New Podcast - Gail Smith on Harriet Beecher Stowe

The Library is happy to present the first podcasts of the 2009/10 year. Dr. Gail Smith presented " Faith in the Flesh: Harriet Beecher Stowe’s Illustrated Feminist Scripture" on September 17th. Stowe, the author of Uncle Tom's Cabin and Dred also wrote Women in Sacred History, in 1874. Dr. Smith discussed the contrast in the text of the book compared with the illustrations used in the work. It is an interesting and enjoyable presentation. The podcasts are available in both video and audio format on the library's Provost's Forum Podcasts page, at http://orgs.bsc.edu/podcasts/. We hope you enjoy them. Steve Laughlin
