I went to this after reading shag's post. Just who are _you_ that we should pay any attention to this message from the blue telling us we're ignorant of the most important book ever written, though none of us have heard of it?
I'll tell you what. You give me a good detailed crtique of the relationship between Paradise Lost and The Cantos, focusing on their shared epic features, & perhaps I'll browse through this bozo a bit. No one on this list seems interested in Pound, but I would hardly dream of whining about it, let alone epressing annoyance.
