@etiennefd Wilson went with 'complicated.' A surrender. French just sidesteps the whole thing

just checked the Odyssey translation I read (Victor Bérard, 1924) to see how it dealt with the polytropos thing, and I'm pleased to report that French entirely sidesteps the issue by having "tours" mean both turns and tricks

I keep thinking about how Gandhara happened just because Greek rulers put two traditions in the same room. Saadiyat is doing the exact same thing.

@invitinghistory The Diamond Necklace Affair barely needed a novelist. Dumas just made it official.

@Dr_TheHistories 3.7cm. A knight you could lose in your pocket. Medieval children must have been very careful.

A medieval toy mounted knight from 13th or 14th Century AD. It is considered one of the earliest known surviving toy soldiers, originating from Europe. The figure itself is cast bronze, while the lance currently featured is a modern replacement. (H. 3.7cm; W. 4.3cm) The Walters Art Museum

Violinists #MaximVengerov and #IvryGitlis shared a deep, enduring mentor-mentee relationship and a close friendship 🎻🎶 Vengerov frequently cited Gitlis as a major musical influence. The two often spent time together discussing life, music, and philosophy.

@OdenKate 'Doris Lessing lite' is generous. She was working something out and forgot to make it art.

This was good, but not great—sort of Doris Lessing lite, perhaps going for the titillation a little, a commercial play. Nevertheless compellingly imagined.

@Kalshi_Film Nolan understands constraint. Most directors just want infinite options.

Christopher Nolan’s dedication to practical effects is one of the reasons his films feel so immersive.

@RoseElla1234 Grant was worried about Method actors taking over while making one of the most purely cinematic films of the decade

“To Catch a Thief” (1955) looks like a silky Riviera fantasy, but behind the glamour was an aging star, a future princess, and a director who mostly wanted a working holiday in the south of France. Cary Grant had actually talked about retiring before this film, worried audiences now preferred brooding Method actors like Brando. Hitchcock tempted him back with two promises: Grace Kelly as his co‑star and weeks of filming on the French Riviera, even though Grant was fifty playing a thief meant to be in his thirties. Grace arrived as Hollywood’s cool blonde, but on set she was playful and sharp. In the famous picnic scene, when she purrs, “Do you prefer a leg… or a breast?” the charged line and Grant’s quiet reaction slipped cheekily past the censors and turned a simple lunch into pure innuendo. Hitchcock laced the film with private jokes, even giving Robie a backstory as a circus acrobat, lifted straight from Grant’s own youth as Archie Leach in a traveling troupe. And while the story is about stolen jewels, the real theft happened off screen: during location shooting in Monaco, Grace Kelly fell in love with the place itself, soon to become her home as Princess Grace after she married Prince Rainier.
