Please, pass this along to all your friends, tell your dog about it, sing it from the mountain. We're looking for all types; English people, Comp.

Where do Film and Literature meet?
At Cafe Literati!

That's right, in addition to all the wonderful literature events floating around campus this week, more are on their way.

First, as you all know by now, is the first Medievalist Society meeting, featuring Dr. Edith Benkov's lecture on Christine de Pizan, Monday (10/2) afternoon at 4:30, Student Services room 2660.

Then, Dr. Larry McCaffery's eagerly anticipated discussion of the marginalization of SciFi as a literary genre, coming to you Wednesday (10/4) at 2:00, in the Aztlan room of the Aztec Center.

NEW--->Later that same day (two in a row, we're on a roll), Dr. McCaffery is screening the Avant Garde SciFi film by Craig Baldwin, "Tribulations 99: Alien Anomalies Under America (1990)." This event is going to be at 7 pm in AH 1120 (the screening room in the basement of Adams Humanities).

How could one top off a week of such fascinating literary explosion? Thursday night is the night, then. Dr. William Nericcio is offering a public lecture at the Museum of Photographic Arts in Balboa Park. The subject? The intriguing work of photographer and cinematographer Robert Frank. This event will be at 7 pm at the Jacobs Theater. Ticket prices are $8 for students and seniors, or $9 to the general public. For more information, check out:

Look forward to seeing you there,
