(24 months)
No comprehensive scholarly edition of Robert Frost's letters exist. We will rectify this omission by the publication of "The Collected Letters of Robert Frost," edited by Robert Faggen, Mark Richardson and Donald Sheehey to be published by Harvard University Press as part of a multi-volume "Writing of Robert Frost." In his correspondence, Frost often reveals much of his thinking about poetics, politics and religion, as well as aspects of his personal and family life. The collected letters and annotation will bring into full view many aspects of the poet's life currently unavailable to scholars, students, biographers and general readers. |
