Prompted by the occasion of a gala poetry reading at the University of Salamanca, Spain, in July 2019, this anthology is the first of its kind to comprise Anglophone and Spanish speaking poets breathing life into the multifarious poetic legacy of the poet Ezra Pound. Although Pound's influence on diverse Anglo-American poets is well-known, this collection further reveals his lesser known, yet equally vital impact on the Spanish speaking world, which has been immense. A bilingual anthology, it includes 29 poets, 13 of whom write in Spanish and 16 of whom are Anglophone. In recent decades, the Ezra Pound International Conferences taking place worldwide have featured poetry readings in what has become by a well-known tradition. In Salamanca, poets of older and younger generations from five continents paid tribute to Pound, with selections from their work now available in this volume. The anthology includes poems by the Spanish Novisimos poets ("The Newest Ones"), considered in Spain Pound's direct poetic heirs, such as Antonio Colinas, Jaime Siles, Luis Alberto de Cuenca, and Jos� Mar�a �lvarez, but also included here are poems by Jorge Guill�n from the Generation of '27, as well as Spanish American poets such as Ernesto Cardenal, Gonzalo Rojas Pizarro, Juli�n Herbert, and Jeannette Lozano Clariond; also represented are poets of a younger generation: Jordi Doce, Juan Antonio Gonz�lez-Iglesias, Ma �ngeles P�rez L�pez, and Natalia Carbajosa. At the reading in Salamanca, the Anglophone poets, including many devoted Poundians among them, also offered a robust contribution. Still, in concert with their Spanish-speaking counterparts, these poets have also recreated the Spanish world in unusual ways, each reflecting a different, illuminating dimension of Pound's sensibility. Celebrated Anglophone poets present here include David Cappella, John Gery, Patrizia de Rachewiltz, Tony Lopez, Ron Smith, Clive Wilmer, Paul Scott Derrick, Jeff Grieneisen and Silvia Falsaperla, together with distinguished scholars such as David Moody, Alec Marsh, and John Beall, as well as promising voices of a new generation: Rhett Forman, Justin Kishbaugh, Chengru He, and Sean Mark. ______ Esta antolog�a, la primera que re�ne a poetas angl�fonos e hispanohablantes, naci� a ra�z de un recital de poes�a celebrado en la Universidad de Salamanca en julio de 2019, con el prop�sito de infundir nueva vida al valioso legado po�tico del poeta Ezra Pound. Si bien su influencia en la tradici�n angloamericana es indiscutible, esta antolog�a revela la inmensa huella, menos conocida, aunque igualmente vital de Pound en los poetas del mundo hispano. Se trata por tanto de una colecci�n biling�e que incluye 29 poetas, de los cuales 13 escriben en espa�ol y 16 en ingl�s. En las �ltimas d�cadas, los congresos internacionales dedicados a la obra de Ezra Pound, celebrados por todo el mundo, han venido organizando recitales po�ticos que ya se han convertido en tradici�n. En Salamanca, poetas de distintas generaciones y de cinco continentes rindieron homenaje a Pound con una selecci�n de sus propias obras, recogida en este volumen. As�, se incluyen poemas de la generaci�n espa�ola de los Nov�simos, considerada heredera directa de Pound, entre los que se encuentran Antonio Colinas, Jaime Siles, Luis Alberto de Cuenca y Jos� Mar�a �lvarez. Tambi�n se incorporan versos del poeta de la generaci�n del 27 Jorge Guill�n, as� como de poetas hispanoamericanos como Ernesto Cardenal, Gonzalo Rojas Pizarro, Juli�n Herbert y Jeannette Lozano Clariond.
