For those who are interested, today I received a brochure from the MT
Memorial in Hartford about their Fall Twain Symposium.  It says, in part,
"This two-day symposium will bring together noted scholars from across
the nation to present new research centering on MT's experience in the
West and how it shaped his life and work.  Frontier humor and the tall
tale; America's "Imperialist Expansion"; depictions of the Native
American; and the influence of Twain's early years as a journalist will
be among the subjects discussed.  All of these aspects will be explored
through a variety of approaches within the disciplines of literary
criticism, biography, and cultural and political history."

Guests include Michael Kiskis, Kerry Driscoll, Louis J. Budd, James M.
Cox, William Howarth, John H. Davis, and Harold H. Kolb, Jr.

When: October 10-11, 1992
