Emily Brontë in Crum, WV: Reading Emily\u27s Ghost as an Appalachian Novel
In keeping with the theme of the conference, both Lee Maynard\u27s Crum trilogy and Denise Giardina\u27s Storming Heaven and its sequel The Unquiet Earth can clearly be read as Appalachian protest novels. This paper argues for a reading of Giardina\u27s Emily\u27s Ghost as not only an Appalachian protest novel but also as the third novel in a trilogy including Storming Heaven and The Unquiet Earth. After reviewing the form and purpose of a trilogy, as represented traditionally in Maynard\u27s work, the paper considers a revision to the form and explains how Appalachian values operate in Emily\u27s Ghost and connect it to Giardina\u27s other works. Building on the work of Loyal Jones and other Appalachian scholars, as well as an analysis of the three Crum novels, to establish a framework for a definition of Appalachian values, the paper concludes that Giardina has indeed written a contemporary trilogy

Faith, Desire, and Sexual Identity: Constance Maynard's Atonement for Passion
The article focuses on Constance Louisa Maynard, the first mistress of Westfield College in London, England. According to the author, Maynard has written various considerable books, both published and unpublished. She started her writings at the age of 16 in 1866 mainly to document her progress as a Christian. In 1871, her writing became her outlet for her passion about love, complex dealings with faith, desire, and sexual identity. It further notes that Maynard's frankness in disclosing her feelings through her writings adds distress and great historical value to her personal accounts
