treatment of the subject's appearance by way of the poem's own visuality, it is considered a quintessential Imagist text.〔 The poem was reprinted in Pound's collection ''Lustra'' in 1917, and again in the 1926 anthology ''Personae: The Collected Poems of Ezra Pound'', which compiled his early pre-Hugh Selwyn Mauberley works. ==The poem==
The poem contains only fourteen words. Pound was influential in the creation of Imagist poetry until he left the movement to embrace Vorticism in 1914. Pound, though briefly, embraced Imagism stating that it was an important step away from the verbose style of Victorian literature and suggested that it "is the sort of American stuff I can show here in Paris without its being ridiculed".〔Ayers, David. ''Modernsim: A Short Introduction''. Blackwell (2004) p.2〕 "In a Station of the Metro" is an early work of Modernist poetry as it attempts to "break from the pentameter", incorporates the use of visual spacing as a poetic device, and does not contain any verbs. 〔Barbarese, J.T. "Ezra Pound's Imagist Aesthetics: Lustra to Mauberley" ''The Columbia history of American poetry''Columbia University Press (1993) pp.307-308〕
