Historicizing Ezra Pound
REVIEW ESSAY Light Enough Against Darkness? Historicizing Ezra Pound Ezra Pound’s Eriugena. Mark Byron. London: Bloomsbury Academic, 2014. Pp. 311 (cloth). Ezra Pound’s Adams Cantos. David Ten Eyck. London: Bloomsbury Academic, 2012. Pp. 241 (cloth). Ezra Pound’s Fascist Propaganda, 1935-45. Matthew Feldman. Houndmills: Palgrave Macmillan, 2013. Pp. 192 (cloth). Reviewed by Alexander Howard, University of New South Wales Blessed are those who pick the right artists and makers.1 I How do you solve a problem like Ezra? To put it another way: what critical methodologies should one use when attempting to catch and perhaps even pin down Pound, that most problematic of modernist figures? This is an important question that needs to be addressed when discussing the following works of recent Pound scholarship: Mark Byron’s Ezra Pound’s Eriugena (2014), David Ten Eyck’s Ezra Pound’s Adams Cantos (2012), and Matthew Feldman’s Ezra Pound’s Fascist Propaganda, 1935-45 (2013). The first two of these volumes appear on the Historicizing Modernism imprint run by Bloomsbury, whilst the third, belonging to Feldman (who also co-edits Historicizing Modernism with Erik Tonning), is a contribution to the Palgrave-Pivot series published by Palgrave MacMillan. All three authors are, in different ways, concerned with Pound’s life and literary career during the latter half of the 1930s. In particular, all three are interested in issues that directly effect the development and compositional history of the poet’s modernist epic The Cantos—that all- consuming yet tantalizingly incomplete poetic project which the critic Andrew 1 Ezra Pound, Selected Prose 1909-1965 (London: Faber and Faber, 1973), 185. -
The Knight and the Troubadour Dag Hammarskjöld and Ezra Pound the Knight and the Troubadour | Dag Hammarskjöld and Ezra Pound Marie-Noëlle Little
The Knight and the Troubadour Dag Hammarskjöld and Ezra Pound The Knight and the Troubadour | Troubadour the and Knight The Fifty years ago, on 18 September 1961, Dag Hammarskjöld died in the plane crash near Ndola in Northern Rhodesia (today’s Zambia). The Dag Hammarskjöld Foundation commemorates the event in many different ways, one of which is the publication of this remarkable story of a poet and a diplomat that will interest and intrigue many readers. Little Marie-Noëlle Pound Ezra and Hammarskjöld Dag The Knight and the Troubadour, which reveals a previously unexplored facet of Hammarskjöld’s life and documents the extent of Ezra Pound’s influence among Swedish poets and writers, marks a breakthrough in literary history and even re-writes history to some extent. For Dag Hammarskjöld, the diplomat, there were no boundaries between poetry and politics, and, with tragic consequences, the same was true for Ezra Pound, the poet. isbn: 978-91-85214-60-0 Marie-Noëlle Little Marie-Noëlle Little is a Professor of French at Utica College, Utica, N.Y.

(Pound, Canto 45): an Interview with Leon Surette Demetres P
“With usura hath no man a house of good stone” (Pound, Canto 45): An Interview with Leon Surette Demetres P. Tryphonopoulos University of New Brunswick L S has been writing for more than four decades Tprimarily about Ezra Pound (–), the American poet, may seem unusual and surprising—but this “scholarly monomania” may be attrib- uted to the fact that Pound continues to be a controversial figure and a paradigmatically difficult modernist poet. For instance, while the United States was at war with Italy and the Holocaust was being perpetrated, Pound made broadcasts over Rome Radio denouncing President Roos- evelt, encouraging American soldiers not to fight, and raving about Jew- ish conspiracies and the role of banks in having started the war. In the suppressed-until- Italian Canto , Pound pays homage to a young Italian girl’s sacrifice of her life in leading a company of Canadian soldiers into a minefield to their deaths—as Charles Olson later said, “Here we [Americans] were listening not only to a fascist, but the !” Indeed, there is overwhelming, and tragic, evidence for what Tim Redman has called “the frightening aspects of [Pound’s] allegiances.” Of course, trying to find excuses for Pound’s scandalous behaviour is indefensible; however, does it follow from this, as some critics and readers have insisted, that his work, including especially e Cantos, his magnum opus, is infected with his repugnant views to such an extent that it should be expunged from ESC .– (June/December ): – Inte(re)view.indd 273 2/21/2007, 8:43 AM the canon altogether? is is a question asked by Pound’s sympathizers, detractors, and those who aspire to remain objective alike. -
New Readings of Selected Works by Dante Gabriel Rossetti in the Context of Swedenborgian-Spiritualism
Conjugial Love and the Afterlife: New Readings of Selected Works by Dante Gabriel Rossetti in the Context of Swedenborgian-Spiritualism Anna Francesca Maddison BA (Hons), MA A thesis submitted to the Department of English and History Edge Hill University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2013 Abstract This thesis re-examines selected works by Dante Gabriel Rossetti in the light of a specific engagement with Victorian spiritualism, which is characterised by an interest in the esoteric writings of the eighteenth-century mystic Emanuel Swedenborg. It locates Rossetti’s use of Swedenborgian imagery and ideas in his written and artistic work, contextualising it within his engagement with spiritualism, and with reference to his interest in a visionary tradition of literature. The thesis therefore furthers what has begun in embryo in both Rossetti and Victorian scholarship; drawing together two hitherto separate areas of research, to formulate new and detailed inter-disciplinary readings of Rossetti’s poetry, fine art and design. The critical approach is twofold, combining historical scholarship with textual analysis. A cultural context is re-established which uncovers a network of Swedenborgian and spiritualist circles, and through original research, Rossetti’s connections to these are revealed. The specific approach of these groups, which this thesis calls ‘Swedenborgian-spiritualism’ (thereby naming a new term), is characterised by an intellectual, literary interest in Swedenborg, coupled with a practical engagement with spiritualism, and a fascination with the mesmeric trance state. In addressing three major works, ‘The Blessed Damozel’ (1850), Beata Beatrix (c.1863-71) and The House of Life (1881), the thesis traces Rossetti’s engagement with Swedenborgian-spiritualism through three distinct phases in his career, the result of which facilitates a greater understanding of the development of his poetics and artistry. -

Introduction: the Haunting of Christina Rossetti
Notes Introduction: the Haunting of Christina Rossetti 1 Jean-Luc Nancy, `Finite History', in David Carroll (ed.), The States of `Theory': History, Art, and Critical Discourses (Stanford, California: Stanford University Press, 1990) p. 152. 2 Italian proverb recounted in Christina Rossetti, Time Flies: a Reading Diary (London: SPCK, 1885) p. 4. 3 Cited in Jan Marsh, Christina Rossetti: a LiteraryBiography (London: Jonathan Cape, 1994) pp. 567±8. 4 Note, however, that some woman poets had a problematical literary relation to Rossetti as precursor. For a discussion of Michael Field's elegy, which figures Rossetti as an unfit muse for future poets, see Susan Conley, ` ``Poet's Right'': Elegy and the Woman Poet', in Angela Leighton (ed.), Victorian Women Poets: a Critical Reader (Oxford: Blackwell, 1996) pp. 235±44. Diane D'Amico's analysis of Rossetti's influence on Katharine Tynan and Sara Teas- dale suggests that they figured her as, respectively, a saint and artefact. See `Saintly Singer or Tanagra Figurine? Christina Rossetti Through the Eyes of Katharine Tynan and Sara Teasdale', Victorian Poetry 32 (1994) 387±407. Neither option embodies Christina Rossetti's historical personage. For a further discussion of Tynan and Rossetti, see Peter van de Kamp, `Wrapped in a Dream: Katharine Tynan and Christina Rossetti', in Peter Liebregts and Wim Tigges (eds), Beautyand the Beast: Christina Rossetti, Walter Pater, R.L.

THESE LETTERS IT CHRISTINA ROSSETTI ARE INSCRIBED BY HER BROTHER TO THE MEMORY OF OUR MOTHER TO WHOM HER OWN BOOKS WERE CONSTANTLY DEDICATED PREFACE The object aimed at in this volume is to present a selection from the family-letters of Christina Georgina Rossetti, supplemented by a very few letters of hers addressed to persons out of the family, and by a quite moderate number of those addressed to herself — as for instance by her brother Dante Gabriel. The total number of letters now extant, addressed to herself, is truly small ; for throughout her life her ordinary practice was to destroy such missives as soon as read and answered. On the other hand it seems probable that a very considerable number of letters written by herself to a variety of persons are still in being; for she was a highly punctual corre spondent, and, from an early period of her life, there were many who regarded her with predilection, and who thought her likely to do something of note, and it may be surmised that several of these have preserved what she wrote. -

An alternative critique is offered which interprets subjectivities as endlessly oscillating between positions of presence and absence, subject and object, silence and speech, here and elsewhere, and between the text and (impossibly) outside the text. This dynamic allows for a subtle matrix of collusion with, resistance to, and evasion of the representational system. I read this matrix as the product of Rossetti's biographical and poetical subject positions conventionally encoded as the superlatively and excessively feminine, and thus as both the basis of nineteenth-century gender ideology and its blind spot.
