Description

The Cantos of Ezra Pound is one of the great landmarks in twentieth-centurypoetry. This Fourth Collected edition of 1987 includes two previously uncollectedcantos, and some passages from other cantos, omitted from earlierprintings, restored to the text. The additional cantos, numbered LXXII andLXXIII, were written by Ezra Pound in Italian, during the collapse of Italy atthe end of the war.. They belong in the sequence between the John Adams andthe Pisan cantos.
