This first volume of what will be a full-scale portrait presents
Ezra Pound as a very determined and energetic young genius
setting out to make his way both as a poet, and as a force for
civilization, in England and America in the years before, during
and just after the
1914-18
war.
A. David Moody weaves a story of Pound s early life and loves;
of his education in America; of his apprentice years in London,
devoted to training himself to be as good and powerful a poet
as he had it in him to become; of his learning there from
W. B.Yeats and Ford Madox Hueffer, then forming his own
Imagiste
group, and going on from that to join with Wyndham
Lewis in his Vorticism, and to link up also with James Joyce
and IS. Eliot to create the modernist vortex in the midst of
the
1914-18
war. We see Pound scraping a living by writing
prose for individualist and socialist periodicals, and emerging
as not only an inspired literary critic, but as a critic of music
and society as well. Above all, Moody shows Pound s evolution
as a poet from the derivative idealism and aestheticism of his
precocious youth into the truly original author of Homage to
Sextus Propertius and Hugh Selwyn Mauberley. By
1920
Pound
had established himself as a principal agent of revolution in
poetry, working for the liberation of the individual from stifling
conventions and for renaissance in America. We find him
becoming committed, moreover, to the reform of the capitalist
system in the name of economic justice for all.
This is the first biography to put Pound s poetry at the heart
of his existence, where he himself placed it. and to view his
extraordinarily active life, his loves, and his creative effort, as a
single complex drama. The altogether new and comprehensive
account of all of his poems, from the earliest through Cathay
and up to Hugh Selwyn
Mauberieymú
the first Cantos, will
illuminate his poetry and make it more accessible. With that
there is a clear and cogent analysis of his ideas: those that
informed
Imagismeanü
Vorticism. those that shaped his
commitments to the freedom and fulfilment of the individual,
to a cultural renaissance, and to social and economic reform.
The poetry,
tne
prose writings and tfie personal life are all
woven together into a brilliant narrative portrait of the poet as
a young man
A second volume will carry on the narrative of his life and works
from
1921.
tne
year ¡n which he took up residence in Paris.
