Announcements

iii Smith, and J. A. Symonds; we hope to publish accepted articles on Arnold Bennett by Evelyn A. Plory, John R. Reed's "Mixing Memory and Desire In Late Victorian Literature," and Welford D. Taylor's "A 'Soul· Remembers Oscar Wilde." Still more notes and articles on Hardy, Conrad, Pord and May Sinclair also await their turn. 5. Special Series: It has been a long time since we published an item In the Special Series which began with first editions of Wells' Hoopdrlver's Holiday and Gosse·s America. The first is out of print, the second very nearly so. We are, however, beginning to assemble the third number. In the past, these Special Series Items were mailed to then current subscribers as bonuses and sold at cost to others. Increased postal and printing costs make the continuation of this practice prohibitive. The third number in this Special Series, when It is ready, will be announced and offered for sale at the most reasonable price circumstances allow. We remind subscribers to ELT that the Special Series is not included In the subscription to the Journal, nor should it be bound or catalogued with the journal. It is a distinctly different and separate publication. 6. Dunning: It Is that time of year again. We urge all individual subscribers to renew subscriptions for Volume 14 (1971) as soon as possible. They can help us keep our modest subscription rate at Its present level, despite rising costs of paper, printing, and postage, by remitting before we take to the formal dunning process. For 1971 we continue to hold the anti-inflation line: $2.50 per year (volume) for domestic subscribers; $3.00 per year (volume) for Canadian and overseas subscribers. Perhaps this Is also the appropriate place and time to remind our readers that ELT is still an independent, self-supporting Journal, as It has been since Its founding in 1957. All printing costs, paper, mailing envelopes, business stationery, and postage are paid for with Income from subscriptions. ANNOUNCEMENTS 1. More ELT Courses: Professor Elsie Adams (Wisconsin State University - Whitewater) has written that she and William Lafferty have been teaching an undergraduate course in Late Victorian and Edwardian Literature since 1968. She reports that student interest has on occasion resulted in their wearing Beardsley buttons and an occasional green carnation. The three Pegasus anthologies and several supplementary paperbacks are used as course texts. ...
