Literature, Medicine, and Memory: A Symposium in Memory of Dr. Carol Donley
In tribute to, and in continuation of, Carol Donley’s legacy of interdisciplinary collaboration and warm collegiality, we invite scholars and students of medical/health humanities and bioethics; health care practitioners; medical and health professions students; and artists and writers invested in issues of embodiment, health, illness, aging, and disability to join us for two days of rich conversation and conviviality on Hiram’s scenic rural campus. The program includes talks and workshops by field leaders, a performance, community meals, and a closing open mic session where all participants are invited to share their own creative or critical medical humanities work. Together, we will remember the origins—and imagine the futures—of the interdisciplinary study and creative practice of literature and medicine.
