The NT Literary Society
This group is dedicated to English Literature generally - including but not limited to prose (both fiction and non-fiction), poetry, theatre, grammar, authors, poets, playwrights and whatever else concerning English Literature.
What is expected are articles and comments about English Literature and all as included above.
This is a change from the original intent of this group because as originally posted as The New Jane Austen Society it became too insular and restrictive, so it required expansion to cover broader interests.
The Code of Conduct and Terms of Service must be complied with.
Any comment posted about politics or religion not relevant to the English Literature articles that are posted will be deleted.
The administrator reserves the right to delete any comment he considers to be offensive, off topic or of no value.
Videos or images or links to sources that the Administration cannot open must be described or explained when requested or they will be deleted.
