Ezra Pound has been called a "poetic visionary" and the "catalyst of the American modernist movement." All of his work collected runs well over 1,000 pages. Here is a new collection of the best of the best of the poetic work of the young Pound, filled with creative energy, verbal virtuosity, and clear-sighted vision. His continuing goal was to "make it new," and so he did. This volume includes some of Pound's most powerful and most memorable poems from Personae, Exultations, Ripostes, Cathay, Lustra, and Hugh Selwyn Mauberley, along with several other Pound collections. It also includes some poems that have not been previously collected.
A fragmented, impressionistic account of the young poet's experiences in Southern France
Collecting in full for the first time the correspondence between Ezra Pound and members of Leo Frobenius' Forschungsinstitut für Kulturmorphologie in Frankfurt across a 30 year period, this book sheds new light on an important but previously unexplored influence on Pound's controversial intellectual development in the Fascist era. Ezra Pound's long-term interest in anthropology and ethnography exerted a profound influence on early 20th century literary Modernism. These letters reveal the extent of the influence of Frobenius' concept of 'Paideuma' on Pound's poetic and political writings during this period and his growing engagement with the culture of Nazi Germany. Annotated throughout, the letters are supported by contextualising essays by leading Modernist scholars as well as relevant contemporary published articles by Pound himself and his leading correspondent at the Institute, the American Douglas C. Fox.
In Poems 1918-21 Ezra Pound shares his strong yet subtly lyrical poems including the more epic Three Portraits and Four Cantos. The style is often that of modernism devoid of symbolism or romanticism, often leading the reader to an intentional conclusion.
Included here are all of Pound's concert reviews and statements; the biweekly columns written under the pen name William Atheling for The New Age in London; articles from other periodicals; the complete text of the 1924 landmark volume Antheil and the Treatise on Harmony; extracts from books and letters, and the poet's additional writings on the subject of music. The pieces are organized chronologically, with illuminating commentary, thorough footnotes, and an index. Three appendixes complete this comprehensive volume; an analysis of Pound's theories of "absolute rhythm" and "Great Bass;" a glossary of important musical personalities mentioned in the text and the composer George Antheil's 1924 appreciation, "Why a Poet Quit the Muses."

Ezra Pound would deserve a place in the literary history of the twentieth century if only for bringing to light and to publication the work, among others, of T. S. Eliot, Robert Frost, James Joyce and William Carlos Williams. His tireless activities in behalf of other poets, artists, and literary ventures of every sort were in large part carried on by way of his voluminous correspondence. Eliot himself once commented that Pound's "epistolary style is masterly"--a judgment wholly confirmed by the 384 examples that comprise this selection. Included here are the poet's letters to Margaret Anderson of The Little Review, Harriet Monroe of Poetry, Harriet Shaw Weaver of The Egoist, H. L. Mencken and John Quinn; to such poets and writers as E. E. Cummings, Ernest Hemingway, Amy Lowell, Marianne Moore, Eliot, Joyce and, of course, his old friend Dr. Williams. Of exceptional interest, however, is Pound's massive correspondence with the young unknowns who wrote to him for advice. "The tone of his prose criticism," says D. D. Paige in his Introduction, "with its coruscations, its ellipses, its dogmatisms, its gay carnival air, its unwillingness to enjoy the safety gravity offers, its violence against entrenched stupidity and its championing of fresh writers--all that simply encouraged them to approach him. A tremendous lure!"
In making this selection, the author writes in his introduction to this paperback edition of early and out-of-print writings, 'my aim has been to show the unity of Ezra Pound's concerns.' The sixty-six pieces in Pound's Selected Prose 1909-1965 are arranged thematically, and while they are organized chronologically within several groupings, there are natural cross-currents of thoughts among them.
The verse and criticism which he produced during the early years of the twentieth century very largely determined the directions of creative writing in our time; virtually every major poet in England and America today has acknowledged his help or influence. Pound's lyric genius, his superb technique, and his fresh insight into literary problems make him one of the small company of men who through the centuries have kept poetry alive-one of the great innovators.This book offers a compact yet representative selection of Ezra Pound's poems and translations. The span covered is Pound's entire writing career, from his early lyrics and the translations of Provençal songs to his English version of Sophocles' Trachiniae. Included are parts of his best known works-the Chinese translations, the sequence called Hugh Selwyn Mauberly, the Homage to Sextus Propertius. The Cantos, Pound's major epic, are presented in generous selections, chosen to emphasize the main themes of the whole poem.
Publicado por primera vez en 1915, Cathay contenía catorce traducciones del chino y una traducción del poema anglosajón "The Seafarer". Fenollosa habría escrito en primer lugar una transcripción fonética (utilizando la pronunciación japonesa del chino, razón por la cual muchos de los nombres de los poetas fueron resultado de transliteraciones, como Rihaku en vez de Li Bai). Posteriormente habría realizado una traducción al inglés, carácter por carácter, y finalmente una traducción o al menos un intento de aproximación a cada verso como un todo. La publicación original, hacia 1915, incluía además los aportes y desciframientos de los profesores Mori y Ariaga. Esta nueva traducción se basa en la edición centenaria de Cathay (New Directions, 2015), y reproduce la publicación original de 1915 en un solo volumen, más los poemas "Sennin Poem" by Kakahaku, "A Ballad of the Mulberry Road", "Old Idea of Choan" by Rosoriu y "To-EmMeis: The Unmoving Cloud", de Lustra (1916), junto con las transcripciones de Zhaoming Qian (transcripciones más completas y actuales, basadas en un cuidadoso examen de los cuadernos originales de Fenollosa archivados en la Biblioteca Beinecke de la Universidad de Yale).
