Transpacific Displacement: Ethnography, Translation, and Intertextual Travel in Twentieth-Century American Literature
Yunte Huang
This text re-reads Imagism through the works of Ezra Pound and Amy Lowell, relating it to earlier linguistic ethnographies of Asia and to racist representations of Asians in American pop-culture. It shows how writers subject racial stereotyping to double-ventriloqism and counter-mockery.
