The concept of henotheism is one that interests me particularly because I have spent much time in South Asia, looking at manifestations of henotheism in India and Sri Lanka. You will have to refresh my memory as to where we might have left off on this issue. I think Pound's polytheism may be much closer to henotheism than to a traditional Greco-Roman approach to worshipping, believing in, or communing with deities. You may have thought this through to a much greater degree than I have. So please feel free to suggest where you find the issue most interesting, in relation to Pound, in relation to poetry, and in relation to the general subject of religio-philosophical speculation.
