Book by Tim Fulford selected as winner of annual Warren-Brooks Award
Wordsworth's Poetry, 1815-1845 , written by Tim Fulford and published by the University of Pennsylvania Press, has been selected as the 2019 winner of the Robert Penn Warren-Cleanth Brooks Award for outstanding literary scholarship and criticism. The book award selection committee was deeply impressed with Fulford’s innovative use of close reading, a technique that Brooks and Warren advocated through critical texts like Understanding Poetry (1938).

The Warren-Brooks Award, presented each year by the Robert Penn Warren Center at WKU , was established by the Warren family to honor an outstanding work of literary scholarship that embodies the spirit, scope, and integrity of the work produced by Warren and his frequent collaborator, Brooks.
