Ezra Pound (1885-1972)

Ezra Weston Loomis Pound (30 October 1885 1 November 1972) was an American expatriate poet and critic, and a major figure in the early modernist movement in poetry, known in particular for his role in developing Imagism, which favored clear language, a lack of rhetoric, and precision of imagery. His best-known works include Ripostes (1912), Hugh Selwyn Mauberley (1920), and his epic poem The Cantos (19251964).
