Guide to Ezra Pound''s Personae (1926)

"Delightful . . . chock-full of the information readers of the Personae need. More important, Ruthven refuses to stay in the place of a handbook drudge. His feelings and judgments about the poems, concerning which he is ostensibly providing only neutral facts, are manifest everywhere. Thus his work is full of implications relating it to the more serious criticism." --Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism

 

"He has attempted the annotation of the poems Pund allowed to remain in Personae (1926), his primary attention being directed to textual variants (rather few), allusions (many) and translations (many). The Guide is . . . extremely well done." --Times Literary Supplement

 

"Comprehensive, meticulous, and extremely helpful for the scholar, student, and general reader." --Choice
