"our mind is a virgin forest
"our mind is a virgin forest of killed friends..."
"our mind is a virgin forest of killed friends. And if I talk to you with fairy tales and parables it is because you listen to it more sweetly, and you can't talk of horror because it's alive because it doesn't speak and moves it drips the day, it drips on sleep like a pain reminding of evils. To speak of heroes to speak of heroes: Michalis who left with open wounds from hospital may have talked of heroes when, that night he was dragging his foot in the blacked-out city, was screaming feeling our pain 'in the dark we go, in the dark we move...' Heroes move in the dark." ~ G. Seferis, From "Teleftaios Stathmos" http://www.fhw.gr/chronos/14/en/1940...on/pigi03.html ~ * ~ Blog, I'll warrant ye, or dog? Who knows. Pass the grog! But if ye see me lost pup, please bring that scurvy dog home! I got Leon a brand-new bone, with a chest full a' booty. _________________ http://journals.aol.com/virginiaz/DreamingofLeonardo |

Strophe (Turning ~ Point)
"George Seferis was born in Smyrna in 1900 and died in Athens in 1971. In 1931 he published, at this own expense, a collection of poetry with the ambiguous title 'Strophe' (meaning both part of a poem and 'turning-point'). The collection contained thirteen short poems, most of them in traditional metre and rhythm, and a more extensive poem, the cryptic 'Erotikos Logos,' in 96 rhymed 15-syllable verses, which vividly brings to mind Erotokritos, the celebrated Cretan 17th century poem." http://greece.poetryinternational.org/cwolk/view/17984 * Strophe ~ The first of two movements Made by the chorus in a classical Greek drama, Or the part of an ode sung during, thusly. The first type of metrical form in a poem, alternating Two contrasting metrical forms. Antistrophe ~ The second of two movements Made by the chorus in a classical Greek drama, Or the section of an ode sung During this movement. The chorus moves back in the opposite direction After the first movement, The Strophe. The second type of metrical form in a poem That alternates two contrasting Metrical forms. |

Jean Rouch:
Cin=E9ma-v=E9rit=E9, Chronicle of a Summer and The Human Pyramid ~ Barbara Bruni "Not much has been written about ethnographic filmmaker Jean Rouch's documentary The Human Pyramid (1960) in comparison to the interest aroused by Chronique D'Un =C9t=E9 (Chronicle of a Summer, 1961), the product of his collaboration with sociologist Edgar Morin. While most of his earlier documentaries were filmed in Africa, Chronicle of a Summer is set in Paris in the aftermath of the Algerian war and just before the explosion of social riots that came to dominate that decade. Chronicle of a Summer does not follow an established structure but is driven in an unpredictable manner by its characters and their reactions to the camera. It is arguably Rouch's best-known work, and has been widely discussed in the context of documentary filmmaking for its innovative cinematic techniques, its choice of scenario (the rough, urban streets of Paris during a significant historical moment) and for being the first film to define itself using the term cin=E9ma-v=E9rit=E9." http://www.sensesofcinema.com/contents/01/19/rouch.html |

"THRUSH
Ephemeral issue of a vicious daemon and a harsh fate, why do you force me to speak of things that it would be better for you not to know. SILENUS TO MIDAS* I The house near the sea* The houses I had they took away from me. The times happened to be unpropitious: war, destruction, exile; sometimes the hunter hits the migratory birds, sometimes he doesn't hit them. Hunting was good in my time, many felt the pellet; the rest circle aimlessly or go mad in the shelters. Don't talk to me about the nightingale or the lark or the little wagtail inscribing figures with his tail in the light ... ~ George Seferis, From "Thrush" http://greece.poetryinternational.org/cwolk/view/17988 |
