tiBR M. - Andrew Nelson Lytle: Teacher, Friend, and Gentleman. DEDICATION Mr. Lytle has been here before: he graduated from SMA and has been in the College as instructor in history and editor of The Sewanee Review. Again he is on the Mountain — and we hope that it is for a long time. Mr. Lytle is once more editor of The Review, and teaches Contemporary Fiction and Imaginative Writing. He has been here for two years now. In that span his influence has been remarkable; this is because Andrew Nelson Lytle is in many ways a remarkable man. As teacher, he has produced in those of us who have attended his popular Con- temporary Fiction classes that rare glow of excitement which is the pure joy of learning, of the opening of vistas, of the revelation of things unseen now seen. A man whose students are fairly jumping in their desks with excitement, a man who finds himself still surrounded by half of his class twenty minutes after period has ended — that man is a teacher. As friend, he is equally amazing: the student who finds himself in conversation with Mr. Lytle over a morning cup of coffee in the Union, over desks in a classroom, or across the hearth at his Monteagle home goes away regarding the experience not only as pleasant but profitable. As gentleman, he is perhaps the perfect example of what Sewanee tries to teach its scholars to be. The term gentleman is one all too loosely applied in our age. The appropriate definition is found in Oxford ' s New English Dictionary: a man of chival- rous instincts and fine feeling. This is what Andrew Lytle is — in truth, a paragon of courtesy, chivalry, and all that is gentlemanly — and Sewanee men realize it and hope to emulate this man. Thus, the 1963 Cap and Gown is dedicated to Andrew Lytle, a man superlative, a man dear to us and esteemed by us — teacher, friend, and gentleman.
