Join NAS tomorrow on Tuesday, February 8th, at 2 pm ET, as we discuss The Red Badge of Courage by Stephen Crane.

Despite his youth and lack of personal experience with warfare at the time of his writing, Crane wrote remarkably realistic depictions of battles. His writings throughout his short life would always be held up against his seminal work. How does Crane depict the themes of cowardice and heroism? What makes The Red Badge of Courage a great American novel?

This webinar will feature Patrick Dooley, Board of Trustees Distinguished Professor of Philosophy Emeritus at St. Bonaventure University; Lee Clark Mitchell, Holmes Professor of Belles-Lettres at Princeton University; and James Nagel, Edison Distinguished Professor Emeritus at the University of Georgia, Resident Scholar at Dartmouth College, and President of the International Society for the Study of the American Short Story.

Join NAS next Tuesday, February 15th, at 2 pm ET, as we discuss "1945: World at War - America in WWII."

In 1939, Hitler's Germany began its invasion of Poland, which set off a series of war declarations from other European powers. Within a short time the world was embroiled in what would prove to be the deadliest conflict in human history. Over seventy million people died in the conflict, including some six million Jews systematically murdered by the Nazi regime during the Holocaust.

What were some of the most important events of the war? How did WWII shape the history of the United States and its trajectory as an engaged world power?

This webinar will feature Gordon Martel, Professor Emeritus of History at the University of Northern British Columbia; Sean McMeekin, Francis Flournoy Professor of European History and Culture at Bard College; and Marc Wortman, author of 1941: Fighting the Shadow War: A Divided America in a World at War.
