  3. Jackie Ford, Nancy Harding, Sarah Gilmore, "Re/searching leadership: A critique in two agonies and nine fits", 2022

    That paper about leadership also is an excellent contribution to the interpretation of Lewis Carroll and Henry Holiday's "The Hunting of the Snark". I added it to my Snark reading list (snrk.de/papers-and-books/#Lead).

  5. @claireridgway -- In his #illustration (snrk.de/snarkhunt/#561) to fit#8 of #LewisCarroll's #tragicomedy "#TheHuntingOfTheSnark" (1876), #HenryHoliday hid a pictorial reference to the print "Faiths Victorie in Romes Crueltie" (published by Thomas Jenner, c. 1630). The attached image shows
    (1) the print (containing a depiction of #ThomasCranmer's burning) with a comment from a curator of the #BritishMuseum and
    (2) my image comparison.

  20. There are letter-like patterns in #HenryHoliday's back cover illustration to #LewisCarroll's tragicomedy "#TheHuntingOfTheSnark" (snrk.de/snarkhunt/#BackCover). Is this #asemic art? Or are these just some lines used by Henry Holiday to draw the foam on the waves?

  27. @baragesi -- I became aware of the Dodgson debate when analyzing Henry Holiday's illustrations to what is (in my view) #LewisCarroll and #HenryHoliday's masterpiece: the tragicomedy "The Hunting of the Snark" (snrk.de/kwm). Serious contribution to the Dodgson debate are very rare. I recommend Katherine Wakely-Mulroney's "The Man Who Loved Children: Lewis Carroll Studies’ Evidence Problem" (Journal of the History of Sexuality, Univ. of Texas Press, Vol. 30, № 3., Sept. 2021).

    The first printing of my own comparison between an illustration by #HenryHoliday to #LewisCaroll's #TheHuntingOfTheSnark and the "Image Breakers" by #MarcusGheeraertsTheElder occurred in 2017.

    Below are images which #MarysaDemoor used in her book "A Cross-Cultural History of Britain and Belgium, 1815-1918: Mudscapes and Artistic Entanglements" (2022).

  32. Illustration by #HenryHoliday to #LewisCarroll's "#TheHuntingOfTheSnark" (1876).

    The "Baker" (hero in "The Hunting of the Snark") is visiting his uncle, who is sitting in his bed. The uncle (who has five fingers, but otherwise looks like Yoda and wears a nightgown which also looks like Yoda's long shirt) is describing the Snark to the baker: snrk.de/snarkhunt/#193

    Outside of the window: Some of the Baker's 42 boxes.

     Without the least vestige of land:
    And the crew were much pleased when they found it to be
     A map they could all understand.»

    #LewisCarroll’s #TheHuntingOfTheSnark (1876) has been published “with nine #illustrations by #HenryHoliday”. But there are ten illustrations. I suggest that the #OceanChart (aka #Bellman’s #map) is Carroll's design, who then commissioned a #typesetter with making the #PrintingPlate.
