“An Exciting Spiral”: Robert Penn Warren On Race And Community, Steven D. Ealy
“An Exciting Spiral”: Robert Penn Warren On Race And Community, Steven D. Ealy
Robert Penn Warren Studies
Warren's contribution to I'll Take My Stand, "The Briar Patch," has been the subject of controversy from its beginning when Donald Davidson tried to exclude it from the collection on the grounds that it was too progressive. Later in life, Warren distanced himself from it by characterizing it as a defense of segregation. However, a closer reading of "The Briar Patch" reveals that Warren set such a high standard for "separate but equal" that he ultimately undermines that doctrine and prepares the way for his re-examination in Segregation and Who Speaks for the Negro?

Working In The Theater With Robert Penn Warren, Aaron Frankel
Working In The Theater With Robert Penn Warren, Aaron Frankel
Robert Penn Warren Studies
A major figure in the making of the contemporary American theater reminisces about his collaborations with Robert Penn Warren, documenting their relationship with previously unpublished correspondence and suggesting that Warren, had he written more for the stage, might well have had a shaping influence on the evolution of modem drama.
From Fox To Hedgehog: Warrens All The King's Men As A Gloss On Tolstoys View Of History, Polly Detels
From Fox To Hedgehog: Warrens All The King's Men As A Gloss On Tolstoys View Of History, Polly Detels
Robert Penn Warren Studies
This essay explores Warren's All the King's Men as a figurative gloss on the discussion of human freedom and responsibility appearing in Leo Tolstoy's second epilogue to War and Peace. Isaiah Berlin's 1953 work on Tolstoy, The Fox and the Hedgehog, provides a theoretical framework for this analysis.

The Text Of The "Restored" Edition Of All The King's Men, Noel Polk
The Text Of The "Restored" Edition Of All The King's Men, Noel Polk
Robert Penn Warren Studies
All the King's Men appeared in 1946 in a text that had been changed in hundreds of ways by Harcourt editors; cumulatively these editorial interventions changed the novel in serious ways, mostly in changing the character of the narrator, Jack Burden, and his relationship to the events he narrates. The "restored" edition, published in 2001, indeed restores Warren's original text wherever it was possible, and so makes available a text much closer to what Warren had written initially. This essay offers a general explanation of the differences between the two versions of All the King's Men, a detailed listing of …
Le Silence Du Bonheur And The House Of Forgiveness: Space And Silence In Flood, Aimee Berger
Le Silence Du Bonheur And The House Of Forgiveness: Space And Silence In Flood, Aimee Berger
Robert Penn Warren Studies
Katrin Meise reformulates Wittgenstein's famous dictum-"What we cannot speak about, we must pass over in silence"-in a way that is particularly germane to a reading of Warren's novel Flood: ''What we pass over in silence, we must speak about." Warren establishes a complex aesthetic that incorporates silence into the circuit of discourse, forcing characters to confront the limitations of language, even as they realize the redemptive power of telling a "true" story.
Philosophers, Fools, And Kings: Notes On The Brothers Karamazov And All The King's Men, C. Jason Smith
Philosophers, Fools, And Kings: Notes On The Brothers Karamazov And All The King's Men, C. Jason Smith
Robert Penn Warren Studies
A comparative analysis of Fyodor Dostoyevsky's The Brother's Karamazov (1879-80) and Robert Penn Warren's All the King's Men (1946) based on the analysis of archetypal characters found in the work of both authors. The Philosophers, whose world-view is based in post-enlightenment reason, operate in a dialectical relationship with the Fools who interact with the world through faith. Culturally, the resolution of the dialectic between reason and faith yields the synthesis of the King who embodies reason and faith, the temporal and the eternal, in his position of god-given power. However, both Dostoyevsky and Warren actively reject the social imperative towards …
