Focused on an under-discussed and difficult to understand group of Ezra Pound's Cantos , Ezra Pound's Adams Cantos delves into the archival and historical record of these poems to demonstrate their crucial role in Pound's endeavor to compose "a poem including history." Subtly engaged in Pound's larger literary and cultural project of the 1930s, Ten Eyck deftly brings readers afresh to these underappreciated poems, illuminating Pound's own reading of John Adams, his process of composition, and his development of "a documentary method" of poetic writing-one of the most radical elements of The Cantos . Ten Eyck's greatest contribution, however, is his convincing insistence that we engage these poems and their politics literarily, and his teaching us how to do so., ...David Ten Eyck offers a careful and lucid analysis of Pound's interest in John Adams, which crystallize in the 'Adams Cantos'. By giving us fine close readings, and by looking at these Cantos in the context of Pound's life and development of his political and social views, Ten Eyck successfully counters the general negative critical reception of this part of Pound's magnum opus , also in terms of its poetic quality. He convincingly demonstrates how Pound's use of the Adams material is a new development in his 'historical method' and in the textual evolution of the poem, making his study an indispensable tool for any reader of Pound's work., Without insisting that [The Adams Cantos] are always as successful as the best of Pound's other work, Ten Eyck shows that they are much more successful, and much more interesting, than they can seem. As such, Ezra Pound's Adams Cantos represents an invaluable contribution to Pound studies. The book also opens up new opportunities for thinking about the poetry of the 1930s, modernist poetry more generally, and the histories of found poetry and documentary poetics., "Without insisting that [The Adams Cantos] are always as successful as the best of Pound's other work, Ten Eyck shows that they are much more successful, and much more interesting, than they can seem. As such, Ezra Pound's Adams Cantos represents an invaluable contribution to Pound studies. The book also opens up new opportunities for thinking about the poetry of the 1930s, modernist poetry more generally, and the histories of found poetry and documentary poetics." -- Sean Pryor, University of New South Wales, Modernism/Modernity, This illuminating study of Ezra Pound's Adams Cantos (62 to 71 of Pound's Cantos )offers a tour de force of careful literary-historical scholarship, adroit reading, and lucid explication. Ten Eyck gives one of the Cantos ' least critically addressed and least favoured sections astute and sympathetic treatment, dispelling many misguided assumptions about The Adams Cantos and opening up fruitful avenues for appreciating both their hitherto unrecognized centrality to the Cantos as a whole and the importance of their poetic achievement more generally. Challenging the longstanding view that the Adams fall among the least poetically successful of the Cantos , Ten Eyck skillfully brings out the subtlety of Pound's poetic effects in this section. Helpful, too, is the light the book sheds on the evolution of what is now commonly termed Pound's "documentary method": Ten Eyck usefully complicates oversimplified received ideas about this approach through patient attention to materials related to the making of The Adams Cantos (often those that Ten Eyck has unearthed from archives), such as Pound's reading, notes and drafts, and engagement with and transformation of source texts. Even as he acknowledges ways in which Pound's approach often misleads and contributes to the distortion of historical facts, Ten Eyck makes a persuasive case for greater attention to these Cantos , given their pivotal role in Pound's magnum opus and thought more broadly-and offers astute guidance for readers seeking to understand Pound's distinctive poetics and convictions more closely and richly. This robustly researched book is a must for Pound scholars, and it can also be read profitably by those wishing to gain acquaintance with Pound's poetics in the Cantos and the main lines of Pound's middle years., "Without insisting that [The Adams Cantos] are always as successful as the best of Pound's other work, Ten Eyck shows that they are much more successful, and much more interesting, than they can seem. As such, Ezra Pound's Adams Cantos represents an invaluable contribution to Pound studies. The book also opens up new opportunities for thinking about the poetry of the 1930s, modernist poetry more generally, and the histories of found poetry and documentary poetics." - Sean Pryor, Modernism/Modernity, David Ten Eyck's book provides an invaluable service to scholarship in its scrupulous adumbration of famously difficult modernist verse. Ezra Pound's Adams Cantos elaborates the "documentary method" at work in Pound's epic, tracing its development from the Malatesta Cantos of the 1920s to its fullest expression in the inscrutable poems dealing with the political thought and milieu of John Adams, composed swiftly in the lengthening European shadows of World War Two. Ten Eyck accomplishes a rare thing by showing how Pound's methods of citation transform from conventional (if dense) literary reference to what Peter Nicholls calls "an autonomous and continuous discourse." In doing so, Ten Eyck unlocks a hitherto oblique dimension of Pound's "poem containing history." The book is a lesson in How to Read: it performs a material hermeneutics carefully calibrated to a deep and judicious awareness of seemingly intransigent poetic materials and underlying documentary evidence. More than bringing the archive into the text - though surely the book does a deft job of this - Ezra Pound's Adams Cantos reinvigorates our understanding of Pound's own aspiration to write a poem that would function as a cultural repository, a textual place "where memory liveth., "Without insisting that [The Adams Cantos] are always as successful as the best of Pound's other work, Ten Eyck shows that they are much more successful, and much more interesting, than they can seem. As such, Ezra Pound's Adams Cantos represents an invaluable contribution to Pound studies. The book also opens up new opportunities for thinking about the poetry of the 1930s, modernist poetry more generally, and the histories of found poetry and documentary poetics." - Sean Pryor, University of New South Wales, Modernism/Modernity

Synopsis
Ezra Pound transformed his style of poetry when he wrote The Adams Cantos in the 1920s. But what caused him to rethink his earlier writing techniques? Grounded in archival material, this study explores the extent to which Pound's poetry changed in response to his reading of 17th-century American History and the social climate of the pre-war period.Drawing on the Ezra Pound papers, David Ten Eyck documents the changes to Pound's documentary techniques, establishing a chronology of the composition of The Cantos. His close readings of specific passages, set against the interwar years, allow Ten Eyck to gain insights into Pound's 1930s political and social criticism. Through references to the annotated copy of The Works of John Adams, he explores Pound's engagement with Adams at the expense of Thomas Jefferson: a figure formally at the heart of his previous work. Ultimately, this contextual and archival study uses John Adams and America to unlock the fascist beliefs and the later poetry of Ezra Pound.

    Great transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
