I befriended professional synchronized swimmers in the process, and Lord knows we could not have achieved Esther’s grace and beauty in the water without them.įred Cole’s ad featuring swimwear lined with parachute material.ĭuring this time, swimwear was not made with practicality in mind. It featured dancing in the Redwoods, on the Oregon Coast, and in the Puget Sound. We produced a music video that featured synchronized swimming in nature. Esther died during our campaign, which only deepened my conviction to move forward. I began to correspond with the International Academy of Aquatic Arts I launched a Kickstarter to spark its revival and I voraciously watched every YouTube video I could find. That’s how the beginning of the Olivia Darlings land-based (and sometimes water) synchronized swimming team began. I wanted these fantastical aqua shows to become a part of popular culture and my everyday life here in Portland, Oregon, so I began by first recruiting my friends. My discovery of Esther inspired me to plot the revival of aquatic arts. I could have easily seen her in the line up of all those beautiful ladies. I entered an enchanting sequence-filled dream that I wish I could have shared with my grandma Hazel. I saw her first on YouTube during a show-and-tell film evening with friends that forever changed me. Discovering Esther was like swimming on the back of a kaleidoscopic sparkle pony.

Imagined community book6/9/2023 Introduction to the Theory of Imagined Community We will be exploring the concept of imagined community during this module as a way to analyze the influence that the idea of community has within Latin American and LatinX cultural production. Two examples of such as imagined communities are: the concept of Aztlan (for Chicanos/Mexicanos), and Borninquen (for Puerto Rican Communities). Scholars also focus on the influence that these ideas about LatinX populations as being an identifiable “people” that have historically been within a specific geography have in forming the imagined notions of community. And, they also focus on the power of producing ideas about the lands and places LatinX populations dream about-the myths of historical homelands for example. Scholars writing on the topic of the Latino imaginary dissect the meaning of terms such as “Latina/Latino, and LatinX. This chapter grapples with the definition of “community.”

Cleopatra’s chief nurse, Ftatateeta, emerges from the palace and informs the guards that Cleopatra, who is terrified of the Romans, has run away.Ĭleopatra is sound asleep between the paws of a Sphinx. A Nubian sentinel runs inside the palace to warn everyone of the advancing army. A wounded Egyptian soldier named Bel Affris staggers through the gate to warn the Egyptians that Julius Caesar’s powerful Roman army is on its way to conquer Egypt and will reach them soon. The action shifts to Cleopatra’s palace in Syria, where she has been banished by her brother Ptolemy, with whom she is fighting for control of Egypt. Ra recounts how Julius Caesar defeated Pompey at the Battle of Pharsalus and chased him to Egypt, where he was ultimately assassinated by Lucius Septimius in 48 B.C.E. He also establishes the origins of Julius Caesar’s rivalry with Pompey, explaining that the gods favored Caesar, who lived boldly and had an affinity for progress and exploration. The Egyptian god Ra addresses the play’s audience directly, belittling them for their ignorance and insulting contemporary (mid-Victorian) British society.
