CRITIQUE
James Agee in a nutshell: "James Agee is described as a wide-ranging, rather self- destructive writer who distinguished himself in poetry, screenplays, and both fiction and nonfiction before dying at age forty-five. Kenneth Seib, in his volume James Agee: Promise and Fulfillment, described his subject as "a versatile and accomplished artist whose mind played freely over all possible media of expression and whose ability with the English language was exceeded by none of his contemporaries.'" After graduation, Agee wrote for

(RUFUS) JAMES AGEE
"I know I am making the choice most dangerous to an artist in valuing life above art." W ith these words James Agee acknowledged the restless journey his biography would encompass. Poet, novelist, journalist, film critic, and social activist, Agee would lead an unorthodox, hard-driving life that would result in an early death. So voracious was he for experience that in valuing life, as he put it, he could not help but shape the penetrating, passionate, and colorful poetry and prose he produced. Of Huguenot ancestry, James Agee was born in Knoxville, Tennessee in 1909, the son of a postal worker who was killed in the prime of his life in an automobile accident. The loss of his father marked James Agee both short term and long term. Thirty years later it would form the kernel of the novel which is the cornerstone of his fame (A DEATH IN THE FAMILY), but more immediately it resulted in what the author would later see as an expulsion from a childhood Eden. In 1916 Agee was sent to an Episcopal boarding school in the Appalachians, Saint Andrews Seminary. Not unlike James Joyce's experience wit the Jesuits, the years spent in this monastic environment would shape and scar Agee for the rest of his days. Tormented by his sense of isolation and abandonment by his mother, he, nevertheless, found solace in the rigorous academic curriculum, and he formed his closest and most enduring friendship with his mentor, Father Flye, who became a surrogate parent, confidant, and spiritual inspiration for the remainder of Agee's forty-four years.

The mere attempt to examine my own confusion would consume volumes. Understanding, and action proceeding from understanding and guided by it, is one weapon against the world's bombardment, the one medicine, the one instrument by which liberty, health, and joy may be shaped . . . in the individual, and in the race. He used this great, sad, motionless face to suggest various related things: a one-track mind near the track's end of pure insanity; mulish imperturbability under the wildest of circumstances; how dead a human being can get and still be alive . . . As a whole part of "psychological education" it needs to be remembered that a neurosis can be valuable; also that "adjustment" to a sick and insane environment is of itself not "health" but sickness and insanity.

Agee By Georgia Steinhardt I
n his work James Agee: Promise and Fulfillment , literary critic Kenneth Seib describes Agee as a "versatile and accomplished artist whose mind played freely over all possible media of expression and whose abilities with the English language was exceeded by none of his contemporaries" (qtd. in "James Agee" 148). Agee's medium of expression encompassed everything from poetry to screenwriting, and his drive for perfection lead to numerous awards. James Agee was born November 27, 1909 in Knoxville, Tennessee; however, Agee did not remain in Knoxville for his entire childhood. As a teenager, Agee attended several boarding schools, eventually entering the exclusive Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire. Agee was later accepted by Harvard University where his writing technique was influenced by the work of then visiting instructor I.A. Richards, a proponent of 'New Criticism' in literary theory. Richards asserted critics should pay close attention to the "precise details of the text," and Agee reflected this theory in his writings (Barry 15). Agee created complex images that could be fully understood by the reader even if the reader failed to have prior knowledge or experience with Agee's subject matter. While still at Harvard, Agee wrote the poetry which was eventually complied into his first major literary work
