    Survey of Literature
    In all the good Greek of Plato
    I lack my roast beef and potato.
    A better man was Aristotle,
    Pulling steady on the bottle.
    I dip my hat to Chaucer,
    Swilling soup from his saucer,
    And to Master Shakespeare
    Who wrote big on small beer.
    The abstemious Wordsworth Subsisted on a curd's-worth, But a slick one was Tennyson, Putting gravy on his venison. What these men had to eat and drink Is what we say and what we think. The influence of Milton Came wry out of Stilton. Sing a song for Percy Shelley, Drowned in pale lemon jelly, And for precious John Keats, Dripping blood of pickled beets. Then there was poor Willie Blake, He foundered on sweet cake. God have mercy on the sinner Who must write with no dinner, No gravy and no grub, No pewter and no pub, No belly and no bowels, Only consonants and vowels.

    John Crowe Ransom Papers
    John Crowe Ransom, noted poet, critic, educator and editor, was born April 30, 1888 in Pulaski, Tennessee. He graduated from Vanderbilt University in 1909, was a Rhodes Scholar at Christ Church, Oxford, 1910-1913, and joined the faculty of Vanderbilt in 1914, where he taught English until 1937. While at Vanderbilt, Ransom was a major figure in the Fugitive and Agrarian Groups and their publications, The Fugitive (1922-1925) and I'll Take My Stand (1930). In 1937, Ransom accepted a position at Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio as professor of poetry and later founded and edited an important literary quarterly, The Kenyon Review (1939-1959). Ransom retired in 1959, but remained active in literary pursuits until his death in 1974 at the age of eighty-six. His works of poetry include Poems About God Chills and Fever (1924), and Selected Poems
    The acquisition of the John Crowe Ransom portion of the Stuart Wright Collection during 1988 brought to Vanderbilt University what is probably the largest single collection of Ransom material in one repository. Ransom's biographer, Thomas Daniel Young (Gentleman In A Dustcoat), noted that Ransom saved few letters from his wide range of correspondents and "even fewer of the manuscripts of his poems and essays, and almost none of the material relating to his literary career" (Young, xvi). Though this collection is fragmentary, it is somewhat surprising that even this much material has survived, given Ransom's habits concerning his papers. Fortunately, he did not get around to disposing of these materials, most of which Wright obtained from the Ransom family.

Poems and Essays John Crowe Ransom Born in Pulaski, Tennessee, John Crowe Ransom received an undergraduate degree from Vanderbilt University in 1909 and studied as a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford and served in World war I. He became a professor at Vanderbilt and later taught at Kenyon College , where he founded and edited The Kenyon Review , and remained there until his retirement in 1959. Ransom published three slim volumes of highly acclaimed poetry, but after 1927 principally devoted himself to critical writing. He was a guiding member of the Fugitives, a group of writers who were wary of the social and cultural changes they were witnessing in the South during the early part of the 20th century. The Fugitives sought to preserve a traditional aesthetic ideal which firmly rooted in classical values and forms. As a critic, he had an enormous influence on an entire generation of poets and fellow academics, who subscribed to the doctrines he laid out as the "new criticism." His ideals were John Donne and the English metaphysical poetry of the 17th century. He believed in the poetic virtues of irony and complexity, and the importance of adhering to traditional prosodic techniques of meter, stanza, and rhyme. His own poems are marked by irony and a spare classicism, and a concern with the inevitable decay of all things human.

In 1914 Ransom accepted an instructorship in English at Vanderbilt, where he immediately began the method of teaching that, through texts written in the late 1930s and early 1940s by his former students Cleanth Brooks and Robert Penn Warren (the "New Critics"), was to dominate the teaching of literature in American colleges and universities for nearly 30 years: close analysis of individual texts with emphasis on the uses of language. Except for army service during World War I, followed by a term at the University of Grenoble, Ransom remained in the English department at Vanderbilt until 1937 (teaching many summer sessions in other colleges and programs).

    Classroom Issues and Strategies
    Focusing on Ransom's use of language, his wit and irony, seems to be the best route to exploring his themes on a level that students will respond to. Moving from the particular to the universal works even for the poems that seem to be fairly abstract; certainly the theme of "The Equilibrists" is one that students can react to once they have discovered or uncovered it. Using the kind of close analysis practiced by the New Critics is invaluable in studying Ransom's poetry. Reading Ransom's poetry aloud is a very good strategy, since reading aloud reveals a lot of the liveliness that students sometimes miss on the printed page and also illuminates the ironic tone. Students seem to be interested in the themes of transience and mutability and in the dichotomy of the body and the soul. They also sometimes get involved with Ransom's work by following up allusions to myths and legends.
    Major Themes, Historical Perspectives, and Personal Issues
    Themes: tradition, ritual, myth; mutability; the transience of life and love; death; the dichotomy of body and soul.

"Ransom produced his best and best-known poetry in the 1920s, including 'Bells for John Whiteside's Daughter,' 'Philomela,' 'Piazza Piece,' 'Equilibrists,' and 'Janet Waking.' His poetry is known for its tendency to expose the ironies of existence, primarily through short lyrics about often somber or serious domestic scenes."
