One of the remaining Gutenburg Bibles
Finally made it to the Ransom Centerto see bits of their extensive archives.
The current exhibit is focused on WWI~SO many poets whom I've read/taught over the years. Everyone from Owens to Sassoon to Apollinaire to ee cummings.
Mata Hari.
I hadn't know that Cummings was a prisoner of war.
The signature of WB Yeats & some rather impressive photography.
After all that heaviness of carnage and corpses, it was time to wander around the UT campus and soak in a bit of the warmth.
And then time to prepare homemade tortillas and accoutrements for movie night~I can now say that I have finally seen Up and it is as darling as everyone said. Six years ago? A bit behind on the movie viewing.
Wasn't ee cummings GORGEOUS? I mean, as good looking as Oscar Wilde. It's kind of ridiculous how hot some of the classics guys were. Also: Mata Hari. ☺
ReplyDeleteI love those little plates. Still haven't seen UP myself. Not sure I want to, since DEATH.
Yes! He was. Many of them were~was it the b/w photography?
DeleteBut it's Death With Balloons.
What's in the upper right bowl?
