Many thanks for the information. I've always found the period fascinating, and I wish I had the time to read more about it. My father taught Russian literature for many years; his brother did the same, and is married to a Lithuanian professor of Slavic languages. They had numerous emigre friends; I remember the hours of conversation, only partly understood, but worth hearing for the stories. I've read a bit, but most of what I think of the period comes from dragged-up memories of those conversations, which I grant is hardly an academically respectable source. All very far away now, and I've little time to look into it. I can't even keep up with my Asian studies, and I've long since traded the European languages in for obscure ones that almost nobody has ever heard of. (SI being SI, I've already run into someone else who speaks Tagalog, which I suppose should console.) For status in polite circles I suppose I should have retained at least the French, though it's a sure ticket to abuse anywhere in the Pacific, and deservedly so. Steve
