Dean’s work appears in three professional publications

Dr. Jeffrey Cass, dean of the University of Louisiana at Monroe College of Arts and Sciences, has three new publications.

First, his “Revising Romantic Orientalism in Hamilton’s Translations of the Letters of a Hindoo Rajah" appears in the book “On Theorizing Romanticism and Other Essays on the State of Scholarship Today,” edited by Larry H. Peer and published by Edwin Mellen Press, 2008.

“‘A Fine Beginning Of A Romance With A Shipwreck’: Allusiveness and Cosmopolitanism in Maria Edgeworth’s Patronage” appear in the book “Engaged Romanticism: Romanticism as Praxis,” edited by Mark Lussier and Bruce Matsunanga and published by Cambridge Scholars Press, 2008.

His “Mary St. John” publication is included in the online recovery project “Irish Women Poets of the Romantic Period,” published by Alexander Street Press, 2008 (www.alexanderstreet.com). Stephen Behrendt is the general editor of the series.

Cass will teach Hamilton’s Translations in English 405 (English Novel to 1800) during the spring 2009 semester. He previously instructed students about Maria Edgeworth's “Belinda” in English 475 (Romantic Movement) and English 406 (19th Century English Novel).

“It's nice when you bring your scholarship back to the students, so they comprehend that you’re always engaged in professional development,” he said.
