I know Ginsberg & Reck (I don't know about Russell) claim EP recanted his 'antisemitism' but this just does not ring true to me. Pound thought out his positions carefully. I just can't buy that on a subject as politically charged as this he would change his mind, particularly because of all he had gone through. If anything it would have reinforced his opinion. But having said this I also believe the government drove or made his unstable in ST. E's. Olga would have known what he thought, but we probably never will. Thanks for the link.

Notice to anyone reading this: I am not your lawyer. Nothing I say here should be taken as legal advice. Nothing you say to me is confidential or protected by attorney client privilege. If you rely on what anyone says on a blog instead of getting your own lawyer, you are an idiot. @citizen. So how come you didn't know the difference between civil and criminal contempt?

He hated any type of hypocrisy, gave you the truth as he saw it--he never relented until his dying day. His work operates on many, many levels. Here's a short summary about him: <a href="http://folkandfaith.com/smf/index.php?action=printpage;topic=1059.0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://folkandfaith.com/smf/index.php?action=prin...</a rel="nofollow">" target="_blank">http://folkandfaith.com/smf/index.php?action=prin...</a></a> Celine's novels are fascinating; if you read them you get a good feeling of the underbelly of the times, increasingly delivered in misanthropic slang and diatribes against all groups and classes of people as he viewed them from the intelligent gutter snipe perspective and through the eyes of his many characters.

I see where you found this quote, but Bauman simply makes the statement, I would like to see it in Celine's writing. It's possible I just haven't come across it yet. Bauman is a Polish Jew who went to England to escape Polish anti-antisemitism Wiki reports.
