Ray Ryan, Senior Commissioning Editor for English and American Literature at Cambridge University Press, will present a lecture entitled “Publishing Research in the Humanities” on Monday, October 21, 2013 at 5:30 pm in the Department of English, 70 Brown Street, Room 315. This talk will address questions such as the “crisis” in academic publishing in the humanities and social sciences, the future of the scholarly monograph, and the kinds of research that are most valued in scholarly publishing.

"Tracy Breton worked her final day on the job at the Providence Journal last Friday after covering courts and trials for 40 years. Breton was part of the investigative team that won a 1994 Pulitzer Prize for the ProJo, and she covered the downfall of two Rhode Island Supreme Court chief justices, Joseph Bevilacqua and Thomas Fay. Breton sat down to talk about her four decades of covering the courts and her future plans."
