This edition contains extensive notes to Hulme's writings, together with a substantial biographical and critical introduction.
Thomas Ernest Hulme was an English critic and poet who, through his writings on art, literature and politics, had a notable influence upon modernism. He was an aesthetic philosopher and the 'father of imagism'.
