Liebe Mitleser, die Laistrygonen-Episode ist so ergiebig, dass ich noch 1-2 zusätzliche Abende brauche, um das ganze Material in ein Video (mit Überlänge) zu bringen. Danke für Eure Geduld.

I've met with James Joyce at Trieste, where he had written large parts of 'Ulysses'. He was a bit stiff and not very talkative. Perhaps it was because of his formal attire despite the 36°C heat. At Trieste, you can also visit some of the places where the Joyce lived, and there is a small Joyce museum (no fee), also with rooms dedicated to other writers who lived and worked at Trieste (Italo Svevo, Umberto Saba). Worth a visit!
I am a bit behind with the English and Italian version of Episode 3, due to my vacation, but I'll catch up soon!

While preparing the next Ulysses video, I received these nice pictures of Joyce's grave at Zurich.

The latest Joyce video will be posted a little later, probably on Tuesday. As a small consolation, here are a few impressions from a fantastic Tolkien exhibition I visited last week in Catania, Sicily. The photos show a desk from his study, a portrait (oil painting) of Tolkien, the sculpture of a cave troll and some costumes from the legendary film adaptation

Delay / Verspätung / ritardo:

The small print below the author's name is my current location. That's why the Joyce video will be a few days late.

Das Kleingedruckte unter dem Autorennamen verrät meinen aktuellen Standort, - daher kommt das Joyce-Video ein paar Tage verspätet.

Le note in piccolo sotto il nome dell'autore indicano la mia posizione attuale, quindi il prossimo video su Joyce uscirà con qualche giorno di ritardo.

Mitch vom Kanal @The Pringle 100 , mein Co-Pilot beim Ulysses-Projekt, hat nun ebenfalls die zweite Vorbereitungsstufe gezündet und sein Video zum Matthäus-Evangelium veröffentlicht. Eine deutlich persönlichere und wunderbar als Ergänzung geeignete Betrachtung. Und nicht so langatmig-schwatzhaft wie ich sondern knackig in 11 Minuten. Unbedingt 'reinschauen!
