In One Star and a Dark Voyage, we are brought into intimate communion with such things as a wound on a sun-freckled shin, a worm as stigmata in a child’s hand, a bird lying in a cupped hand, a body hovering in the darkness, the spot where an elk slept – all evoking the ephemeral nature of life. These pictures, made with Bosworth’s customary 8x10 camera, speak to our connections with nature: bear paws hauntingly human, roses cut to bring beauty indoors, names carved into a tree trunk declaring one’s love forever. In her first monograph with TIS books, the much-heralded photographer Barbara Bosworth has interwoven the visceral and ethereal to visually build a sense of the delicate and fragile nature of life, at a place where the edges of heaven and earth blur. ![]()

A hollowed model will still have thick walls and an internal lattice to retain structural integrity. Larger models will often be printed hollow for a number of reasons: to reduce the prevalence of print lines, improve the longevity of our printers, and reduce the risk of printing failures. However, some small nubs or pits may remain that require light sanding to remove. We use best practices when removing these supports to reduce damage to the model. Similar to spues, these can leave marks on the surface of a model. This ensures the surface is clean and ready for priming/painting.ģD printing requires the use of supports to properly print models.

Just looking at the structure of the poems, without reading any words, allows one to see similarities. He wanted to have the same relationship Whitman had with his birthplace, but he also wanted to record his current version of the United States, which had differed so much from what Whitman described. ![]() I feel it is possible that Ginsberg read, and was inspired by, Whitman, and was perhaps flooded with passion and disappointment and hope for the country that he saw in Whitman’s words. I feel that “Song of Myself” is a poem written for and about America, or at least the America that Whitman experienced. “Howl” is, arguably, for and about the America that Ginsberg experienced. When I was reading Whitman’s “Song of Myself”, I could not help seeing the similarities between this poem and Allen Ginsberg’s poem, “Howl.” It is true that they were written in completely different eras “Song of Myself” was originally written in 1855, and “Howl” was completed about 100 years later, in 1956. ![]() ![]() This new English translation is the first to include extensive notes providing crucial historical and cultural context.
