Welcome to the podcast of the Hendrix-Murphy Foundation, located at Hendrix College in Conway, Arkansas. We take pride in our multitude of programs in literature and language offered to both students and the public.
At Re: Lit, literature and language are always topical. Our host explores many facets of literature and language by interviewing Hendrix scholars, writers, and makers, featuring recent projects, and highlighting what’s new in the word-related arts. If literature and language are first on your subject-of-interest line, then join the conversation at Re: Lit.
