How much does Rukeyser (aged only 18) communicate about herself and her addressee in the document here attached? While promoting her little magazine Housatonic (see record [:466;466:] ), she communicates her awareness of the multiple threads of modernism along with her admiration toward Ezra Pound, “the presumed dean of modernist letters” (see record [:613; 613:] ). Thus modernism is the subject / link of this epistle.
