A Companion to The Cantos of Ezra Pound

A Companion to The Cantos of Ezra Pound

This supplementary volume attempts to evaluate and simplify Pound's often bewildering work. It contains over 10,000 separate glosses that identify all proper names, literary and historical allusions, with exegeses based upon Pound's original sources.



The Companion is a major contribution to the literary evaluation of Pound's great, but often bewildering and abstruse work, The Cantos. Available in a one-volume paperback edition for the first time, the Companion brings together in conveniently numbered glosses for each canto the most pertinent details from the vast body of work on the Cantos during the last thirty years. The Companion contains 10,421 separate glosses that include translations from eight languages, identification of all proper names and works, Pound's literary and historical allusions, and other exotica, with exegeses based upon Pound's sources. Also included is a supplementary bibliography of works on Pound, newly updated, and an alphabetized index to The Cantos.
