Exploring the intersection of science and poetry, this study delves into how Modernist poets like Yeats, Eliot, and Pound utilized scientific metaphors to uncover the fundamental elements of poetry. Daniel Albright reveals their quest for poetic precision, drawing parallels between art and science. Through original readings, he illustrates how these poets aimed to forge a deeper connection with their readers, proposing a "wave-theory of poetry" that redefines both disciplines as complementary aspects of reality. This work offers a novel perspective on Modernist poetry's evolution.
