In the Morte Darthur, Arthur’s accession is dominated by the actions of the commons:

And at the feste of Pentecost alle maner of men assayed to pulle at the swerde that wold assay, but none myghte prevaille but Arthur, and pulled it oute afore all the lordes and comyns that were there. Wherefore alle the comyns cryed at ones,

“We wille have Arthur unto our kyng! We wille put hym no more in delay, for we all see that it is Goddes wille that he shalle be oure kynge, and who that holdeth ageynst it, we wille slee hym.”...And so anon was coronacyon made. (Works, 16.7–21)

The “comyns” appear insistently in this passage: the word “comyns” is repeated three times here and once additionally in this context (Works, 13.15). It is otherwise used rarely in the Morte and only in this passage do the commons take political action. Despite Malory’s alteration of his source, his incorporation of the commons at this moment has been understood as a sign that Arthur is supported by all estates, and it has been argued that his accession would therefore have been viewed as typical by a fifteenth-century audience.

Malory’s changes to his sources here, however, particularly his inclusion of the “comyns,” are extremely significant for the nature of Arthur’s kingship in the Morte. In Malory’s source, the French Prose Lestoire de Merlin, the “communs pueples” weep for joy at the election of Arthur by the sword in the stone and ask if anyone will oppose it. Their intervention, however, is not decisive. It is the barons who, having tested Arthur extensively, ensure that he becomes king; the accession itself occurs without reference to the commons. In Merlin, the cry of the commons comes before the barons delay the coronation and test Arthur’s fitness to be king. In Malory’s version, the scene is com- pressed and the commons’ intervention occurs after the barons’ delay; it becomes a moment of outcry against the barons, the sign of a separate political force in the realm. The commons’ involvement in the political process dramatically alters Arthur’s accession.

Malory evidently made a deliberate decision to specify that the “comyns” were the channel through which Arthur becomes king. Why might he have done this and how does it square with the contemporary understanding of the “comyns” and their relationship to the king? What was their usual role in royal “election” and what might this suggest to a fifteenth-century readership about Arthur’s accession? The use of the “comyns” here recalls two related traditions prevalent in fifteenth-century thought both broadly based on the notion of vox populi vox dei: the official role of the people in acclaiming the king at his coronation and the responsibility of subjects to articulate their collective needs to the king that he might be guided in serving the community of the realm. Co-opting the commons for a moment of vox populi acclamation, however, harnessed a political element of uncertain definition and authority, casting doubt on the legitimacy of the monarch.

By comparing Arthur’s accession in Malory’s text to his sources, to the conventional form of the English coronation and to the “election” of two fifteenth-century kings, Edward IV and Richard III, I suggest that his installation on the throne by the commons marks a troubling type of kingship.

Making clay handles for a saw.

*I wanted to make ceramic handles for a saw that has been hanging on the wall at the back of my house for years now.

*I took the idea from Artist Richard Slee who did a full exhibition on Futile Utilities.

The tricky part of this is making the handles that can fit on over the saw and look like it's part of it.

I got a lot of help from Elaine, with ideas and teaching how to actually cut a straight edge in clay, how to hold a knife and score, score then cut.

I hope that with the shrinkage in the kiln, the handles will fit🤞

I also did some porcelain clay on my ready made mold.

It was a bit sticky taking it off so Elaine guided me, once again through the process, trying two different types of porcelain paper clay

Richard Slee at Hales Gallery

British ceramic artist Richard Slee’s ongoing installation of ceramic hammers and tools with wooden handles is a thought-provoking jumble of tongue-in-cheek contradictions, starting with the impossibility of using any of these tools for actual labor. Like Pete Seeger’s famous intention to ‘hammer out love,’ the concept is more convincing than the reality, as suggested by this abandoned pile. (On view at Hales Gallery in Chelsea through Feb 23rd).

Beide Künstler, Robert Dawson und Richard Slee betrachten die Gegenwart mit einem exzentrischen Blick. Auch wenn ihre keramischen Ausdrucksweisen sehr unterschiedlich sind, stellen die beiden Künstler unablässig Alltägliches infrage, zweifeln Offensichtliches an und stellen Konventionen auf den Kopf. Schon lange schöpfen sie ihre Inspiration aus der Geschichte der Keramik und der angewandten…

The Smiths - Strangeways, Here We Come currently obsessed with this album.

Strangeways, Here We Come is the fourth and final studio album by English rock band the Smiths. Released on 28 September 1987 (several months after their disbandment) by Rough Trade Records, it reached number two on the UK Albums Chart, staying in the chart for 17 weeks.[1] The album also became an international success, peaking at number 16 in the European Albums Chart; from sales covering the 18 major European countries,[2] staying in that chart for nine weeks.[3] The album was certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry on 1 October 1987 and also by the Recording Industry Association of America on 19 September 1990.

All of the songs were composed by Johnny Marr, with lyrics written and sung by Morrissey. Slant Magazine listed the album at No. 69 on its list of "Best Albums of the 1980s", writing that "Whether or not Strangeways, Here We Come ended the Smiths' brief career with their best album has been the subject of considerable debate for nearly a quarter century, but it definitively stands as the band's most lush, richest work."[4]

The sleeve for Strangeways, Here We Come, which was designed by Morrissey, features a murky shot of East of Eden co-star Richard Davalos.[9] Davalos is looking at James Dean, who is cropped from the image. Dean was a hero of Morrissey's, about whom the singer wrote a book called James Dean Is Not Dead.[9] Five years later, when designing the sleeve for WEA's Best compilations, Morrissey again chose Davalos as a cover star, and Davalos is looking at Dean, who is once again cropped.

As revealed in Jo Slee's collection of Smiths and Morrissey sleeve artwork, Peepholism, Davalos was not the original choice for cover star. Morrissey wanted to use a still of Harvey Keitel in Martin Scorsese's I Call First (also known as Who's That Knocking at My Door), but Keitel declined to allow him to use the image. In 1991 Keitel relented, and the image was used on T-shirts and stage backdrops for Morrissey's 1991 Kill Uncle Tour.

The album takes its title from Manchester's notorious Strangeways Prison (now HM Prison), whilst the line "Borstal, here we come" is taken from the novel Billy Liar. "Strangeways, of course, is that hideous Victorian monstrosity of a prison operating 88 to a cell," Morrissey has explained.[10]

On the title, Marr has said "I've learned to love the title ... it was a bit overstating things somewhat. A little bit obvious. But it's OK. I was always intrigued by the word Strangeways. I remember as a kid, when I first heard that the prison was really called that, I wondered had it not occurred to anybody to change the name? It's still befuddling, really." Morrissey has also stated, "Really it's me throwing both arms to the skies and yelling 'Whatever next?'"[10] from Wikipedia

Richard Slee (born 1946) ‘Sausage’ 2006 Strapped to a handyman’s folding workbench, Richard Slee’s ‘Sausage’ appears a comic and surreal object. Its shiny white surface and oversized form create a cartoonish fantasy. Slee’s work frequently plays with everyday items in ways that make them seem larger than life.

The would be trumpster-Dictator .. going at it .. even beyond Nixon:The trump has long demanded — quite publicly, often on Twitter — that his most senior cabinet members use the power of their office to pursue political enemies. 

But his appeals this week, as he trailed badly in the polls and was desperate to turn the national conversation away from the coronavirus, were so blatant that one had to look to Authoritarian nations to make comparisons. 

He took a step even Richard Nixon avoided in his most desperate days: 

openly Ordering direct immediate Government Action against specific opponents, timed to serve his Slee-Zee re-election campaign .. BAD !!
