Esto hace que Davie, al igual que <strong>en</strong> POD y AE, mant<strong>en</strong>ga su crítica a<br />

la concepción romántica del artista: “Pound has made it impossible for any one<br />

any longer fo exalt the poet into a seer. This is what Pound has done fo the<br />

concept of the poetio vocation” (SEP, 465). Es más, Pound es visto como el<br />

responsable de la degradación del status del artista <strong>en</strong> la sociedad<br />

contemporánea. En ésta:<br />

The privilege thai Et exf<strong>en</strong>ds te the arfist Es privElege of file pariai... líe ariist Es,<br />

or is ¡ikely fo be, a pelifical imbecile... And br much el Ibis Pound is fo brame.<br />

Te be sure, he was out of his mmd. BtU American secEefy has refused fo see<br />

him as tierefore a special case. Nor Es this unjust, for madness Es <strong>en</strong>e of me<br />

risks tbaf the peet runs. (SEP, 201)<br />

De aquí que Davie mant<strong>en</strong>ga su ataque a la bohemia:<br />

For, comparing Pound with hEs c<strong>en</strong>temporary Edward Dahlberg, Olson peints<br />

out: they never speak, En Iheir siasí al the State of tie Economy, basically, for<br />

any <strong>en</strong>e buf themselves. And fhus, it is Beh<strong>en</strong>iianism, ter wíicil it is much loo<br />

late’. Jusf so. Bohemia is fhat privileged pariails’ fleid from whEch arrogance<br />

may be tolerated precEsely because Ets originating tiere declares it te be<br />

irresp<strong>en</strong>sible, necessarily. And se wh<strong>en</strong> Olson furtiler ebjects fo Pound fhaf Ihe<br />

materjais el ilistory wich he has bound uselul are net al ah el use, ile oughi fo<br />

mean fíat tie materials are useless because líe síance frem wíici tie poel<br />

regards ihem is necessarily distorting and untrustworfily, the stance of the<br />

Behemian. Whatever líe erEginal reas<strong>en</strong> ter the divEsi<strong>en</strong> befwe<strong>en</strong> ihe poets lite<br />

and ihe ile of socEety, whether fhe blame shouid rest histerically <strong>en</strong> ihe poets<br />

or <strong>en</strong> the societies they were bern te, the gulb befwe<strong>en</strong> them is new so wide<br />

that, etA of ihe Bohemia he Es c<strong>en</strong>demned te, the poef cannet fmtiluliy see or<br />

investigate public life at alt. (SEP, 202).<br />

Recapitulando, <strong>en</strong> EP:PS Davie contrapone Pound a Eliot. Fr<strong>en</strong>te al<br />

simbolismo, subjetivismo y modelado fem<strong>en</strong>ino de Eliot, Pound se pres<strong>en</strong>ta<br />

como un ¡mag¡st, objetivo, escultórico y masculino, cuya talla resulta <strong>en</strong> la<br />

espacialización del texto. Esta espacialización, a través del desmembrami<strong>en</strong>to<br />

prosódico y el simultaneísmo, conduce a la idea (forma) que, <strong>en</strong> Pound, se<br />

traduce <strong>en</strong> el doble mito personal de la caída y el eterno retorno, por el que lo<br />
