Abstract

The problem undertaken by this study is an investigation of the use of folk materials by Benét, and the values to be observed in such a use. From the evidence to be assembled here, it is hoped to create firmer ground for a final estimate of that author's worth. It is a problem which does not call for an analysis of the writer's entire range of powers, or his lack of them. It does, however, seek to contribute something in one particular field which otherwise might, for a time, be overlooked.
