Modernist poetry
Ezra Pound's 1913 Imagist Manifesto aimed to liberate poetry from strict rhythms and use free verse. It emphasized the juxtaposition of images and economy of words, with the poet acting as a medium rather than a personality. It replaced narrative content with a new, alogical flux of thoughts and sensations in the European style and sensibility of Futurism, Dadaism, and Symbolism. The same themes appeared in poetry and prose, with history and myth seen as meaningless chaos. One way to rationalize chaos was through the use of myths projected onto the modern landscape. Modernist poets also rejected pastoral themes in favor of urban settings like London depicting cultural and social decline.

Modernist period in english
Modernist literature originated in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as writers felt they needed a new form to express their ideologies. Modernist works experimented with form and style, using techniques like stream of consciousness and irony. Modernism is characterized by a break from tradition and a denial of absolute truth, emphasizing individual experience over history and institutions. Some key modernist authors included Virginia Woolf, Ezra Pound, Richard Aldington, and Katherine Anne Porter.
Virginia woolf
Virginia Woolf was a British writer and central figure of the Bloomsbury Group known for her modernist novels. She suffered several emotional traumas in her youth. Her most famous work, Mrs. Dalloway, explores a day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway and serves as a portrayal of 1920s British society after World War I through the use of stream of consciousness narrative. Woolf lived in several homes throughout her life, including in Richmond where she wrote Mrs. Dalloway.
Modernism (W.B. Yeats & T.S. Eliot)
Modernism emerged in response to new theories that destabilized traditional views of humanity. Freud, Marx, and Darwin challenged ideas of human rationality, independence, and superiority in nature. This caused a crisis of values and uncertainty. Modernist works reflected this by distorting forms, breaking norms, and focusing on disjointed experiences. Prominent modernist authors and artists like T.S. Eliot, Virginia Woolf, and Picasso experimented with stream of consciousness, fragmentation, and abstract forms to capture this unsettled time.
Modernism in American Prose
Modernism in American literature occurred between 1914-1945. This period saw experimentation in poetic form from influential American poets like Ezra Pound, T.S. Eliot, and Langston Hughes. Pound championed new poetic approaches and was a link between the U.S. and Britain. Eliot had a revolutionary impact with his poetry and essays. Hughes incorporated blues, spirituals, and folkways into his poetry and published numerous black anthologies.
W. B. Yeats, "The Second Coming"
1) The poem depicts a world that is falling into disorder and chaos. Images of a falcon flying away from its handler and a "blood-dimmed tide" drowning innocence are used to represent this breakdown of traditional structures.
2) The narrator has a vision of a mysterious beast, with the body of a lion and head of a man, that seems to herald some kind of ominous change rather than the Christian vision of the Second Coming.
3) The poem presents a darker and more pessimistic view of the future as the speaker questions what kind of "rough beast" is heading to Bethlehem to be born, suggesting the end of the old world order and the birth of some unknown threat

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

Origin and development of drama renaissance to modern
- 1. Origin and Development of Drama Renaissance to Modern Elizabethan and Jacobean< One of the great flowerings of drama in England occurred in the 16th and 17th centuries. Many of these plays were written in verse, particularly iambic pentameter. In addition to Shakespeare, such authors as Christopher Marlowe, Thomas Middleton, and Ben Jonson were prominent playwrights during this period. As in the medieval period, historical plays celebrated the lives of past kings, enhancing the image of the Tudor monarchy. Authors of this period drew some of their storylines from Greek mythology and Roman mythology or from the plays of eminent Roman playwrights such as Plautus and Terence. Modern and postmodern< The pivotal and innovative contributions of the 19th-century Norwegian dramatist Henrik Ibsen and the 20th-century German theatre practitioner Bertolt Brecht dominate modern drama; each inspired a tradition of imitators, which include many of the greatest playwrights of the modern era. The works of both playwrights are, in their different ways, both modernist and realist, incorporating formal experimentation, meta- theatricality, and social critique. In terms of the traditional theoretical discourse of genre, Ibsen's work has been described as the culmination of "liberal tragedy", while Brecht's has been aligned with an historicised comedy. Other important playwrights of the modern era include August Strindberg, Anton Chekhov, Frank Wedekind, Maurice Maeterlinck, Federico García Lorca, Eugene O'Neill, Luigi Pirandello, George Bernard Shaw, Ernst Toller, Vladimir Mayakovsky, Arthur Miller, Tennessee Williams, Jean Genet, Eugène Ionesco, Samuel Beckett, Harold Pinter, Friedrich Dürrenmatt, Dario Fo, Heiner Müller, and Caryl Churchill.
