{"product_id":"9781472508867","title":"John Kasper and Ezra Pound : Saving the Republic (Historicizing Modernism)","description":"\u003cp\u003eJohn Kasper was a militant far-right activist who first came to prominence with his violent campaigns against desegregation in the Civil Rights era. Ezra Pound was the seminal figure in Anglo-American modernist literature and one of the most important poets of the 20th century. This is the first book to comprehensively explore the extensive correspondence - lasting over a decade and numbering hundreds of letters - between the two men.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eJohn Kasper and Ezra Pound examines the mutual influence the two men exerted on each other in Pound's later life: how John Kasper developed from a devotee of Pound's poetry to an active right-wing agitator; how Pound's own ideas about race and American politics developed in his discussions with Kasper and how this informed his later poetry. Shedding a disturbing new light on Ezra Pound's committed engagement with extreme right-wing politics in Civil Rights-era America, this is an essential read for students of 20th-century literature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48939763957995,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":320.46,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9781472508867-1.jpg?v=1783108708","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/products\/9781472508867","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
