Cleanth Brooks at the United States Air Force Academy April 11-12, 1978,

Abstract

Mr. Cleanth Brooks's visit to the United States Air Force Academy marks a milestone in the Department of English's history: he is the first critic of literature to participate in the Cadet Forum on Public Affairs' Distinguished Speakers Program, a program designed to present to cadets views and opinions of leading figures from divers disciplines. Not mentioned in his formal acceptance of 15 November 1977 (p. vii) was his kind acceptance of our proposal to talk informally in individual classes prior to his formal address to the Cadet Wing. Consequently, English Department members arranged complete coverage of his two-day visit. This volume records that visit and Mr. Brook's remarks. A brief index provides references to titles and key subjects covered in these remarks.
