Pictures: Philippine Literature Critic Dr. Leonard Casper


These pictures of Dr. Leonard Casper are from the author Linda Ty-Casper


From Syracuse University Libraries where Leonard Casper's papers are stored, I quote:

Leonard R. Casper (dates unknown) is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin, Madison and emeritus professor of English from Boston College where he taught for 45 years. He is the author or editor of numerous books on Philippine literature, as well as several pieces of fiction and two volumes on the works of Robert Penn Warren. Casper taught in the Philippines on five separate occasions, twice as senior Fulbright lecturer, and was contributing editor to Solidarity (Manila) and Pilipinas (Kansas; Arizona State). His wife Linda Ty Casper is a noted Filpino novelist.

The Leonard Casper Papers consists of correspondence, notes, manuscripts, drafts, published books and printed material.






Both Leonard and Linda have contributed much to Philippine Literature, as the reader can see.
My blog has several entries about them:
Linda Ty-Casper's "A Small Party in a Garden" Available in Kindle and Nook
