“Call a Spade a Spade”: Miley Cyrus and the Ancient Greeks
The expression “call a spade a spade” comes from the work of Plutarch, who originally wrote “call a fig a fig & a trough a trough.” Figs & troughs were crude slang for the Vulva, so what Plutarch meant was “call a c*nt a c*nt”. When Erasmus (1466-1536) translated Plutarch’s work & changed it to a garden spade to avoid embarrassment. https://x.com/whoresofyore/status/1695709183457325427
Timeline of Music Notation
I've added about 40 entries to the Timeline of Music Notation. Mostly from the 1880s-1920s. And I've started adding links to image examples of the notations in the entries. https://twitter.com/Silpayamanant/status/1650438883908173827
I remember once in music theory, I asked my professor what musical notation in other cultures looked like. He asked what I meant, and I was like “well, obviously we standardized this at some point— so what did sheet music look like in non-European countries?” He did not know. https://twitter.com/imaginmatrix/status/1651800053256957952
