Although Pound\u2019s influence on diverse Anglo-American poets is well-known, this collection further reveals his lesser known, yet equally vital impact on the Spanish speaking world, which has been immense. A bilingual anthology, it includes 29 poets, 13 of whom write in Spanish and 16 of whom are Anglophone. In recent decades, the Ezra Pound International Conferences taking place worldwide have featured poetry readings in what has become by a well-known tradition. In Salamanca, poets of older and younger generations from five continents paid tribute to Pound, with selections from their work now available in this volume. The anthology includes poems by the Spanish <em>Novisimos<\/em> poets (\u201cThe Newest Ones\u201d), considered in Spain Pound\u2019s direct poetic heirs, such as Antonio Colinas, Jaime Siles, Luis Alberto de Cuenca, and Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda \u00c1lvarez, but also included here are poems by Jorge Guill\u00e9n from the Generation of \u201927, as well as Spanish American poets such as Ernesto Cardenal, Gonzalo Rojas Pizarro, Juli\u00e1n Herbert, and Jeannette Lozano Clariond; also represented are poets of a younger generation: Jordi Doce, Juan Antonio Gonz\u00e1lez-Iglesias, M\u00aa \u00c1ngeles P\u00e9rez L\u00f3pez, and Natalia Carbajosa.<\/p>\n<p>At the reading in Salamanca, the Anglophone poets, including many devoted Poundians among them, also offered a robust contribution. Still, in concert with their Spanish-speaking counterparts, these poets have also recreated the Spanish world in unusual ways, each reflecting a different, illuminating dimension of Pound\u2019s sensibility. Celebrated Anglophone poets present here include David Cappella, John Gery, Patrizia de Rachewiltz, Tony Lopez, Ron Smith, Clive Wilmer, Paul Scott Derrick, Jeff Grieneisen and Silvia Falsaperla, together with distinguished scholars such as David Moody, Alec Marsh, and John Beall, as well as promising voices of a new generation: Rhett Forman, Justin Kishbaugh, Chengru He, and Sean Mark.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Esta antolog\u00eda, la primera que re\u00fane a poetas angl\u00f3fonos e hispanohablantes, naci\u00f3 a ra\u00edz de un recital de poes\u00eda celebrado en la Universidad de Salamanca en julio de 2019, con el prop\u00f3sito de infundir nueva vida al valioso legado po\u00e9tico del poeta Ezra Pound. Si bien su influencia en la tradici\u00f3n angloamericana es indiscutible, esta antolog\u00eda revela la inmensa huella, menos conocida, aunque igualmente vital de Pound en los poetas del mundo hispano.<\/p>\n<p>Se trata por tanto de una colecci\u00f3n biling\u00fce que incluye 29 poetas, de los cuales 13 escriben en espa\u00f1ol y 16 en ingl\u00e9s. En las \u00faltimas d\u00e9cadas, los congresos internacionales dedicados a la obra de Ezra Pound, celebrados por todo el mundo, han venido organizando recitales po\u00e9ticos que ya se han convertido en tradici\u00f3n. En Salamanca, poetas de distintas generaciones y de cinco continentes rindieron homenaje a Pound con una selecci\u00f3n de sus propias obras, recogida en este volumen. As\u00ed, se incluyen poemas de la generaci\u00f3n espa\u00f1ola de los Nov\u00edsimos, considerada heredera directa de Pound, entre los que se encuentran Antonio Colinas, Jaime Siles, Luis Alberto de Cuenca y Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda \u00c1lvarez. Tambi\u00e9n se incorporan versos del poeta de la generaci\u00f3n del 27 Jorge Guill\u00e9n, as\u00ed como de poetas hispanoamericanos como Ernesto Cardenal, Gonzalo Rojas Pizarro, Juli\u00e1n Herbert y Jeannette Lozano Clariond. Por \u00faltimo, se ven representados poetas de una generaci\u00f3n m\u00e1s joven, entre los que se cuentan Jordi Doce, Juan Antonio Gonz\u00e1lez-Iglesias, M\u00aa \u00c1ngeles P\u00e9rez L\u00f3pez y Natalia Carbajosa.<\/p>\n<p>Los poetas angl\u00f3fonos aqu\u00ed recogidos, muchos de ellos especialistas en la obra de Pound, enriquecieron igualmente el recital de Salamanca con sus excelentes aportaciones. Paralelamente a sus a los anteriormente citados recrearon adem\u00e1s el mundo hispano desde perspectivas novedosas, cada uno reflejando una dimensi\u00f3n diferente y clarificadora de la sensibilidad del autor de los Cantos. Poetas angl\u00f3fonos consagrados presentes aqu\u00ed son David Cappella, John Gery, Patrizia de Rachewiltz, Tony Lopez, Ron Smith, Clive Wilmer, Paul Scott Derrick, Jeff Grieneisen y Silvia Falsaperla. Junto a ellos, se incluye a acad\u00e9micos de renombre como David Moody, Alec Marsh y John Beall, as\u00ed como prometedoras voces de una nueva generaci\u00f3n: Rhett Forman, Justin Kishbaugh, Chengru He y Sean Mark.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":4407,"template":"","subject":[68,37,54],"browse_by_series":[33],"browse_by_imprints":[66],"conference":[],"class_list":["post-4408","books","type-books","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","subject-ezra-pound","subject-modernism","subject-poetry","browse_by_series-ezra-pound-center-for-literature","browse_by_imprints-clemson-university-press-independent"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/libraries.clemson.edu\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/books\/4408","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/libraries.clemson.edu\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/books"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/libraries.clemson.edu\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/books"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/libraries.clemson.edu\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/books\/4408\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5280,"href":"https:\/\/libraries.clemson.edu\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/books\/4408\/revisions\/5280"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/libraries.clemson.edu\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4407"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/libraries.clemson.edu\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4408"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/libraries.clemson.edu\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject?post=4408"},{"taxonomy":"browse_by_series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/libraries.clemson.edu\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/browse_by_series?post=4408"},{"taxonomy":"browse_by_imprints","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/libraries.clemson.edu\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/browse_by_imprints?post=4408"},{"taxonomy":"conference","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/libraries.clemson.edu\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/conference?post=4408"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
