          Archivist's note

          The poet refers to an article by Rica Singopoulo on Alexandrian authors and underlines the contribution of Stefanos Pargas to the dissemination of Modern Greek studies. He also wants to know more about the receipt of poems of his by Vaianos. While commenting on the social life in Alexandria, he informs her of an impending premiere of the play "I Autou Megaleiotis o Eros", by Nikos Grimaldis.
