Fugitive Agrarian Collection

The Fugitive Magazine, April 1922

This collection contains 1.67 linear feet of materials on the Fugitive Poets and the Nashville Agrarians.  Most of the materials have to do with the years in the 1920’s when the Fugitive poet group was formed and the resulting poems, manuscripts, and correspondence. In addition there are a few items, mostly articles that concern the Agrarian group. The Collection contains many items of unique interest including poems that were read at the Fugitive meetings and correspondence that records the national and international interest in the Fugitive Magazine as it was published in the years 1922 - 1925.
