    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion; it is not the expression of personality, but an escape from personality.

    “The point of view which I am struggling to attack is perhaps related to the metaphysical theory of the substantial unity of the soul: for my meaning is, that the poet has, not a “personality” to express, but a particular medium, which is only a medium and not a personality, in which impressions and experiences combine in peculiar and unexpected ways. Impressions and experiences which are important for the man may take no place in the poetry, and those which become important in the poetry may play quite a negligible part in the man, the personality.”

    Impersonal Theory of Poetry “Honest Criticism and sensitive appreciation are directed not upon the poet but upon the poetry.” “The mind of the poet … may partly or exclusively operate upon the experience of the man himself; but, the more perfect the artist, the more completely separate in him will be the man who suffers and the mind which creates; the more perfectly will the mind digest and transmute the passions which are its material.”
