Reflections West for September 20, 2011
8:30 PM - 8:35 PM
[Program Website]
Today's Highlight: Lois Welch, professor Emerita of the UM English Department, reflects on cultural differences in how we conceptualize distance. She pairs her reflection with examples from the novel Winter in the Blood, by her late husband, poet and novelist James Welch, who is a pivotal figure in the flowering of Native American literature
Reflections West is a weekly 5-minute program that presents the reflections of writers and scholars on the American West. These thinkers pair their own thoughts with a passage from literature and history.
Reflections West’s aim is simple: to circulate—as widely as possible—wonderful passages of literature and history of the West in a thoughtful and thought-provoking way.
The program is produced and hosted by University of Montana professors, Lisa Simon and David Moore.
