Note:"These lectures were found among James Dickey's papers by Matthew J. Bruccoli, the poet's literary executor.... They were not originally in written format. They are transcriptions of Dickey's taped oral presentations and thus include the repetitions, digressions, and misstatements to be expected in a public forum lasting two semesters. For most of the class sessions, Dickey spoke from a few notes jotted down both to guide the discussion and to ensure an informal atmosphere...." -- from Editorial Note.
