Examining unpublished letters, draft manuscripts and other prepublication material, this book addresses the composition, revision and dissemination of these difficult texts in order to shed new light on their significance to Pound's wider project, his methods and techniques, and the structures of authority­-literary and political-that govern the meaning of his poetry. Illustrated by reproductions of archival documents, \u003ci\u003eThe Late Cantos of Ezra Pound\u003c\/i\u003e is an innovative new study of one of the most important poets of the 20th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Michael Kindellan’s excellent new book makes an argument, not about what we can do with Pound’s late poetry, but about what Pound wanted us to do … Kindellan explores the archive specifically in order to show that, for Pound, the author’s intention was paramount, and that the late cantos are written in such a way as to cancel the freedoms of interpretation … Whatever Ezra Pound’s readers do, those who write about his late cantos now need to read Michael Kindellan’s impressive new study.” - \u003ci\u003eModern Philology \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“With this intelligent, incisive book on the \"material history\" of these texts, Kindellan restores philology to a central place among the critical methodologies necessary to the reception of Pound’s work. Summing Up: Highly recommended.” - \u003ci\u003eCHOICE\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781474258746\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":40616242086094,"sku":"9781474258746","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781474258746","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
