Larry Martin
 |
Larry Martin joined the English Department in Fall, 1988. Larry is a native of northern Wisconsin, and his Ph.D. is from UW-Madison, but he has been in exile teaching in Ohio for many years, and he is very glad to be back on the banks of the Chippewa. His specializations are in linguistics, American Indian languages and literatures, and folklore. He is particularly interested in what is sometimes called "oral literature" and the attempts to record it in writing-from Beowulf and medieval sermons to traditional American Indian tales.
