Ezra Pound is one of the most visible and influential poets of the
twentieth century. He is also one of the most complex, his poetry
containing historical and mythical allusions, experiments of form
and style and often controversial political views. Yet Pound's life
and work continue to fascinate. This Introduction, first published
in 2005, is designed to help students reading Pound for the first
time. Pound scholar Ira B. Nadel provides a guide to the rich webs
of allusion and stylistic borrowings and innovations in Pound's
writing. He offers a clear overview of Pound's life, works,
contexts and reception history and his multidimensional career as a
poet, translator, critic, editor, anthologist and impresario, a
career that placed him at the heart of literary modernism. This
invaluable and accessible introduction explains the huge
contribution Pound made to the development of modernism in the
early twentieth century.
