Charles Darwin left Tahiti by the HMS Beagle on November 26th, 1835. Before that he breakfasted there while folks back home enjoyed their five o'clock tea. See also snrk.de/page_breakfast. #OnThisDay #OTD #CharlesDarwin #HMSbeagle #breakfast #TheHuntingOfTheSnark Image: snrk.de/page_snarked...

From 2013 to 2017 I used ipernity to present my findings in Lewis Carroll and Henry Holiday's "The Hunting of the Snark". After that I started my Snark blog snrk.de.

Entre os usuários com "Ghibli" no nome, @ghiblibrasil.bsky.social parece ser a única conta oficial do Studio Ghibli no Bluesky. O Studio Ghibli estaria interessado em contribuir com algo para a comemoração do 150º aniversário de "A Caçada ao Snark" em abril de 2026? #SnarkHeadsUp

Dear Bard, "The Hunting of the Snark" (1876) is one of Lewis Carroll and Henry Holiday's books which has been written to be re-read and re-looked at many times. You might like Henry Holiday's pictorial allusions (engraved by Joseph Swain) to John Martin's painting "The Bard" (c. 1871).
