> Washington DC
> “Ezra Pound and Other World Cultures” sponsored by the Ezra Pound Society

> “All ages are contemporaneous,” Ezra Pound writes in 1910,  
> especially in literature. To be sure, his life work drew a vast  
> array of other peoples, their worlds, their ideas, into his own  
> contemporaneous literary universe. We know the people, the places,  
> and the ideas drawn together. But it works the other way too, for  
> Pound enters into interpretive dialogues with other worlds  
> understood not just as parts of his own vision, but also as entities  
> discrete unto themselves.
> 	In this call for papers we seek scholars, artists, and even  
> performers game to undertake an examination, broadly considered, of  
> other-world cultures engaged by Pound. What various ends do his  
> appropriations of them serve, and how is his own literary universe  
> co-opted, disrupted, rerupted, counterrupted or changed by the
