A man of no fortune, and with a name to come

Also from Canto 1 (Pound):

Unsheathed the narrow sword,
I sat to keep off the impetuous impotent dead,
Till I should hear Tiresias.
But first Elpenor came, our friend Elpenor,
Unburied, cast on the wide earth,
Limbs that we left in the house of Circe,
Unwept, unwrapped in the sepulchre, since toils urged other.
Pitiful spirit. And I cried in hurried speech:
"Elpenor, how art thou come to this dark coast?
"Cam'st thou afoot, outstripping seamen?"
And he in heavy speech:
"Ill fate and abundant wine. I slept in Crice's ingle.
"Going down the long ladder unguarded,
"I fell against the buttress,
"Shattered the nape-nerve, the soul sought Avernus.
"But thou, O King, I bid remember me, unwept, unburied,
"Heap up mine arms, be tomb by sea-bord, and inscribed:
"A man of no fortune, and with a name to come.
"And set my oar up, that I swung mid fellows."

Then Anticlea came

A lovely and ghostly circularity. Ezra Pound, Canto I:

And Anticlea came, whom I beat off, and then Tiresias Theban,
Holding his golden wand, knew me, and spoke first:
"A second time? why? man of ill star,
"Facing the sunless dead and this joyless region?
"Stand from the fosse, leave me my bloody bever
"For soothsay."
And I stepped back,
And he strong with the blood, said then: "Odysseus
"Shalt return through spiteful Neptune, over dark seas,
"Lose all companions." Then Anticlea came.

Justice.

There's a very touching moment near the end of both The Ring (2002) and Ringu (1998) where the female-maternal protagonist gets to the heart of the matter, finds the virginal youth (brutally misunderstood and mistreated in her own time), and digs her up from the well. The sentimentality is near overwhelming. The original infraction is brought to light and the young girl's story is told.

It would appear to be a reestablishment of the law: Moral law necessitates access to the truth regarding the original transgressive act, and where applicable, those guilty parties exposed are punished.

Though the murderers (no longer living or present) cannot face punishment, at least the truth is uncovered here. But as we all know, the ghost comes back the very next day, which is of course the surprise twist of the films. Up until this point, the narrative is one centered around moral rectitude: teens are dying, and the source is found to be a ghost or ghostly incarnation. The ghost must pay. Then the ghost is found to be yet another victim of an equally appalling injustice; now this must be set right. Except redeeming and acknowledging the ghostchild does not retire her killing streak.

The only solution: a propagation of terror, a perpetual state of law disjuncture.
