Nine experts on Cold War history offer commentaries about John Lewis Gaddis's Pulitzer Prize-winning biography of George F. Kennan, the first head of the U.S. State Department's Policy Planning Staff. The commentators come from several countries and offer a wide range of perspectives about Gaddis's George F. Kennan: An American Life, published by Penguin Books in 2011. Although most of the commentators express highly favorable assessments of the book, they also raise numerous points of criticism. Two of the commentators, Barton J. Bernstein and Anders Stephanson, present extended critiques of Gaddis's biography. The forum concludes with a reply by Gaddis to all the commentaries, especially those by Bernstein and Stephanson.

Abstract:
Abstract In 2001, Katharine Graham, former publisher of the Washington Post and Newsweek, died as a consequence of a fall while on a trip to give a speech. She had published a Pulitzer Prize-winning autobiography in 1997,1 depicting a life that was as unscripted and accidental as my own. Graham, whose father and husband were publishers of the Washington Post, became the publisher of that newspaper herself quite suddenly and unexpectedly when her husband committed suicide. Graham said that “the only reason I had my job was the good luck of my birth and the bad luck of my husband’s death.”

Abstract:
Abstract Ever since the rise of Women’s Studies and feminist theory, scholars have been continually revising their critical interests ill Edith Wharton, one of the few twentieth-century female American authors canonized by the 1970s. Crucial to these reassessments has been the assumption that Wharton celebrated women’s sexuality and power. R. W B. Lewis’s Pulitzer Prize winning biography (1975) establishes Wharton as the consummate professional author, while Shari Benstock (1994) enshrines Wharton for her prominence as a female modernist. In 1977, Cynthia Griffin Wolff established Wharton as a self-fashioned (“anti-Romantic realist”) artist, and Amy Kaplan (1988) cemented the interest in Wharton’s “profession of authorship” by analyzing her major fictions as participating in the “construction of realism.” In 1980, Elizabeth Ammons published her landmark study of Wharton’s fiction. Other Wharton critics have followed through on the assumption that sexuality shapes the ground upon which the reader can find Edith Wharton’s “argument with America” (Ammons), her “brave new politics” (Bauer), her “ethnography of manners” (Bentley), her “sexual education” (Erlich), her “inner circle” of friends (Goodman), her preoccupation with “shame” (Raphael), her “anxious power” (Singley and Sweeney), her exploration of women’s social and sexual power (Tichi), and her mythic “underworld” (Waid).
