Forthcoming Evening Lecture Series: Literary Friendships January - March 2012

Although writing is typically cast as a solitary endeavour, writers themselves are rarely solitary and their personal interactions with other writers can leave a material trace upon their works. This lecture series will examine the role and character of friendship across various writers throughout the ages.
