In the early teens of the twentieth century, he opened a seminal exchange of work and ideas between British and American writers, and was famous for the generosity with which he advanced the work of such major contemporaries as W. B. Yeats, Robert Frost William Carlos Williams Marianne Moore H. D. , James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway and especially T. S. Eliot . His own significant contributions to poetry begin with his promulgation of Imagism , a movement in poetry which derived its technique from classical Chinese and Japanese poetry - stressing clarity, precision, and economy of language, and foregoing traditional rhyme and meter in order to, in Pound's words, "compose in the sequence of the musical phrase, not in the sequence of the metronome." His later work, for nearly fifty years, focused on the encyclopedic epic poem he entitled The Cantos Ezra Pound was born in Hailey, Idaho, in 1885.

Candidates Ezra Pound Ezra Pound, heralded as the 'founding father of modern English literature' yet denied honours during his life, was born in a frontier town in Idaho in 1885, the son of an assistant assayer and the grandson of a Congressman. He enrolled at the University of Pennsylvania in 1901 and in 1906 was awarded his MA degree. He had already started work on his magnum opus, The Cantos. An avid reader of Anglo-Saxon, classical and medieval literature, Pound continued post-graduate work on the Troubadour musician-poets of medieval Provence. In 1908 Pound travelled to Venice. There he paid $8.00 for the printing of the first volume of his poetry, A Lume Spento (With tapers quenched). Pound then went to London to meet W B Yeats, and became a dominant figure in Yeats's Monday evening circle, serving for a time as Yeats's secretary. He quickly gained recognition in London, and came into contact with the English Review that was publishing the works of D. H. Lawrence and the author, painter and critic Wyndham Lewis. In 1911 Pound launched his campaign for innovative writing in The New Age edited by the monetary reformer A. R. Orage. For Pound the new poetry of the century would be "austere, direct, free from emotional slither."

Make more money with your website, click here Ezra Pound (1885 - 1972) Ezra Pound was born in Idaho and raised in a suburb of Philadelphia. He studied at the University of Pennsylvania where he became the lifelong friend of William Carlos Williams. At age 23, in 1908, he moved to England where he met the most prominent writers of his day, inclluding W. B. Yeats, for whom he was secretary. He championed the careers of Robert Frost, T. S. Eliot (whose Lovesong of J. Alfred Prufrock he skillfully edited), and James Joyce. Pound lived in Paris from 1920 through 1924, where he was a friend of the writers Gertrude Stein and Ernest Hemingway. Having moved to Italy, in 1930 he met the Italian dictator Mussolini with whose anti-Semitism he was sympathetic. During WW II he made a series of pro-fascistic and ant-Semetic radio broacasts that led to his eventual arrest for treason following the war. Adjudged mentally unfit to stand trial he was sentenced to St. Elizabeth's Hospital for the Criminally Insane where he remained until 1958. Following his release, he returned to Italy. Pound was co-founder, with Richard Aldington, of a movement called imagism whos manifesto promised 1, direct treatment of the 'thing' whether subjective or objective; 2. to use no word that did not contribute to the presentation; 3. As regarding rhythm, to compose in the sequence of a musical phrase, not in the sequence of a metronome. Soon drifting to vorticism, he thereafter strove to depict dynamic energies rather than represent static images.
