By God..., I'd like to see this ideogram. Wouldn't an image be important? --Leonardo T. de Oliveira 02:28, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
- I don't recall if Pound showed ideaograms in his texts explaining this idea ... possibly so, although I have no recollection of an ideogram for red as set out here. This article is about Pound's theory of how concrete images can be used in poetry to convey abstractions ... he was against - at least in theory - the ue of abstract words in poetry. "Go in fear of abstractions" he wrote somewhere. An image in the article would be nice, but I don't think it's essential. Stumps 03:36, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
