It's a simple idea with a long history: Woman is told her husband has perished at sea, so she remarries, then the original husband turns up alive and hijinks ensue! An old-timey excuse to show a throuple and a natural premise for comedy, this concept stayed resonant for many years and was remade a number of times – including as a classic screwball 1940 film, that was later itself in 1947 adapted into a hilarious and chaotic radio production starring Lucille Ball as the wife with Bob Hope and Frank Sinatra as the husbands. This week, we hear that radio production in full, and go on a deep dive beginning with a simple title which does not officially have an exclamation mark in it but absolutely should – Too Many Husbands!

"I cannot rest from travel," says Odysseus in Alfred, Lord Tennyson's Ulysses. But wasn't resting from travel...kind of the whole point? Come to think of it, what does happen to an indelible character when his story comes to an end? Maybe the answer is, it doesn't. As a coda to our series on Homer, here's one last look at Odysseus through the years, as his story has inspired everyone from Dante to Spongebob.

It's another weekly gimmerick here on the Daily Poem. Edward Lear (12 May 1812 – 29 January 1888) was an English artist, illustrator, musician, author and poet, who is known mostly for his literary nonsense in poetry and prose and especially his limericks, a form he popularised.His principal areas of work as an artist were threefold: as a draughtsman employed to make illustrations of birds and animals, making coloured drawings during his journeys (which he reworked later, sometimes as plates for his travel books) and as a minor illustrator of Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poems.As an author, he is known principally for his popular nonsense collections of poems, songs, short stories, botanical drawings, recipes and alphabets. He also composed and published twelve musical settings of Tennyson's poetry.-bio via Wikipedia Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe

fWotD Episode 2645: Homeric Hymns Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Thursday, 1 August 2024 is Homeric Hymns.The Homeric Hymns (Ancient Greek: Ὁμηρικοὶ ὕμνοι, romanized: Homērikoì húmnoi) are a collection of thirty-three ancient Greek hymns and one epigram. The hymns praise deities of the Greek pantheon and retell mythological stories, often involving a deity's birth, their acceptance among the gods on Mount Olympus, or the establishment of their cult. In antiquity, the hymns were generally, though not universally, attributed to the poet Homer: modern scholarship has established that most date to the seventh and sixth centuries BCE, though some are more recent and the latest, the Hymn to Ares, may have been composed as late as the fifth century CE.The Homeric Hymns share compositional similarities with the Iliad and the Odyssey, also traditionally attributed to Homer. They share the same artificial literary dialect of Greek, are composed in dactylic hexameter, and make use of short, repeated phrases known as formulae. It is unclear how far writing, as opposed to oral composition, was involved in their creation. They may initially have served as preludes to the recitation of longer poems, and have been performed, at least originally, by singers accompanying themselves on a lyre or other stringed instrument. Performances of the hymns may have taken place at sympotic banquets, religious festivals and royal courts.There are references to the Homeric Hymns in Greek poetry from around 600 BCE; they appear to have been used as educational texts by the early fifth century BCE, and to have been collected into a single corpus after the third century CE. Their influence on Greek literature and art was relatively small until the third century BCE, when they were used extensively by Alexandrian poets including Callimachus, Theocritus and Apollonius of Rhodes. They were also an influence on Roman poets, such as Lucretius, Catullus, Virgil, Horace and Ovid. In late antiquity (c. 200 – c. 600 CE), they influenced both pagan and Christian literature, and their collection as a corpus probably dates to this period. They were comparatively neglected during the succeeding Byzantine period (that is, until 1453), but continued to be copied in manuscripts of Homeric poetry; all the surviving manuscripts of the hymns date to the fifteenth century. They were also read and emulated widely in fifteenth-century Italy, and indirectly influenced Sandro Botticelli's painting The Birth of Venus.The Homeric Hymns were first published in print by Demetrios Chalkokondyles in 1488–1489. George Chapman made the first English translation of them in 1624. Part of their text was incorporated, via a 1710 translation by William Congreve, into George Frideric Handel's 1744 musical drama Semele. The rediscovery of the Homeric Hymn to Demeter in 1777 led to a resurgence of European interest in the hymns. In the arts, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe used the Hymn to Demeter as an inspiration for his 1778 melodrama Proserpina. Their textual criticism progressed considerably over the nineteenth century, particularly in German scholarship, though the text continued to present substantial difficulties into the twentieth. The Homeric Hymns were also influential on the English Romantic poets of the early nineteenth century, particularly Leigh Hunt, Thomas Love Peacock and Percy Bysshe Shelley. Later poets to adapt the hymns included Alfred, Lord Tennyson, and Constantine P. Cavafy. Their influence has also been traced in the works of James Joyce, the films of Alfred Hitchcock, and the novel Coraline by Neil Gaiman.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:47 UTC on Thursday, 1 August 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Homeric Hymns on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Arthur.

In the premiere episode of Reckon True Stories, co-hosts and acclaimed authors Deesha Philyaw (The Secret Lives of Church Ladies) and Kiese Laymon (Heavy, How to Slowly Kill Yourself and Others in America, Long Division) come together to kick off a season where nonfiction takes the spotlight. They talk about their own journeys to writing nonfiction, the distinctions they make between their essay writing and fiction writing, as well as how they came to collaborate and work together in the publishing industry.  Deesha and Kiese discuss writing on their own terms, revising their own ideas of what an essay is “supposed” to do or look like, and putting themselves back into the writing, while also exploring what makes for a compelling essay — calling for the writer to not lose the storytelling aspect in their nonfiction work.

I realized that I keep looking for people who make me both think and laugh, meaning I need to seek them out to give them the opportunity to do so. Of course, sometimes your people don't actually need to be found, they need to be rediscovered; they're already there, waiting for you to reach out to them and say hello.  Today's guest is a law professor with articles published in the Columbia Law Review, Yale Law & Policy Review, the American Journal of Criminal Law, and many more.

Welcome to Campfire Classics, a Literary Comedy Podcast!! You know what, I'm not even going to complain about this episode. Your hosts do their job, the story is fun, so screw it. Just enjoy this one! Heather's got a story for Ken to read from a new author named Jean Ingelow called "The Prince's Dream." It's a charming little parable. Really.  As usual, side topics abound including how to fix time, the original source material for the Die Hard movies, and Alfred, Lord Tennyson is a prancing pop kid. "The Prince's Dream" was published in 1863. Email us at 5050artsproduction@gmail.com. Remember to tell five friends to check out Campfire Classics. Like, subscribe, leave a review. Now sit back, light a fire (or even a candle), grab a drink, and enjoy.

This episode and the second part deal with some very heavy themes, including child abuse (both physical and mental), child endangerment, bullying, homophobia, animal cruelty, and sexual themes, and that's before the mythos shows up. Listener Discretion is advised.It is 1961. In a time of great upheaval in the US and the world, a pair of teens in California are being forced to attend a summer school. This unique school has boys do college prep while they learn about boating, sailing a yacht from California to Baja California, then to Hawaii, then back. Our two protagonists are an obscenely wealthy JD and a quiet theater kid with something to hide. As they develop a tenuous friendship, they start to realize the two professors running this school have a cruel streak, and it's going to take their friendship and their skills to survive...If you want to read along when it pops up, luckily The Kraken by Alfred, Lord Tennyson is in the public domain and is freely available online.Ben - GMEthan - Emmett Urton, 17Greg - Gus Lockhart, 15

What do you get when you cross Journey's End with Brideshead Revisited? This month Angus, Chris and Jessica review Alice Winn's best-selling new novel, In Memoriam. The book follows  Henry Gaunt and Sidney Ellwood from public school and through the war. Half-German, Gaunt's mother asks him to enlist in the British army to protect the family from anti-German attacks. He signs up immediately, relieved to escape his overwhelming feelings. But Ellwood and their classmates soon follow him into the horrors of trenches. Though Ellwood and Gaunt find fleeting moments of solace in one another, their friends are dying in front of them, and at any moment they could be next. Along the way we discuss class, conscription and the difficulties of describing the boredom and violence of war in popular fiction. References1917 (2019) A.J.

Happy Thursday! This week Rachel, Jackie, and Bekah wrap up Pride Month with a bang. The gang keeps it lesbian and discuss the life and times (what little is known about them) of Sappho, the Ancient Greek "Poetess" whose works have survived for nearly 2500 years and are still being discovered and discussed. She was also probably at least somewhat if not very gay! Rachel hates Bekah's cats. Bekah could probably get away with drilling through most of a person before anyone notices.  Jackie gives a rodent CPR.Topics include: a totally real, heterosexual husband; the Alexandria Library of Fire; "This One's for the Girls" by Martina McBride, mole confusion, murder cats, spoiled rotten cats, Hot Garth Summer, the Lil' Wayne of Ancient Greece, r/SapphoAndHerFriend, dentistry secrets, Cracked.com, and a rap-reimagining of a popular children's song.Poems discussed:Ode to Aphrodite: https://lsa.umich.edu/content/dam/kelsey-assets/kelsey-documents/2021-Poetry-Blast.pdfFragment 31 - translations by Lord Byron, Lord Tennyson, Anne CarsonFragment 94 ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

The award-winning author of 11 books, Tom Sleigh is the latest author to be a guest on the Make Meaning Podcast. In this episode, Tom talks with host Lynne Golodner about how his love of language traces back to childhood, when his mother, an English teacher, first read Thoreau aloud.    That journey continued through decades when he was a war correspondent on the front lines in Lebanon and Syria to his archeologist days in southern Mexico and finally, to the resonance of the global COVID-19 pandemic, which turned us all into isolated individuals yearning for the connection that language brings.   In this episode, Lynne and Tom discuss:  The crossroads of journalism and poetry The importance of noticing details Feral cats on military tanks in southern Lebanon King James I's fascination with witches and also being a germophobe Writing articles about refugees How to make poetry accessible The profound sense of pleasure that comes with sitting with the words   Links and Resources:  THE KING'S TOUCH Walden by Henry David Thoreau Elizabeth Bishop French philosopher Pierre Teilhard de Chardin Swiss archeologist and photographer Gertrude Blom Na Bolom research center Alfred, Lord Tennyson's The Lady of Shalott Charles Bell   Find Tom Sleigh: Website  Facebook   If you enjoyed this episode, you'll like these other Make Meaning Podcast episodes:   Episode 133 – Sara Henning – Poetry about Loss & Redemption Episode 120 – Jacqueline Suskin – A Poem Every Day Episode 119 – Roots – Israeli-Palestinian – Toward True Peace in the Middle East Episode 68 – M.L.

Giorgio Bruins and Séverine Daniel have brought the Wim Hof method to Luxembourg. Dr. Mithu Storoni tells us how it works and why exercising our autonomous nervous system is good for us. How many of you extol the values of a cold shower, or even a swim in the sea / lake? Cold showering and swimming is all the rage these days and Wim Hof has something to do with it. Wim Hof, a.k.a. 'Iceman_Hof', had to deal with a sudden tragedy in his young adulthood when his wife committed suicide, leaving him with their four young children. Part of his recovery to cope was working with cold water. Now the story of Wim Hof has developed much further, and the science behind why his methods of breathing and cold water exposure have a positive effect on us is being properly explored by scientists and the medical profession. Giorgio Bruins and his wife Séverine Daniel went through their own dip in life, as we all do from time to time. Perhaps chronic stress, to which no medicine can truly cure it. After a birthday present 'Wim Hof' experience in Ireland, Giorgio felt something shift in his body and within weeks felt his energy return. Séverine also noticed a huge change in her heart rate, as her resting rate fell by 10 beats per minute. They went on to completely change their working lives and create B-You here in Luxembourg, giving a variety of sessions to help build mental resilience, physical resilience and increased immunity. I was given the opportunity to try out their course last weekend and since then I am doing my best to turn my showers to cold (with a deep exhale) at the end! *** IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT NO ONE SHOULD JUMP INTO A COLD LAKE OR SEA WITHOUT KNOWING HOW TO REGULATE YOUR BREATHING OR WITHOUT SUPERVISION UNTIL YOU UNDERSTAND YOUR OWN BODY *** Dr. Mithu Storoni is a Cambridge neuroscientist and eye surgeon who now spends her time researching huge amounts of scientific papers across a plethora of fields to build links between the research. It's so hard for even a physician to be across all medicine with the wealth of information out there that we need people like Mithu to help us navigate the mind in our information-laden, digital world. Her first book, Stress Proof (published by Penguin Random House, 2017), explored the spectrum of chronic stress from a multidimensional perspective. Mithu explains how we have developed our environment to be so regulated - generally warm rooms or cars, minimal movement throughout the day, that our autonomous nervous system doesn't have enough exercise to be in its best working condition. There is on-going research into how heat exposure (such as bikram yoga or saunas) and cold exposure can re-equilibrate a nervous system that is not quite balanced. This has links to auto-immune disease and general well-being. Mithu tells us how Charles Darwin, Florence Nightingale and Alfred, Lord Tennyson were all exponents of cold water showers for their health and recovery. Medicine, in recent years, has become reductionist. We need to be in our environment more to stimulate all of our senses. We also talk about the 'Blue Zones', brought to fame by Dan Buettner, where people live long lives for a variety of reasons. Some include the community element, the general need to move throughout the day, and good natural food. Dr. Storoni is currently working on her new book, Hyperefficient, to be published next year. As ever, Sasha Kehoe brings us a reflection of the week's news. This week we are delighted to celebrate the first birthday of RTL Today Radio! You can now find RTL Today radio on radioplayer.lu too.

Six more of Aesop's Fables. Then I share the longer poem The Lady of Shalott by Alfred, Lord Tennyson.

Alfred, Lord Tennyson, Ulysses.  Homer tells of how the mighty king of Ithaca arrived home after twenty years of war and wandering.  However, in Tennyson's monologue, one of the best-loved poems of the nineteenth century, we hear that he is restless and longs for the companionship and adventure that had come to define him.We love hearing from all of you.

Tonight I ask the question: what is love, and what is love poetry? Are poems about family and friendship love poems, just as much as those about romantic feeling, and longing, and heartbreak? And even more: what is romantic love? What, for instance, did T. S. Eliot mean when he said, “Love is most nearly itself/When here and now cease to matter,” or when Emily Dickinson wrote of “Wild nights”? The poems I read are: Ted Hughes (1930-1998), Bride and Groom Lie Hidden for Three Days Wallace Stevens (1879-1955), Bouquet of Belle Scavoir Katherine, Lady Dyer (c.1585-1654), Epitaph on Sir William Dyer Elizabeth Barret Browning (1806-1861), #43& #44in Sonnets from the Portuguese Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1809-1892), #7from In Memoriam Matthew Arnold (1822-1888), Dover Beach Ruth Pitter (1897-1992), But for Lust Elizabeth Jennings (1926-2001), One Flesh Seamus Heaney (1939-2013), #3 in Clearances Louise Glück (1943-), Brown Circle Eavan Boland (1944-2020), The Necessity for Irony Walt Whitman (1819-1892), To a Stranger Emily Dickinson (1830-1886), Wild Nights Don't forget to join Human Voices Wake Us on Patreon, or sign up for our newsletter here.

When Bruce Springsteen decided to double up on songs for his 1980 album, The River, he also decided to keep its biggest hit for himself instead of giving it to the punk rock band he originally wrote it for. With a title inspired by a poem by Alfred, Lord Tennyson, this song about the wanderlust of a traveling man resonated with fans so much that it became his first chart-topping hit, going all the way to number five on the Billboard Hot 100.

Edward Lear (12 May 1812[1][2] – 29 January 1888) was an English artist, illustrator, musician, author and poet, now known mostly for his literary nonsense in poetry and prose and especially his limericks, a form he popularised.[3] His principal areas of work as an artist were threefold: as a draughtsman employed to make illustrations of birds and animals; making coloured drawings during his journeys, which he reworked later, sometimes as plates for his travel books; and as a (minor) illustrator of Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poems. As an author, he is known principally for his popular nonsense collections of poems, songs, short stories, botanical drawings, recipes and alphabets. He also composed and published twelve musical settings of Tennyson's poetry.Bio via Wikipedia See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

We read The Odyssey! We actually did it!! And we only whined a little for weeks on end. Amelia lets her love of milfs fatally blind her to the will of the gods. Sarah overestimates how much Odysseus is naked and murdering people but maintains that just doing it once is enough to make it His Thing. Discussion points include: is this book good? Do we like Odysseus as a character and as a person? Is free will even a thing in this world of gods? And how can Sarah make all of this about her favorite poem from high school?  Media Discussed:The Odyssey, by Homer, translated by Emily Wilson The Terror (tv show) Ulysses, by Alfred, Lord Tennyson (read it here)The Song of Achilles, by Madeleine MillerCirce,  by Madeleine Miller

In this eighth season of The Well Read Poem, we are reading six poems about birds. Since antiquity, birds have supplied rich material to poets, being by turns regal, charming, absurd, delicate, dangerous, and philosophical creatures. This season is dedicated to the animal lovers in our audience, particularly to Emily Raible who suggested the subject in the first place. Today's poem is "The Eagle" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Poem begins at timestamp  7:51. "The Eagle" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson He clasps the crag with crooked hands; Close to the sun in lonely lands, Ring'd with the azure world, he stands.   The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls; He watches from his mountain walls, And like a thunderbolt he falls.
