Skidmore College's Salmagundi Magazine Celebrates 50 Years
Weekend conference sessions included “The Meaning of ‘Belief’ & ‘Sincerity’ in Literature.”
Over the weekend, a powerhouse group of authors and academics gathered at Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the school’s literary quarterly Salmagundi. Among those attending the Sept. 25-27 event were NYU professor Anthony Appiah, The New Yorker staff writer James Wood and Honor Moore, director of the graduate non-fiction writing program at The New School.
The highly respected publication was launched in 1965 by Robert Boyers. Per a write-up on Grid Saratoga by Thomas Dimopoulos, the seed money for the publication was unusual, to say the least.
