Dirk:

"An 'Image' is that which presents an intellectual and emotional complex in
an instant of time"  Ezra Pound, "Literary Essays" edited by T. S, Eliot
page 4.  Not Imagiste, not Amygism but the Image (big I).

What more do you want?   The Image presents (a process) an intellectual and
emotional complex.  I begin to understand Pound's exasperation.  It is so
simple but requires intuition.

Please read Witemeyer with an empty mind.  Forget all that Imagiste stuff
for right now.  Forget everything you've been taught about Imagism.  Most of
what you've probably been taught is really Amygism.  Amygism is much easier
to teach since it has simple straight forward rules and is about
representing a thing, the image(little i), in words.  Imagism takes an
intuitive mind, is not straight forward and is not about things but rather a
very dynamic process.
