Dr. Peter Lurie, Associate Professor of English, participated in the new School of Arts and Sciences 2019-2020 Sabbatical Fellowship Program, a cohort of three faculty members who offer each other support and the opportunity for cross-disciplinary conversations. Upon the completion of their sabbatical year, the fellows are expected to present their work publicly. This podcast interview offers a venue for the fellows to share their sabbatical projects with the university community during the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Lurie discusses his current book project, “Black Evanescence.”
