Finally, no line of giggling undergrads at the Hodges Starbucks! It’s a white mocha, bacon/egg/Gouda, four books about Madame de Staël, and Hamilton playing on my darling pink speaker kinda day!

#historically the key to other countries culture was based in #Royalpaces but in London #newideas & #culture fanned out from the #mayfair #salons of #eccentric #lbgtq ⚜️#madamedestaël the toast of #Paris discovered the larks of #Mayfair #Salons after she failed to crack #londonsociety on her first visit. #lordbyron persuaded her to try again ensconcing her in Flemings famous #regency #boardinghouse on #bondstreet & introducing her to the women such as #ElizabethMontagu - who ran the leading Salons on #HillStreet & later #portmansquare after which her fame in London finally took off. #OscarWilde on other hand became the toast of London from his arrival thanks to an introduction to the #DuchessofWestminster sister of his Oxford-acquaintance, Ronald Gower. While walking through the lofty rooms of the Duke of Westminster's house - now the @grosvenorhouselondon #ParkLane he said to fellow writer, Le Gallienne, "Ah, Richard! This is how a gentleman should live." To be in society was, Wilde thought, a bore; but to be out of it was a tragedy! “To get into the best society now-a-days," he was heard to say, "one has either to feed people, amuse people, or shock people - that is all." As he could not afford to feed them, he amused & shocked them, quickly realising the importance of enchanting women like the #DuchessofWestminster & #styleleader & #actress #lillielangtry who ensured his star rose rapidly ⚜️ Wilde’s easy #charm jaunty dress-sense combined with his iconoclastic #Irishwit made him an instant hit in the #Salons of #London (at Home House) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3crNKPgiNB/?igshid=ygsop4dddwse

È strano....come una sorta di jet lag temporale, un senso bizzarro di anacronismo....a distanza di esattamente due anni mi ritrovo a scrivere lo stesso libro, rivivendo giorno dopo le stesse situazioni come allora....il mio Canto del Salice d'Argento sta tornando come Silver Willow Song: chi parla semplicemente di traduzioni dovrebbe ricordare la lezione di Madame De Stael e considerare piuttosto il termine "riscrittura " perché è di questo che si tratta. #jetlag #jetlagtemporale #anacronismo #ilcantodelsalicedargento #scrivere #tradurre #inglese #linguainglese #romanzostorico📚📖 #romanzostorico #romance #romancemm #romanzodamore #madamedestaël #madamedestael #riscrittura https://www.instagram.com/p/CRg-_M7njrj/?utm_medium=tumblr

Poetry Salon @homehouselondon The key to other countries social elite rested in #Royalpaces but in London social power continued to reside in the #mayfair #salons of #eccentric #mavins as #madamedestaël the toast of #Paris discovered on her first visit here when she failed to crack British society. #lordbyron persuaded her to try again ensconcing her in Flemings boardinghouse on #bondstreet where upon introducing her to the women running the leading Salons her fame in London finally took off. #OscarWilde on other hand took off in London from the start thanks to an introduction to the #Duchess of Westminster, sister of his Oxford-acquaintance, Ronald Gower.
