| dc.description | Finding aid for a collection. Collection description: Rufus Wilmot Griswold was born February 13, 1815 in Benson, Vermont. He was an editor and literary critic best known for his anthologies of American poetry and prose which were widely disseminated in the mid 19th century and for his often tumultuous and contentious relationships, both personal and literary. The Rufus Wilmot Griswold Collection (1815-1857) consists of one Hollinger box (0.417 linear feet) and includes holograph letters, photographs, articles and photostats of letters written by and to Rufus Wilmot Griswold. The collection was formed in the 1930's by Joy Bayless of Nashville, Tennessee while researching her biography of Griswold, which was published by Vanderbilt University Press in 1943. No records have survived as to when or how the Collection was acquired by the Vanderbilt Library. | en_US |
