[10m] Name this writer whose 1916 play At the Hawk’s Well was heavily influenced by Japanese Noh dramas.

ANSWER: William Butler Yeats

[10e] Yeats was introduced to Fenollosa and the Noh drama through this Modernist poet of the Cantos and the haiku-like “In a Station of the Metro.”

ANSWER: Ezra Pound [or Ezra Weston Loomis Pound]

[10h] A “razor-keen” katana given to Yeats by Junzo Sato partly inspired a poem in the form of a dialogue between these two concepts. The second of these two concepts defiantly asserts “a charter to commit the crime once more.”
