Es ist besser in #Originalität zu #scheitern als eine erfolgreiche #Imitation zu sein.

Heute wieder Retro Cinema.
Und Flic von Melville 1972 mit Ällen Dellen. Alles in Grau-Braun gehalten mit Tupfern von Oliv. Ewiges Intro, kaum Dialoge, dafür viel Geräusch und ganze 4 Frauen. Eine tote Prostituierte, eine trans Prostituierte, eine besorgte Gattin, und Deneuve als Geliebte v Delon; wobei 1 und 3 für die Handlung unwesentlich sind. Und nicht eine Déesse 🚗Irgendwie fehlt mir heute dafür die Muße/Geduld 🎬📺😎🚬🔫💰

I'm counting the days when we can successfully communicate with sperm whales 🐳. We will finally be able to apologise for almost making them extinct because of our thirst for money and "progress".
And we could tell them one of the greatest books ever written by our civilization is about them! 😍
Melville would be proud. 🫶🏾

Of all the preposterous assumptions of humanity over humanity, nothing exceeds most of the criticisms made on the habits of the poor by the well-housed, well-warmed, and well-fed.

#3GoodThings (gratitude to students)
1. Their #Melville papers, most on #Moby-Dick, were so thoughtful, complex, & well-written. Would that I could have written like that in college.
2. The creative writers who showed, through humor, depth, & again, beautiful writing (not #AI; their own voices I heard), their understanding & appreciation for a magnificent novel.
3. How lucky to have the honor to teach Moby-Dick to my students. I hope I was a good guide. Like the guides I had.

Ich betrete die Intensivstation, sehe zwei Kollegen sich am #Pneumothorax abmühen. Sage "ah Thoraxdrainage nach Ahab und #Melville" und keiner lacht!
Verdammte #Analphabeten!

#3GoodThings (last week of classes)
1. Our class on "The Lottery" covered Jackson's critique of patriarchy & the story as an allegory of fascism (The New Yorker published it in 1948).
2. The students are getting such a kick out of #Melville's, Pierre. A very difficult book that he wrote right after Moby-Dick.
3. We talked about how Pierre is what would have happened to Ishmael if he had been stuck on land, unable to "squeeze the hands" of his mates and love Queequeg.

#JeanPierreMelville
Coup de cœur cinématographique : Le Cercle rouge de Jean-Pierre #Melville (film de 1970). Chez StudioCanal. Une belle découverte. Mon Melville préféré à ce jour, même si Le Samouraï est aussi très bien. J'aime aussi beaucoup L'Armée des ombres.

The University of Hyderabad sent me the video of my presentation, "They Talk of the Dignity of Work. Bosh!: Melville, Moby-Dick, and the Value of Writing." Some of you asked me to post the link when it became available. I hope you like the discussion of how #Melville and #MobyDick in particular, anticipated some of the ideals (and critiques) of SDG 8 (decent work).

#GoodThings (the Typee edition)
1. Reread Typee, Melville's first novel, for the umpteenth time and loved it (again).
2. Had a fabulous class discussion of Typee.
3. Got to use throuple in class, as in Typee may be the first US novel to feature throuples (as in this is their form of matrimony). The class cracked up!

📚🥱 "Ahab's Arithmetic" finally reveals the groundbreaking revelation that #whales and #math do mix, in a literary stew only appreciated by the most devoted #Melville fanatics. Spoiler alert: Apparently, Melville was not just a whaling enthusiast but also a secret mathlete. Who knew? 🤯

Tomorrow @ 8 am ET, I'll be speaking on Sustainability Development Goal 8, which focuses on "Decent Work," & antebellum critiques of #work, esp. #Melville's. #SDGs are the 17 global goals developed by the UN & they range from addressing climate change to world health. The talk is part of a series created by Dr. Pramod Nayar, the UNESCO Chair in Vulnerability Studies, Dept. of English @ the U. of Hyderabad.
The link is https://meet.google.com/ojm-twid-atg. It will also be recorded if you are interested.

All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event -- in the living act, the undoubted deed -- there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. -Herman Melville, novelist and poet (1 Aug 1819-1891)

"Upon waking next morning about daylight, I found Queequeg’s arm thrown over me [Ishmael] in the most loving and affectionate manner. You had almost thought I had been his wife." from the Counterpane, Chapter 4 of Moby-Dick. 🏳️🌈

Universities, law firms, and anyone else complying beforehand. Stop! And follow the lead of NY State's Education Department and refuse to comply.
If outright refusal is too hard, take a page from "Bartleby, the Scrivener," and say "I would prefer not to."
