The concept of a literary career was the focus of a summer research institute titled The Artist in an Age of Imperial Culture, sponsored by the College of the Liberal Arts and the Institute for the Arts and Humanistic Studies. The institute gave participants an opportunity to study how writers and visual arts shaped their careers within the constraints of their cultures. In the photo, Judith H. Anderson, professor of English at Indiana University, is shown talking about Edmund Spensers poem The Faerie Queene, written during the 1590s, and the relationship of the writer to his text. Frederick A. De Armas, Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of Spanish and Comparative Literature and Fellow of the Institute for the Arts and Humanistic Studies, and Patrick Cheney, Professor of English and Comparative Literature, co-directed the institute.
