Look. [Magazine of the] Art Gallery Society of New South Wales. July 2005. p.27. The answer I give to my stockbroker, who is a dear friend, when he teases me about my asking for more profit, is “the more money you make for us the more we can afford to give to the arts”. He really should stop teasing me, as he is a giver himself and knows the importance of benefaction and the pleasure it brings. Australians are amongst the most generous ...

Article by Zoe Artemis http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/incwriters/issue2vol2.rtf The last thing I did before I left for JFK airport was to pin my 'don't blame me I voted for Gore' button onto my lapel. That was last summer. As I walked through the metal detectors at the airport the alarm went off, and the security guard said to me,' it's probably that button you're wearing, please take it off.' Oh great I thought, please arrest me, this would be great ...

The sea gently laps on the pebbled beach. The Straits of Kythera smooth into the Sea Crete. A woman scarfed and clothed in black sits on a bench and watches, hopefully - a ship! Perhaps a letter, a husband away so long, a son so far away as Australia. Perhaps tomorrow. This ...

The Kythera in which my parents and grandparents grew up was a Gemeinschaft community, as defined by Tonnies. The traditions, rituals, beliefs - the general ethos of Kythera - confirm this fact. Many of the adjustments that Kytherian's made in Australia involved adapting mentally to the increasingly more sophisticated Gesellschaft society that Australia became in the 20th century. Adjusting to the shift was much greater for Kytherians than it was for mainstream ...

Rural Greek societies - hence societies such as Kythera - are characterized in Bouras's work as 0ral - rather than literate lived - rather than theorised about, and pragmattic - rather than theoretical.

In the process she uncovers some of the socio-psychology of numerous Kytherian women; with whom, we, of the second generation ...
