Scope
The Fugitives were "a group of young poets and critics formed shortly after World War I at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn., some of whom later became distinguished men of letters. The group, led by the poet and critic John Crowe Ransom, devoted itself to the writing and discussion of poetry and published a bimonthly magazine, The Fugitive (1922–25), edited by poet Allen Tate. Other important members of the group were the poet, essayist, and critic Donald Davidson and the novelist and poet Robert Penn Warren."
