Donald C. Baker, Emeritus Professor of English at Colorado University, taught at the Faculty of Arts, University of Kairouan, Tunisia from 1986 to 1988. Then upon the invitation of the Department of English, he returned to Kairouan in 1991 and 1993 to give a series of lectures in English and American literature. The six lectures included in this book are endorsed with the relevant sources and cross-references considered essential for the researcher. In his lecture on The Glass Menagerie, Don Baker says: "I have welcomed the opportunity for indulging in my own reverie, my own trip into the world of memory, as I recalled the forties as Williams of The Glass menagerie] recalled the thirties. I saw the play four or five times in the forties and early fifties, for it was a popular play to be presented in university towns and on university campuses. It never failed to be moving, and I must emphasize, Williams never intended for his plays to be read and studied in a university classroom."
