Papers of Susan Glaspell, 1912-1924.

The collection contains the manuscripts of two poems "Though stone be broken," and "The shining rocks (dedicated to Arthur Davison Ficke)" and extracts from the Parnassus letters as collected by Edna Baldwin Kent. Letters of George Cram Cook, Edna Kenton, and Glaspell describe the Cooks' pilgrimage to Greece; the Provincetown Players including finances, current productions, and management by Mary Eleanor Fitzgerald; and the feelings of Glaspell after Cook's death. Eugene O'Neill and Floyd Dell are mentioned as are the plays "Mr. Faust," "The Ape, " and "The Verge." Glaspell requests and receives a copy of "Thus spake Zarathustra" in English. The collection also contains an interview with Glaspell by Alice Rohe, a review of "Chains of dew," a 1915 notebook of Glaspell containing character outlines, and three untitled poems by Cook.
