| Justin, Thank you for introducing yourself to the list and for sharing information about your interesting dissertation topic. Yours is a complex subject, for certain, and I wonder if Percy-1990 would not be inclined toward a “Lost in the [Internet] Cosmos” approach. As for a 2019 Percy, that is an intriguing idea to explore, especially when you consider how many ways language and its use have changed since the advent of the Internet. If it proves of assistance, on The Walker Percy Project you can find descriptions of and links to the various Percy collections, including Loyola-New Orleans and The University of Texas Harry Ransom Center, alongside UNC-CH. I believe the Loyola Collections are quite ripe for new and productive research, given that they contain a collection of materials donated to the library by the Percy family, as well as a collection provided from Patrick Samway, S.J., which includes his research related to his biography of Percy. Best of luck with your valuable line of inquiry. Sincerely, Henry Mills Director, The Walker Percy Project Percy-L Administrator
