Literary Studies

Recently, two faculty members in the department of German Studies and Slavic Languages demonstrated the strength of the department's literary studies. Michelle James and Michael Kelly were featured on Voices in the Human Conversation, a BYU Broadcasting production centered on ongoing research of BYU Humanities Faculty. Dr. James, Associate Professor of German, presented "The Fruits are Exquisite: G.E. Lessing, Zion and the Search for Truth," a discussion of her research into the works of German writer and philosopher G.E. Lessing." Dr. Kelly, Associate Professor of Russion, presented "Loving Kindness and Compassion in Dostoyevsky," an investigation into the writings of the eminent Russian author. Both of these presentations can be viewed at the College of Humanities media page or by subscribing to the Voices in the Human Conversation podcast.
