The ideogrammic method was a technique expounded by Ezra Pound which allowed poetry to deal with abstract content through concrete images. The idea was based on Pound's reading of the work of Ernest Fenollosa, especiallyThe Chinese Written Character as a Medium for Poetry, composed by Fenollosa but edited by Pound after the author's death, 1908. This was a key idea in the development of Imagism.

  • The ideogrammic method was a technique expounded by Ezra Pound which allowed poetry to deal with abstract content through concrete images. The idea was based on Pound's reading of the work of Ernest Fenollosa, especiallyThe Chinese Written Character as a Medium for Poetry, composed by Fenollosa but edited by Pound after the author's death, 1908. Pound gives a brief account of it in his book The ABC of Reading (1934). He explains his understanding of the way Chinese characters were formed, with the example of the character 'East' (東) being essentially a superposition of the characters for 'tree' (木) and 'sun' (日); that is, a picture of the sun tangled in a tree's branches, suggesting a sunrise (which occurs in the East). He then suggests how, with such a system where concepts are built up from concrete instances, the (abstract) concept of 'red' might be presented by putting together the (concrete) pictures of: This was a key idea in the development of Imagism.

Pound da una breve cuenta de ello en su libro (1934), donde explica su interpretación de los caracteres chinos, con el ejemplo del ideograma 'Este' (東) siendo esencialmente una superposición de los caracteres 'árbol' (木) y 'sol' (日); esto es, una imagen del sol enredada en las ramas de un árbol, sugiriendo un amanecer (que ocurre en el este). Él sugiere luego como, con un sistema donde los conceptos están construidos a partir de instancias concretas, el (abstracto) concepto de 'rojo' puede ser presentado juntando las (concretas) imágenes de: Esta fue una idea clave en el desarrollo del Imagismo.
