Here in 60 Centre Library where my
father worked. Yesterday I was at the Jefferson Market library
seeing an Emily Bronte presentation; it began at 10PM. It ran
through three main rooms, the downstairs catacomb-like reading room
and the upstairs reading room and theater room. Wild patterns are on
the high hung stage curtains. They're a challenge to remember, like
a hotel carpet design of rich greens and gold, maybe some blue.
Thereafter I was reading about a light sensitive artist, Olufson?
Thanks to my NY review of books subscription. It presented a
horrifying streetlamp monotone to Tate Gallery plastered sun. The
sun at any time is anything but monotone.
Ah colors.
The young girl playing Catherine
Bradshaw began young and aged before our eyes. Her abilities and
willingness to display them were so wide-ranged.
She began silently offering words for
the audiience to read. When she began speaking she had a lot to ask
and say, very introverted in her outgoing engagement. Ultimately,
no, don't call her, she is Emily Bronte. However, she began as
Catherine, who loves her homeland, and can walk the moors at night.
The mysteries of English landscape come
to light, as mysteries despite my being there, in Dartmoor. I was
traveling with US students through William and Mary. We explored
the countryside. I must have photos of the odd shapes that have
grown from the barren landscape. I remember them being a porous
rock. I would connect it with the rock on a beach in Ischia. Do
they arise, well I'm going to research my own essay here.
So the woman playing Catherine had her
own piano accompaniment, which was surprisingly beautiful despite the
annoyance of the built in distortion. The material, perhaps
improvised, came out so well that she lives with its crispy recording
quality. She's using a Casio, she eventually comes to it as a piano
playing songwriter, she performs live her own settings of the secret
poetry of Emily Bronte. These were all quite beautiful and whatever
her character annoyances, is it the self-indulgence she or the
characters? She came off very well accompanying herself.
I'm actualy thinking, yes, I'd like to
follow this format. Pantomime, audience engagement, dance solo (hers
was to a modified Kate Bush recording), then a lot of chatting with
overlaps of other interview recordings to supplement the new ones
from the audience.
I was here because I resolved the
theater group's misfits trademark dispute. This group of Rafaeli
Fontini? Is called the Misfits Theatre, which is ok if the word
theater always follows. The misfits are also a 70''s horror rock
group... and the title of an arthur miller screenplay as welll as a
word in common usage encompassing the reasons for its use in of all
the above.
Ok, the Wuthering Heights story came to
me in hiighschool with great clarity. The opening visit to the
window is indelible and it acosts the lives of the milquetoast
descendents. I'm remembering the watered down blood of the boiling
passings of Heathcliffe and Catherine, that no children, nor visitors
to the home on the moors can match it,
So Othello has nothing to do with this?
There is an overlap in the English usage of the word Moor?
We're in the south western region of
England, ending at Plymouth (Penzance) – Cornwall, moving East word
to Exeter (St. Peters Cathedral and University Location for the
William and Mary summer program) down to Exmoouth... Biloxi, Paynton,
Dartmoor, Salisbury and its Stnoehenge (Devon?), to London. And
where is redding in relation to London?
I guess if we went up North along this
line we'd come to Bristol and Bath.
The moors also contain the adventure in
The Hound of the Baskervilles.
So I'd do Thomas Hardy as Jude the
Obscure on the Egden Heath.
I'm going to the internet now. The
kingdom of Wessex encompasses Devon, ? Well, it ends at Exeter...
wherein lies Dartmoor and the Hay Tor.

The term "Moors" refers
primarily to the Muslim inhabitants of the Maghreb, the Iberian
Peninsula, Sicily, and Malta during the Middle Ages. The Moors
initially were the indigenous Maghrebine Berbers.[1] The name was
later also applied to Arabs.[2][3]
The dartmoor granite rock is called Hay
Tor
The granite which forms the uplands
dates from the Carboniferous Period of geological history. The
landscape consists of moorland capped with many exposed granite
hilltops known as tors, providing habitats for Dartmoor wildlife. The
highest point is High Willhays, 621 m (2,037 ft) above sea level. The
entire area is rich in antiquities and archaeology.
Haytor, also known as Haytor Rocks,[1]
Hay Tor, or occasionally Hey Tor,[2] is a granite tor on the eastern
edge of Dartmoor in the English county of Devon. It is at grid
reference SX757770, near the village of Haytor Vale in the parish of
Ilsington. There is an electoral ward with the same name. The
population at the 2011 census is 2,862.[3]
Moorland or moor is a type of habitat
found in upland areas in temperate grasslands, savannas, and
shrublands and montane grasslands and shrublands biomes,
characterised by low-growing vegetation on acidic soils. Moorland
nowadays generally means uncultivated hill land (such as Dartmoor in
South West England), but includes low-lying wetlands (such as
Sedgemoor, also South West England). It is closely related to heath
although experts disagree on precisely what distinguishes the types
of vegetation. Generally, moor refers to highland, high rainfall
zones, whereas heath refers to lowland zones which are more likely to
be the result of human activity.[1]
