520 _a"The Little Review, March 1917 (Vol. 3, No. 9) by Various" is a modernist literary magazine issue written in the early 20th century. It presents poetry, criticism, essays, and letters on contemporary literature, music, art, and theater, with a special dedication to the soprano Mary Garden. The issue opens with Amy Lowell’s “On A Certain Critic,” a vivid defense of artistic passion framed through Keats and the moon. A long central essay exalts Mary Garden’s artistry—her voice, movement, and transformative stage presence—while Richard Aldington’s two prose poems, “Thanatos” and “Hermes-of-the-Dead,” meditate on love, mortality, and the afterlife with classical poise and trench-borne sorrow. Margaret C. Anderson’s “Harold Bauer’s Music” argues for Bauer’s unique sound-centered pianism, followed by brief editorial pieces: a fierce antiwar litany; a reflective note on the final volume of Nexö’s Pelle the Conqueror; a defense of Amy Lowell’s craft; and a teaser on James Joyce’s A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. “The Reader Critic” section hosts debates on virtuosity versus “spirit,” the meaning of “significant form,” and whether art should serve social movements, capped by a strong argument for art’s autonomy. The number closes with editorial notes and period advertisements, sustaining the magazine’s blend of modern aesthetics, cultural polemic, and advocacy for living artists.
