I can see why you did it - it seems an illogical thing to write.
But the writer did write it - either because of the effect it would produce or maybe because that was as far as she had written before it was published and she changed her mind and continued it in the next episode or maybe just because she forgot or wanted to confuse us, we will never know.
But I do think we should stick to her text.

I didn't change the text - I know the rules :D After saying 'end of Part 4', I said 'Agnes Worrall's story is continued in part 5 of this recording'. It seemed harmless enough, but it's not important, so I've deleted it.

Sections 4 and 5 are spot PL OK, and sections 6 and 7 are PL OK. Well done on offering this selection of Jewsbury's work to the listening public!

That's great! I guess we are ready to go to the catalogue :clap: :clap: :clap:

I guess I should thank the person who wrote the article about these essays, as I wouldn't have known they existed otherwise.

Hi Erin, Next up I have a couple of older recordings to edit.

The first issue of The Blue Review (there were only three, so I could probably carry on and read the other two)
https://modjourn.org/issue/bdr452099/

The first two issues of Art in Australia (there are lots of them, so two may be a good place to stop!)
https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-325167134

I am guessing that you'll be happy to PL the Blue Review, but how about Art in Australia?

It is surprisingly readable, because it is mainly made up of biographies of individual artists, some of whom are still exhibited in Australia. I also thought it was interesting that the editors thought that what Australia needed in 1916 was an art magazine!

Yes to the Blue Review, however many volumes you opt for, and yes to Art in Australia, also however many volumes you choose to do.

And yes, Australia absolutely needed an art magazine, in 1916 and now - we all need art in our lives!

Yes, on the page I linked to there are thumbnails of each issue cover. But if you open one of the issues, right click on the first page and choose 'save image as', then it will download the cover page as a full size jpg file. You can do the same with any of the illustrations. Is that what you meant?

Bravo!

On the Manchester theme, there is a free talk on 11 June about two radical poets - one was at Peterloo, the other was a Chartist. The timing's not ideal for you, but at least it's not the middle of the night! If you're interested:

Thanks! I've registered. I haven't heard of these two before, so it looks interesting. And it finishes before midnight :D
