NBC University Theatre
''The World's Great Novels'' was a radio series, directed by Homer Heck, which presented adaptations of classic novels. Broadcast on WMAQ, Chicago, and NBC from 1944 to 1948, it was initially heard Saturdays at 7pm during the first 1944-45 season and then moved to Fridays at 11:30pm. Music for the series was composed by Emil Soderstrom and conducted by Bernard Berquist.〔
The Chicago-based programs were a production of The NBC University of the Air. Through agreements with the University of Louisville, the University of Tulsa and Washington State College, listeners could receive college credit through accredited, radio-assisted literature correspondence courses. A study guide, ''The Handbook of the World's Great Novels'', was available for 25 cents.〔Dunning, John. ''On The Air: The Encyclopedia of Old-Time Radio''. Oxford University Press, 1998.

The series began October 28, 1944, with Henry Fielding's ''Tom Jones'', followed by Voltaire's ''Candide'' and Jane Austen's ''Emma''. Over the next four years, it aired adaptations of such novels as ''Kidnapped'', ''The Last of the Mohicans'', Thomas Hardy's ''The Mayor of Casterbridge'', ''Moby-Dick'', ''A Tale of Two Cities'' and ''War and Peace''. Since this was a half-hour program, many of the novels were serialized in multi-part adaptations of two to six 30-minute episodes.
