The career of Ezra Pound has come to represent the political
tendencies which, it has been claimed, are inherent to modernist
aesthetics. But the political impulses of the modernists cannot be
adequately represented by Pound's extreme positions; Pound's own
political activities and commitments, in fact, do not adequately
articulate the contradictory attitudes and beliefs that made them
possible. By contrasting Pound's politics to the political values
and beliefs of Gertrude Stein and Louis Zukofsky during the
Depression, this book argues that these three very different
writers share a complex set of attitudes and beliefs that are
grounded in a collective social fantasy corresponding to the rise
of mass consumption and the emergency of corporate social forms.
