Critical scholarly/poetic mass in Denver

Critical scholarly mass huddles in Denver for the three-day, annual conference of the Boston-based Association of Literary Scholars and Critics at the Westin Tabor Center Hotel in downtown Denver.


Something like 100 of the nation's leading literary critics and scholars met in Denver over the weekend to talk about improper enjambment of lines when poems are published on the Internet; Euripides' nurse's soliloquies in Medea; and the de facto standards setting chore foisted upon Poetry magazine and the Poetry Foundation in the aftermath of Ruth Lilly's $200 million endowment of both institutions.
