| Summary: | Recent decades have seen a renaissance in the critical attention to the American expatriate modernist writer, H.D. Although she is best known for her participation in the Imagist movement in the 1910s, and her association with other modernists such as Ezra Pound and D.H. Lawrence, her oeuvre spans many decades and genres, culminating in her later epics Trilogy (1944–46) and Helen in Egypt (1961). Like many modernists, H.D. was interested in the potential of art to become a resource for cultural renewal and transformation. However, she did not see art as either a replacement for religion or subservient to it; but as a means to, and expression of, spiritual understanding. Read alongside religious poets such as T.S. Eliot and W.H. |
