Robert Robbins Literary Web Site

Welcome to the web site devoted to the literary interests of Robert Robbins. Here you will find original essays on my favorite poets and  bibliographies of my extensive book collection. I prefer French literature and poets because the French literary tradition has pursued a more interesting course than American literature. The French have been more daring in their exploration of the unconscious and they still believe in artistic genius. American literature seems more conservative to me. It values writing as a craft and devalues the writer as an exceptional individual. I have recently added an essay on William Blake and plan to write about Maurice Maeterlinck.

This web site was designed to look best at 800x600 screen resolution. I am using the Calligrapher Regular font for the headings and Verdana and Rory fonts for the text. Please install these fonts on your system if you wish to view this web site in all its typographic glory. The background image was created in Corel Painter 8 using an Impasto paintbrush to create a thick white brush stroke.
