The Life of Ezra Pound (Hardcover): Noel Stock The Life of Ezra Pound (Hardcover)
Noel Stock
R5,680 Discovery Miles 56 800 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

First published in 1970, this is a detailed and balanced biography of one of the most controversial literary figures of the twentieth century. Ezra Pound, an American who left home for Venice and London at the age of twenty-three, was a leading member of the modern movement, a friend and helper of Joyce, Eliot, Yeats, Hemingway, an early supporter of Lawrence and Frost. As a critic of modern society his far-reaching and controversial theories on politics, economics and religion led him to broadcast over Rome Radio during the Second World War, after which he was indicted for treason but declared insane by an American court. He then spent more than twelve years in St Elizabeth 's Hospital for the Criminally Insane in Washington, D.C. In 1958 the changes against him were dropped and he returned to Italy where he had lived between 1924 and 1945.

Reading the Cantos (Routledge Revivals) - A Study of Meaning in Ezra Pound (Hardcover): Noel Stock Reading the Cantos (Routledge Revivals) - A Study of Meaning in Ezra Pound (Hardcover)
Noel Stock
R4,129 Discovery Miles 41 290 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

First published in 1967, this is a study which tackles the central problem of meaning, within Ezra Pound's The Cantos. It deals with the question of important critical issues, as well as of interpretation and understanding. Students of modern poetry will derive great benefit from this vigorous and lucid analysis of Pound's masterpiece. Noel Stock's finding is radical: that The Cantos is not a really a poem at all, but rather notes towards a poem. It is a collection of fragments of varying quality - some of extraordinary power and beauty - but in no sense formed into a work of art.
