<DIV>Devastating. Jane Marcus was a force to be reckoned with. And as
someone once said of Jane Ellen Harrison, another of our intellectual
"unmet" mentors and friends...she was a giant upon whose shoulders we all
stand. Jane Marcus asked the important questions. Go back. Re-read her. All
of it. There are gems to be mined there that will guide you, test you,
frustrate you, but demand that you rethink possible. Her work will remain
generative, bold, and meaningful to our own questions and research as we
stay up late reading and writing forgetful of the tea kettle on the stove
...but somehow certain that we're on to something, something that
matters. </DIV>

<BLOCKQUOTE>What very sad news. Jane's pioneering scholarship and devoted
teaching as well as her kindness and generosity have encouraged and
inspired countless scholars of Woolf, Elizabeth Robins, feminism,
modernism, and much more, and the enduring legacy of her own work will
keep her spirit alive. We will miss you, Jane. <BR><BR>Christine<BR><BR>n
