MaudCast S02E00 Season Two Teaser

MaudCast S02E00 Season Two Teaser

Transcript

Hello kindred spirits, and welcome to MaudCast, the official podcast of the L.M. Montgomery Institute, broadcasting from the beautiful campus of the University of Prince Edward Island.

In this age of dislocation and disarray, season one of the MaudCast was far richer than we could have expected. In a dozen episodes, our little podcast brought together Montgomery scholars from around the world, carrying on the work that the L.M. Montgomery Institute has done for more than a quarter of a century: promoting research in and celebration of the life, works, culture, and influence of our favourite Prince Edward Island-born, Canadian writer, Lucy Maud Montgomery. 

And we are pleased to announce that Season two is upon us! 

We are very much looking forward to welcoming to the microphone Montgomery readers from Prince Edward Island and across the world. Upcoming episodes include conversations about Montgomery’s poetry, new methods of reading her novels, writerly projects about Montgomery’s biography or questions about gender and culture, and considerations of the ways her work inspires in us an artistic voice or a sense of place. In season two, we will speak with scholars, poets, writers, artists, performers, and leaders in the Montgomery community
--all in a quest to discover cutting-edge scholarship about the life and works of Lucy Maud Montgomery and join imaginative readers throughout the world.

We hope you will join us in this new bend in the road for the MaudCast. I am your host, Dr. Brenton Dickieson. From Technical Director Kristy McKinney and all of us at the MaudCast, we’ll see you soon.
