Lesser known tenifacts #8

Academic tenifacts! From St. Rudolph. Nfu.

Students in their 2nd and 3rd years choose 3 electives in addition to their main subjects.

The choices are: bible studies, christian religion, community service, korean language, german language, french language, spanish language, music, art, and calligraphy.

Students are discouraged from choosing more than one additional foreign language because of the immense study load.

Today's tenifacts were from page 370 of the fanbook.

Confession #16

"I know it's probably not canon, but I always liked the theory/headcanon that Jack Ransom from Lower Decks is related to Rudolph Ransom from Voyager."

It’s Fine Press Friday!

On this first #Fine Press Friday of 2023, we present a couple of items from one of the more obscure 20th-century American private presses, the Cygnet Press of Cambridge, Massachusetts. Cygnet Press was founded in 1928 and co-managed by two Harvard academics, George Parker Winship (1871-1952) and Philip Hofer (1898-1984). Winship was the long-time curator for both the John Carter Brown Collection at Brown University and the Harry Elkins Widener Collection at Harvard University. Hofer had been curator for the Spencer Collection of the New York Public Library and assistant director of the Morgan Library before founding the Department of Printing and Graphic Arts at Harvard’s Houghton Library. Both librarians maintained a strong interest in fine press printing and printing history.

The first book off the press was a 1934 facsimile edition of Vita de Sancto Hieronymo (the first eight images), an Italian translation of the letters of St. Jerome by Matteo da Ferrara, originally printed in Ferrara by Lorenzo di Rossi da Valenza in 1497. In a 1934 letter that accompanied a different copy of this book, Hofer wrote: “The little book which accompanies this note is one which George Parker Winship and I set by hand and printed a few years ago. It amused us, and, I hope, will amuse you. Of course we would do it differently now - that is always the way!"

The last two images are from a very slim booklet entitled Tanatlus, the fourth imprint from the press, printed for friends in 1937 in an edition of 200 copies. The publication focuses on the color wood engraving of the punishment of the Greek mythological figure Tantalus. The engraving, by the master Czech American wood engraver, illustrator, and type and book designer Rudolph Ruzicka (1883-1978), was designed after a watercolor by Hans Holbein the Younger, “which the best woodcutter of Holbein’s time could not have bettered.” 

The original watercolor, conjectured to have been intended as a jeweler’s design, had been acquired by someone in Winship’s and Hofer’s circle in 1936. Ruzicka made seven blocks printed in different colors and values “to make an almost perfect counterpart of the original . . . .” To explain the image, the Greek texts of Homer and Pindar and the Latin text of Horace, along with English translations, are printed as part of the booklet.

Our copies of these two publications are gifts from our friend Jerry Buff.

Lesser known tenifacts #7

Tenifacts are back! Everything you don't need to know about St. Rudolph's dormitory (the "lustrous garden" as featurend in tenifact #2) rules and regulations.

Curfew is 9pm! Students may not leave the dormitory unattended after this hour.

Students have to do their own laundry including sheets.

Students may carry their own cell phones, but there is a landline phone available for common use. It is said there are more calls coming in than going out.

That's it for today's tenifacts! Tomorrow's tenifatcs will also be about St. Rudolph. Tenifacts from page 373 of fanbook 40.5.

More PSII Text Adventures covers. This time, it's Shilka and Rudger (Shir and Rudo). I believe all I have left now is to complete Amia's and start Nei's.

By the way, if you want to play these, my best advice is to avoid playing Rudger's without a walkthrough. It literally makes no sense without one, I've considered doing a playthrough of it just so people can experience the story without all the confusion

Milestone Monday

July 1, 1881, marks the world’s first international telephone call made between St. Stephen, New Brunswick, Canada and Calais, Maine, United States. Residents on either end of the Ferry Point International Bridge were able to call each other thanks to recent Bell Telephone lines putting them on the crest of quickly growing telephone communications.  

In honor of the day, we’re sharing the children's book Telephone originally written by Kornei Chukovsky (1882-1969) in Russian, translated and adapted by Marguerita Rudolph, and illustrated by Susan Perl (d. 1983). Chukovsky is Russia’s most popular children’s poet, with his witty rhythms and rhymes he has often been compared to Dr. Seuss. This is apparent in Telephone as he tells the tale of mischievous animals incessantly calling the author on the phone begging for snacks, galoshes, medicine, and a helping hand. The story is buoyed by Perl’s pen and ink line drawings of moonfaced children and anthropomorphized animals.  

Special Collections holds the first American printing of Telephone published in 1971 by The Bobbs-Merrill Company of Indianapolis. The book features both Russian and English text on alternating pages. Telephone is another book from our extensive Historical Curriculum Collection that can be explored online here.

(Part 4) The next tenipuri team is St. Rudolph! Here's my first impression of the St. Rudolph team. Only few of them made an appearance in Gakupuri so I didn't know anything about the other remaining members (the guy with the red headband looks cool tho) That goes the same for the next several team, just a few focus characters and one background character.

Kinda sad knowing Yuta felt like he's living in his brother's shadow and was frustrated to the point he transferred school, even though his brother and his friends really cares for him. It's a good thing Gakupuri took place after he'd finally realized that there are people who sees him for who he is and he's not angry at his brother anymore.

Not surprised at the fact that Mizuki's the one who made their conflict worst and even trained Yuta to use dangerous tennis moves to win matches, but at least Fuji kicked Mizuki's ass and he became a better person. (After all of that, it's hilarious watching Mizuki trying to challenge Fuji into another match but Fuji straight up ignores him or just says "who are u?" LMAO) I didn't know ANY OF THAT when i first watched Mizuki's route in Gakupuri and was surprised by how much of a villain he was in the anime. Fuji and Mizuki didn't even show much hostility towards each other in that game. Other than that, he's a pretty hilarious character who appears elegant and is very cunning but really cares for his teammates (and he kinda reminds me of Azul from Twisted Wonderland, especially the way he speaks)

(Speaking of the way he speaks, you guys should hear him talk in yamagata dialect, it's pretty adorable >v<)
