Inventory Acc.12723 John Manson Acc.12723 March 2007 Inventory Acc.12723 John Manson National Library of Scotland Manuscripts Division George IV Bridge Edinburgh EH1 1EW Tel: 0131-466 2812 Fax: 0131-466 2811 E-mail: [email protected] © Trustees of the National Library of Scotland Letters, cards and related papers, 1956-2006 and undated, sent to John Manson, crofter and poet. John Manson was born into a Caithness crofting family in 1932 and moved to a croft in Sutherland in 1955 where he lived until his work as a primary teacher took him south to Fife, Edinburgh and Dumfries and Galloway, where he now lives. Teaching and crofting aside, the main work of his life has been in 20th century Scottish literature. A published poet, he has also been tireless in promoting the work of others, and from 1974-1992 edited and published the literary journal Weighbauk. Early retirement from teaching in 1990 allowed him to more fully pursue his research, particularly into the work of MacDiarmid, Grassic Gibbon and James Barke; much of his published criticism relates to these three. John Manson’s Scottish interests lie alongside his knowledge and understanding of contemporary European literature. He has translated the work of writers such as Paul Eluard, Louis Aragon, Victor Serge (prose) into English and the work of Eugenio Montale, César Vallejo and Manuel Bandiera (among others) into English and Scots. The arrangement of the collection follows the order in which it was received from John Manson.

Tom Hubbard "Tell it slant": Duncan Glen and Akros In the course of In Memoriam James Joyce (1955) Hugh MacDiannid evokes the "intricately-cut gem-stone of a myriad facets / That is yet, miraculously, a whole."J Fifty years on, we may contemplate the myriad­ faceted work of Duncan Glen as poet, critic, editor, cultural activist, graphic designer and publisher. On 1 October 2005, at a small-press event at the Scottish Poetry Library, Duncan Glen celebrated forty years of his Akros imprint. If we can talk of the career of someone who is suspicious of careerists, it can be broadly divided into three phases. Although it has important antecedents in the fifties and early sixties (as we shall see), the first period begins in August 1965 with the launch of Akros magazine, one of the very few outlets for Scottish poetry at the time.

Imagine a City: Glasgow in Fiction. Foreword by Douglas Gifford. Glendaruel, Argyll: Argyll Publishing. 1998. 351 pp. ISBN:l- 874640-78-5. This is an important book. Moira Burgess has made a study of the Glas­ gow novel her speciality for some time, her bibliography on the subject being already a standard source of reference. Now, she follows this up with a full­ length study, ranging form almost forgotten late eighteenth--century novels through Scott's Rob Roy to the present so-called Glasgow School of Gray, Kelman and Galloway. She effectively begins her survey in detail with Rob Roy; with its broad picture of commerce early in the nineteenth century, rather than with the more or less contemporary The Youth and Manhood of Cyril Thornton by Thomas Hamilton, which portrays an even more vivid picture of the commercial city a few years earlier, but which novel she merely mentions in a footnote. Inci­ dentally, her system of not numbering collected footnotes, but of identifying them by a repeated part-quote I found a little inconvenient.
