Beschreibung

Gathering work from the immediate aftermath of the First World War, Poems 1918-21, Including Three Portraits and Four Cantos records Pound at a decisive hinge: the compressed brilliance of Imagism gives way to the historical, allusive architecture of his mature modernism. Its portraits, lyrics, translations, and early cantos move between satire, elegy, and cultural diagnosis, testing how poetry might survive amid imperial debris, commercial vulgarity, and exhausted literary conventions. Ezra Pound, born in Idaho and formed intellectually in American universities before remaking himself in London and Paris, was by this period already a central provocateur of Anglo-American modernism. His work with Imagism and Vorticism, his advocacy for Joyce, Eliot, and others, and his immersion in Provençal, Chinese, and classical sources shaped this volume's restless method. The book reflects both his cosmopolitan erudition and his postwar impatience with inherited forms. This collection is recommended for readers seeking the moment when modernist lyric hardens into epic ambition. It is demanding, learned, and often abrasive, but indispensable for understanding Pound's transition toward The Cantos and the broader reinvention of twentieth-century poetry.
