On Monday, October 19 at 5:30 pm, the Laurel Public Library welcomes award-winning writer and editor, Margaret Opsata. During the 1800s, people who were comatose, catatonic, sedated, or just plain drunk were sometimes mistaken for dead. Factual and fictional accounts of unfortunate souls awakening in their coffin, combined with medical disagreements about how to test definitively for absence of life, created widespread panic and led to imaginative inventions for preventing premature burial. Learn about this historic phenomenon and how Americans tried to avoid being buried alive - including being "saved by the bell.”
Margaret Opsata has over 30 years of experience writing and editing articles for magazines in fields like personal finance, retail marketing, and historic preservation. She also has taught English at Wilmington University and the Terry Campus of Delaware Technical Community College. This event is sponsored by Delaware Humanities. Registration is requested. To register, please visit https://delawarelibraries.libcal.com/event/17620983 or call 302-875-3184. Walk-ins are welcome.
