Dear colleagues,

Sergei Tertyakov was a Russian  leftwing futurist and propagator of
"literature of fact" (in the late 1920's and early 1930's). In a German
edition of Sergej Tretjakow, Gesichter der Avantgarde (Aufbau-Verlag
Berlin und Weimar 1991, p. 462) I found an interesting note:

"1931 - Polemiken gegen Tretjakows Literaturbegriff und Schriftstellerbild
[...]. Ezra Pound, 'Open letter to Tertyakov'. In: Front, 2/1931, s.
124-126".

Obviously, this is a reply to Tretyakov's earlier  contribution to Front,
cf. Baechler, Litz & Longenbach,  Pound's Contributions to periodicals
(1991), vol. 5:

        Open Letter to Tretyakow, kolchoznik, Front, I. 2 (Feb. 1931)
124-6. Concerning "Report of S. Tretyakow, Kolchoznik" in the issue for
Dec. 1930.)

Does anyone happen to know where I can find Pound's 'Open letter'? If the
reference is correct, where can one find Front (obviously a journal)?

I will be grateful for any hints for my further digging in the
Russian-Western modernist connections!

Sincerely,

Lars Kleberg
