Pound vs. Eliot

[milo]

Milo,
Leaving aside the other clap-trap, do you not have a problem, when you say ''It is both perfectly phrased and true''? For whom, apart from the irrelevant author, could they be perfectly phrased? And how is it possible for that same irrelevant author to assert that his readers find one and the same truth in it? Cannot your reader with the long name say 'That's just your narrative'? (or even -- 'vieux jeu'?

Brilliant. Thank you. Sometimes i feel all irony has left the universe.
