ACCADDE TODAY – Birth of Gustave Flaubert.
On December 12, 1821, in Rouen, was born Gustave Flaubert, a French writer best known for his immortal novel “Madame Bovary” .
Here are some of his phrases to remember him and make our best wishes:
“There is nothing so humiliating as seeing the idiots succeed in the businesses in which we have failed.”
“Do not read, as children do, to have fun, or, as ambitious, to instruct you. No, read for a living. “
“You can be masters of what you do, but never of what you feel.”
“Nervous. It is said every time that nothing is understood of an illness; the explanation satisfies the interlocutor. “
“The most glorious moments of your life are not the so-called days of success, but rather those days when you feel a challenge to life rise from depression and discomfort, and the promise of future realizations.”
I just have to say “happy birthday”.

Alright or All Right?
You may have thought yesterday, when reading about the word almost, that there are a few other similarly-constructed words in English. There’s already, alright, and altogether, all of which are really just all + ready/right/together. And often you can replace the single word with all + together etc. Not always though…

Get your Mind out of the… Restroom? Euphemisms for Toilet
Seriously, please. After I wrote about eau de Cologne recently, a few of you referred to eaudetoilette in the comments, and it’s clear similarity to the English word toilet (and in fact, eaudetoilette could be directly translated as toiletwater).
Toilet is a surprisingly interesting word. On the surface of course it just refers to the object that stands in your bathroom, but how and when people use it (the word, not the actual toilet) varies quite a bit around the world.

Bathers
Standard
Gerhard Richter-Badende (Bathers) 1967 As I noted in my previous post on the extraordinaryGerman artist Gerhard Richter (seeThe Reader) his constant re-invention, technical mastery and breath of subject matter has created a body of work without parallel in contemporary art.
He has also shown an constant engagement with and re-visioning ofthe work of the Old Masters, including Vermeer, Titian and Ingres. Badende, featuredabove, takes as itsstarting point Ingres’sThe Turkish Bath, one of the most sensual and erotic paintings ever, while Kleine Badendebelow references the same artist’sThe Small Bather.Grey is to Richter what blue was to Yves Klein (Dreams of Desire 48 (Blue), however the smudgedobscurity of Badende actually accentuates the erotic possibilities inherent in the scene. Richter’s third wife Sabine Moritz is the model for Kleine Badende, painted in the blurry photo-realistic style that he is justifiably famous for.

The Turkish Bath-Jean Auguste Dominque Ingres 1862-1863 The French Revolution had swept away the frivolous excesses of Rococo (see Dreams of Desire 64 (Boucher’s Odalisques) and two competing tendencies dominated French during the first half of the Nineteenth Century: the wild grandiose Romanticism of Delacroix and the somber, stately Neo-Classicism best personified by Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres.
Ingres painted a number of important erotic paintings including the Valpinçon Bather of 1808, La Grande Odalisque of 1814 and L’Odalisque à l’esclave from 1839, however his most famous painting is The Turkish Bath from 1862-1863, completed when Ingres was 83 years old.
Portraying a group of nude women in a bath at a harem, The Turkish Bath is suffused with a lush hothouse atmosphere that heightens the erotic charge of the painting. Ingres erotic works would have a major impact upon the Modernists including Picasso and Matisse while the Post Modernist German…
