HARDY FORUM ARCHIVE H01052 6/1/01 "JUNE 2001 ANNOUNCEMENTS" ============================================================= Date: Fri, 01 Jun 2001 14:31:31 -0500 From: Bill Morgan Subject: TTHA Poem of the Month for June Earlier today I posted Hardy's "A Sunday Morning Tragedy" as the TTHA Poem of the Month for May, 2001. This discussion will be the seventh in a series dedicated to Hardy poems with female narrators. I invite your contributions to a month-long, on-line conversation about this tragic Hardy ballad. 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), "The Night of the Dance" (November), and "The Dark-Eyed Gentleman" (December), "She At His Funeral" and "Her Confession" (January), "Tess's Lament" and "The Pine-Planters" (February), "The Pink Frock" and "The Beauty" (March), "I Rose and Went to Rou'tor Town" and "An Upbraiding" (April), and "The Chapel-Organist" (May) are still open, and your contributions are invited. Welcome to the June 2001 TTHA Poem of the Month Discussion. cheers, Bill Morgan ========== Date: Tue, 05 Jun 2001 08:34:39 -0400 From: Rosemarie Morgan Subject: Re:Temporary glitch Greetings all: Due to a temporary problem with internet browsers the TTHA online electronic forms for book applications and membership applications have been removed temporarily from TTHA Front page (www.yale.edu/hardysoc). The ordinary non-electronic membership forms and book order forms on TTHA Front Page are still functioning and can be downloaded as usual. Apologies for the inconvenience. With every good wish, Rosemarie Morgan PS. Robert Goddard's posting and gallery tip (British watercolours) provides viewers with a wonderfully refreshing respite from keyboard punching -- The Tyndale watercolour of "Mixen Lane" is delightful! ========== Date: Fri, 8 Jun 2001 09:42:26 -0700 From: Betty Cortus Subject: LIST-SERVE PROBLEMS Dear Members, Unfortunately we are undergoing a major problem at California State U San Marcos, our ever-helpful Internet Service Provider. Apparently none of its List-Serves, including HARDY-L, has been able to add or delete subscribers since about May 19. Rest assured that the staff at CSUSM is working diligently on this problem and we hope to have it resolved in the near future. This should not interfere with the receipt of Forum messages if you subscribed before this time.
