Reading Group Resumes! Up Next: SWIFT!

Hello All:

The C18 Reading Group will reconvene for the summer. If you're around, you should probably come--'cause it will be awesome.

One of your hosts of the C18 Reading is being quite selfish in putting through her own request for the next series of readings, but hopefully you won't find it too outlandish when I tell you that next on our agenda will be JONATHAN SWIFT!

Click on the links below for access to the text of what we'll be reading:

Tale of a Tub (1704)

A Modest Proposal (1729)

Optional:

The Drapier Letters (1734) - Vol. VI in the Prose Work of Jonathan Swift

The Lady's Dressing Room (1732)


We hope you join us in two weeks for the reunion of the C18 Reading Group AND for Swift Day (it's gonna be pretty great).

This meeting will take place on Wednesday, May 15th from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. @ the Pour House on Kirkwood Ave.

We hope to see you there!
