E.
E.
Cummings (1894-1962), poet and painter, was the representative of American modern experimental poets.
He reflected the harmony of poems and paintings in his works, chewing the conventional rhymes and syntactic structure of poems and even rejecting to transfer information and emotion in the way of conventional printing.
In other words, He has his own method of writing poetry and has special peculiarities in handling language in his own way . It is hypothesized that Cumming's trend of writing is unique and this is shown through his usage of foregrounding through all the levels of language.
This paper aims at showing how Cummings uses all types of foregrounding to elevate the theme of his poem "next to of course god america I"
