Love
Ezra
Pound and H.D.
Jacob Korg
An illuminating comparative study of Ezra
Pound and Hilda Doolittle—their love, friendship, and artistic
dialogue
Ezra Pound and Hilda Doolittle,
who used the pseudonym H.D., are among the most important American
modernist poets. In this comparative study, Jacob Korg examines
their intertwined lives, from an early romantic relationship
when both writers were in their early twenties, through the ongoing
friendship and artistic dialogue that helped shape their work.
Drawing on unpublished letters and manuscripts as well as published
works, Korg offers a fresh view of two American artists and a
wholly unexpected portrait of Pound—examined here, for the
first time, through the context of a female modernist.
"A balanced
and judicious account such as this, by a critic who is equally
well-versed in the writings of H.D. and Pound, has great value
within poetry studies and modernist studies in general."—Wendy
Stallard Flory, author of The American Ezra Pound
Jacob Korg is professor emeritus of English at the
University of Washington. He is the author of five books, including
Ritual and Experiment in Modern Poetry.
