Explanation:
<u>Imagism </u>is the literary movement that focuses on the <u>depiction of things as they are and not romanticizing or using 'extra' language to decorate it </u>like the Romantics. This early 20th century poetic movement founded by Ezra Pound is in favor of precise writing and use of words, the depiction of what it really is, and direct use of language rather than go round it. It also favors the use of exact words and not use extra words.
Marianne Moore's poem<em> "The Jelly-Fish"</em> is a 20-lined poem that presents an image of a jelly-fish and how it reacts when a person tries to touch it or capture it. And in her use of such precise words and exact 'to-the-point' directness in the description of the fish, <u>Moore embodies Ezra Pound's rules of imagism in that it does not use excessive words to give a description of the fish.</u>
