When Robert Penn Warren asks, what / Is man but his passion? he exemplifies the type of artist that the British Romantics celebrated. Poems of Pure Imagination traces the development of Warrens poetic craft as influenced by that movements ideals.--BOOK JACKET. Lesa Carnes Corrigan lays out clearly the six-decades-long progression in Warrens Romantic vision - a combination of Wordsworths tempered aesthetics and Yeatss awareness of historical violence and modern estrangement. She demonstrates how closely the poet associated his most deeply felt intuitions about art and life with the overarching philosophies of the Romantics.--BOOK JACKET.

Acknowledgments
The basic premise of this study is not altogether original, but I hope that my careful scrutiny and detailed reading of Warren's poetry result in a solid and helpful piece of scholarship, something that both lovers of as well as newcomers to Warren's poetry can find useful and enjoyable. In addition to the scholars whose works are noted in the text (and without whose pioneering studies this work would not have been possible), I am grateful to many colleagues and friends who have encouraged me through the years. I would especially like to thank Hugh Ruppersburg at the University of Georgia for his patience, guidance, wisdom, and general good humor. Under his tutelage and careful eye, my study blossomed into the work we have here. I gratefully acknowledge the assistance of Anne Williams, Douglas Anderson, Hubert McAlexander, and Blue Calhoun at the University of Georgia, all of whom continue to support my scholarly work. Of course, many dear friends and relatives gave me the love and encouragement I needed during the long days and nights of vision and revision: Diana Barrett; Dennis Michael and Phyllis Corrigan; Darren and Cris Felty; Gayle Hannah; Charley Henley; Emily Hipchen; Maura Mandyck; Kenneth Millard; Eileen and Chris Perillo; and Lynn, Jeff, Christopher, and Brandon Thrash. To my colleagues at the University of Alabama I owe special thanks, particularly to Rob-

ert Halli and William Ulmer, who prompted my efforts and applauded my successes every step of the way. I would also like to thank John Easterly at Louisiana State University Press. Our mutual love of baseball as well as his generosity and helpfulness created a most felicitous editor/author relationship. And to Dennis Corrigan I extend my heartfelt and sincere gratitude for all his patience and care.
