If you want to know about Pound & Emerson you might try:
Bell, Ian F. Critic as Scientist: The Modernist Poetics of Ezra Pound.
London: Methuen 1981
Scott, Martin "The Transcendental Ideogram: The Influence of Emerson on Ezra
Pound's Ideogrammic Method" Paideuma vol.23 no.2&3 (Fall and Winter 1994)
225-234.
Wolfe, Cary. The limits of American literary ideology in Pound and Emerson.
Cambridge: Cambridge UP. 1993.
You might also look at Kern, Robert. Orientalism, Modernism, and the
American Poem. Cambridge: Cambridge UP 1996.
All of these works see Emerson as the source of Fenollosa's linguistic
ideas, and therefore as exercising a profound influence on Pound by way of
Fenollosa.
