Originally published in 1950 under title: The letters of Ezra Pound, 1907-1941.
Chicago and the Making of American Modernism is the first full-length study of the vexed relationship between America's great modernist writers and the nation's “second city.” Michelle E. Moore explores the ways in which the defining writers of the era-Willa Cather, Ernest Hemingway, William Faulkner and F. Scott Fitzgerald-engaged with the city and reacted against the commercial styles of "Chicago realism" to pursue their own, European-influenced mode of modernist art. Drawing on local archives to illuminate the literary culture of early 20th-century Chicago, this book reveals an important new dimension to the rise of American modernism.

A collection of poems by Harriet Monroe, the visionary founding editor of Poetry magazine. While her work as an editor had a profound effect on the development of American poetry in the 20th century, this book seeks to showcase Monroe's work as a pioneering poet in her own right. Selected by students at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln under the aegis of Professor Kevin McMullen, these poems, along with an extensive critical introduction and explanatory notes, establish Monroe's place as an important and overlooked Modernist poet.
