‘Read Him’
from Part III - Culture and Politics
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 October 2019
A collection of essays titled The New Ezra Pound Studies cannot help but deploy the currency of Transatlantic Modernism. Indeed the coin Pound himself fashioned in the imperative mood, to ‘Make It New’, directs us to chart where new avenues of inquiry are to be found, and where more familiar terrain may enjoy renewal by virtue of newly available archival sources, methodological advances, developments in various discourses since Pound’s day, and different kinds of reception in a range of geographical, linguistic and cultural spheres. Each essay presents a case for reconsidering what we think we know about Pound, but also what we think we know about Modernism, the Greek and Roman classics, Italian Fascism, Queer discourse, post-Mao Chinese poetics, copyright law, and United States political culture, among numerous other topics, and the way these intersect with Pound’s own cultural production.
