Pioneers of Catholic Literature — Three Women Writers of the Twentieth Century
Today I invite you to discover, rediscover, or learn more about three women writers of the Twentieth Century — Muriel Spark, Sigrid Undset, and Willa Cather — courtesy of the de Nicola Center for Culture and Ethics at the University of Notre Dame.
I had the pleasure of attending the conference, Ever Ancient, Ever New: On Catholic Imagination, when this presentation — one of dozens — was filmed. Our three scholars-presenters here are Dorian Speed, Amy Fahey, and Amy Welborn.
You’ll enjoy a fascinating discussion on Spark’s work as transformative satire, Undset as a novelist of mercy, and the limits to Cather’s Catholic imagination.
Link below … you won’t be disappointed. Cheers!
