Eduardus Estlin Cummings (14 Octobris 18943 Septembris 1962), late E. E. Cummings appellatus, nominis autem litteris ab aliis saepe e. e. cummings scripta,[1] fuit poeta, pictor, scriptor, auctor, et scriptor scaenicus Civitatum Foederatarum. Corpus sui operis 2900 fere poematum, duas mythistorias autobiographicas, quattuor ludos scaenicos, et nonnullos libellos amplectitur, cum multis adumbrationibus et picturis. Habetur unus ex eximiis poesis saeculi vicesimi vocibus.

E. E. Cummings anno 1953.
Imago, a se circa 1920 adumbrata.

Contra studium Cummings modorum avant-garde (haud dubie a calligrammatibus Apollinaire adfectus), multum eius artis, etiam apud iudicium suae aetatis,[2] modo a maioribus posteris tradito componitur. Multa poematum eius sunt sonnetae, quamquam sapore modernistico crebro praeditae, et ipse aliquando blues et acrostichidibus usus est. Poesis Cummings quaestiones amoris et naturae saepe tractat, cum coniunctione hominis singuli cum multitudine et mundo. Satura praeterea in suis poematibus saepe percrebrescit.
