Abstract
Drawing extensively on material from the archives, The Late Cantos of Ezra Pound explores the textual history of Pound's later verses Section: Rock-Drill (1955) and Thrones (1959). Examining unpublished letters, draft manuscripts and critical essays this book addresses the history of the composition, revision and dissemination of these notoriously difficult verses 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 throughout with reproductions of the archival material covered, The Late Cantos of Ezra Pound is a ground-breaking new study of one of the most important poets of the 20th century.
