Untitled[edit]

I'm curious as to why the Amercan Modern Library's citation of All the King's Men was removed. According to this page, the information is accurate (it's #36 on the list). RivGuySC 21:27, 6 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Sorry, I made numerous such removals last night, but I missed the edit remark for the occasional article, and this was one of them - please see Talk:Modern Library for details. -- Simonides 03:48, 7 Aug 2004 (UTC)


I was wondering if anyone here is familiar with his work "Rattlesnake Country" and could offer some interpretation? Friday 25 March, 2005.



Amazing that someone could write an article about Robert Penn Warren and never once mention the word "Louisiana."

Broken Links[edit]

Some links are broken with site upgrades and should be fixed I would be up for this in a day or two, but if anyone is reading this now and is willing please validate the links.

Last Name[edit]

Is Warren or Penn Warren the last name? It's not consistent in the article.


Politics[edit]

Made a small correction on Warren's politics. The previous version indicated that Warren was more liberal than his erstwhile Agrarian colleagues all along; in fact, he was fairly pro-segregationist in the essay "The Briar Patch" from I'll Take My Stand. Later on, he adopted more liberal views on the subject of race. But the previous version of this article made it sound as though his views were bien pensant all along.

Democracy & Poetry[edit]

Jefferson Lectures gives "Poetry and Democracy" as the title of Warren's 1974 lecture, singular. As we say.

I updated our {{dead}} reference for the book to read thus:

"Democracy and Poetry: Robert Penn Warren" (publisher display). Harvard University Press. Retrieved September 7, 2013.

The default display includes "About This Book", which begins 'In these two essays ...' and does not mention lecture(s). I suspect that the lecture content was revised and expanded as well as divided. Someone who knows should revise what we say. --P64 (talk) 17:47, 7 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
