Fall Semester 2008 Begins

This fall semester finds me still teaching at CUNY, but it’s an easy teaching load. I’m awaiting a report from University of Rochester press about my book manuscript. I also await the page proofs of my article for Isis, which is supposed to appear in print in December.

I’m beginning work on a new article on the connection between education and antislavery in the political thought of the French philosophe, Condorcet.

I spent much of the summer in the U.K., attending academic conferences and generally goofing off. The grant I received to conduct research in France is, thus far, unused: I plan to fly to Paris in the spring for a few weeks, at most.

No conferences planned for this academic year at this point.
