James Hargrave

Helen Ross

A prodigious letter writer, Hargrave saved drafts of his business and personal correspondence in letterbooks. He wrote to family and friends settled in Beauharnois County on the south shore of the St Lawrence and in the Tweed valley in Scotland, as well as to his future wife, Letitia Mactavish, and members of her fur-trading family in Argyllshire on Scotland's west coast. His letters document the experiences of a "lowland" Scottish family in North America, as well as happenings at the administrative centre of the Hudson's Bay Company fur trade. He expresses his views on religion, history, politics, and literature, describes his romantic attachments, and makes clear his attitudes towards the company's Native partners in the fur trade.

First novel, rough draft. Do the math.Existing in a world somewhere between Dhalgren and The Great and Secret Show, Unnamed: The Rough Draft is the opposite of writer's block - dizzyingly simple characters written in a morbidly complicated style as quickly as the author's fingers can type. A porn star who worships sharks, a housewife impregnated by a television, a college kid and the love of his life, a dead man living in a house in space and some people who just have that expression on their faces - that expression that just begs to get punched. All are part of the Unnamed, a mess that is mesmerizing in its simple complexity and complex simplicity.

The proceedings of the Sixth International Congress on Black Sea Antiquities (Constanţa, 2017) is dedicated to the 90th birthday of Prof. Sir John Boardman, President of the Congress since its inception. The central theme returns to that considered 20 years earlier: the importance of the Pontic Region for the Graeco-Roman World.
