Ezra's Cause of Writing

Ezra was a fascist, and got arrested for his broadcasting propoganda on the United States radio. He was sent to a crazy person hospital, because he was declare mentally ill. Those events right there most-likely had a huge impact on the way he wrote. I mean for crying out loud he is a crazy person. Mr. Pound also cheated on his wife, with his own nanny. When the nanny told the wife, she left him and went to Egypt. When she arrived back with Ezra, she was pregnant herself. This dude didn't have the greatest life, dont you think. His children lived very different lives, in which the daughter was brought up poor and a church girl, while his son was attending a boarding school. Although all this negative stuff happened, some good things happened to Pound as well. He recieved a doctorate from Hamilton College, which following after went back to Italy to write in the Italian Newspaper. Guess what his post was, "The Jews, Disease Incarnate." He signed the letter he wrote to James Laughlin "Heil Hitler." After the war broke out, he would write campaigns complaing about the United States, and how they need to keep out of this war. All these events HAD to have influenced his writing. This guy is crazy!!!
