- Abstract:
The article outlines the history and profile of the latest periodical dedicated to the work of Ezra Pound, the digital quarterly Make It New. It was created by Roxana Preda in 2014 as an organ of the Ezra Pound Society, and is still running today. Make It New was launched simultaneously with the Pound Society website at a time when the digital medium was ripe enough to include and present the global work done in Pound studies. The aim of the new serial was to inform members of Society events (conferences and awards) as well as announce and review new publications on or related to Pound. The structure of the magazine was inspired by Carroll F. Terrell’s Paideuma to which the editor added the advantages of the electronic medium: speedy publication, multimedia, global sourcing of information. Make It New has a focus on reviews of new work in Pound studies and is a meeting ground of old and young scholars from all over the world.
