Thanks for the notice and information. Donoghue was pleasure at Duquesne, and he also gave a very good talk at the Seton Hall conference on Burke (with Bloom, et al.). He made many contributions to Burke studies, and he will be missed.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Dear Friends and Colleagues:
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm sorry to report that KB's long-time friend and collaborator, Denis Donoghue, passed away a couple of weeks ago at the age of 93. His obituary appears in today's
<i>New York Times</i>: </div>

<div>I had the honor of introducing Donoghue at the KBS Triennial at Duquesne in 1996 (thanks Richard Thames!). Donoghue introduces KB's collected fiction,
<i>Here and Elsewhere</i> (<a href="https://parlorpress.com/products/here-and-elsewhere-the-collected-fiction-of-kenneth-burke">https://parlorpress.com/products/here-and-elsewhere-the-collected-fiction-of-kenneth-burke</a>). You can hear Donoghue lecturing
on the "Arts without Mystery" as part of a six-hour BBC production here: <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p00h2cxd">https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p00h2cxd</a>.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I've attached a review by KB of Donoghue's <i>The Sovereign Ghost </i>from <i>
Equipment for Living</i>.</div>

</div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
