Everything about Dorothy Shakespear totally explained
Dorothy Shakespear (
1886 -
1973) was an
English artist, the daughter of
Olivia Shakespear (a novelist and sometime lover of
W.B. Yeats) and the wife of the poet
Ezra Pound.
She was a member of the
Vorticism movement, and some of her work appeared in its journal
BLAST.
Shakespear and Pound married on
April 20th 1914. They moved to
Paris in 1920, remaining married despite Pound's relationship with violinist
Olga Rudge from 1923 onward. In 1926, Shakespear went on a visit to
Egypt and came back pregnant; her son, Omar, whose father is unknown, was raised by his grandmother. In 1924, she and Pound settled in
Rapallo,
Italy.
After
World War II, when Pound was incarcerated in a mental hospital after having been indicted for treasonous activities against the
United States and in support of
Mussolini's
fascist regime, Dorothy Pound moved to
Washington in 1946 to be near her husband, and thereafter had legal control of his estate. After his release, twelve years later, they returned to Italy, but her husband moved to
Venice with Olga Rudge while she remained alone in Rapallo.
