Pound claims to give "the straight facts" by using TJ's own words, he selects and arranges fragments, edits the language, and arranges the fragments in the context of an argument which portrays TJ as a leader in favor of an unblocked flow of money and knowledge.
His partial TJ, if not strictly historical, is contained in a historical vision and is used for the "cultural work" of an epic poet.
