Wilder to Present His Final Lecture Tonight

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Thornton Wilder, Charles Eliot Norton Professor of Poetry, will give the final lecture of the series included in his appointment, at 8 p.m. tonight in Sanders Theatre. The subject of the lecture will be "The American Characteristics of Classical American Literature: Melville and the Real and the Forged Ambiguities."

As a stipulation of the professorship--of one year's duration--Wilder will now prepare his lectures for publication by the Harvard University Press. Wilder said last night that he has no teaching plans for the immediate future.

After doing research work in Spain, the Pulitzer Prize winning playwright and author plans to spend next year reworking his latest play.
