My Antonia chatcast postponed--so top Cather specialist can participate

Tomorrow's chatcast on Willa Cather's My Antonia has been postponed so that Prof. Susan J. Rosowski from the Cather Project at the University of Nebraska can participate with a panel. Nebraska is prime Cather territory, the setting of Antonia, and we're terribly excited. Details, including the new date in September, will be on the way.

Sponsor is the Mid-Illinois Talking Book Center, and you can e-mail the MITBC's Lori Bell to learn the new date ASAP. While the seminar is for the blind and visually impaired, MITBC welcomes all to its "Meting of the Minds" net.audio seminars (yes, that's the right spelling--a play on "mete," as in "to distribute"). Tom Peters is moderator. See an earlier item.

Details: Prof. Rosowski tells me that, yes, as I suggested in the earlier item, F. Scott Fitzgerald paid much attention to Antonia while he was conceiving The Great Gatsby.
