The New Freewoman, August 15th 1913 (placeholder)

I hope to get back to this one someday--but I don't want to fall too far behind.  I read this issue a few weeks ago and it's faint in my memory now.  Notably: Rebecca West throws her support behind Imagism by reprinting Pound's Contemporania.  Remy de Gourmont beings a longer prose project, "The Horses of Diomedes."  Their feminism continues to be relevant: "Views and Comments" discusses the fundamental flaws in arguing that men are motivated by biological lust that they can't be held responsible for having. 

Sorry folks.  I'll write more about de Gourmont as it continues.
