Mary de Rachewiltz, the daughter of Ezra Pound, was Curator of the
Ezra Pound Archive in the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript
Library, Yale University, and has edited and translated into
Italian his Cantos and much else of his poetry and prose. She is a
published poet in her own right, as well as the translator into
Italian of several American poets including Marianne Moore, E. E.
Cummings, and Denise Levertov. A. David Moody is Professor emeritus
of the
University of York. He is currently at work on a critical biography
of Ezra Pound, of which the first volume was published by OUP in
2007.
Joanna Moody taught in the Department of English and Related
Literature at the University of York. She edited The Diary of Lady
Margaret Hoby, 1599-1605 and The Private Correspondence of Jane
Lady Cornwallis Bacon.
These letters back to 166 Fernbrook Avenue, Wyncote, Philadelphia,
frequently make us acknowledge the great distance Pound travelled
from his suburban origins in quest of a poetry capable of wrenching
the American impulse into art.
