Bibliography: By the Aurelian Wall and Other Elegies by Carman, Bliss

In an 1898 Leader article, Cather enjoyed Carmen's By the Aurelian Wall and Other Elegies when she writes: "These songs are not so much of the great dead as the dear dead, and therein lies much of their spontaneity and charm."

In a 1902 Gazette article, Cather writes that she enjoyed Carman's By the Aurelian Wall and Other Elegies: "Of his several volumes the one entitled By the Aurelian Wall is the most uniformly excellent and is entirely free from the touch of bravado and willful frivolity which detracted from much of his earlier work."
