The three volumes of Readings in the Cantos bring together, in a ground-breaking format, a number of critical readings by world-renowned scholars of the central modernist long poem, The Cantos of Ezra Pound. Each contributor approaches either a single Canto or a defined small group of Cantos in isolation, providing a clear, informative, and interpretive reading that includes an up-to-date assessment of sources and an idea of recent critical approaches. Together the contributors offer a remarkably diverse reading of The Cantos that at the same time demonstrates the coherence of Pound's text.
