III. Donations to InternationalPsychoanalysis.net
Internationanalpsychoanalysis.net has flourished in a remarkable way since it was launched in January 2007. It has become both an archive and a news source.
One of the serendipitous outgrowths of its presence and has been that we have even more reasons to experience ourselves as a community with a history, elders, anniversaries, anecdotes, a paper trail, photos and relics of our founders *** and evidence of our on-going growth and adaptation to a very changed therapeutic world.
But the growth has outpaced the cottage and one computer.
Are you able to contribute to the cost of our widening scope?
We will use contributions to internationalpsychoanalysis.net to scan and transcribe papers, search archives, find photographs format documents and upload recordings and videos. It is labor intensive and for me a labor of love [but for the helpers, indeed, work]***..

Maxine Kumin
POETRY MONDAY: MAY 5, 2008
Long before there was a Poet Laureate of the United States, there was a Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress. Maxine Kumin, one of our most beloved American poets, had that honor. She has also been Poet Laureate of New Hampshire, a Chancellor of the Academy of American Poets, winner of a Pulitzer Prize as well as many other prestigious fellowships and awards. One or more of her many books (sixteen poetry collections, a stirring memoir, four novels, a short-story collection, four books of essays and more than twenty children***s books) surely must be on some of your shelves already.

A Note from the Poetry Editor:
It came to my attention recently that some of you may have missed the news that one of America***s most celebrated and beloved poets, Maxine Kumin, died in February of this year, at age 88, at her home in Warner, New Hampshire. An almost full-page obituary appeared in the New York Times on February 8.

XLIII. Sociology and Anthropology Monday: Vilfredo Pareto
Vilfredo Pareto (1848-1923) was a Franco-Italian civil engineer turned economist and sociologist. Prior to 1898 he was a traditional economic liberal and politically a man of the left. He failed at his bid for a career in politics and became disillusioned and somewhat embittered. He began to withdraw from society, and, after having inherited a small fortune he retired to a house in Celigny where he acquired an enormous wine cellar with his companion, Jane Regis, and a legion of Angora cats. In his later years he became increasingly ***.
