With Dr. Miriam Nichols, Professor Emerita at the University of Fraser Valley, in Abbotsford, British Colombia. Held in collaboration with the Gloucester Writers’ Center.

Miriam Nichols, Professor Emerita at the University of Fraser Valley, will give this year’s annual Charles Olson Lecture, presented at the Gloucester Stage Company in partnership with the Gloucester Writers Center. Nichols will discuss Charles Olson’s early poems written during World War II and the ways he re-imagined the possibility of agency in the public sphere under seemingly impossible conditions. For more insight, please view Nichols’ abstract on our website.
