@litlovers february-march book club pick ↳ little women by louisa may alcott 

a year seems very long to wait before i see them, but remind them that while we wait we may all work, so that these hard days need not be wasted. i know they will remember all i said to them, that they will be loving children to you, will do their duty faithfully, fight their bosom enemies bravely, and conquer themselves so beautifully that when i come back to them i may be fonder and prouder than ever of my little women. (insp.)

be still, sad heart! and cease repining, behind the clouds is the sun still shining; thy fate is the common fate of all — into each life some rain must fall, some days must be dark and dreary.

for @hugoevelyns, who deserves the best of everything.

margaret, the eldest of the four, was sixteen, and very pretty, being plump and fair, with large eyes, plenty of soft brown hair, a sweet mouth, and white hands, of which she was rather vain.

happy birthday, love!

Julia the Elder was the only child of the first Roman emperor Augustus, who divorced her mother Scribonia the day of Julia’s birth. Julia was soon taken from her mother and raised in the household of her father and stepmother Livia. Augustus was strict and controlling of her education and social life, but he also held her in great affection and is said to have fondly remarked that he had two spoiled daughters to put up with, Rome and Julia.

Like many members of Augustus’s family, Julia was married off several times as part of his dynastic plans. Her first marriage at age fourteen to her cousin Marcellus didn’t last long, as he died two years later in 23 BCE. At eighteen, Julia married her father’s general and closest friend Agrippa, who was twenty-five years her senior. They had five children: Gaius Caesar, Julia the Younger, Lucius Caesar, Agrippina the Elder, and Agrippa Postumus. Augustus adopted Gaius and Lucius as his heirs and oversaw their educations. Shortly after Agrippa’s death in 12 BCE, Augustus arranged for Julia to marry her stepbrother Tiberius. The two reportedly held each other in contempt, and the marriage was unhappy. They only had one child, a son who died in infancy, and they separated in at least 6 BCE, when Tiberius retired to Rhodes without Julia, if not earlier.

Julia’s downfall came in 2 BCE when she was accused of violating Augustus’s anti-adultery laws. Some historians, both Roman and modern, also believe that there was an element of political conspiracy to the actions of Julia and her group. Augustus was furious with her behavior and showed no mercy even though she was his only child. Iullus Antonius, the most notable of Julia’s alleged lovers – and the most politically dangerous, as he was the son of Augustus’s enemy Mark Antony – was forced to commit suicide, and Julia and the rest of her alleged lovers were exiled. Julia was confined to the island of Pandateria with her mother, and five years later was moved to Rhegium on the mainland, but she was never permitted to return to Rome. Augustus also forbade her burial in the family mausoleum. She died in exile in 14 CE, not long after Augustus’s death; some Roman historians claim that Tiberius cut off her food supply after he succeeded Augustus as emperor, and others that she wasted away from grief after hearing of Tiberius’s murder of her youngest son.

While most Roman historians describe Julia as exaggeratedly promiscuous and hedonistic, Macrobius recalls her wit, charm, kindness, and love of literature and writes that she was beloved by the people of Rome. He attributes many witticisms to her, one of the most famous being a response to an observation that she didn’t share her father’s frugal lifestyle: “He forgets that he is Caesar, but I never forget that I am Caesar’s daughter.”

female character meme: a female character in a book     ↳ Mina Harker (Dracula)

“In the struggle which we have before us to rid the earth of this terrible monster we must have all the knowledge and all the help which we can get. […] We need have no secrets amongst us. Working together and with absolute trust, we can surely be stronger than if some of us were in the dark.” She looked at me so appealingly, and at the same time manifested such courage and resolution in her bearing, that I gave in at once to her wishes.

I shall never forget the last glimpse which I had of the inn-yard and its crowd of picturesque figures, all crossing themselves, as they stood round the wide archway, with its background of rich foliage of oleander and orange trees in green tubs clustered in the centre of the yard.

@storyseekers event 23: nostalgia/childhood favorites

you laugh at me when i say i want to be a lady, but i mean a true gentlewoman in mind and manners, and i try to do it as far as i know how. i can’t explain exactly, but i want to be above the little meannesses and follies and faults that spoil so many women. i’m far from it now, but i do my best, and hope in time to be what mother is.

happy birthday, @amycurtismarchs 🤍

a for amy march, chosen by @sudaji​

amy is like the lark she writes about, trying to get up among the clouds, but always dropping down into its nest again. dear little girl! she’s so ambitious, but her heart is good and tender, and no matter how high she flies, she never will forget home.
