17. Journal

Of course, Robin is investigating abandoned buildings on this island. As an archaeologist, it’s only natural to take notes in one of her many journals.

It seems she even found some mural that is connected to the void century? It depicts Sun God Nika with an olive branch, a rainbow and only ocean in the background. Could that be some kind of prophecy? Who knows?

“Published in the book Bedlamite Verses of the XVI and XVII Centuries for Tom O’Bedlam.⁣

⁣

“Tom o’ Bedlam” is the title of an anonymous poem in the “mad song” genre, written in the voice of a homeless “Bedlamite”. The poem was probably composed at the beginning of the 17th century. In How to Read and Why Harold Bloom called it “the greatest anonymous lyric in the [English] language.”⁣

The terms “Tom o’ Bedlam” and “Bedlam beggar” were used to describe beggars and vagrants who had or feigned mental illness (see also Abraham-men). Aubrey writes that such a beggar could be identified by “an armilla of tin printed, of about three inches breadth” attached to his left arm. They claimed, or were assumed, to be former inmates of the Bethlem Royal Hospital (Bedlam). It was commonly thought that inmates were released with authority to make their way by begging, though this is probably untrue. If it happened at all, the numbers were small, though there were probably large numbers of mentally ill travellers who turned to begging, but had never been near Bedlam. It was adopted as a technique of begging, or a character. For example, Edgar in King Lear disguises himself as mad “Tom o’ Bedlam”.”⁣

Maurice Prendergast (American, 1858 – 1924) Beach at St. Malo ca. 1907 Oil on canvas, 36.8 x 44.5 cm Carmen Thyssen Collection • #Repost @paintings_i_love № 3205 Prendergast, who enjoyed swimming, depicted the seashore in countless paintings from Revere Beach or Gloucester in Massachusetts to St. Malo in France. Prendergast loved the sea, and at times, as he was attempting a water cure to alleviate his deafness, his pleasure in bathing took on an almost hedonistic quality. "To take off one's clothes and lay full stretched on the sand exposed to the wind and the sun is the finest sensation I know on a spring day. Even in cold days in March one little realizes the penetrating force of the sun on the body." Although Prendergast had visited St. Malo during his 1891-1894 stay in Paris and also in 1914, it was his two-month summer visit in 1907 that inspired most of his canvases. St. Malo, situated on the Brittany Coast, had at the time a little more than ten thousand inhabitants. Prendergast was obviously attracted by the coastal town with "its high tides and ramparts, " where he painted such landmarks as the lighthouse and Chateaubriand's Tomb, but it was the fine sandy beach with its colourful bathing tents that attracted him the most. As with the artist's earlier paintings of Revere Beach, he has assumed an elevated viewpoint looking down to the bathers on the warm sands of the resort town… • • • • • • • • #Prendergast #AmericanArt #Seascape #impressionisme #impressionistpainting #artforeveryone #art #fineartpainting #paintingoftheday #peinture # #arthistorian #peintre #malerei #americanart #americanimpressionism #americanpainting #americanpainter #postimpressionism #postimpressionismo #postimpresionismo (à Sète, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp4qaDeIEpm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Servus! Ultra High Networth Individuum Die letzten Tage habe Ich bei mir in der Atelier Galerie auf der Couch viel gegammelt und gechillt. Klar viel über Politik, Kommunikation, Psychologie, auf Twitter gelernt. Texte zu meiner Kunst verfasst, und hier veröffentlicht. Allerdings nichts gemalt. Ich habe hier in den letzten Wochen alle meine Bilder ( Gemälde Leinenstoff/ Papierarbeiten) aufgehangen. Alle Wände vollgehangen. In der Kunstwelt heißt das ‘ Petersburger Hängung ‘. Für mich ein guter Test wie meine Kunstwerke wirken. Bald werde Ich die Werke wohl mal umdrehen, und Sie von der anderen Seite zeigen. Habe alle meine Gemälde beidseitig gemalt. Das auf der Couch rumliegen muss auch mal sein. Zur Ruhe kommen, Bewusstsein, und Präsenz praktizieren. Dann versteht man was Wie wirkt. Wie mein Name wirkt, und wo Ich wie Leute von mir bewusst, bzw Unbewusst beinflusst dieses oder jenes tun. #SEAK #ClausWinkler #SEAKClausWinkler#oilpaintingart #studiovibes#contemporaryarts #oiloncanvaspainting #newartworks #neuekunst #artfollowers #artworkinstudio #postmodernism #arthistorian #peinture #peintre #germanart #historiedelart #abstractobsession #artstyle #artifinstagram #oilpaint #mixedmedia #figurepainting #oilpaintingartists (hier: Ennetbürgen; Nidwalden; Schweiz) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqYi-2zIRt6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#Repost @native_americans1838 • • • • • • While the Navajo code talkers are a well known group of men who helped turn the tide of WW2, the Choctaw code talkers of WW1 rarely get the recognition they deserve. Here's an interesting article I've found on them written by the U.S. WW1 Centennial Commision. "The Choctaw are the best-documented group of World War I code talkers. During the Meuse-Argonne Offensive (September 26 - November 11, 1918), as the A.E.F. took St. Etienne and continued into the Vaux-Champagne area they discovered that many communication lines had been left intact by the Germans retreating across the Aisne River. Following two failed attempts by the French, the 36th was brought up to take the remaining German position at Forest Ferme in an elevated peninsula of the Aisne. To ensure success Colonel Alfred Bloor, Commander of the 142nd Infantry Regiment, used a number of Choctaw to move troops, coordinate the attack, and send messages in their language throughout October 26-28th. Using Choctaw, a walking artillery barrage and attack caught the Germans completely off-guard, and the position was quickly overran and seized. Following the relief of the 142nd from the front line late on October 28th and early on the 29th, the 36th were sent towards Paris. On November 3rd they arrived at Bar-le-Duc, about 120 miles east of Paris where they were attached to the American First Army and billeted near Louppy-le-Petit." 👇🏽CONTINUING IN THE COMMENTS!👇🏽 ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ ✊🏽Follow @native_americans1838 if you've learned anything new ❤️✊🏽Like, share and save the post to help us grow!🌱✊🏽 ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ 🏷️Tags: #navajo #nativeamericanindians #nezperce #nativeamericanpride #nativeamericans #nativeamericanquotes #nativeamericanspirit #nativeamerican #indigenousculture #indigenoushistory #indigenouspeople #indigenouswisdom #indigenousrights #activist #americanindians #arthistorian #apache #americanhistory #americanindian #ancienthistory #lakota #landback #ponca #pueblo #trueamerican #geronimo #historybooks #historylesson #historymuseum #history https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmrzrirynt7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
