	Ernest Fenollosa, Ezra Pound, Chinese
		In so far as Fenollosa was fighting to protect poetry from what he viewed as the stifling palm of a grammarian's commandment, one may sympathize full-heartedly with him.
		Quite contrary to Fenollosa's view, the vast majority of the primitives whose pictorial origin is determinable are pictures of objects, and are translatable as nouns.
		The poems in Cathay, translated by Pound "from the notes of the late Ernest Fenollosa, and the decipherings of the Professors Mori and Ariga" (1915), are given a conventional interpretation.

	On "The River-Merchant's Wife: A Letter"
		But in one respect, the "moping poet" of Pound's version can be seen as a piece of Browningesque irony, in that the court-poet, waiting for the imperial nomination of a theme for composition, heard the nightingales' singing as "aimless" because he was not free to respond to it or even to take notice of it.
		In Fenollosa's notes, as in his Chinese original, the line reads: when her hair was "first" cut across her forehead, and speaks of a cheerful memory of the beginning of youth.
		Fenollosa had translated the poem's last lines "For I will go out to meet [you], not caring that the way be far.

	The River Merchant's Wife: A Letter Summary & Essays - Ezra Pound
		Pound called the poems in English which resulted from the Fenollosa manuscripts "translations," but as such they are held in contempt by most scholars of Chinese language and literature.
		Pound's study of the Fenollosa manuscripts led to his preoccupation with the Chinese ideogram (a written symbol for an idea or object) as a medium for poetry.
		In fact, he realized that Chinese poets had long been aware of the image as the fundamental principle for poetic composition that he himself was beginning to formulate.

		This new garden will be associated with Ernest and Mary Fenollosa, the art historians who received the highest award ever presented to a foreigner by the Emperor of Japan for their contribution to Japanese art history.

	The Chinese Written Character as a Medium For Poetry
		Note: While Fenollosa's essay did not appear on Ginsberg's original reading list, this essay exerted a formative influence on many writers who appeared on the list, particularly Ezra Pound, William Carlos Williams, and William Burroughs.
		Some of Fenollosa's notions of how the Chinese language works have been subsequently discredited by linguists, but his ideas remain crucial for understanding the Beats and the "Naropa school" of poetry, and these writers' use of the concrete image.
		There is no concrete picture in English, and poets could learn from Chinese to present image detail: and out of that Pound heiroglyph rose the whole practice of imagism...

		In his search through unknown art Fenollosa, coming upon unknown motives and principles unrecognized in the West, was already led into many modes of thought since fruitful in "new" western painting and poetry.
		Curiously enough, a few weeks later Edmond Dulac, who is of a totally different tradition, sat here, giving an impromptu panegyric on the elements of Chinese art, on the units of composition, drawn from the written characters.
		He did not use Professor Fenollosa’s own words, he said "bamboo" instead of "rice." He said the essence of the bamboo is in a certain way it grows, they have this in their sign for bamboo, all designs of bamboo proceed from it.

	JOHN LA FARGE 1835
		Ernest Fenollosa later described taking La Farge to the Daitokuji Temple in Kyoto to see the famous painting by Mokkei, which showed Kwannon seated in a rocky cave, with water washing at her feet.
		"The old priest was delighted to have it specially brought out for such a sage," Fenollosa recalled.
		La Farge, devout Catholic as he is, could hardly restrain a bending of his head as he muttered, 'Raphael."' Given this bias towards a synthesis of Oriental and Western ideas, it is not surprising that La Farge's Kwannon has a rather Western appearance, merging the Japanese deity with the Madonna of Roman Catholicism.

	The Chinese Written Character as a Medium for Poetry
		This important and much disputed essay edited by Ezra Pound from the manuscript of Ernest Fenollosa (published in Instigations, London, 1920) has since gone through several editions, despite the ridicule of such sinologists as Professor George Kennedy of Yale who called it “a small mass of confusion.”
		The old theory as to the nature of the Chinese written character (which Pound and Fenollosa followed) is that the written character is ideogrammic- a stylized picture of the thing or concept it represents.
		The opposing theory (which prevails today among scholars) is that the character may have had pictorial origins in prehistoric times but that these origins have been obscured in all but a few very simple cases, and that in any case native writers don’t have the original pictorial meaning in mind as they write.

		The first response of the Japanese was open-hearted acceptance, and in 1876 the Technological Art School was opened, employing Italian instructors to teach Western methods.
		The second response was a pendulum swing in the opposite direction spearheaded by Okakura Kakuzo and the American Ernest Fenollosa, who encouraged Japanese artists to retain traditional themes and techniques while creating works more in keeping with contemporary taste.
		Out of these two poles of artistic theory developed Yoga (Western-style painting) and Nihonga (Japanese painting), categories that remain valid to the present day.
