In my research into reincarnation, I discovered that I was an author in 19th-century America named Mathew Franklin Whittier, the younger brother of Quaker poet John Greenleaf Whittier. I wrote poetry as well as prose, but all of it was published anonymously. I have been able to reconstruct his literary legacy. I have very little cognitive memory of that lifetime (just barely enough to prove it objectively), but I have full emotional and intuitive memory of that period. The modern understanding of the "Romantic Period" is mistaken and prejudicial, in the sense that "history is written by the victors" (the victors, in this case, being secular academia). This was first and foremost spiritual and moral poetry. It was intended to be inspired, which is to say, in a particular sense one could say it was "channeled" from higher intellectual and spiritual realms. Although obviously imagination would play a part, it was fundamentally neither imaginative, nor romantic. In the 19th century, "romance" meant adventure, and romantic literature was adventure literature.

Zora Neale Hurston was a wonderful writer who had to put up with the fact that the Harlem Renaissance was guarded zealously by the men who took part in it, thus keeping women in a subordinate position despite their obvious brilliance. Her prose is music. Her ability to write in dialect, legendary.

I’m fed up with hearing about lgbtq etc. They’ve ruined the rainbow as they’ve decided to take it as theirs Again a minority that seems to have a month for them and seem to be everywhere all the fu***n time. It drives me round the bend. Unsubscribed.
