In lieu of an abstract, here is a brief excerpt of the content:

159 in I98O, continues to remain independent and almost wholly selfsupporting . ANNOUNCEMENTS 1. The Centre Explosion in France! Victorian, Late Victorian, Edwardian, and Anglo-Irish Centers have sprung up in such profusion in France during recent years that one has a sense of a vigorous renaissance of English studies being in progress. To unravel the profusion of newly created centers and the various publications they sponsor, I have sought the advice of Professor Jean-Claude Amalric (CERVE, Université Paul Valéry, Montpellier). The following seem to be the essential factsi Centre d'Etudes Irlandaises (Lille). Publishes Etudes Irlandaises, an annual, edited by P. Rafroidi. Centre d'Etudes Victoriennes (Lille). Directed by Pierre Coustillas. Publishes monographs or separate books. Centre d'Etudes Anglo-Irlandaises (Haute-Bretagne). Publishes Cahiers du Centre d'Etudes Irlandaises, an annual , edited by Jean Noel. Centre d'Etudes Victoriennes (Lyon). Publishes Confluents, a review of the English Department, edited by P. Veyriras . Centre d'Etudes et de Recherches Victoriennes et Edouardiennes (CERVE, Université Paul Valéry, Montpellier). Publishes Cahiers Victoriens et Edouardiens, a twice-yearly journal, edited by J. C. Amalric. 2. Beckson Reprinted; Aesthetes and Decadents of the 1890s, the very useful anthology edited by Karl Beckson and out of print since 1973, will be reissued in late 1979 or early 198O by Academy Chicago Ltd., 36O N. Michigan Ave. , Chicago, 111. 606OI. 3. Erratum¡ We regret the typographical error on the table of contents page [ELT, 22il (1979)] in giving Hans-Peter Bueuer rather than Hans-Peter Breuer. Professor Breuer's name is printed correctly in the by-line on p. 17. 4. Delays, Strikes, Shortages! We regret that ELT, 221 1 and 2 was mailed almost two months late. The two issues were ready in February. The teamsters' strike held up delivery of paper, and, to compound difficulties, there has been a paper shortage. Like our British friends, we seem to be experiencing an age of muddling through. 5. The Thomas Hardy Society of America! The Society sponsored an inaugural symposium at New York University on Saturday, March 31, 1979. Papers were presented by Walter F. Wright, Bruce Johnson , Joseph Kestner, William E. Buckler, William W. Morgan, Frank R. Giordano, and Harold Orel. The Society is soliciting membership .
