Abstract: “After the Leaves Have Fallen”. Zen and the Enlightening of the Self in Modernist Poetry. This paper sets out to examine a number of connections between Modernist poetry and the path towards the enlightening of the self in accordance with the Buddhist/Zen perspective on the role of meditation, spiritual advancement, as well as the search for balance and harmony. Through a metaphorical reading of certain Modernist efforts to incorporate Oriental material, we attempt to shed light on the ways in which poets of the age sought to provide answers to the problem of the individual living in a world marked by dichotomies, fragmentation and the alienation of subject from object. Keywords: Stevens, Modernism, Buddhism, Zen, enlightenment, still point, painting, seeing, No-Mind, old-age |
