International Steering Committee
This is the development space for the International Steering Committee of The Walker Percy Project. The initial goal of the committee is to develop a working international bibliography.
If you are non-American scholar interested in fostering or documenting international interest in the work of Walker Percy, please contact the Percy Project director. For more about The Walker Percy Educational Project, Inc., and our Master Plan, click here.
The initial goal of the International Steering Committee is to develop a checklist of international scholarship on Walker Percy to be published as a part of the project. This will include:
- a listing of Percy works translated into different languages
- a bibliography of international scholarly writings (by country)
- a bibliography of related international periodical literature (by country)
A secondary goal will be the translation of the introductory materials of The Walker Percy Project into languages other than English. Each language represented can also have information about why Percy is relevant to a given country, its own literary tradition, or its culture.

THE WALKER PERCY PROJECT aims to become the most readily accessible and comprehensive, up-to-date resource on the American writer it has as its subject, if not also, in the long run, to serve as a model for similar future humanities projects dedicated to literary figures and the scholarship about them. The project is 501(c)3 non-profit tax exempt.
