The Who Moodboards

A nice young lady with a degree in history and literature. I have been legally considered an adult for a while, but the bouncer still wants to see my ID. I enjoy my studies and all the lame nerdy stuff that comes with it. I also enjoy The Who and Pete Townshend's stupid face. In a desperate need for an easy artistic outlet I combined all of them and decided to make it everyone's problem. Enjoy!

Omg your new post! Correct me if I'm wrong but.... you like The Who AND Star Trek? MA'AM, ARE YOU EVEN A REAL PERSON AND WILL YOU MARRY ME??????

Oh yeah, I do love The Original Series! Very much. Like, A LOT. However, encouraging me to start rambling about it is ill-advised, since I won't be able to stop and it will be embarrassing for everyone involved. 🖖🏻

I've had my fair share of existential crises, but generally speaking I'd say I am a real, existing human being.

Mother told me not to marry strangers. Reveal yourself, and I will consider! 😘

The Who but they’re Russian novels

PETE TOWNSHEND - Anna Karenina // Анна Каренина (Leo Tolstoy 1878)

Only by occupation in the day, by morphine at night, could she stifle the fearful thought of what would be if he ceased to love her. 

JOHN ENTWISTLE - Crime and Punishment //  Преступление и наказание  (Fyodor Dostoevsky 1866)

Suffering, too, is a good thing. Suffer! Fling yourself straight into life, without deliberation; don’t be afraid - the flood will bear you to the bank and set you safe on your feet again. 

KEITH MOON - The Master and Margarita // Мастер и Маргарита (Mikhail Bulgakov 1967)

Follow me, reader! Who told you that there is no true, faithful, eternal love in this world! May the liar’s vile tongue be cut out! Follow me, my reader, and me alone, and I will show you such a love.

ROGER DALTREY - Eugene Onegin // Евгений Оне́гин (Alexander Pushkin 1833)

I’ve known great beauties proudly distant As cold and chaste as winter-snow; Implacable to all resistant Impossible for the mind to know.

you're doing fantastic work! I can't wrap my head around how these all just FIT so well ❤ and your edits look so cool and unique!

Omg thank you! 🖤 I'm quite amazed at the fact that the results of my endless procrastination have actually found an audience 😀

[whoodboards]

Omg these are amazing! I love history and classic rock so these are perfect <3 I hope I'm not too nosy or anything, but what kind of history you study? Just curious :) Anyway, love these!

Thank you! 🖤

Not too nosy at all! I have a master's degree in cultural history. I'm specialized in the history of european cinema, but I occasionally dabble (very casually, mind you!) in other subjects, since I have many interests.

The Who but they’re medieval literature

PETE:  Divina Commedia  (Dante Alighieri 1320)

Here sighs and lamentations and loud cries were echoing across the starless air so that, as soon as I set out, I wept.

Strange utterances, horrible pronouncements, accents of anger, words of suffering, and voice shrill and faints, and beating hands

JOHN: Le Morte D’Arthur (Sir Thomas Malory 1470)

Always Sir Arthur lost so much blood that it was a marvel he stood on his feet, but he was so full of knighthood that knightly he endured the pain.

ROGER: The Canterbury Tales (Geoffrey Chaucer c.1400)

Love will not be constrain'd by mastery. When mast'ry comes, the god of love anon Beateth his wings, and, farewell, he is gone. Love is a thing as any spirit free.

KEITH: Decameron (Giovanni Boccaccio c.1353)

Kissed mouth don’t lose its fortune, on the contrary it renews itself just as the moon does.

Honestly your blog is so creative and innovative I LOVE IT AAAAH KEEP IT UP HONEY💞

Aww thank you! This made my day 🖤

The Who but they’re classic horror novels

PETE: Oscar Wilde - The Picture of Dorian Gray (1890)

What the worm was to a corpse, his sins would be to the painted image on the canvas. They would mar its beauty and eat away its grace. They would defile it, and make it shameful.

JOHN: Mary Shelley - Frankenstein: or, The Modern Prometheus (1818)

As the memory of past misfortunes pressed upon me, I began to reflect upon their cause - the monster, whom I had created, the miserable daemon whom I had sent abroad into the world.

KEITH: Bram Stoker - Dracula (1897)

I am all in the sea of wonders. I doubt; I fear; I think strange things which I dare not confess to my own soul. God keep me, if only for the sake of those dear to me!

ROGER: Henry James - The Turn of the Screw (1898)

Of course I was under the spell, and the wonderful part is that even at the time, I perfectly knew I was. But I gave myself up to it; it was an antidote to any pain, and I had more pains than one.
