Quotes by Ezra Pound
Ezra Pound, 1885-1972. American writer who exerted great influence on the development of modern literature through his poetic works, such as the unfinished Cantos (1925-1960), his critical works, including ABC of Reading (1934), his voluminous contributions to literary magazines, and his tutelage of writers such as T.S. Eliot , James Joyce, and Ernest Hemingway MP3 Songs
  • The modern artist must live by craft and violence. His gods are violent gods . . . Those artists, so called, whose work does not show this strife, are uninteresting. All great art is born of the metropolis. It would be about as easy for an American to become a Chinaman or a Hindoo as for him to acquire an Englishness or a Frenchness or a European-ness that is more than half skin deep. One measure of a civilization, either of an age or of a single individual, is what that age or person really wishes to do. A man's hope measures his civilization. The attainability of the hope measures, or may measure, the civilization of his nation and time. The real meditation is . . . the meditation on one's identity. Ah, voilà une chose!! You try it. You try finding out why you're you and not somebody else. And who in the blazes are you anyhow? Ah, voilà une chose!

Ezra Pound in the University of Idaho Library
One of Idaho's most famous, or infamous, native sons, Ezra Pound's literary reputation was founded half-a-world away, in London, Paris, and Rome. Born in Hailey, Idaho, in October of 1885, the son of a federal land officer who eighteen months later returned to the East with his family, Pound became one of the founders of Modernism in poetry. Although he never returned to Idaho, he retained a sense of "westerness" that led him to break with established canons of society and flee to Europe in 1908. Promoter and provocateur, Pound proceeded, with T. S. Eliot and others, to reshape the world of poetry. In France, he met Gertrude Stein, who quipped, in The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas (NY, 1933. p. 246): "He was a village explainer, excellent if you were a village, but if you were not, not." Later, his enthusiasm for radical economic theories led him to embrace Italian fascism. As a result, he was imprisoned after WWII in a mental hospital in Washington, D.C. Returning to Italy, he died there in 1972. The following year, the Pound collection at the University of Idaho was established at the Library. Pound's daughter, the Princess Mary de Rachewiltz, presented a number of her father's works to the collection. She wrote that her father "was very proud of his connection with [Idaho] and I think you will find affectionate and amused references to it throughout his writings." In honor of her father, the Princess has continued to donate privately published books on Pound and his circle to the Library's collection.

Note This is pound s translation of a poem by the 8th century poet Li T aiPo such a free translation as to be a very different poem.

Ezra Pound
Pound translated Japanese versions of the poems of the Chinese poet Li Po.
The River-Merchant's Wife
While my hair was still cut straight across my forehead
I played about the front gate, pulling flowers.
You came by on bamboo stilts, playing horse,
You walked about my seat, playing with blue plums.
And we went on living in the village of Chokan:
Two small people, without dislike or suspicion.
At fourteen I married My Lord you.
I never laughed, being bashful.
Lowering my head, I looked at the wall.
Called to, a thousand times, I never looked back.
At fifteen I stopped scowling, I desired my dust to be mingled with yours Forever and forever and forever. Why should I climb the look out? At sixteen you departed, You went into far Ku-to-en, by the river of swirling eddies, And you have been gone five months. The monkeys make sorrowful noise overhead. You dragged your feet when you went out. By the gate now, the moss is grown, the different mosses, Too deep to clear them away! The leaves fall early this autumn, in wind.

The first paragraph was written by Pound in 1939 especially for Twentieth Century Authors: POUND, EZRA LOOMIS (October 30, 1885November 1, 1972) American poet and critic, wrote from Rapallo, Italy, on May 12, 1939: "Arriving at the University of Pennsylvania in 1901, I acknowledge debts to Professors McDaniel and Child for Latin and English, and to Ames for doing his best when no professor of American history had got down to bedrock. Overholser had not made his admirable compendium of the real causes of the Revolution and of the great and dastardly betrayal of the American people and the American system, by the trick clause, and the Bank Act of February 25, 1863. He was born at Hailey, Ohio, an only child. His placid father, Homer Loomis Pound, a civil servant who ran the government land office at Hailey, went to work, as an assistant assayer, at the United States Mint when the family moved to Philadelphia when Ezra was fourhe retired forty years later. His mother, who had hated Hailey, was the former Isabel Weston of Washington, DC. In 1921 he wrote, hyperbolically but with a grain of truth, to Thomas Hardy: "I come from an American suburbwhere I was not bornwhere both parents are really foreigners." He would later say that his father was overly naive but easy to live with, and that his mother was a "prude" who rarely agreed with him on any matter.

Starvation cheap
Oh good, I find myself with a few spare minutes, to discuss the other big interest of this blog; the political and economic analysis of works of literature. I want to stress at this point that despite appearances, this post has nothing to do with any contemporary event; I just want to have a swipe at Rudyard Kipling for writing Yes, makin' mock o' uniforms that guard you while you sleep
Is cheaper than them uniforms, an' they're starvation cheap;

, a line from his poem "Tommy", much quoted by people who don't like it when anyone suggests that the armed forces might be the undereducated, often ill-behaved proleterians that they actually are rather than the noble, disciplined warriors that belligerent sentimentalist civilians would like them to be. I don't suppose it's particularly relevant to the sentiments expressed in the poem, but the historical fact of the matter is that Kipling is bullshitting particularly hard in this couplet.
The poem "Tommy" was written in 1892. At that point, the last time when the British Army had been used in any capacity which might be regarded as "guarding the civilian population of the British Isles while they slept" was at Waterloo, some fifty years before Kipling was born. The British fought

by Carlo Parcelli Ezra Skinhead:
The Cantos as "The Anthem of Fascism"
The Genealogy of Demons , claimed that his research demonstrated that Pound's Cantos are a manual for Fascists albeit borne of a fascism fundamentally Confucian in nature. The implication among critics like En Lin Wei, Casillo, and others is that the Cantos' main function is as ideology and that this was Pound's primary intent. In fact, one Italian list member went so far as to assert that the Cantos are the "Anthem of Fascism." The slightly veiled intimation is that the Cantos , if not the bible, is certainly one of Fascism's central and necessary texts. Cantos had on their organizations and/or any individuals within their organization. Of the dozens of queries I made, I received three replies. Groups I wrote to or emailed included the American Nationalist Union, Aryan Nations, British Nationalist Party, The David Duke Report, National Alliance, Nationalist Socialist Movement, National Socialist White Peoples Party, World Church of the Creator, Aryan National Front, and many more. I sent follow up requests when no reply was forthcoming. In many cases I contacted local affiliates seeking Canto loving Neo-Nazis in places like Altoona, PA and Missoula, MT.

Modernism and Experimentation: Authors: Ezra Pound (1885-1972)
Index Ezra Pound was one of the most influential American poets of this century. From 1908 to 1920, he resided in London, where he associated with many writers, including William Butler Yeats, for whom he worked as a secretary, and T.S. Eliot , whose Waste Land he drastically edited and improved. He was a link between the United States and Britain, acting as contributing editor to Harriet Monroe's important Chicago magazine Poetry and spearheading the new school of poetry known as Imagism, which advocated a clear, highly visual presentation. After Imagism, he championed various poetic approaches. He eventually moved to Italy, where he became caught up in Italian Fascism. Des Imagistes , offered examples of Imagist poetry by outstanding poets, including William Carlos Williams , H.D. (Hilda Doolittle), and Amy Lowell. Pound's interests and reading were universal. His adaptations and brilliant, if sometimes flawed, translations introduced new literary possibilities from many cultures to modern writers. His life-work was

Race in America EZRA POUND "A candid judge will read each work of wit With the same spirit that its author writ" -Pope I confess that the poet I find most moving, brilliant and technically perfect is Ezra Pound. The "Cantos" were the most ambitious poetic project undertaken by one person in about 500 years, and they're probably an ambitious failure. But within them is great poetry, once you pick it out from the bad history and worse economic theory. And even without the "Cantos," his early poems are lovely and disturbing, very old and very new all at once. He's not the politically correct choice. The later Pound is a crank, but he had a right to be. He saw the best of his generation blasted and gassed in the trenches of World War I, and then once the war cleared the field, he watched mediocre but active minds grab all the prizes, the teaching posts and publishing contracts, often making their reputation by imitating Pound and others who stuck to their art and starved for it. After that war, he lived among a literary public so revolted by carnage that it turned its back on the heritage of Western Civilization (a term that, even now, has a faintly 19th century academic tinge). But that learning was at the root of all that Pound new. He arrived at maturity with the skills of a great poet, only to find his audience half-slaughtered, half-disgusted. So he wrote for the dead, for the generation that should have been, and for whatever hope he had that the future would find the path again.

    Born in Idaho and raised in Pennsylvania, Ezra Pound spent most of his life in Europe and became one of the 20th century's most influential and controversial poets in the English language. After college in Pennsylvania and a brief stint as a teacher, Pound travelled to Venice and then to London, where he refined his aesthetic sensibilities and edited the anthology Des Imagistes (1914). Pound championed the likes of T. S. Eliot William Carlos Williams and James Joyce and, influenced by Chinese and Japanese poetry, advocated free meter and a more economical use of words and images in poetic expression. He moved to Paris in 1920 and got acquainted with Gertrude Stein and her circle of friends (which included Ernest Hemingway and Pablo Picasso ), then settled in Italy in 1924. Enamored with Benito Mussolini , Pound made anti-American radio broadcasts during World War II. He was arrested as a traitor in 1945 and initially confined in Pisa. He was then sent to the U.S., where he was deemed mentally unfit to stand trial for treason. After 12 years in a Washington, D.C. mental institution, Pound returned to Italy, where he died in 1972. His poetic works include Cathay (1915, based on the transliterations of sinologist Ernest Fenollosa)

    from: lee lady
    to: the ezra pound mailing list
    date: september, 1999

    almost forty years ago, i made a decision to put my involvement with Ezra Pound behind me. This was not so much because I thought that there was anything wrong about it, but because I decided that it was important to find my own path in life and that I did not want to go through life primarily thinking of myself as a Poundite. ("Poundite" was the adjective that everyone I knew at that time used. Now I see that "Poundian" has become the preferred form.) So for forty years, since the age of about twenty, I maintained a pretty firm disinterest in things concerning Pound. I noted the occasional biographies, glanced through them in bookstores, looked in the index to see if names I knew ( Sheri Martinelli , John Chatel, Bill McNaughton) were mentioned (usually, but almost always briefly), noticed with relief that my own was not. I threw away my letters from Pound, which was just as well because there was little of interest in them. (I do regret, however, not having saved the letters from Sheri, which were much more interesting.) My signed copy of Guide to Kulchur got left behind in the library at a commune/school called Summerlane in upper New York State.

  • Ezra Pound "The Cantos" Modernist poet Ezra Pound (b. 1885) is known for advancing the work of such contemporaries as William Carlos Williams, Marianne Moore, James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway, and especially T. S. Eliot. A proponent of Imagism, a movement derived from classical Chinese and Japanese poetry which stresses clarity and economy of language, Pound believed poetry should "compose in the sequence of the musical phrase, not in the sequence of the metronome." His later work, focused on the encyclopedic epic poem he entitled "The Cantos" for which he was awarded the Bollingen-Library of Congress Award. Pound is also known for his political controversy. In 1924 he moved to Italy and became involved in Fascist politics. Upon his return to the U.S. in 1945, he was arrested on charges of treason for broadcasting Fascist propaganda to the U.S. during WWII. Acquitted in 1946, Pound was declared mentally ill and committed to a hospital. After appeals from writers won his release in 1958, Pound returned to Italy where he settled in Venice and died a semi-recluse in 1972.
