Download or read book The Selected Letters of Ezra Pound to John Quinn written by Timothy Materer and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 1991-05-30 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a first-hand survey of the arts and literature during a crucial period in modern culture, 1915–1924. Pound was then associated with such germinal magazines as BLAST, The Little Review, The Egoist, and Poetry; he was discovering or publicizing writers such as Robert Frost, Hilda Doolittle, T. S. Eliot, and James Joyce; and he was championing the painters Wyndham Lewis and William Wadsworth as well as the sculptors Jacob Epstein, Henri Gaudier-Brzeska, and Constantin Brancusi. Pound wrote to John Quinn—a New York lawyer, an expert in business law, and a collector of unusual taste and discrimination—about these artists and many more, urging him to support their journals, collect their manuscripts, and buy and exhibit their paintings and sculptures. Quinn at one time owned manuscripts of Ulysses and The Waste Land, Brancusi’s sculpture Mlle. Pogany, and Picasso’s painting Three Musicians. Yet he was often skeptical about the value of new schools of art, such as Vorticism, and disturbed by the outspokenness of authors such as Joyce. Pound’s letters are unusually tactful when he counters Quinn’s doubts and explains the premises of experimental art. Pound’s letters to Quinn are touched with his characteristic humor and wordplay and are especially notable for their lucidity of expression, engendered by Pound’s deep respect for Quinn.

Download or read book John Butler Yeats Letter with Sketch to John Quinn written by John Butler Yeats and published by . This book was released on 1921 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Butler Yeats (1839-1922) was an Irish portrait painter and the father of the poet William Butler Yeats and the painter Jack Butler Yeats. John Quinn (1870-1924) was a corporation lawyer in New York City, and a noted private collector and patron of the arts. Yeats visited New York City in December 1907, remaining there, with Quinn's assistance, until his death in 1922. The item, written and drawn in pen and ink, is a brief autograph letter signed J.B. Yeats to “My dear Quinn,” describing the large sketch drawn above as “my reminiscence of last night’s dinner - you are not very like, but the other two are not bad.” From left to right, the dinner circle consists of Yeats, Quinn and a woman, showing the back of a man in the foreground, with a man's profile to the side crossed out. An additional small self-portrait is drawn below his signature and the date. What appear to be four lines of verse on the other side are also crossed out.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jeanne Foster challenged the accepted role for women at the turn of the twentieth century. Born on a hardscrabble farm in the Adirondack Mountains in 1879, she was hailed as an important voice in American poetry by 1916 when her first books of verse, Neighbors of Yesterday and Wild Apples were published. She had early success as a model—she was the Harrison Fisher girl of 1903—and later became a journalist for the American Review of Reviews. In 1918, she met John Quinn, patron of the arts, which placed her in the middle of some of the most important literary and artistic movements in the twentieth century. She counted among her friends John Butler and William Butler Yeats, Ezra Pound, James Joyce, Ford Madox Ford, Pablo Picasso, and Constantin Brancusi. This book reveals her dark affair with Aleister Crowley and her great friendship with Tomas Masaryk of Czechoslovakia. Today, Jeanne Foster lies buried in Chestertown, New York, next to her old friend John Butler Yeats.
