HARDY FORUM ARCHIVE H0099 12/1/00 "DECEMBER 2000 ANNOUNCEMENTS" ========================================================= Date: Fri, 01 Dec 2000 09:26:40 -0600 To: HARDY-L@csusm.edu From: Bill Morgan Subject: TTHA Poem of the Month for December Earlier this morning I posted Hardy's "The Dark-Eyed Gentleman" as the TTHA Poem of the Month for November, 2000. This discussion will be the first in a series dedicated to Hardy poems with female narrators. You can find the TTHA Poem of the Month Discussion by following the links from the main TTHA page at http://www.yale.edu/hardysoc/Welcome/welcomet.htm or by going directly to http://netforum.ilstu.edu/cgi-bin/netforum/ths/a/1/ Whichever route you take, when you arrive at the Poem of the Month site, you will encounter a program called NetForum which will give you the opportunity to read the poems as well as any comments they may have generated, compose a response, preview your response, edit it further if you like, and finally submit your contribution by clicking on the button labeled Post the Message. (*DON'T use the Reset Message button*; you will lose your work.) If you are composing an intricate or long response, you may want to prepare your message in a word processing program, then copy it to your clipboard before pasting it into the message area of NetForum. And if you prefer, feel free to send me your contribution as an e-mail, and I will post it for you: wwmorgan@ilstu.edu. While the discussions for February, 1998 through November 1999 have been "closed" and their contents edited and published in *The Hardy Review* [I:1 (July 1998) and 2:1 (Summer 1999)] and while the conversations from 1999 about the "Emma" poems as well as those concerning "Channel Firing" (January), "Satires of Circumstance in 15 Glimpses" (March), "After the Visit" and "To Meet, or Otherwise" (May), and "A Singer Asleep" (July), are currently being edited for publication, the discussions of "Nature's Questioning" (January), "The Mother Mourns" (February), "The Subalterns" (March), "The Lacking Sense" (April), "In a Wood" (May), and "To Outer Nature" and "June Leaves and Autumn" (June), "Wagtail and Baby" and "On a Midsummer Eve" (July), "Afterwards" (August), "Shut Out That Moon" (September), "The Last Chrysanthemum" and "The Year's Awakening" (October), and "The Night of the Dance" (November) are still open, and your contributions are invited. Welcome to the December 2000 TTHA Poem of the Month Discussion. cheers, Bill Morgan ========== Date: Tue, 05 Dec 2000 22:56:36 -0500 From: Rosemarie Morgan Subject: Re: Vis recent message from Dennis Taylor Greetings! Just to let you all know the good news. First, that Gerber-Davis' publishers will shortly be putting their T.H. bibliography on searchable CDs. Congratulations to Gene Davis--one of our TTHA Founder Members! Gene's most recent work-- presented at the Hardy Society International Conference Music Symposium (at Dorchester, July) -- is also shortly to be published in *The Hardy Review, Vol III, 2000*! Second, that as of today Dennis Taylor (TTHA Vice President) has started forwarding to me *The Complete Poems Online* (as yet not-fully-formatted-- er, anyone want a job?). Which means that The Hardy Association "Members Only" page will soon be able to sport not only Bob Schweik's momentous T.H 2000-2001 bibliography, when it comes out in January 2001, but also a searchable "Complete Poems" archive! Yea! Cheers, Rosemarie Morgan ==========
