The Greek noun ekphrasis is connected to the verb ekphrazein, which means ‘to speak out’, or ‘tell in full’. Jean Hagstrum and other influential critics define this term as a special quality of giving voice and language to otherwise mute artworks. The aim of this article is to discuss and interpret the theoretical views concerning ekphrasis formulated by Jean Hagstrum, John Hollander, James A. W. Heffernan, and W. J. T. Mitchell. It also comprises a practical application of these theoretical postulates. Poems which actualize the ekphrastic principle, defined as “to give a voice to mute artworks,” are considered in light of theoretical considerations.
