Fellow-Travelers: Culture as Foreign Policy in the Early Cold War
Although the Cold War’s central confrontations were military and political, the U.S. and the Soviet bloc also faced off in the cultural arena. FELLOW-TRAVELERS: CULTURE AS FOREIGN POLICY IN THE EARLY COLD WAR (a scholarly book) looks at this conflict through the lens of the literary establishment: the poets, writers, critics, publishers, and professors who served in the cultural Cold War. The NEH Summer Stipend will defray travel and lodging expenses for a one-week trip to Washington, D.C. and a two-week stay in New York City for research in the archives of the Ford Foundation, State Department, CIA, and Committee for Cultural Freedom.
