Literary Studies Workshop
Dear English majors,
Just a quick reminder that our new workshop series in Literary Studies (ENGL 701-10) is scheduled for later this month and early March.
The first workshop, on Working with Archives and Electronic Resources, will meet on Wednesday February 27 between 7:00 and 8:30; it will feature Cathy Eisenhower from the Gelman Library, Sarah Werner from the Folger Shakespeare Libary, and Abby Yochelson from the Library of Congress.
The second workshop, on New Directions in Research, will meet on Wednesday March 5 between 7:00 and 8:30; it will feature Professor Jonathan Hsy (Medieval and Early Modern Studies), Professor Jennifer James (Nineteenth-Century Studies), and Professor Antonio Lopez (Twentieth and Twenty-First-Century Studies).
The final workshop, on Undergraduate Research projects, will meet on Wednesday March 12 between 7:00 and 8:30; it will feature this year’s English Honors Program students, including Taylor Kate Brown, Lisa Francavilla, Alex Frank, Cat MacCurdy, Roxie Maisel, Nada Shawish, Sarah Whittemore, and Lizzie Wozobski.
The workshop series is open to all students; but it is required of all applicants to next year’s Honors Program (applications are due March 26) except those who are studying abroad this semester. If you plan to take the workshop, you must register for the course (ENGL 701-10). Although the official deadline for registering online has passed, I can sign in anyone who wishes to take the course. Please let me know ASAP if you need me to sign you in.
