Join NAS tomorrow, August 2, at 2 pm ET, for a discussion of Mark Twain's novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.

“Right is right, and wrong is wrong, and a body ain’t got no business doing wrong when he ain’t ignorant and knows better.”

What makes The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn a great American novel? When published, it was widely criticized for its "coarse language," a charge that continues to this day. Does the book's language undercut its attempts to challenge the entrenched attitudes of its day?

This webinar will feature Alan Gribben, Emeritus Professor of English at Auburn University; Caroline Breashears, Professor of English at St. Lawrence University; and Robert Lamb, Professor of English in the College of Liberal Arts at Purdue University.

The discussion will be moderated by David Randall, Director of Research at the National Association of Scholars.

Join NAS this Friday, August 5, at 2 pm ET, for a discussion of William Faulkner's novel As I Lay Dying.

"Memory believes before knowing remembers."

What makes As I Lay Dying a great American novel? How did the novel help solidify Faulkner's place as a pioneer of stream of consciousness writing? Who influenced Faulkner's writings, and who did his writings influence?

This webinar will feature John Wharton Lowe, Barbara Methvin Professor of English at the University of Georgia; Robert Hamblin, Professor Emeritus of English and Former Director of the Center for Faulkner Studies at Southeast Missouri State University; and Peter Lurie, Associate Professor of English at the University of Richmond.

The discussion will be moderated by David Randall, Director of Research at the National Association of Scholars.
