For the first Center for Writing Studies brown bag of the semester, Dr. Carol Tilley will be discussing her research on young people’s comics reading in the mid-20th century. Even though it is sometimes difficult to find young people’s voices in historical records, Tilley will discuss “some of the unexpected places where I have encountered children’s experiences, stories, and creations in more authentic or, at least, less-mediated forms”. You can attend in person or register link to the watch online and everyone is welcome.
