not customarily issued from high places

"Judaism had always been for Delmore a significant emblem of his identity, and one he had made symbolic use of in his work, conjuring the artist and the Jew, both of whom occupied a unique, anomalous place in society. But by the 1950's the great excitement of the two previous decades, when the Jews of Delmore's generation had first acquired intellectual prominence, was fading before the complacencies of the Eisenhower era. The Trotskyites of the thirties were now professors, and 'notes from underground are not customarily issued from high places,' as one commentator on that period shrewdly put it."
