'That Whitsun, I was late getting away ... ' (Larkin, 1971, p.21).

ON WHIT SATURDAY - A TRADITIONAL DAY FOR WEDDINGS DUE TO WHITSUNTIDE

AND WHIT SUNDAY - THE 7th SUNDAY AFTER EASTER

AND WHIT MONDAY - THE TRADITIONAL SPRING BANK HOLIDAY

HAPPY SPRING BANK HOLIDAY - AND HALF TERM - WHICH THIS YEAR COMBINES WITH WHITSUN

‘Whitsuntide, the week following Whitsunday, was one of three holiday weeks for the medieval villein… on most manors he was free from service on the lord's demesne this week, which marked a pause in the agricultural year.’ (‘Whitsun’, 2008).

IN 1967 LABOUR PRIME MINISTER HAROLD WILSON CHANGED THE MOVEABLE FEAST WHIT MONDAY BANK HOLIDAY TO THE LAST MONDAY IN MAY SPRING BANK HOLIDAY 

AFTER A TRIAL PERIOD CONSERVATIVE PRIME MINISTER EDWARD HEATH MADE THIS PERMANENT IN 1972

'Not till about One-twenty on the sunlit Saturday Did my three-quarters-empty train pull out, All windows down, all cushions hot, all sense Of being in a hurry gone.' (Larkin,1971, p.21).

FOR THE RAIL WORKERS - 31st MAY AND 2nd & 3rd JUNE

(ON STRIKE AND AT WORK)

‘It has always been supposed the poem was based on an actual train journey Larkin made in 1955 on Whitsun Saturday, a day which was popular for weddings at that time … though since there was a rail strike on that weekend Larkin scholar John Osborne now thinks the journey an unlikely one to have taken place.’ (‘The Whitsun Weddings (poem)’, 2023).

Thanks to @lizziethereader for the tag! :)

After going through the BBCs list of the 100 books I thought it was only fair to look at the German version. The project “Das große Lesen” was led by the German public-service TV station ZDF in 2004. They preselected a list of books and then asked 250,000 German readers which books they would classify as bestsellers/important books one should have read.

100 books - German edition

@bibliophilecats brought this to my attention and I thought it looked like fun! I’m keeping her text and bold the ones I’ve read (and for the fun of it, the books that are on my shelf, but as of now unread, will be in italics!)

After going through the BBCs list of the 100 books I thought it was only fair to look at the German version. The project “Das große Lesen” was led by the German public-service TV station ZDF in 2004. They preselected a list of books and then asked 250,000 German readers which books they would classify as bestsellers/important books one should have read.

Here is the list. Bold the ones you’ve read or italic the ones on your reading list. (P.S. Feel free to add the English title if I didn’t find it and marked it as “not translated”)

Süskind - Das Parfum / The Perfume A. de Saint-Exupéry - Der kleine Prinz / The Little Prince T. Mann – Buddenbrooks / Buddenbrooks N. Gordon - Der Medicus / The Physician P.

100 books - German edition

The lovely @bibliophilecats​ tagged me in this German version of 100 books, thank you so much! I have a feeling this isn’t going to end as well for me as the other one, but it’s fun to see, so thank you for finding the list! :)

After going through the BBCs list of the 100 books I thought it was only fair to look at the German version. The project “Das große Lesen” was led by the German public-service TV station ZDF in 2004. They preselected a list of books and then asked 250,000 German readers which books they would classify as bestsellers/important books one should have read.

Here is the list. Bold the ones you’ve read or italic the ones on your reading list. (P.S. Feel free to add the English title if I didn’t find it and marked it as “not translated”)

Total: 15 well that’s half of the other one :D Also, of the books from this list I did read, only one is actually German in the original lol  I have some brushing up to do.... But I’m also missing some of the classics I did read. I mean, how is Frühlingserwachen not on there for example? Very interesting though! 

I tag @jennibeultimate, and @redbookpanda :)

which makes: 26 read, 15 to read (I think)

yeah I’m a little disappointed about no Dürrenmatt (and Schiller for that matter) and Thomas Mann being the only Mann. seriously Klaus and Heinrich are way more fun to read? (and Harry Potter 5??? seriously?? Eva have they asked you? :P)

I’m tagging @kaiserskleider, @waldwasser and if any of my german speaking followers are up to it you could tag me? ;)

100 Books

@bibliophilecats tagged me in this, thanks!  I had more than expected on the list as I don’t know German but we have a lot of books in common that we see as important or as best sellers. Although without Harry Potter it would be less. Also I read 1984 in the early 1970′s when we still could wonder if it could really happen. : )  I’ll post the BBC list in another post.

100 books - German edition

After going through the BBCs list of the 100 books I thought it was only fair to look at the German version. The project “Das große Lesen” was led by the German public-service TV station ZDF in 2004. They preselected a list of books and then asked 250,000 German readers which books they would classify as bestsellers/important books one should have read.

Here is the list. Bold the ones you’ve read or italic the ones on your reading list. (P.S. Feel free to add the English title if I didn’t find it and marked it as “not translated”)

Total: 17 and 5 books of them in school

But I am quite surprised about this list, some books make no sense to me why they are on the list. But ok lists are lists and do they really matter?

Because I am not a book blog, I won’t tag anyone specifically, but if you want to do it, than feel free to do it. You can say I tagged you.

Herzliche Glückwünsche zum 70. Geburtstag für Cordula Trantow

Am 29. Dezember 2012 wird Cordula Trantow 70 Jahre. Man kann es nicht glauben. Cordula Trantow, die immer blühend Junge, die voll ist von Ideen und Projekten. Die Liebe ihres Lebens, der Regisseur Rudolf Noelte, hat Cordula viel zu früh verlassen. Aber immer noch fragt sich Cordula, wie hätte das große Vorbild dieses Stück inszeniert?

Ich lernte Cordula Trantow durch Kurt Weinzierl und Veronika Faber kennen. Cordula wollte ihren Weilheimer Theatersommer verlegen – ein kulturelles Superereignis, das Besucher aus ganz Bayern anzog. Da witterte ich die Chance, Cordula Trantow in meinen Heimatort nach Bad Wörishofen zu holen. Schon bald feierte sie in Bad Wörishofen krönende Erfolge mit Stücken wie dem "Jedermann" und "Romeo und Julia" und mit Schauspielern wie Mathieu Carrière, Cosma Shiva Hagen und Marco Hofschneider.

Ich habe Cordula Trantow in den letzten 20 Jahren als konsequente Regisseurin kennengelernt. Sie war immer absolut von ihrem Handwerk überzeugt, Kompromiss- und gnadenlos. Die Kritik bei Zuschauern und Presse gab ihr meist Recht. Der Bad Wörishofer Theatersommer war jahrelang ein Highlight für die ganze Region. 

Liebe Cordula: alle Achtung für Dein Standvermögen, immer war Dein künstlerischer Aspekt Mittelpunkt Deiner Entscheidungen. Dafür gebührt Dir jeder Respekt und Anerkennung. Schenke uns noch viele Aufführungen mit Dir als Regisseurin oder Schauspielerin! Ad multos annos, liebe Cordula!

Dr. Horst Engler-Hamm und Dr. Danica Krunic
