Coleman's Hatch, January 1915

 

Objectivity and again objectivity, and expression; no hindside-beforeness, no straddled adjectives (as 'addled mosses dank'), no Tennysonianness of speech; nothing – nothing that you couldn't, in some circumstance, in the stress of some emotion, actually say. Every literaryism, every book word, fritters away a scrap of the reader's patience, a scrap of his sense of your sincerity. When one really feels and thinks, one stammers with simple speech, it is only in the flurry, the shallow frothy excitement of writing, or the inebriety of a metre, that one falls into the easy – oh, how easy! – speech of books and poems that one has read. 1

1 1937. It should be realized that Ford Madox Ford had been hammering this point of view into me from the time I first met him (1908 or 1909) and that I owe him anything that I don't owe myself for having saved me from the academic influences than raging in London. – E.P. January 1937. Footnote from Harriet Monroe's A Poet's Life.   zurück
