"This important work, first published in 1934 and now available as a paperbook, is a concise and direct statement of Pound's aesthetic theory. As the title indicates, it is a primer for the reader who wants to maintain and cultivate an active, critical mind, to become increasingly sensitive to the beauty and inspiration of the world's best literature. [] With characteristic vigor and iconoclasm, Pound brilliantly and logically defines the nature and meaning of literature, illustrating his precepts with exhibits meticulously chosen from the classics. These examples, selected from the work of such diverse poets as Chaucer, Douglas, Marlowe, Crabbe, and Whitman, together with Pound's succinct annotations, reveal the scope and depth of his extraordinary mind. ABC OF READING concludes with a 'Treatise on Meter,' which can be profitably studied by those wishing to read and write poetry. [] The entire book re-emphasizes the fact that one of Pound's major contributions to modern culture was his great ability to discover neglected and unknown genius, distinguishing originals from imitations, and opening new avenues in literature for our time."
