The Fall of 2008 marks the 100-year anniversary of Mark Twain's final
work on No. 44, The Mysterious Stranger, his last significant
full-length piece of fiction. To commemorate that event, The Center for
Mark Twain Studies at Quarry Farm and Elmira College, in collaboration
with Co-Chairs Joseph Csicsila, Eastern Michigan University, and Chad
Rohman, Dominican University, will host a weekend conference October
10-11, 2008, titled "A Centennial Symposium on Mark Twain's 'The
Mysterious Stranger.'" The weekend program for "A Centennial Symposium
on Mark Twain's 'The Mysterious Stranger'" will begin Friday, October
10, 2008, with an evening cocktail reception followed by a formal dinner
featuring a Keynote Address by Alan Gribben. All paper presentations
will take place on Saturday, October 11, 2008, in single sessions, two
in the morning and two in the afternoon. This international two-day
symposium will showcase papers by fourteen distinguished Twain scholars.

To access complete Symposium information, please go to elmira.edu and

Symposium is now available on the bottom left of each page of the Center
for Mark Twain Studies.
