Comment: Offers insight into Pound's work and his involvement with little magazines: The New Age, The New Freewoman, The Egoist, Blast, Poetry: A Magazine of Verse, and mainly The Little Review. He became poetry editor of the latter in 1916 and his relationship with the journal, not always easy, lasted until 1923 when its editors, Anderson and Heap, moved to Paris. According to the editors of Pound's letters, he saw the magazine as a vehicle for creating a Vortex: a circulation with a still center, a system of energies drawing in whatever comes near. Such could be the Little Review's role in the cultural renaissance he had envisioned. (xxvi-xxvii) |
