About This Item
[Middlebury, Vt.: Middlebury College Press, 1935]. 4 pages. Original printed blue wraps. [22.4 cm.] Near very good. Wraps a bit faded and with some minor soiling. Leaves slightly toned and with some faint traces of foxing or soiling. FIRST EDITION. An address delivered while Allen was serving as a member of the faculty of the Bread Loaf School of English, a summer graduate program at Middlebury College, Vermont. Allen also participated in the Bread Loaf Writers' Conference. In this address, he discusses the "Bread Loaf idea," which he describes, in part: "The idea that literature, that writing, is a constant state of becoming, that it went on in the past, that it continues now, and that it stretches into an almost but yet not entirely unpredictable future." --p. 3. Scarce.
