Let me see if I understand. Psalm 137 ("By the waters of Babylon we sat down
and wept"), a beautiful poem of longing and exile, which ends:
"Oh daughter of Babylon, you devastator!
Happy shall he be who requites you
with what you have done to us!
Happy shall he be who takes your little ones
and dashes them against the rock!"
would evidently be a "lower" form of art, since it clearly seeks to draw on
the passions of the people to whom it is addressed and ends with what looks
pretty unequivocally like a call to infanticide.
You say that a poem has never started a war. If starting a war is matter of
pulling triggers (or notching arrows, or dropping bombs) I suppose a poem
never did this. A poem also never made lunch. But poetry and all other art
is formed by the society in which it arises. Poems and language propagate
the values of the cultures that produce them.
If the Iliad glories in war, does it not then also have a responsibility in
continuing wars? It may not immediately incite its listeners to take up
arms, but it certainly propagates in them the core beliefs of a society,
including the notion that war is heroic. We could well hold it guilty of
starting many wars, just through propagating that one great lie "war is
heroic."
It is only our distance from the culture from which the Iliad sprang that
allows us to consider it dispassionately, as what I suppose you may mean by
"higher" art. Otherwise, we'd hear it as part of our own education as
warriors or as mothers and wives of warriors. It is a great poem not because
it is not calculated to incite the passions and lead people in a particular
direction, but for the grandeur and scope of the language through which it
does that very thing.
Perhaps you conceive of "lower" poetry as that which is specifically
intended as an instrument to incite, rather like a military march or a
patriotic painting. Well, certainly there is a lot of "official" art that is
truly bad, but I contend that that there is also plenty of great art that
does incite, and quite consciously. So yes, perhaps a poem never started a
war, but some poems keep war going. And occasionally a poem pays for lunch,
in the style of Cyrano de Bergerac.
The notion that it is desirable that a poem might "lie beyond such concerns"
as inciting passion or action is itself a cultural attitude, and not
something inherent in poetry as practiced through the ages. You may prefer
poems that reflect that attitude or allow you to practice it, but that does
not mean there is one cultural stream of "true" or "high" art producing
dispassionate poetry and another of "low" or "false" art ruled by passion.
Perhaps I misconstrue what you mean by these dichotomies of true/false or
high/low, but in any case they strike me as implying a value judgment that I
don't believe I share. I rather think I prefer poems that attempt to sway
me. I enjoy being swayed, all the more if the workings of poetic language do
so with a subtlety I can only decipher after the swaying.
There are only choices about how to use language, not choices about its
outcomes. By its very refusal to take sides, a dispassionate poem may be
complicit in social evils--or it may open the way to settle a dispute. We
may choose to use language passionately or dispassionately, to express our
desire for peace, for war, for quietude or for lunch. We have done so for
ages. There are no guarantees that language will have the effect we desire.
It's that malleable. For better or worse, we ourselves are that malleable.
We make our choices and hope for the best.
