So, here's another obscure challenge for one of you scholars out there: I'm trying to ID the name of the author of the article "A Chapter on Ashes,” which appears in the October 1854 issue of *Harper’s New Monthly Magazine* (pp. 646-48). As before, a *prize* for the correct answer!........

On April 26, 1872, Giorgio Sommer took this photograph of Mount Vesuvius during its largest eruption of the nineteenth century--the very first known photograph of a volcanic eruption. Look for it in my forthcoming book, ASHES: A HISTORY OF THOUGHT AND SUBSTANCE, due out next year from Punctum Books.

Friends: *Today* is the official release-date of my new book, PSYCHOANALYSIS AND THE UNIVERSITY, and I hope that some of you will want to take a look at it--maybe review it, perhaps ask your libraries to order it for their collections, etc. (There's even a 20%-off code in the banner below.)

Advice about international phonecalls? Anyone know about iPhones and e-sim services like Airalo? Looks like a good deal, but new to this and would be grateful for any tips!
