BI. Amy Lowell

30. Watanabe, Shôichi. ‘Imagist and Haiku—with Special Reference to Amy Lowell’. Eibungaku to eigogaku (Sophia University) 6 (1967): 108-30.

A lively and contentious work that moves from well-observed notes about Lowell’s ‘inadequate information of Japan’ and ‘essentially not Haiku-like’ poems to larger points about the ‘homogenization’ of culture and ‘standardization of civilization’ in the twentieth century.
