DESCRIPTION:This talk will centre on William Carlos Williams' poem\, 'The 
 Great Figure' (1921) and its representation on canvas by Charles Demuth th
 at followed in 1928 in terms of confluence rather than influence. It will 
 broach their shared concern with finding new geometries through which to p
 erform the archetypal Modernist city: its contested spaces\; its nervous v
 itality\; its dream-like flashes of illusion. Jazz will be played.
