The Mark Twain Circle is sponsoring a panel on Mark Twain and the
Marketplace for the 2003 M.L.A. conference. Panelists may reflect upon
any aspect of Twain's history with and responses to the marketplace: his
turbulent career as an investor, his critique of wealth and capitalism,
his own identity as commodity and capital, and the extent to which Mark
Twain's life and work continue to have literal and figurative currency.
Panelists may also wish to consider the extent to which economic agendas
or interests inform Twain's creative process and/or the content of his
work. Please submit a brief abstract with a paper title to Ann M. Ryan, Le
Moyne College at ryanam_at_lemoyne.edu by March 31, 2003.
