In shelves of old books, in books that may not have been looked into for decades or perhaps centuries, I wonder what may have been left between the pages. I tend to use obsolete banknotes as page markers, or photographs or printed ephemera or news clippings relevant to the book's subject. And wouldn't it be nice to find a map?
LBF, I hope you haven't missed the hissy-fit directed at a few like-minded thinkers (such as Derbs at Takimag)in what they are calling the Dark Enlightenment. Derbs & N.J. Bell comment on it at Takimag
The images are taken by Allan Warren if Im not mistaken. He published a book about the Dukes of Britain a few years ago. The 12th Duke was a great man, but his son however is not so great...
"In every battle the eyes are the first to be conquered..."
- Tacitus, Germania
"One must work in solitude as a man who opens a clearing in virgin forest, sustained by the unique hope that somewhere in its depths, others are working to the same end."
- Ernst Jünger
"I find that I must go handsomely, whatever it costs me, and the charge will be made up in the fruit it brings."

Thanks in advance, Admiral.

DEK ~ Indeed. I sometimes find old newspaper clippings or notes in my old books.
GSL ~ I've been commenting at all those articles, and my other blogs. It's an interesting development, we'll see where it goes.
A lot of the DE strikes me as WN for pussies.
