Provisional programme of the Conference A Passage to India - Centenary Revaluations has just been posted! facebook.com/events/6920157…

Mr. Eager and Miss Lavish began to talk against each other on the subject of Alessio Baldovinetti. Was he a cause of the Renaissance, or was he one of its manifestations? #aroomwithaview #emforster
Neptune was already unsubstantial in the twilight, half god, half ghost, and his fountain plashed dreamily to the men and satyrs who idled together on its marge. #aroomwithaview #emforster
The celebration of the centenary of A Passage to India bring still new readings of the novel. Another voice from India. thefederal.com/category/featu…
Lucy beheld the horrible fate that overtook three Papists who proceeded to the Machiavelli memorial. They touched the stone with their fingers, and then retreated. What could this mean? Lucy realized that they had mistaken Machiavelli for some saint, hoping to acquire virtue.

Sameer Pandya recalls Forster's and his own Passage to India on the novel's centenary lareviewofbooks.org/article/a-pass…
Of course, it must be a wonderful building. But how like a barn! And how very cold! Of course, it contained frescoes by Giotto, in the presence of whose tactile values she was capable of feeling what was proper. But who was to tell her which they were? #aroomwithaview #emforster
"The Signora had no business to do it" said Miss Bartlett, "no business at all. She promised us south rooms with a view close together." The promised rooms were somewhere on the left of Ponte Vecchio but the original buildings were bombed during WW2. #aroomwithaview #emforster
Some hot chestnut paste gave them strength to drift into another Piazza, large and dusty, on the farther side of which rose a black-and-white facade of surpassing ugliness. It was Santa Croce. The adventure was over. #aroomwithaview #emforster
I suggest that the only books that influence us are those for which we are ready, and which have gone a little further down our particular path than we have yet gone ourselves. - E.M. Forster E.M. Forster in his rooms at King’s College, Cambridge.
Observe how Giotto in these frescoes - now, unhappily, ruined by restoration - is untroubled by the snares of anatomy and perspective. Could anything be more majestic, more pathetic, beautiful, true? #aroomwithaview #emforster @EmersonRoom
And as for the frescoes, I see no truth in them. Look at that fat Man in blue! He must weigh as much as I do, and he is shopping into the sky like an air baloon. #aroomwithaview #emforster @EmersonRoom
Lucy and the old man wandered not unpleasantly about Santa Croce, which, though it is like a barn, has harvested many beautiful things inside its walls. #aroomwithaview #emforster @EmersonRoom
Lucy's taste was catholic, and she extended uncritical approval to every well-known name. Something appropriate for Spring then. #aroomwithaview #emforster

Kutup Yazı’ndan Hindistan’a Bir Geçit’e, Maurice’ten Manzaralı Bir Oda’ya… E.M. Forster’ın unutulmaz eserlerini incelemek ve satın almak için: bit.ly/44liEbl
@susiesbookrevs I’m going to suggest E.M Forster’s Howard’s End and some poetry collections—T. S. Eliot & Wallace Stevens. Also Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales. And, Howard’s End has a good movie version & Chaucer is mentioned in A Knight’s Tale.
I am reading D.H. Lawrence's profile and apparently, at a point, E.M. Forster had to challenge the widely held view that Lawrence was a pornographer who had wasted his considerable talents.
It wouldn't be midsummer without a ravishing country house affair (film) to enjoy at Lauriston Castle, and this year we're delighted to return to the work of Merchant-Ivory with their 1992 adaptation of E.M.Forster's 1910 novel 'Howards End'. Book: edinburghmuseums.org.uk/whats-on/film-…
#LGBTQ History 1. b. Apr. 29, 1863, Constantine Cavafy, Alexandria, Egypt, Greek poet, journalist, self-identified ‘poet-historian,’ gay themes abound in his sensual and sexually explicit poetry, he also died on this day; close friend of gay writer, E.M. Forster. d. 1933
Born #otd in 1863: Constantine Cavafy (d. 1933), Alexandrine poet who exemplified the Hellenism of the Greek diaspora; he was a master of intimate sketches drawn from personal life or historical figures.
@RogersHotHair Day-Lewis is wonderful in A Room with a View, based on an E.M. Forster novel.

I often had him in mind when I walked the streets. He was so very present. It was just simply that his chair was empty, so to speak. — Lawrence Durrell, honoring Cavafy b. 29 April 1863 (Alexandria) d. 29 April 1933 (Alexandria) Cavafy's Flat Rue Lepsius, Alexandria
@Saskers2022 @elonmusk @MattWalshBlog @publius_5 Ah. Thank you!
"The Garden of Eden," pursued Mr. Emerson, still descending, "which you place in the past, is really yet to come. We shall enter it when we no longer despise our bodies" (E.M. Forster, A Room with a View)
Nothing beats that first cup of coffee at the start of the weekend.☕️ Have a super Saturday, lovely people. Jean Patchett | 1954
@Saskers2022 @ylecun @brewster_kahle Thanks for the correction. This story is uncannily prescient it mind-blowing ways!
Need an E.M. Forster summer, just very soft vibes 🪟🍃🌾☕️🫖
Some inspiration and food for thought from the English author E. M. Forster to start off your Wednesday. We’ll be walking into the weekend with our best foot forward!
Today I read "The machine stops" by E. M. Forster. Absolutely crazy that this was written in 1909, because it not only predicts modern technologies like the internet, but also many of the psychological consequences, the trend of being increasingly helpless but justifying it,
@ylecun @brewster_kahle But when all knowledge gets polluted by confabulating AI - then we are truly doomed. See E.M Forster's "The Machine Stops" 1907 (the original "The Matrix"); the AI mediation destroys the world's empirical understanding. An important text for AI folks to read...
@Ewan_C_Forbes Exactly. Between Orwell, Huxley, Arthur C Clarke, and an honourable mention for E M Forster for The Machine Stops, nobody even comes close to Brits for predicting what dystopian futurism will look like. We'll have the very best and darkest misery
Horses rampaging through the streets of London, Big Ben sounding the wrong time and now the Moulin Rouge losing its sails? I would advise against any unnecessary carriage journeys to Fiesole.
