Some of his works include: Brother to Dragons-A Tale in Verse and Voices The signficantly revised version of Brother to Dragons appeared in 1979, twenty-six years after the original. It is, Warren wrote, "in some important senses, a new work." Told in the distinct voices of characters long dead and now gathered at an unspecified place and time, the poem recalls events leading to and resulting from the 1811 murder of a young slave by Thomas Jefferson's nephew. "R.P.W." is the narrator of the versified tale, whose poignant ending brings not only reconciliation among the ghostly figures but healing for Warren's persona as well.

   http://www.bkstore.com/yale/fac/warren3.html
   
   Extractions: All the King's Men When All the King 's Men was first published in 1946, Sinclair Lewis pronounced it "massive, impressive...one of our few national galleries of character." Diana Trilling, reviewing it for the Nation , wrote, "For sheer virtuosity, for the sustained drive of its prose, for the speed and the evenness of its pacing, for its precision of language...I doubt indeed whether it can be matched in American fiction." The Washington Post declared, "If the game of naming the Great American Novel is still being played anywhere, Warren's All the King's Men would easily make the final rounds." Set in the '30s, this Pulitzer Prize-winning novel traces the rise and fall of demagogue Willie Stark, a fictional character who resembles the real-life Huey "Kingfish" Long of Louisiana. Stark begins his political career as an idealistic man of the people but soon becomes corrupted by success and caught between dreams of service and an insatiable lust for power. The model for 1996's best-selling political novel, Primary Colors, and as relevant today as it was fifty years ago, All the King's Men is one of the classics of American literature.

   Extractions: Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce . Privately Printed [1982]. One of seven copies, signed by the author, of a recent work by the poet who has recently been named America's first poet laureate. Warren, who was born in Kentucky and studied with John Crowe Ransom, joined the Fugitive Movement with Allen Tate and others. Their concern to preserve the agrarian ideals of a proud and individualistic people is inherent in Warren's portrayal of the Nez Perce chief. According to a "Note" prefaced to the work, the tribe, who received Lewis and Clark "in great friendship" and provided them with supplies, were not warlike and never harmed a white man "until forced." The Federal government had treaties guaranteeing the sacred homeland of the Nez Perce, but Chief Joseph died in 1904, "a prisoner on a reservation in the state of Washington The reservation physician reported the death as caused by a broken heart." Warren used journal cuttings, newspaper clippings, military reports, treaty excerpts and powerful, often incantatory verse in the poem, a trade edition of which appeared in 1983.

    Extractions: Random House, $30 ISBN 0394569571 Review by Roger Bishop Robert Penn Warren (1905-1989) was one of the twentieth century's most eminent American men of letters. He was a distinguished novelist and poet, literary critic, essayist, short story writer, and coeditor of numerous textbooks. He was a founding editor of The Southern Review . He was a popular teacher at Yale and other schools. Also, "Red" Warren, as he was known to his friends, and Cleanth Brooks influenced the teaching of literature to a generation of college students through their advocacy of close textual reading or, as it was popularly known, the New Criticism. Warren hated that term. Not a system, he wrote, "but intelligence, tact, discipline, honesty, sensitivity these are the things we have to depend on, after all, to give us what we prize in criticism, the insight." Warren received many honors including three Pulitzer prizes, one for fiction ( All the King's Men , 1946) and two for poetry ( Promises , 1957, and Now and Then , 1978), still the only person to win in both categories. He also received the prestigious National Medal for Literature and the Bollingen Prize for Poetry, a MacArthur Prize "genius" grant, and was named the country's first Poet Laureate in 1986. Warren was able to achieve as much as he did while overcoming formidable obstacles the loss of sight in his left eye and a difficult and painful first marriage.

    Excerpts from Understanding Poetry An Anthology  
    http://www.english.upenn.edu/~afilreis/50s/understanding-poetry.html
    
    Extractions: New York: Henry Holt and Company (revised edition, 1950; Original edition, 1938) See an excerpt from this anthology on political reference in poetry, specifically Andrew Marvell's "Horation Ode." This book has been conceived on the assumption that if poetry is worth teaching at all it is worth teaching as poetry. The temptation to make a substitute for the poem as the object of study is usually overpowering. The substitutes are various, but the most common ones are: 1. Paraphrase of logical and narrative content; 2. Study of biographical and historical materials; 3. Inspirational and didactic interpretation. Of course, paraphrase may be necessary as a preliminary step in the reading of a poem, and a study of the biographical and historical background may do much to clarify interpretation; but these things should be considered as means and not as ends. And though one may consider a poem as an instance of historical or ethical documentation, the poem in itself, if literature is to be studied as literature, remains finally the object for study. Moreover, even if the interest is in the poem as a historical or ethical document, there is a prior consideration: one must grasp the poem as a literary construct before it can offer any real illumination as a document. We have said that a theme in poetry manifests itself in constantly varying ways. Among these manifestations, of course, we find the use of explicit statement as one possible means. For instance, in the "Ode to a Nightingale," which we have already analyzed (pp, 338-45), Keats makes the explicit statement
