SUMMARY:Illumination Series ft. Lloyd Sy
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Wednesday\, July 10th from 6:00 – 8:00 pm for an evening with Lloyd Sy! \n\n\n\nThis lecture is the fourth installation of our seven-part 2024 Illumination Series: Out of SPACE – Out of TIME. \n\n\n\nEmbark on an Unparalleled Adventure… \n\n\n\nAmidst the endless inventiveness of Edgar Allan Poe’s oeuvre\, one of his most creative stories is The Unparalleled Adventure of One Hans Pfaall\, a story about a man who purports to fly to the moon in a hot-air-balloon of his own making. But Hans is not merely an eccentric inventor—he is also a meticulous scientist\, and Poe’s presentation of Hans’s deliberations shed light on how 19th-century Americans thought about science. Find out how the Americans of Poe’s time thought about atmosphere and climate\, topics as pertinent to society then as they are now. \n\n\n\nAbout July’s Speaker: \n\n\n\nLloyd Sy is Assistant Professor of English at Yale University\, where he researches and teaches 19th-century US literature. He received his PhD from the University of Virginia in 2023. His work is forthcoming in several scholarly journals\, including Poe Studies. He has been a devoted reader of Edgar Allan Poe since reading “The Black Cat” in 6th grade. \n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nExhibits remain open. Wine available for purchase. \n\n\n\nLimited parking available in the Poe Museum parking lot.  \n\n\n\nPlease email Nicole Coppino at nicole@poemuseum.org with any inquiries.
