TIL about William Sharp, aka Fiona Macleod's Tochmarc Étaíne play (subsequently adapted into an opera), which is....um. Interesting in how it adapts the material.

#here's the thing to understand about Fiona Macleod: there is always a hint of REAL material in her work. (or. maybe not always.)#But it's almost always overtaken by her own fantasies #including a VERY questionable understanding of how the Irish language works (which is how you get HP Lovecraft's bungled Irish in #The Rats in the Wall)#(she's also interesting from the perspective of trans history since...it's not CERTAIN because of the gap in vocabulary)#(but...I do think that there was Something Gender going on here)#(beyond just wanting a Celtsona)#on the note of terminology and trans identity: I differentiate between the two of them and use he/him and she/her pronouns respectively #because that's what he used #but I also am doing it with the awareness that if William Sharp was born today he might have chosen something different #Fiona Macleod #William Sharp #tochmarc étaíne

A handful of pine-seed will cover mountains with the green majesty of a forest. I too will set my face to the wind and throw my handful of seed on high.” ~ Fiona MacLeod

A lot of people assume that Fiona is a very old Scottish name, but the first known Scottish Fiona is from the 1890s: Fiona Macleod, the enor

A couple of weeks ago I spoke to The Allusionist about Fiona Macleod, who she was, and where she got her name (and the fact that some people didn't know how to pronounce it). I hope you get the chance to listen!

A part 2 will follow in the next week or so!

Patrick Benham, The Avalonians (Glastonbury: Gothic Image Publications, 2006). https://www.ebay.com/itm/254581631757

The days slid by, like wave on wave into an ebbing tide, and perhaps the King gave no sign: but one day he would give a sign: and that sign was a laughing that was heard somewhere, upon the lonely hills, or by desolate shores, or in the heart of him who heard. And whenever the King laughed, he who heard would go from his clan to join the King in the shadow.
