A Celebration of The George Sand Association at 40 (founded at Hofstra University in 1976)
Friday, September 23, 2016 The George Sand Association (GSA), the North American home for studies on George Sand’s work that also established the Hofstra University Cultural Center, began at Hofstra University in 1976. During this time, 22 international conferences have been sponsored and/or co-organized by the society in the United States, Canada, France, Italy, Ireland, Hungary and Germany. On Friday, September 23, we mark the 40th anniversary of the group that launched and has sustained George Sand Studies in North America and abroad with a one-day symposium. Join us to celebrate the George Sand Association as well as Hofstra’s commitment to and support of a growing and internationally recognized literary society.
