EZRA POUND
AND CONFUCIANISM
REMAKING HUMANISM IN
THE FACE OF MODERNITY
FENG LAN
In Ezra Pound and Confucianism, Feng
Lan
offers the first study of Ezra Pound s
project of establishing a Confucian
humanism as an alternative to Western
modernism. While Pound scholars are
familiar with the American poet s com¬
mitment to Confucianism, the question
of how it systematically shaped Pound s
thoughts has not been convincingly
answered.
Lan
shows that when con¬
fronted with what appeared to him a
dehumanising modern world, Pound
discovered in Confucianism possible
solutions to issues that he encountered
in language, politics, and religion,
which Western intellectual tradition as
a whole had failed to provide. By inte¬
grating Confucian doctrines with
received ideas from Western tradition,
Pound developed a humanist discourse
and brought it to bear on the historical
conditions of his time.
The result was a discourse charac¬
terized primarily by the following
beliefs: the human mind as the source
of creation, the individual s moral will
as the basis of truth and social order, the
human partnership with the world of
nature, the self-perfectibility of human
beings, and their innate capability for
internal transcendence in spiritual life.
Lan
examines the strategies with
which Pound reconstructed Confucianism
into a systematic modern discourse,
focusing on his controversial translation
of Confucian scriptures, his rethinking
of the nature of language and poetry,
his political theory of the individual
and the state, and his formulation of an
unorthodox spirituality.
Situating Pound s works in diverse
cultural, historical, and intellectual
contexts,
Lan
demonstrates that Pound s
humanism, despite its frequent diver¬
gence from the Confucian canon, gives
his poetry an ideological coherence
and asserts its relevance to the histori¬
cal and cross-cultural development of
Confucianism in modern times.
Feng
lan
is an assistant professor in the
Department of Modern Languages and
Linguistics at Florida State University.
