Arthur Hawley Scouten collection, 1944-1987.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/173863173

The collection consists of the papers of Arthur H. Scouten from 1944-1987. The papers include correspondence from Robert Penn Warren, Cleanth Brooks, Thomas Hazzard Thompson, Allen Tate, and John Updike to Arthur H. Scouten, and from Scouten to Linda M. Matthews. The Warren letters, dating from 1944-1986, relate primarily to Warren's professional life as a teacher and writer, as well as to Scouten's career as a professor of English. Warren's letters contain comments upon the work of other scholars whom Scouten brought to his attention. Although Scouten's replies are not included, the letter from Scouten to Matthews helps explain the context in which Warren's letters were written. In the letters Scouten is referred to as "Joe," a nickname he received from Senator Huey Long of Louisiana. Warren signed his letters, "Red." Also included are two literary articles.
