Charming and elegant Vera Vergani (1894-1989) was primarily an Italian stage actress, famous for her interpretations in the first stagings of Pirandello’s plays. She became one of the popular divas of the Italian cinema when she appeared in a dozen silent films between 1917 and 1921 for directors like Augusto Genina and Roberto Roberti.

 

Vera Vergani was born in Milan in 1894 She was the granddaughter of puppet master Vittorio Podrecca and sister of journalist and stage write Orio Vergani. She debuted on stage in 1912 at the Benini company. Two years later she joined the Talli-Melato-Giovannini company and in 1916 she became the ‘primattrice’ (leading lady) in the company of the famous actor Ruggero Ruggeri. She was only 21 at the time. She played Ophelia in William Shakespeare’s Hamlet and had a huge success with the title role in Gabriele D’Anunzio’s 'La Figlia di Jorio' (The Daughter of Jorio). She would play that role again and again. In 1916 film producer Giovanni Xilo managed to lure the popular actress to work for his Monopol-Rome Film. He hoped to add prestige to his productions with big names of the stage. Producers had done so earlier with Lyda Borelli and Ermete Zacconi. When her stage company was at rest in the summertime, Vergani played in two films for which Augusto Genina had written the original scripts: Il presagio/The Presentiment (Augusto Genina, 1916) and La menzogna/The Lie (Augusto Genina, 1916) with Tullio Carminati and Oreste Bilancia. They were produced at the same time, using the same cast and crew, at the Cines film studio, which was rented for the occasion. As the publicity indicates, Il presagio was "the drama of a beautiful woman who seems to be born for the joy of the eyes and for love, but instead meets futile caprice and tragic passion". La menzogna is "the violent story of a woman ready to sacrifice her honour to save her husband, but justice protects the good ones and will prevail in the end". The film did not have very good reception and Vergani was accused of betraying the theatre. "It is a night without a moonbeam", one critic wrote, and Vera didn’t want to know about film anymore for several years. On stage, she was very successful again with both critics and audiences in plays by Luigi Pirandello and Gabriele D'Annunzio. In the 1910s and 1920s, she remained foremost a stage actress, appreciated not only for her beauty and elegance but also for her excellent interpretations.

 

In 1919, Vera Vergani returned to the screen. Giuseppe Barattolo, the producer at Caesar Film, offered her to play in three films based on famous stage plays Dora o le spie/Dora or the spies (Robert Roberti, 1919) written by Victorien Sardou, La paura d'amare/Fear of love (Robert Roberti, 1920) by Dario Niccodemi, and Giulia di Trécoeur/Lucie de Trecoeur (Camillo De Riso, Augusto Genina, 1921) by Octave Feuillet. Robert Roberti had made his career as the director of films with diva Francesca Bertini. The critics didn’t like his direction too much but were full of praise for Vera’s lively interpretation of the dramas, along with her style of performance on stage. Another film based on a play by Niccodemi followed, L'envolée/La volata/The sprint (1919). Vera is dressed in the film as a daring aviator, "flaming expression of the new" as one critic wrote, who also noted in the aviation "the clearest emergence of these times". The actress also played in the film La modella/The model (Mario Caserini, 1920) based on a comedy by Alfredo Testoni, La buona figliola/The good daughter (Mario Caserini, 1919) based on Sabatino Lopez, Fior d'amore/Flower of love (Mario Caserini, 1921) again based on Niccodemi, and Caterina (Mario Caserini, 1921) written by Henri Lavedan. Her co-star in these films was Nerio Bernardi. She often repeated on screen, of which by now she knew all the odds and outs, her previous stage performances. But after La Vittima/The Victim (Jacques Creusy, 1921), a neglectable tearjerker, she returned to the stage for good.

 

During the fundamental years of her stage career, Vera Vergani played for the company of Dario Niccodemi. From 1921 on, she was the company's ‘primattrice’ for nine seasons. Her regular male co-star was Luigi Cimara. Memorable from these years were her performances in the first stagings of Luigi Pirandello’s plays 'Sei personaggi in cerca d'autore'(Six Characters in Search of an Author) (1921) and 'Ciascuno a suo modo' (Each on His Own Way) (1924). After the world premiere of 'Sei personaggi in cerca d'autore', hundreds of people flooded the stage and yelled violently at the author. The public, accustomed to the conventional theatre did not accept the avant-garde text. Pirandello had to barricade himself in Vergani’s dressing room. The beautiful actress suddenly stepped forward, made a silencing gesture to the raging crowd, and declared smiling sweetly: “Prima di toccare Pirandello dovete passare sul mio cadavere.“ (Before you touch Pirandello, you will have to pass my dead body). Pirandello survived and nowadays his play is considered a classic of the Italian theatre. Vittorio Paliotti writes at the website L’Isola that Vergani's photos graced the covers of European magazines and that she received an ‘avalanche’ with love letters from all over the world. Before her performances, her dressing rooms were transformed into greenhouses. The fascinating and elegant actress retired in 1930, after a last performance at the Teatro Manzoni in Milan. She starred once more in the play which had contributed to her fortune: 'La figlia di Iorio' by Gabriele D'Annunzio. The reason for her retirement was her marriage with Leonardo Pescarolo, a naval officer from the island of Procida. They had two children: assistant director Vera Pescarolo, who would become the wife of film director Giuliano Montaldo, and film producer Leo Pescarolo. Vera Vergano returned once to the cinema. In 1965 she appeared in a small role in Il morbidone/The Dreamer (Massimo Franciosa, 1965) with Anouk Aimée. Vera Vergani died in Procida in 1989. Her granddaughter and great-grandchildren are also working in the film business: costume designer Elisabetta Montaldo, assistant director Inti Carboni and makeup designer Jana Carboni.

"This is the octave day of your new birth. Today is fulfilled in you the sign of faith that was prefigured in the Old Testament by the circumcision of the flesh on the eighth day after birth. When the Lord rose from the dead, he put off the mortality of the flesh; his risen body was still the same body, but it was no longer subject to death. By his resurrection he consecrated Sunday, or the Lord’s day. Though the third after his passion, this day is the eighth after the Sabbath, and thus also the first day of the week."

– St Augustine.

 

My sermon for today can be read here.

Here's a new one that is about 3' x 4', Acrylic on paper. I learned a bunch of new things with this one. It sure was a fun piece to make. Sorry about the glare at the top.

Unknown date. The handwriting at the top of the pages says:

"Dominica prima post octavas (epipsa?)"

Almost certainly referring to the Octave of epiphany in the Christian calender.

The museum shut it's doors on 30th December 2015 due to financial issues.

Early morning we went for a walk through Saint Louise Square to check out the interesting architectural gems linng the squares perimeter. We entered the square off St. Denis and this is the first feature we met. A statue eulogizing Quebec poet Octave Crémazie.

 

ABOUT CREMAZIE:

This statue depicting a French Canadian soldier below Crémazie's bust stands in Montreal's Saint-Louis Square with Crémazie's name across the top and the years 1827-1879 (his years of birth and death).

 

Underneath the soldier are Crémazie's words: Pour mon drapeau je viens ici mourir (literally: "For my flag I come here to die").

 

There is also a Montreal metro station named for Crémazie on the orange line, located on the boulevard likewise named in his honour.

 

Octave Crémazie (April 16, 1827 – January 16, 1879) was a French Canadian poet and bookseller born in Quebec City. He is recognized both during and after his lifetime for his patriotic verse and his significant role in the cultural development of Quebec.

 

Crémazie has been called "the father of French Canadian poetry”.

ABOUT SAINT-LOUIS SQUARE:

The land where Saint-Louis Square sits was once intended for the city's reservoir. When it was acquired in 1848, it seemed the most logical use for the burgeoning city. However, by the time the city was ready to build, the population had grown so much that the amount of area allotted was no longer suitable for a reservoir large enough to serve the masses.

 

Instead, in 1879, the acreage was transformed into a beautiful park. The square was named for two of the city's most prominent businessmen, brothers Emmanuel and Jean-Baptiste Saint-Louis.

 

The area around Square St-Louis quickly became THE place to live. Shortly after the park was built, magnificent houses began to spring up around it. These were the homes of the upper-middle-class French Canadians who could afford to build grand domiciles with a view of the square.

 

Through the years, its ornate nineteenth century houses have also been favored by Montreal's artistic set, including writers, poets, musicians, actors, film makers, and visual artists.

Les Marches Folkloriques de l'Entre-Sambre-et-Meuse trouvent leurs origines dans les processions de croix banales du moyen-âge. Celles-ci avaient lieu dans l'octave de la Pentecôte et étaient destinées à rendre hommage et à permettre de verser l'obole à l'abbaye suzeraine voisine dont dépendait le clergé.

L'escorte militaire qui les accompagnait avait pour but d'en rehausser l'éclat mais aussi de préserver les pèlerins contre les bandes de malfrats qui rôdaient à cette époque dans nos contrées. Ces compagnies spéciales d'archers et arbalétriers que l'on appelait "serments" furent les ancêtres des marcheurs.

 

C'est dans le courant du XVIII siècle qu'une crise importante frappa nos Marches car de plus en plus ces cérémonies devenaient un prétexte pour s'amuser et tourner le religieux en dérision, ce qui ne plut pas au clergé qui interdit ces manifestations.

Les coutumes reprendront en 1802 après le concordat signé entre Napoléon Ier et le Pape Pie VII. C'est à ce moment que les Marches prirent un nouvel essor et devinrent des escortes militaires.

En ce qui concerne les costumes adoptés dans nos manifestations aujourd'hui, ils sont du premier et du second empire. A ce sujet, il est certain que l'on a d'abord marché en premier empire car de nombreuses défroques de l'armée de Napoléon étaient disponibles dans nos régions. Ces uniformes se dégradant, nos Marcheurs ont adoptés les costumes militaires de l'époque qui a immédiatement suivi, c'est-à-dire les uniformes que l'on appelle du second empire.

Bien que l’aspect religieux ne semble pas prépondérant, il s’agit quand même d’une procession religieuse avec sortie de la châsse et des saints patrons, bénédictions, messe, …

 

The Folk Marches of Entre-Sambre-et-Meuse find their origins in the banal cross processions of the Middle Ages. These took place in the octave of Pentecost and were intended to pay homage and allow the payment of the mite to the neighboring suzerain abbey on which the clergy depended.

The military escort which accompanied them was intended to enhance its splendor but also to protect the pilgrims against the gangs of thugs who were roaming our region at that time. These special companies of archers and crossbowmen called "oaths" were the ancestors of the walkers.

 

It was during the 18th century that a major crisis struck our Marches because more and more these ceremonies became a pretext for having fun and making fun of religion, which did not please the clergy who banned these demonstrations.

Customs resumed in 1802 after the concordat signed between Napoleon I and Pope Pius VII. It was at this time that the Marches took on new development and became military escorts.

Regarding the costumes adopted in our demonstrations today, they are from the first and second empire. On this subject, it is certain that we first marched in the first empire because many cast-offs from Napoleon's army were available in our regions. As these uniforms deteriorated, our Walkers adopted the military costumes of the era which immediately followed, that is to say the uniforms we call the Second Empire.

Although the religious aspect does not seem predominant, it is still a religious procession with the release of the reliquary and patron saints, blessings, mass, etc.

Bass clarinets are an octave lower than soprano clarinets, but some models have additional keys for an extended brass range. Bass clarinets evolved during the eighteenth century from large basset horns and more directly from the bassoon-shaped chalumeau. Today, bass clarinets follow the straight form in Bb, which Adolphe Sax developed around 1836. Ever since, the bass clarinet has been in frequent use.

See where this picture was taken. [?]

The "CREATED" universe of matter is the result of concentration of Mind upon the idea of form and then the generation of power by diverting low potential into centripetal vortices in order to hold the idea of Mind into the appearance of form until form disappears through mental decentration.

 

The universe of matter is a registration of the energy expended by Mind in the effort of thinking. The exact energy of the action of thinking is registered in the electro-positive charging systems and the reaction of the action is registered in the electro-negative discharging systems. The charging systems are electrically dominated, centripetally, closing, contracting systems. The low potential speed-time dimension of energy of the highest octave is gradually accumulated into the high potential power-time dimension of the fifth octave. When these two opposing dimensions equalize in the tenth octave of the cycle is completed and begins.

The Octave of Easter, known as Low Sunday, Quasimodo Sunday, has also come to be known in more recent times as "Divine Mercy Sunday." It was through St. John Paul II that the Octave of Easter received this new title in the Church's calendar. Drawing inspiration from the diary of Sister Faustina, the Octave of Easter has received a renewed emphasis on the mercy of God.

 

In a beautiful homily delivered on this day by St. Augustine of Hippo, he declared to the newly baptized, "You have been buried with Christ by baptism into death in order that, as Christ has risen from the dead, you also may walk in newness of life." For it was traditionally on this day that the Church received her newly baptized catechumens with maternal delight. Holy Mother Church rejoiced over her new children, all of which is made possible by the mercy of God in calling us to Himself while we were yet sinners.

 

St. Faustina recorded these words from our Lord Himself: "I desire that the Feast of Mercy be a refuge and shelter for all souls, and especially for poor sinners. On that day the very depths of My tender mercy are open. I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon those souls who approach the fount of My mercy." May we turn with trust to the Divine Mercy of Almighty God and seek Him in all things.

A ce sujet, il est certain que l'on a d'abord marché en premier empire car de nombreuses défroques de l'armée de Napoléon étaient disponibles dans nos régions. Ces uniformes se dégradant, nos Marcheurs ont adoptés les costumes militaires de l'époque qui a immédiatement suivi, c'est-à-dire les uniformes que l'on appelle du second empire.

Bien que l’aspect religieux ne semble pas prépondérant, il s’agit quand même d’une procession religieuse avec sortie de la châsse et des saints patrons, bénédictions, messe, …

  

The Folk Marches of Entre-Sambre-et-Meuse find their origins in the banal cross processions of the Middle Ages. These took place in the octave of Pentecost and were intended to pay homage and allow the payment of the mite to the neighboring suzerain abbey on which the clergy depended.

The military escort which accompanied them was intended to enhance its splendor but also to protect the pilgrims against the gangs of thugs who were roaming our region at that time. These special companies of archers and crossbowmen called "oaths" were the ancestors of the walkers.

 

It was during the 18th century that a major crisis struck our Marches because more and more these ceremonies became a pretext for having fun and making fun of religion, which did not please the clergy who banned these demonstrations.

Customs resumed in 1802 after the concordat signed between Napoleon I and Pope Pius VII. It was at this time that the Marches took on new development and became military escorts.

Regarding the costumes adopted in our demonstrations today, they are from the first and second empire. On this subject, it is certain that we first marched in the first empire because many cast-offs from Napoleon's army were available in our regions. As these uniforms deteriorated, our Walkers adopted the military costumes of the era which immediately followed, that is to say the uniforms we call the Second Empire.

Although the religious aspect does not seem predominant, it is still a religious procession with the release of the reliquary and patron saints, blessings, mass, etc.

In 2017 it is 100 years ago that TOUR DE FRANCE winner OCTAVE LAPIZE was killed in action during the Great War of 1914-1918.

 

Octave Lapize (1887-1917) was a French professional road racing cyclist and track cyclist.

 

Most famous for winning the 1910 Tour de France and a bronze medal at the 1908 Summer Olympics in the men's 100 kilometres, He was a three-time winner of one-day classics, Paris–Roubaix and Paris–Brussels.

 

Lapize is noted for looking at some Tour officials on the climb of the Col du Tourmalet in the 1910 Tour de France and yelling, "Vous êtes des assassins! Oui, des assassins!' ("You are murderers! Yes, murderers!"). The stage in question, Luchon - Bayonne, was 326 kilometers in length, featured 7 brutal climbs, a.o. Peyresourde, Aspin, Tourmalet and Aubisque and was raced on unsealed roads with single-gear bicycles. This was indeed the Tour's first time in the high mountains with two stages in the Pyrenees.

 

The First World War ended the cycling career of the former Tour winner. As a fighter pilot in the French army, Octave Lapize was shot down near Flirey, Meurthe-et-Moselle on 14 July 1917. Severely injured, he died in a hospital in Toul.
