  Ultraist movement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ultraism forsook rhyme in exchange for nonconformist metrics and free verse, and adopted a free typographic layout of the poem in the page, attempting to fuse the plastic arts and poetry.
Ultraism was akin to the creacionismo of the Chilean poet Vicente Huidobro, who met with the Ultraists in their tertulias.
Huidobro proposed that a poem should always be a new object, distinct from the rest, which must be created "like nature creates a tree" — a position that implied freedom of the poem from reality, including the inner reality of the author.

MAXIMUM ULTRAISM does not call for converts; it is a challenge to all to establish themselves at extremes of their own.
A commitment to Ultraism signifies faith in the boundless fertility of the imagination and the endless possibilities of the universe.
In that case, an exhortation to Ultraism, such as this one, should not be read as an attempt to persuade people to choose one manner of committing themselves over another, but rather as a refutation of the alibis of moderation and deference to popular opinion.

The rhetoric of ultraism appears in many places, of course, including the war on drugs and the war on terror.
Really what happened in the 1840s was that conservatives argued that temperance and slavery were subject to the same ultraism, and so they used the same arguments against both antislavery and against ultra-temperance.
So, the key thing for the 1840s is not the ultraism, but the conservative response.

 Ultraism --  Britannica Concise Encyclopedia - The online encyclopedia you can trust!
Influenced by the emphasis on form of the French Symbolists and Parnassians, a distinguished coterie of avant-garde poets (ultraístas) produced verse that often defied objective analysis and gave the impression of a coldly intellectual experimentation.

Jorge Luis Borges introduced Ultraism to South America in 1921.

 Digital Soul Records: Splinterfaction Ultraism EP (DS02)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Focusing on the dance floor for the jazzy soul shuffle of the title track, Poynter looks to a more reflective pace with two home listening cuts, with Dutch artist Duplex lending his intricate, metallic touch on ‘Musical Intrigue’.
It isn’t the most innovative EP around, but in a period when most are content to pursue a more stripped down style, ‘Ultraism’ really stands out.
Written and produced by Mik Poynter, the "Ultraism" track is a beautiful symphonic arrangement of melodic overtones, moody chords, and crisp, complex percussion.

 VANGUARD AND GROUP OF 1927
Chilean Vicente Huidobro (1893-1948), resident in Spain, popularized poetry by Reverdy, Apollinaire or Mallarmé and helped authors as Guillermo de Torre (1900-1971) of Madrid, who collected his poems in a book called Helix (1923) and was one of the most keen literary critics.
Huidobro was also friend of Rafael Cansinos Assens (1883-1964) from Seville, who, in 1918 published Manifiest of Ultraism.
The most original achievement in his two next books -Swords as lips (1932) and Destruction or Love (1935) was knowledge of Surrealism, that appeared in Spain about 1930, when ultraism was being forgotten.

 SHQ Online :: Volume 018 Number 4 :: THE CONSTITUTION OF TEXAS, 1845
In reducing the age of representatives from twenty-five to twenty-one years, she was correcting an abnormality among constitutional provisions and conforming to type.
But Texas was still a frontier,—not so much a frontier as in 1836, not entirely under the influence of the pioneer, not completely given over to the “ultraism of the age,” but none the less youthful, confident of its capacity, and progressive in its views.
In addition to the Debates, published in Austin in 1845 (and hereafter cited as Debates), there is also Journals of the Convention that assembled in the City of Austin on the fourth of July, 1845, for the Purpose of Framing a Constitution for the State of Texas (Austin, 1845).

Two early influences were his grandmother, who was English (Borges learned to read English before Spanish), and his father's library.
Although Borges spent several years in Geneva before 1918, followed by a period in Spain where he first encountered a literary vanguard known as Ultraism, it was not until his return to Argentina in 1921 that his career really began.
He used the pages of several "little magazines" to promulgate the tenets of Ultraism which comprised the initial foundation for his writing.

Judge O’Neal is unquestionably a fanatic, in the widest extent of the term, and I regret that the Court had not assigned to some other member the writing of its opinion.
I believe him honest, but his ultraism evidently renders him an unsafe judge on all questions bearing directly or indirectly upon his own bigoted notions.
I deny that Christianity is a part of the Common Law as adopted by South Carolina, and I am sustained by reason, and by adjudicated cases, in South Carolina and elsewhere.

Were it not for its ultraism in politics, we should consider the Democratic Review the most valuable journal of the day.
And as to its embellishments, (for everything must be pictured into the world now-a-days,) we consider them of the most truly valuable kind, being accurate and well-executed portraits of eminent men.
Now if is were not for the ultraism of its proprietors, we should probably be favored, from time to time, with the counterfeit presentment of a Whig politician or writer, for, after all, there are some few men of talents even among the Whigs.

Iberian literary circles, however, preferred to assert their independence and drew a literary borderline along the Pyrenees.
They were kindred but not allied, and south of the border, the differences were stressed by giving other names to the corresponding impulses in style - ultraism, creationism.
It has also happened that the similarities have been recognized and the Gallic term accepted, but the admission has been worded in a challenging way: Spanish surrealiam has given the French surrealism what it has lacked - a poet.

In the rapid advance now making by the National troops in every quarter a policy will soon have to be carefully matured, undisfigured by the millennial day-dreams of ultraism, and such as will be calculated most speedily to bring back the disaffected States to a full appreciation of the blessings of the Union.
Left to that, Ohio and Illinois need not pass laws to exclude him from their bounds, and South Carolina need not continue in arms under any false pretext that the safety of the negro is endangered.

Die Verbindung ultraism ist übrigens laut OED 1821 erstmals schriftlich belegt, bestand also schon, als der Begriff der Combining form erst aufkam.
Im Englischen ist ultraism tatsächlich wohl die einzige Verbindung zweier durchgängig als solcher ausgewiesener Affixe.
Für das Englische jedoch können - das Beispiel ultraism zeigt dies - distributionelle Erwägungen, wie Cherry und Bauer sie anstellen, nicht den Ausschlag geben.

The Presbyterian evangelist Charles Finney referred to Joseph Smith's upper New York State as the "burned-over district" because of the variety and intensity of religious fervor there.
The area was called a "psychic highway" and looked upon by orthodox churchmen as a hotbed of "ultraism" where settlers brought with them an experimental approach to religious and social ideas.
Contemporaries of Smith germinated such movements as Shakerism, spiritualism and the sexual communism of the Oneida community.

Through their publications and public lectures, they paid special attention to everything that was going on in European literature and art, reviewing the main events, promoting the principles of the latest movements in art and translating and publishing poetry and prose.
In effect, unlike what happened in Brazilian artistic circles, the impact of futurism was practically nil in Argentina.
Although many of its central themes and figures may be found in the manifesto published in the journal Martín Fierro and in the poems of Oliverio Girondo, or in the metaphorization of prose in Roberto Arlt, the Argentinean avant-garde adopted Spanish Ultraism and French Cubism as its central models.
