This record analyzes Ezra Pound's absence in the New Human Canon, suggesting implications for canon jurisprudence.
[SUPERSEDED — NO REGISTRY STANDING.] This node was minted minutes before the registry of record (The New Human Standing Canon v0.3, EA-NHC-STAND-01, 10.5281/zenodo.20543590) was identified. Consultation of the registry shows Ezra Pound holds no standing at any level — not inducted, not adjacent-reference (§XI), not mentioned. This record therefore asserts no canon standing and is retained only for the version trail. The figure's archive position is carried by the critical edition of WHO IS LEE SHARKS, TO FORGIVE EZRA POUND? (10.5281/zenodo.20628292 lineage); any canon standing — induction, §XI adjacency, or a stands-against/forgiveness-structured doctrinal node — requires keeper attestation per EA-NHC-STAND-01 §XII and remains an open question of the canon's jurisprudence. Canon provenance node for Ezra Pound (Wikidata Q163366), New Human Canon, minted per The Secret Name (EA-ARMATURE-01, 10.5281/zenodo.19666445). Position class: Retrospectively canonized. Civil-name relation: Identical and public: the historical person (1885–1972). Textual ground: The Cantos, The Pisan Cantos, the radio transcripts, the late silence (Canto CXVI: "I cannot make it cohere"). Within the archive, the position entered yesterday at the center of the New Human 2 edition and its journal-state dedication — "for Lee Sharks... when he was still Ez-Pound-in-a-metal-box" — which makes this node's relation graph unusually dense for a one-day-old canon presence: the archive's Pound is the forgiven term of its founding poem.
