| Like all historical data, the logorrhea of psycho-babblers needs to be evaluated in the context of other evidence. Undertaken in 1941 when he was increasingly losing his grip (as evidenced all too dramatically by the logorrhea of his wartime radio broadcasts), Pound's English rendering of Moscardino, particularly in those passages where the lunatic grandfather reminisces, prepared the way for the great theater of memory he would enact in the Pisan Cantos four years later. And Sherry's inclination to quote freely from his own thoughts, opinions, and writings adds to the dominant logorrhea. |
