The Papered Past
During our 27th annual Seminar this January, we'll consider the various ways in which historians like David Levering Lewis and novelists like William Kennedy reveal essential truths about our shared history. As we prepare for this unique opportunity, we are also uncovering our own history– as an organization, as an event, and as a group of individuals joined in lettered island life. We've advanced in this endeavor by expanding our Past Seminars page, which now lists the theme and scheduled panelists for each and every year of our history, with links to images of our promotional posters from the pre-website era. Click here to see a slideshow of these low-tech handsome posters.
The journal of the Key West Literary Seminar features recordings from our
audio archives, exclusive interviews, essays, news about the Seminar, and
dispatches from Key West's literary past and present. It is created by Arlo
Haskell. Send email to arlo [at] kwls [dot] org
Each January, we explore a different literary theme through lectures, panel presentations, readings, informal gatherings, and discussions. In January 2011, we explore food in literature with our 29th annual Seminar, THE HUNGRY MUSE.
