I fear so. Itโs from Nancy Cunardโs Authors Take Sides on the Spanish War. Machen was one of only 5 pro-Franco authors (others included Waugh and Blunden, the rotters). 16 neutrals (including Eliot, Wells, and surprisingly Pound). 127 pro-Republican, including, bizarrely, Aleister Crowley.

โMr Arthur Machen presents his compliments and begs to inform that he is, and always has been, entirely for General Franco.โ Boo!!

Same here! White Palace in Ponty. Last film I saw there was Flashdance. Also the Parc and Dare in Treorchy. Definitely saw Star Wars in the Odeon in Cardiff in 78.

Alas alas, M. R. James was not an admirer of Jane Harrison, the old rotter.

The ghost of Jane Harrison
The woman who haunts Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own
The ghost of the Cambridge classical scholar Jane Harrison haunts the pages of Virginia Woolfโs A Room of One's Own (1929). Here's my post on the layers of connections, for over 30 years, these two writers shared.
