An expanded edition of The Cantos

This paperback edition of Ezra Pound’s poetry includes material added after the 1969 revised edition: Italian Cantos LXXII and LXXIII and a 1966 concluding fragment. It also includes Pound’s English translation of Italian Canto LXXII, presented here for the first time. Those additions are the clearest point of distinction supplied for this edition, especially for anyone comparing versions of the work.

Book overview

Delmore Schwartz said about The Cantos: "They are one of the touchstones of modern poetry." William Carlos WIlliams said "[Pound] discloses history by its odor, by the feel of it--in the words; fuses it with the words, present and past, to MAKE his Cantos. Make them."

Since the 1969 revised edition, the Italian Cantos LXXII and LXXIII (as well as a 1966 fragment concluding the work) have been added. Now appearing for the first time is Pound's recently found Eglish translation of Italian Canto LXXII.
