모더니즘, 여성성, 양성성: 에이취 디를 중심으로

Modernism, Femininity, and Bisexuality: Centering on H.D.

H.D.(Hilda Doolittle) has been a forgotten female modernist since she was marginalized from literary modernism. While she was an Imagist with Ezra Pound and Richard Aldington, the research on H.D. was not popular until 1980’s. In this context my essay examines H.D.’s “Notes on Thought and Vision,” “Helen,” and Ezra Pound’s “Psychology and Troubadours.” As in H.D.’s bisexuality and femininity represented in the jelly-fish metaphor, gender and sexuality are also dealt with in Pound’s spermatic brain. Eventually, by way of exploring H.D.’s modernism, femininity, and bisexuality, she is resituated as one of the legendary modernist writers.
