The Algonquin became famous in the 1920s as the meeting place of
The Vicious Circle--or Algonquin Round Table--comprising literary
worthies such as Dorothy Parker, Alexander Woollcott and Heywood Broun. Labeled "the revolting playwrights"
by Alexander Woollcott,(4) the founders of the New Playwrights'
were John Dos Passos, John Howard Lawson, Em Jo Basshe, Francis Edward
Faragoh, and Gold himself. Although the purveyors of interwar middlebrow culture that
Rubin touches upon-the aforementioned, as well as Dorothy Canfield
Fisher, Mortimer Adler, Alexander Woollcott, and Mark Van Doren-are, as
Rubin notes, victims" of canon formation, they can also be seen as
canonizers themselves. |
