The event is named for Bill Kemp, a Shakespearean who taught at UMW for over 30 years, and it showcases work done by students in English, Linguistics, and Speech courses.<\/p>\n<p>A few notes about the talk. I wanted to do something unusual. I wanted to honor Bill, a colleague with whom I&#8217;ve had many fruitful collaborations over the years. I wanted to thank my department for their support. I wanted to speak some word of hope to us all at the end of a difficult few weeks. And I wanted to do all of that by exploring the connections between lyric poetry and popular music.<\/p>\n<p>I structured the talk around six audio events, the last of which included video. Four of these are recordings under copyright, so for the podcast I&#8217;ve included only beginnings and endings, and hereby claim fair use. One of the recordings is my beloved English teacher Dr. Elizabeth Phillips reciting &#8220;What Are Years,&#8221; and I&#8217;ve included that in full. I hope that the snippets convey the flavor of the talk. I also hope they send you out to buy <em>Tommy<\/em> (The Who), <em>Rain Dogs<\/em> (Tom Waits), <em>Hejira<\/em> (Joni Mitchell), <em>Welcome Interstate Managers<\/em> (Fountains of Wayne), and <em>The Last Waltz<\/em> right away, if you don&#8217;t have these albums already.<\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_9884\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-505-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gardnercampbell.net\/podcast\/kemp_symposium_keynote2007.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gardnercampbell.net\/podcast\/kemp_symposium_keynote2007.mp3\">http:\/\/www.gardnercampbell.net\/podcast\/kemp_symposium_keynote2007.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gardnercampbell.net\/podcast\/kemp_symposium_keynote2007.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('https:\/\/www.gardnercampbell.net\/blog1\/?powerpress_pinw=505-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gardnercampbell.net\/podcast\/kemp_symposium_keynote2007.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"kemp_symposium_keynote2007.mp3\">Download<\/a> (18.9MB) <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monday I was honored to deliver the keynote address for the 2007 Kemp Symposium here at the University of Mary Washington.
