Hello Ishmailites,

I'm away from home and books, and have very limited internet access.

I'm trying to recall the name of a Canadian academic who was an early Melville fan at a time when Melville had apparently been mostly forgotten in the u.s. Can anyone remind me of his name and the institution where he taught?

Thanks much for any info,

Phil

Walked across the Dalhousie campus this morning. Wish I would have asked my question sooner; I might have lingered awhile. Thanks for the reply--
