Edinburgh Park, Poets busts.

Each bust along Lochside Avenue has a short biography of the poet, on one side and one of their poems on the other.

Norman MacCaig was born as Norman Alexander McCaig in Edinburgh on 14th November 1910. He was educated at the Royal High School, Edinburgh, and the University of Edinburgh (MA with Honours in Classics, 1932). In 1940 he married Isabel Munro and they had two children. He won the Cholmondeley Medal in 1975 and in 1985 he was awarded the Queen’s Gold Medal for Poetry.

He made his living as a primary-school teacher. He was a lifelong pacifist and during World War II served a term in prison for his beliefs. There is a suggestion that this became a shadow over his subsequent career and that advancement was blocked because of it, if so it is an indictment of the aptitudes held then which are alien to many of us nowadays. He was one of the post-war Milne’s Bar crowd along with Tom Scott, George Mackay Brown, Robert Garioch and others including Hugh MacDiarmid, who became a close friend and with whom he had many an enjoyable flyting. He eventually left teaching and was appointed Edinburgh University’s first Writer in Residence in 1967.

. In 1970 he joined the English Department of Stirling University, becoming Reader in Poetry. He retired in 1978 and enjoyed a long period as a freelance poet. He died on 23rd January 1996.

The poem on his plinth is Notations of ten summer minutes, but of the poems I know of his I like one called Assynt and Edinburgh best.

Notations of ten summer minutes Norman MacCaig, April 1976.

A boy skips flat stones out to sea – each does fine till a small wave meets it head on and swallows it. The boy will do the same.

The schoolmaster stands looking out of the window with one Latin eye and one Greek one. A boat rounds the point in Gaelic.

Out of the shop comes a stream of Omo, Weetabix, BiSoDol tablets and a man with a pocket shaped like a whisky bottle.

Lord V. walks by with the village in his pocket. Angus walks by spending the village into the air.

A melodeon is wheezing a clear-throated jig on the deck of the Arcadia. On the shore hills Pan cocks a hairy ear; and falls asleep again.

The ten minutes are up, except they aren’t. I leave the village, except I don’t. The jig fades to silence, except it doesn’t.

Everytime I have a soft dream about a man I end up yearning the whole day afterward

Romeo and Juliet is an example that Tom can sell tickets. He sold those tickets only with his name attached. He created a frenzy only seeing for concerts. For the 92 presentations people waited for him for a like 30 seconds wave.

Look at Rachael Romeo & Juliet, the play is not sold out, they included more showings but not exacly because there weren't tickets available for the initial showings, still are.

Othelo with Denzel and Jake Gyll. started selling tickets today, is not sold out, besides I thought It will, still a lot of tickets available.

Of course I'm not implying everything he is leading, is going to perform as well as R&J or Uncharted, but his track record is great right now.

Yea, exactly 💯

And no offense to Rachael, but she just doesn't have Tom's star level of fame (not yet at least).

So yea, I'm not expecting her to sell out venues on Broadway.

Also, keep in mind too that Tom got his start on the West End, so for a lot of Londoners, seeing Tom perform there again is sort of like a homecoming of sorts. 🥹

But anyway, I'm sure even if Tom's play had come to Broadway and not the West End, that it would have sold out REGARDLESS, because he's just so famous and popular lol 😁👏🏾

Detective David Loki fic recs

The lovely @sizzlingcloudmentality Asked me for fic recs for our beloved detective. After digging through the tumblr tags I found that the fandom is a lot bigger than I thought! So hi to all of you!! I believe I’ve got all the fic authors listed below who have David Loki fics, but if I haven’t included someone feel free to rb or comment! I will link this post on my masterlist for easy access.

I’ve found archive of our own doesn’t have many Loki fics, I’ve found rest results by searching detective loki (prisoners) x reader.

I’ve written a few things for David, going to add more soon! My masterlist is pinned on my blog and as of March 2023 my requests are open! I’m also on a03 as @ emma_frxst

Black Sails - Captain Flint’s reading list.

Books are a key point of the storytelling in the first two seasons of Black Sails.  They help to reveal various aspects of characters and their relationships.  Being the nerd that I am, I decided to create a reading list based on Captain James Flint’s key books.

Not only did I bother to compile this short list, but I’m actually reading the books in the list.

The list in sort of the order that they are introduced to the viewer.

De Jure Belli Ad Pace - tr. On the Law of War and Peace by Hugo Grotius.  Published in 1625.  This is the first book Silver sees in Flint’s cabin.  Grotius was a well rounded Dutch intellectual who contributed to many fields but this piece in particular laid down a clear framework for [western] international law.  It is pretty easy to find used copies of this but it is split it up into three books and annoyingly not all online booksellers label it well.

Leviathan by Thomas Hobbes.  Published in 1651.  One of the two books on Flint’s desk that are partially illuminated by the lantern.  Important modern philosopher, interesting spelling inconsistencies (dude, decide if you want to say ‘we’ or ‘wee’) and clearly doesn’t have a great opinion on humanity but has great random quotes.  Like ‘of accidents of bread in cheese’.  However, holy crap, if you think what James struggles with in regard to war/civilization/pardons/human nature.  Yeah - spot on for Flint’s excellent character.

Free as an ebook or easy to find used copies or new.

The Republic by Plato(n).  ~375 BC.  This is the book underneath Leviathan and took me way more time to figure out than I’d like to admit.  Mainly, I could only make out the letters of ‘ton - he - public’ for each line on the spine of the book with the crappy lighting and not enough time from the camera shot to get a better look.  I wondered if the public was part of something else but thrown off by the ton in the author name until I figured out that Plato went by Platon and then I knew it had to be a translation of The Republic.

Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. Published 167.  By one of the most famous Roman stoics and Emperors.  James’ most precious book due to who gave it to him and how it likely helped him try to take perspective in situations.

It is easy to find free ebooks, though I’m reading one of the older English language translations to be closer to 1715.  Overall, a very enjoyable read.  I may seek out one of the newer translations. La Galatea by Miguel de Cervantes. 1585 tr by Gordon Willoughby James Gyll in 1867.  This is the only English version I can find and describes it as a ‘pastoral romance’.  Miranda gave James the original version of Don Quixote to read and this book is his way to apologize to her when he left Nassau angry at her.  It takes some digging around to find the English version of this - Spanish copies are much more numerous and I couldn’t find an English ebook.

I’m not including Don Quixote b/c I just can’t seem to read that book.  All my previous attempts have failed so I’m not going to use it to understand Thomas Hamilton.  I also don’t know which Middleton play James gave to Miranda - he just said, “Middleton, I thought you’d like it.” and then smiled all proud of himself while bandaged drinking tea.

So there you have it.  Captain Flint’s season 1 and 2 reading list. 

[gyllenhaalstories]
