Madison Julius Cawein : Papers, 1886-1928.

Most of the material was collected by Otto Arthur Rothert in preparation for his book: The Story of a Poet: Madison Cawein (1921). Cawein's correspondence discusses his literary work and that of others, especially R.E. Gibson; local, personal, and family news; visits to New York and Washington; meetings with many literary people of the period; publication and reviews of his books; and the sale of his library and letters. Otto A. Rothert's correspondence, 1915-1928, is chiefly about his biography of Cawein. The collection also includes publisher's contracts, scrapbooks, photographs, typewritten and handwritten copies of Cawein's poetry; his translations of works by German poets; and memorabilia. Correspondents include Robert E. Lee Gibson, William Dean Howells, Eric Pape, Jessie B. Rittenhouse, Clinton Scollard, Sara Teasdale and Henry Van Dyke.
