Dear Espen Gronlie:
I have not myself read the Anderson's title (would like to). I am only an
interested amateur not a Pound scholar. I thought it might be worthwhile to
send a description from the alibris website:

Pound's Cavalcanti
by Pound, Ezra. (other copies of this book)
Description: POUND, Ezra. POUND'S CAVALCANTI. An Edition of the
Translations, Notes, and Essays [Edited] By David Anderson. Princeton:
Princeton University Press, (1983). First edition. 8vo, cloth, pp. xxvi,
297. A fine copy in dust jacket. "This book presents the entire range of
Ezra Pound's studies and translations of the dolce stil nuovo poetry of
Guido Cavalcanti...Some of Pound's writings appear here in print for the
first time, including translations from 1910-1912...".

The title is evidently out of print, and alibris (www.alibris.com) offers
used copies from $50 to $3,000. Amazon doesn't list it.

I doubt that it "modifies" our perceptions of Pound's perception of
Cavalcanti; it sounds rather as if it extends the information surrounding
it. Good luck.

Tom White
