Burt, You might find "Machine Art" useful. (edited by Maria Luisa Ardizone, Duke Univ. Press). Jim Kraus >Pounders, > >I've been thinking about the parallels between Pound's poetics and >the film aesthetic of the 1920s, and I'm looking for information on >what movies Pound may have seen during this period and what he might >have thought/said about them. I'm also >looking for critical commentary on the relationship between Pound's >poetic methods and film technique. Kenner in The Pound Era and Max >Nanny in his book on Pound and the electronic age mention that in >developing his concept of "montage" Eisenstein >points to the Chinese ideogram as a model, and the analogy with >Pound's poetic method is obvious; but neither Kenner nor Nanny >explores the relationship between Pound's poetic methods and actual >films of the time. Any tips would be much appreciated. > >Burt Hstlen --
