Doran Larson, the Edward North Chair of Greek and Greek Literature and Professor of Literature and Creative Writing, presented a paper in Minneapolis at the 63rd Annual Convention of the Midwest Modern Language Association (MMLA).
Titled “Unsettling Law’s Aims: First-Person Witness to How Prisons Defeat Retribution,” the paper was part of a session on “Prison Witness.” It is drawn from a chapter in Larson’s latest book, expected to be published in 2023.
Larson is the founder of the American Prison Writing Archive, a Digital Hamilton project.
