#16th century peasant

[toskarin]

it's been a while since I've published any sort of teasers for Jetkaiser.... so hopefully this counts?

#the angels = worms thing isn't arbitrary #it's a specific reference to a pretty fun book about how the average peasant in the 16th century related to and parsed theology #The Cheese and the Worms: The Cosmos of a Sixteenth-Century Miller #but that goes in the tags because it's boring background info and not very punchy

#be me #hike to some 16th century ruins #think 'the peasants were right to burn this place down' after the 6th 'surely this is the last bump' that turns out not to be #give up before reaching the top #get caught in a downpour on the way down while alone in the woods #ask self multiple times 'is this static electricity portending awful death from lightning strike or is my hair just messy' #get vibe-checked by a pack of the most beautiful yellow guard dogs you've ever seen and be found wanting #find out from friend who did reach the top (and said it wasn't worth the climb) #that if the two you had just set out from a different village you could have gone all the way up by car #anyway i'm gonna check myself for ticks now and go collapse into bed goodnight

Vampire Viktor in modern day, sighing wistfully and getting all mushy as he glances over to the reader: "I still remember the first time I ever saw your ankle. What a deliciously salacious night that was!"

HISTORICALLY ACCURATE DAVY THE TAILOR!

I thought it’d be nice to make a series of historically accurate reimaginings of the Monkees episode Fairy Tale, so I did this take on Davy the Tailor, Davy Jones’ character in the episode.

Speaking of the episode Fairy Tale, it’s more likely to take place somewhere in the 15th-16th centuries, so for this interpretation I took in heavy cues from 1500s Flemish peasant men and boys’ clothing as seen in Pieter Brueghel’s paintings.

Maybe soon enough, I’ll probably do more concept art of the other guys and maybe Davy soon. Don’t forget Princess Gwen and the rest.

crying my mom is watching some kind of documentary about young ppl not being able to socialize in person because they're always on their phones

#like every person is like 50+ in that show and they are sO confident in those bullshit they're saying #ohh young people aren't starting conversations with random people in the grocery store! the world is going to end!!¡!! #and like they're saying that making things less accessible (not putting signs on toilets etc) would help because then we would have to ASK #someone we don't know and that would force us to socialize #and how this is basically because of video games and the internet #and omg they're talking about like. people not marrying and having children like 200 years ago. what the fuck #girls the reason we're depressed is bc we're not living like peasants in the 16th century #this country is a joke for real #rambling

John Collier - The Egg Dance (1903)

The egg dance was a traditional Easter game involving the laying down of eggs on the ground and dancing among them whilst trying to break as few as possible. Another variation involved tipping an egg from a bowl, and then trying to flip the bowl over on top of it, all with only using one's feet and staying within a chalk circle drawn on the ground. Although, as shown in many of its depictions in art, the pastime is associated with peasant villages of the 16th and 17th century, one of the earliest references to egg-dancing relates to the marriage of Margaret of Austria and Philibert of Savoy on Easter Monday in 1498.

As in womenswear, early 17th century menswear styles maintained the basic features of late 16th century dress. However, come the 1610s romantic adornments and embellishments really started to explode in popularity. Rosettes were added to shoes, lace trimmed collars and cuffs, and sashes became a way to signify group membership in an era before military uniforms. While women's fashion became fuller, men's styles slimmed further and further until the silhouette was far removed from the boxy shape of the 1500s.

Are you haunted by a the ghost of a 16th century peasant child? You kinda come across as having symptoms (/j)

me in 2018 during my stress induced psychotic episode

#in hindsight its kinda funny. i was convinced i was being haunted for a solid month and a half #to the point of being unable to shower for fear of spectral voyeurism #and then one day i came back to my dorm after class and felt normal and was like well that was weird! anyways #took me another 2 years to realize it was a certified psychosis moment

It’s always strange when a word changes meaning to its opposite.

Take the Italian word bravo, which changed its meaning from “bad” to “good” in about a millennium. Many steps of the way, weirdly enough, left traces in English.

Its ultimate source is probably latin pravus, which means “evil”, “wicked”. This sense survived in English as the central root of “depraved”. When, in Dante’s Inferno, Charon addresses the newly damned souls as anime prave, he’s not paying them a compliment at all.

When pravus turned into bravo, it later came to indicate a particular type of evil-doer -- one who takes pleasure and pride in his own crimes. Swagger, if you will. Manzoni’s historical novel The Betrothed, set in the 16th century, uses the word bravi to designate the thugs cleaning up loose ends for feudal lords. In modern Italian, a bravata is a reckless stunt that will probably get someone hurt.

But of course the feudal lords were those who decided what counted as virtue, so they were “noble”, “gentle”, and “chivalrous” while peasants were “villainous” and “churlish”. Bravo took a nobler sense of pride, daring, and courage -- “bravery”, of course. This sense survives in English in “braveheart”, or “brave” as used for a Native American warrior.

In more refined centuries, the connotation of courage left place to one of competence. People, both in English and Italian, now call “bravo!” after particularly impressive performances. The word broadened over time, and people started saying to children when they behaved well.

Now, in current Italian, bravo simply means “good” -- una brava persona is “a good person”. Every step of the way was a fairly minor change of meaning; but the final result was to invert it completely!

Clothing listings up on Etsy

At long last... I've begun to list some of the things I made when I first got the idea to produce fashion accessories for the Renaissance set. These are all single items, prototypes of different kinds.

Gold Amber Hairnet, $40 CAD: A classy way to bundle your hair up or produce the illusion that you have some in the first place. Infuriate dead 16th century clerics with your vanity and pride in worldly display instead of covering your head in sober modesty!

Velvet Renaissance hat, $50 CAD: This style is called the "Italian Bonnet" and shows up in portraiture all over Europe... except Italy. It's a nice hat, though it fits high on the head instead of sticking snugly because Fashion. But I'm still stuck going??? Why??? (Note: Blue feather not included.)

Next up, garb that I've thoroughly test-driven myself:

Yellow Italian Renaissance dress ($150): A linen dress from the 1990s I got secondhand and dyed and decorated, inspired by the working-class women in the paintings of Vicenzo Campi and woodcuts of peasant folk dress of Tuscany and Milan. Normally fits a US 8/10, but is pictured here fitting a US 14. Skirt is for a short person, 36"/91 cm long

Decorated red apron ($50): Pure linen apron and recycled cotton waist tie, decorated with hand-stencilled fabric paint. A more affordable emulation of the elaborately embroidered 16th century apron in The Met Museum's collections.

Gold Fleur de Lis veil ($50): Oval-shaped, a couple centuries earlier than the other items. ABSOLUTELY guaranteed to enrage dead priests, see above. That's all I can say about it because I am being dragged away from the computer to go to my niece's dance recital by someone who will ruthlessly hit "post" for me. Message me if you have any questions!
