As the title suggests, I just don't get Ezra Pound. I've read poetry for years it's one of my favorite things to do and though all the poets I've always found something I love but honestly Ezra Pound bores me to tears. I find his poetry lacks any feeling or heart. It reads like AI wrote it. So if someone can please explain to me what I'm missing here cause honestly I just don't get it.

Because sometimes: a book review says more about the reviewer than it does about the book. r/BadReads is a showcase of the most unhelpful book reviews from all over the internet: reviews that are shallow, vapid, vacuous or otherwise totally missing the point. Parody/satirical and tongue-in-cheek reviews are also welcome.

Hi. I've been making my way through everything currently in print by Ezra Pound. I've noticed he repeatedly dismisses Nietzsche, yet more or less parrots him in places, either in style or in ideas. I'm wondering if Pound actually gave much attention to Nietzsche, or picked things up from Wyndham Lewis. I've not found any information about this yet. If anyone has any ideas, prithee into the porches of mine ears etc.

I'm reading ABC of Reading by Ezra Pound. Who is he talking about in this quote:
I have taken to using the term phanopoeia to get away from irrelevant particular connotations tangled with a particular group of young people who were writing in 1912.
For context, earlier he was talking about earlier Imagism and how they got it wrong at first. Is he including Amy Lowell?
Welcome to r/EconomicHistory! Economic history is the study of economic phenomena in the past. This is a subreddit for any journal articles, news articles, discussions, questions, or other media pertaining to this discipline. If you are looking to become more familiar with key topics in economic history, please consider reviewing our Reading List!
I'm reading Pound's pamphlet Intro to the Economic Nature of the USA - he says: "The Bank of England was based on the discovery that instead of loaning money, the Bank's money could be put out on loan."
This doesn't mean anything to me, I am totally ignorant of economics - they sound like the same thing. Can someone break down exactly what is meant here (regardless of whether or not it is truth - I am reading for other reasons and just need to know what he himself meant)
Thanks a lot

Three spirits came to me
and drew me apart
to where the olive boughs
lay stripped on the ground;
pale carnage beneath bright mist.
