How can we prove that Ezra Pound uses dramatic monologue in his poetry?

Question

Development of Dramatic Monologue in the 20th century American Poetry .

Answer 1

I don't understand. Surely you can get a book of his poems and find out whether or not any of them are dramatic monologues. You don't even have to read most of them, just check each to see if it is one. I just found one, a dramatic monologue in sestina form: http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sestina-altaforte/

Answer 2

a dramatic monologue is when the poet pretends to be someone else (usually a character from history) and speaks in his voice.

in the sestina 'altaforte' pound pretends to be the medieval poet bertran de born, then again in 'the ballad of the goodly fere' he pretends to be one of Christ's disciples.

so yes, he used dramatic monologue.
