      If you can't name even three it's not fair to say that at all. The state of ideological play at universities 70 years ago is rarely telling about the same unis today AFAIK the only bats still going for Pound want to teach him despite his politics, not because of them

      Matteo Salvini tweeted out a Pound quite a couple weeks ago. Pretty loud dog whistle to the ultras. Lega MEP Mario Borghezio and Cold War terrorist Stefano Delle Chiaie reportedly involved.

      Grove City or Hillsdale, probably. Maybe Claremont.

      Come on, Pound is not part of the political theory canon under any stretch of the imagination

      My argument is not Jeet's. And in any event I think you've fundamentally misunderstood it.

      What is your argument, then? Help me understand it. So far I've taken it to be that fascist Poundians in the 1950s somehow mean that Pound is taught in US universities now for his politics. You have zero examples, plead ignorance of English depts yet insist you're right

      Let me try & be clear here: Pound's integration into canon in 1950s was carried out by people who were political sympathizers, they emphasized his social vision as well as his poetics, and this view of Pound remains the standard one. Plus real fascists still like Pound.

          In my 13 years of college, law school and graduate school, I was taught Pound in one class: literary theory.
