Abstract

This collection gathers for the first time criticism on Ezra Pound’s lifelong involvement with Spain and Spanish culture, from his early visits to the dedication of the first monument to him in Spain in 1973. Part One includes an introduction and chapters on Pound’s study of classical Spanish literature, the Spanish dimension in The Cantos, his contemporary Spanish connections, and his Spanish legacy, while Part Two gathers Pound’s own writing on Spain not accessible elsewhere.
