| | Heath Anthology |
 | | The writings of Joel Barlow were early anthologized among those of his Connecticut contemporaries of 1785-87, when Barlow and David Humphreys, John Trumbull, Timothy Dwight, and a few others engaged in collaborative writing projects and called themselves the Connecticut or Hartford wits. |
 | | In the first half of the twentieth century, scholars tended to follow the lead of nineteenth-century literary historians and continued to rank Barlow among his conservative contemporaries. |
 | | His interests and his readings continued, through his life, to be philosophical, republican, scientific, and propagandist. |
