Hi everyone!
First, thanks to all who came last week for The Man of Feeling. Up next is Sarah Fielding's The Adventures of David Simple. We'll be meeting once again in the Parker library at 2:15 (Wed, Sep 30). The poll is complete, so we will look at the reading list for this semester as well. We look forward to seeing you!
To all the Neo-Scribblerians and Bluestockings, welcome! This is the blog site for Indiana University's graduate students interested in eighteenth-century literature, philosophy, and culture.

Greetings!
First, a reminder about our meeting this week, Wed Sep 9 at 2:15 to discuss Helen Thompson's article "'It was impossible to know these people': Secondary Qualities and the Form of Character in A Journal of the Plague Year." We will be in the Parker library once again. The week after this we'll be reading Henry Mackenzie's The Man of Feeling, so keep an eye out for that.
Also, here is our poll, as promised. There is no limit, but if you vote for all of them we can't tell which are the most popular. Please email katblake@indiana.edu or thutchgoetz@gmail.com if you have questions!
