#Philip Cummings

[jerfusipse]

17(?) de junio de 2024 The state of mind of the philosopher who has attained to knowledge of the good or of beauty is a desire to make goodness or beauty present wherever possible to a higher degree. It is not a desire just to "look at" goodness or beauty. It is rather a desire to make anything that is partially good or partially beautiful and to make it more beautiful or more good. Now a beautiful soul is by nature more beautiful than a beautiful body, and hence the result of making a beautiful soul more beautiful is going to be more beauty than the resulto f making a beautiful body more beautiful. And since rational thought is the most beautiful aspect of a beautiful soul and indeed the most beautiful thing that a human being can attain to, the philosopher will seek to possess goodness always in the most effective manner, that is by rational discussion with other beautiful souls.

Federico Garcia Lorca e Philip Cummings, 1929 em Vermont.

Um dos episódios mais importantes da vida de Cummings foram os dez dias que passou com seu amigo e amante, o poeta espanhol Federico García Lorca, em agosto de 1929.

Os dois se conheceram em Madrid em 1928 e passaram outro breve período juntos quando Lorca estava a caminho de Nova York em junho de 1929. Na conclusão da sessão de verão da Universidade de Columbia de 1929, Lorca foi de trem para Burlington, Vermont, e de lá para a casa de campo alugada de verão da família Cummings em Eden Mills, Vermont.

Durante essa visita, Cummings traduziu o livro Canciones (Songs) de Lorca para o inglês, com conselhos de Lorca sobre pontos-chave. Esta é a única tradução da obra de Lorca para qualquer idioma em que ele tenha participado.

Federico Garcia Lorca and Philip Cummings, 1929 in Vermont.

One of the most important episodes in Cummings’s life was the ten days he spent with his friend and lover, Spanish poet  Federico García Lorca, in August 1929. 

The two met in Madrid in 1928 and spent another brief time together when Lorca was en route to New York in June 1929. At the conclusion of the Columbia University summer session of 1929, Lorca went by train to Burlington, Vermont, and from there to the Cummings family’s summer rental cottage in Eden Mills, Vermont 

During that visit, Cummings translated Lorca’s book Canciones (Songs) into English, with Lorca’s advice on key points. This is the only translation of Lorca’s work into any language in which he is known to have participated.

"Lorca americano: la silloge poetica partorita da un mix di depressione e dolore". Saggio di Lorenzo Spurio

La giornalista Nuria Azancot ha dedicato un recente articolo uscito su «El Español» all’esperienza in terra americana di Federico García Lorca (1898-1936) dal titolo (traduco dallo spagnolo) “La redenzione americana di Lorca: così scrisse Poeta a Nueva York”[1], tra la depressione e il dolore[2]”. La Azancot con una prosa veloce ma non priva di elementi di pregio passa in rassegna la vicenda del…

So I'm new to tumblr and i don't expect many people to see this, but i've had so many thoughts about it that i want to try to write down.

I'm almost finished listening to the audiobook of A Darkling Plain, and i have to say that this series really surprised me. I tried reading Mortal Engines right after the movie came about but it didn't seem that interesting to me. But having listened to all of them (sans the last 3 chapters of DP) I think this might be one of my favorite book series.

Anyway something that really stuck out to me that I wanted to talk about is how similar in a lot of ways it is to one of my other favorite book series, the Leviathan Trilogy by Scott Westerfeld. In a good way. I've started listening to the audiobook for those ones again too and it's also really good. Both series are ya adventure books about a pair of orphans from opposite sides of a fantastical ideological war meeting and going on an adventure in a setting based on early 20th century europe but biopunk and steam/diesel punk.

Someone else who's read and liked them both has probably already pointed this out, but in case anyone who has read either sees this and is looking for something along the same lines, read them both they are amazing. The audiobooks are also amazing.

Boiling Point

Movies watched in 2024

Boiling Point (2021, UK)

Director: Philip Barantini

Writers: Philip Barantini & James Cummings

Mini-review:

This certainly lives up to its title: the tension slowly builds and builds until all hell breaks loose during the final act. I'm a huge fan of long/single takes, and this movie makes the most of that format. It's amazing how every single second matters in some way or another, regardless of how unimportant or casual it may seem. And of course, pulling off a 90-minute long take means both cast and crew are firing on all cylinders. I can't even begin to imagine how many hours of rehearsals and work went into making Boiling Point, but I hope they know it was absolutely worth it.

"Love is not contemplation of something loved, but a creative activity. (And hence, the life of the great lover, the philosopher, is a life of creativity)."

I’m writing songs for my next Bad Seeds record, so I tend to read more poetry and poetic prose to sort of get me in the swing of things. Lucille Clifton, Stevie Smith, Simone Weil, E. E. Cummings, Auden, Larkin, all sorts of stuff, a book of fairy tales I read as a child, and before I sleep, Roger Deakin’s beautiful book, Waterlog, a swimmer’s journey through Britain. It lulls me to sleep and gives me floaty dreams.
