Article repository password

The Bender article is in the article repository (backup site), which is where all the scanned-in articles will be.  You need to use the username and password that I sent you by email to gain access to those articles.

Only two articles this week

Since we have so many smaller readings this week, and since Erika can't be there on Tuesday, we only need to read two articles this week: the Pizer one that Dave has posted and the Bender one that's already in the wiki. 

Backup site

As you all must have noticed, the PBworks site was down all weekend, and you couldn't get to the readings. 

I've set up a backup site here: http://www.wsu.edu/~campbelld/engl573/science/index.html; the password and username have been emailed to you.

Thurschwell piece now available

The Thurschwell essay essay on "In the Cage" is now available in our course wiki.

Mesmerism

Another text that involves mesmerism (if you're interested) is Jack London's "Planchette."
