Gathers all the poet's art criticism from various sources, as well as his articles explaining the new approach of vortography, the English avantgarde movement
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Ezar Pound and the Visual Arts is the first gathering of the poet's writing in the field. In the opening section are assembled all of his art reviews contributed to London's The New Age in the years 1913-22.
New Directions has been the primary publisher of Ezra Pound in the U.S. since the founding of the press when James Laughlin published New Directions in Prose and Poetry 1936. That year Pound was fifty-one. In Laughlin s first letter to Pound, he wrote: Expect, please, no fireworks. I am bourgeois-born (Pittsburgh); have never missed a meal. . . . But full of noble caring for something as inconceivable as the future of decent letters in the US. Little did Pound know that into the twenty-first century the fireworks would keep exploding as readers continue to find his books relevant and meaningful.
