Hi Amy,
I would like to tackle section 8, "Black Venn", please. I think that's the only section left based on the above posts.

Hi,KTBMedia wrote: ↑December 26th, 2019, 1:45 pmI'd like to claim sections 9, 10, and 11. I have one question, however - in the first line of section 9, one of the sentences is broken up by a "[Greek: anankê]". How do I deal with this when recording the reading? I'm not entirely sure what it even means or how it connects to the rest of the line.
I look at the scan of the book. It is just supposed to say ananke, but it is in there in the Greek letters. A search yielded: "ANANKE was the primordial goddess (protogenos) of necessity, compulsion and inevitability."
Here is the scan:

So just read it as "...resignation to his personal Anankê which of all moods is to Fortune, the goddess of spontaneity, the most antipathetic."
I will update the MW for your claims.
Thanks!

I put you in for Jack and Jill now. I knew I was forgetting something. It happens so infrequently.drwebber wrote: ↑December 26th, 2019, 8:17 amYay! and you're welcome.
Question for you: I'd like to take on Jack and Jill, but I dunno what the convention is for reading left out words.
For example, in the opening: "My friend, Monsieur ——, absolutely declines to append his name to these pages."
Any suggestion on how to read the left out name that repeats through the text?

Thanks!
