Dr. Kurt Shaw
 Dr. Shaw recently presented a paper at the Southern Conference on Slavic Studies (SCSS) meeting in Charlottesville, Virginia. In his paper, which he has since submitted for publication, Dr. Shaw demonstrates how the Greek myth of Hero and Leander mirrors the relationship between two of the main characters in Konrád’s novel. Dr. Shaw is currently at work on another article dealing with themes from the same novel.
