- Mary_de_Rachewiltz abstract "Mary de Rachewiltz (born 1925) is an American poet, translater, and daughter of modernist American writer Ezra Pound with classical violinist Olga Rudge. Born in Brixen, Italy, on July 9th, 1925, de Rachewiltz was left in the care a peasant couple after her birth and raised, on their farm in Gais in the Italian Tyrol. There she grew up on a farm speaking the local dialect, but when she was older she began to join her mother, and Pound, at Olga's Venice house where she was exposed to a world of culture, literature and politics. In the Tyrolean village she had access only to two books, but when with her parents she had access to a library of books, was expected to speak Italian, and to wear white gloves. As a teenager she moved away from the mountains and at the point Pound took her education in hand. During the years Pound was broadcasting for Rome radio he was simultaneously taking time to teach his daughter literature, telling her "I can only teach you the profession I know."During World War II when her mother lost possession of her house in Venice, de Rachewiltz moved for a period with Olga to Rapallo, and was then later sent back to Gais when Pound brought his legal wife, Dorothy Shakespear, to live with Olga for period during the war. For a time during the war de Rachewiltz worked in a German hospital in Italy. When she came back to Rapallo, she found her father had been arrested on treason charges and was being held at the "Disciplinary Training Center" in Pisa. Pound was taken from Pisa to the US, where he would spend the next 12 years at St. Elizabeths hospital. On his release, Pound returned to Italy and lived for a period with Mary and her family at Brunnenburg.She married Egyptologist Boris de Rachewiltz in 1946. A son was born in 1947 followed by a daughter two years later. In 1971 she published an autobiography Discretions, and the following year her father died in Venice. In the 1980s she published the first dual language edition of her father's epic poem, The Cantos, which he began work on in the years before 1915 and continued to throughout his life until his death. She is curator of the Ezra Pound Archive, Center for the Study of Ezra Pound and His Contemporaries, Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, at Yale University. She studied at Radcliffe between 1973 and 1975, has presented lectures about her father's work and modernism throughout the US and Canada. She collected and co-edited with biographer David Moody, her father's letters written to his parents, published in 2011 as Ezra Pound to His Parents.Today she continues to live in the Italian Tyrol at Schloss Brunnenburg - the medieval castle she and her husband, Egyptologist Boris de Rachewiltz bought and renovated.".
