Selected Letters of Robert Penn Warren

Angebote / Angebote:

Volume Four of the SELECTED LETTERS OF ROBERT PENN WARREN covers a crucial time of personal and professional rejuvenation in Warren's life. During the fifteen-year period spanned by this correspondence, he completed BROTHERS TO DRAGONS, SEGREGATION: THE INNER CONFLICT IN THE SOUTH, and WHO SPEAKS FOR THE NEGRO? As these titles suggest, these years were marked by Warren's immersion in American history and his maturing interest in race relations. They also saw his return to lyric poetry, after a ten-year hiatus, with the publication of the Pulitzer Prizewinning collection PROMISES. Along with seeing the completion of some of his most successful work, this period was a time of momentous change in Warren's life, including his move to Yale University, his marriage to his second wife, Eleanor, and the birth of his two children. As a chronicle of Warren's thoughts on his family, his work, his friends, the state of literary studies, and the culture at large, these letters are invaluable.
