Weir Publishes New Death in Literature Anthology
OSU Professor Robert F. Weir edited a 451 page anthology Death in Literature published by Columbia University Press. The volume groups poems and prose by Shakespeare Poe Dickinson Solzhenitsyn and others across chapters on topics from Death Personified to Funeral Customs. Weir hopes the book aids humanities teaching and broadens readers sense of mortality across cultures. Arbor Day kits offered by Texas Forest Service provide pine seed packets and classroom aids for Jan 16 observance.
