Please forgive this graceless appeal. The Israel resolution (Right to Enter) that I co-sponsored with Dick Ohmann is now being voted on. I think it’s a moderate and necessary gesture of support for our Palestinian and Arab colleagues who, though US citizens, have been denied entry to the West Bank to teach, do research, lecture, or attend…[Read more]

LLC Late-18th-Century English on MLA Commons 12 years, 1 month agoWe were so heartened by the outpouring of support on the MLA Commons and elsewhere for our attempts to resist the MLA’s proposal for a reorganization that would have seen the Divisions for Restoration and early 18th-century English literature and the Division for Later 18th Century English Literature collapsed into one very long Division indeed…[Read more]
