86. Edward Carpenter And The Age Of Aquarius - © Dr Shepherd Simpson turn on work in the 1920s by the English author Edward Carpenter 1844 1929 AD, In 1929 Edward Carpenter published the following in Astrosophie http://www.geocities.com/astrologyages/edwardcarpenteraquarius.htm

Edward Carpenter and the Age of Aquarius Definition: Astrological Ages Looking for the first mention of the Age of Aquarius is rather like opening a series of Russian dolls... one reference leads to another. The work of Paul Le Cour , and later Jung , seems to rest in turn on work in the 1920s by the English author Edward Carpenter [1844 -1929 AD], now better known for his openly gay life style [unusual at the time], than for his works on astrology. [And in turn Carpenter's work seems to rest on that of another Englishman, Gerald Massey In 1929 Edward Carpenter published the following in Astrosophie In 1936, the Sun will enter the constellation of Aquarius, the sign of electricity, the air, ether and in religion, of the supernatural beings, the spirits, the phantoms; many people think of seeing in this moment, in the material discoveries like the etheric waves of T S. F ( = radio) and in psychic and spiritistic research of our time the beginning of the new sign on the Equinox of Spring By considering that the sign of the Fishes comes at once after the Bull and the Ram in the succession of the signs of the zodiac at the Spring Equinox and that it is currently the constellation in which the Sun is held at that time of the year, it does not seem impossible that the astronomical change was the determining cause of the adoption of this new symbol.

Back to People With a History Edward Carpenter: The Intermediate Sex: A Study of Some Transitional Types of Men and Women FULL NAME: Edward Carpenter BORN: 29 August 1844, Brighton DIED: 28 June 1929, Guildford, aged 84 CONTENTS PREFATORY NOTE I INTRODUCTORY II THE INTERMEDIATE SEX III THE HOMOGENIC ATTACHMENT IV AFFECTION IN EDUCATION V THE PLACE OF THE URANIAN IN SOCIETY APPENDIX "There are transitional forms between the metals and non-metals; between chemical combinations and simple mixtures, between animals and plants, between phanerogams and cryptogams, and between mammals and birds. . . . The improbability may henceforth be taken for granted of finding in Nature a sharp cleavage between all that is masculine on the one side and all that is feminine on the other; or that any living being is so simple in this respect that it can be put wholly on one side, or wholly on the other, of the line." O. WEININGER. PREFATORY NOTE THE following papers, now collected in book-form, have been writtenand some of them publishedon various occasions during the last twelve or fourteen years, and in the intervals of other work; and this must be my excuse for occasional repetitions or overlapping of matter, which may be observable among them. I have thought it best, however, to leave them as they stand, as in this way each is more complete in itself. The second essay, which gives its title to the book, has already appeared in my Love's Coming-of-Age " (edition 1906), but is reprinted here as belonging more properly to this volume.

BIOGRAPHIES Last update: August 28 th Edward Carpenter (1844 - 1929) U.K. Reformer, poet, philosopher and Gay Rights pioneer Carpenter came of a naval family, though his father retired early. He became fellow of Trinity Hall, Cambridge and curate to F. D. Maurice. A visit to Italy, "a new enthusiasm for Greek sculpture... and inspiring friendship", turned his thoughts in a different direction. In 1874 he abandoned fellowship and orders and moved north, eventually settling at Millthorpe, near Chesterfield, where he pursued, by precept and example, his own concept of Socialism and communal fellowship. He wrote and lectured in supporto of varied progressive causes and his own lifestyle and revolt against middle-class convention (expressed by sandals, vegetarianism, overt homosexuality, praise of manual labour and the working man) became an important symbol of liberation for many, including E. M. Forster. Of his many writings the best emembered is probably his long poem of very free verses Towards Democracy (published in 4 parts, 1883 - 1902), in which he expresses his millenarian sense of the cosmic consciousness and "spiritual democracy", and of the march of humanity towards "freedom and joy", much influenced by Whitman and the

Sacred Texts LGBT Sacred Sexuality Love's Coming-of-Age by Edward Carpenter Contents Start Reading This short book of essays by Edward Carpenter is a look at gender roles at the start of the 20th century, and his prescient vision of how those roles might evolve. In the past century many of his then-utopian predictions have come to pass, such as rational sexual education, greater equality for women, recognition of a spectrum of sexual identities, widespread acceptance of trial and open relationships, and the amelioration of the stifling nature of traditional marriage. Some of these predictions, inevitably, such as the use of 'Karezza' (extended coitus without ejaculation) for contraception, and a communist society leading to the liberation of women from the drudgery of housework, have fallen flat. One becomes aware of some peculiar facts that don't usually emerge from studies of social history, e.g. , women of a century ago spent a lot of time baking bread and mending clothes. Carpenter occasionally draws on some dubious science, tainted by 19th century prudery and attitudes about women. However, for the most part, he scores some very good points which are still relevant. Carpenter is primarily known as a pioneering writer on gay liberation. While the focus of this work is not primarily on gay issues, Carpenter wrote several other books which dealt with this subject, including

Edward Carpenter fue un pionero socialista y un profeta radical de una nueva era del asociacionismo, en la cual las relaciones fueron transformadas por una nueva conciencia espiritual. La forma en que el vivió su vida, junto con sus escritos literarios y poéticos, fue la esencia de su mensaje ante una sociedad arcaica. Y sin embargo no causo sorpresa que su reputación se diluyera rápidamente después de su muerte, convirtiéndose su figura en grande en la medida de que su ejemplo, su imagen comenzara a crecer a través de los resultados públicos de sus ideas, de sus propuestas y de sus acciones para cambiar las mentalidades. Carpenter a la edad de 13 años Ha sido descrito como poseedor de una extraordinaria combinación de cualidades: mezcla perfecta de carisma con modestia. Sus ideas tuvieron una enorme influencia durante los tempranos años del movimiento socialista en la Gran Bretaña: sin embargo, lo mas intensamente recordado dentro de los movimientos socialistas y cooperativistas fue su eslogan "Alzate Inglaterra", aunque sus escritos sobre la homosexualidad y la exposición abierta de su identidad son los que le hacen un personaje único en la historia reciente. Edward Carpenter nació el 29 de Agosto de 1844 (en el 45 de Brunswick Square) en una confortable situación familiar de clase media. Eran 1o niños en total: seis niñas y cuatro chicos. Pero en su adolescencia, Edward era el único chico entre las seis niñas de la casa, dado que la familia paso un año desplazada en Versalles en 1857 y los otros muchachos ya mas crecidos, tuvieron que incorporarse a las fuerzas armadas.

VILLAGE OF ILION CEMETERY Part 5 Town of German Flatts Herkimer County, NY The list of the large Village of Ilion Cemetery on Benedict Avenue, in the Town of German Flatts, was donated to us by Susan Perkins of the Herkimer County Historical Society. At the time the reading was taken, the readers were able to discern 3,251 unique stones or named vaults! Names were not written down in any alphabetical order but in the order in which they started reading the stones. Since early Mohawk Valley surnames, as well as those of later 19th century immigrants, are well-represented in this cemetery, we expect many visitors to this site to find a family member. If you do, or know the relationships of people who rest here, we'd appreciate it if you'd give something back to this site by sending the site coordinators info about who you find on this list. Your information will also be posted on line in a footnotes section. If you find someone and don't have further information, a search can be ordered from the Herkimer County Historical Society.

Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Olive Schreiner (1855-1920) South African novelist, whose most famous novel is The Story of an African Farm (1883). Olive Schreiner was a central figure in the development of modern Anglophone literature in Southern Africa. She was a radical liberal and pacifist, she opposed racism, and struggled for women's rights. One of her brothers, William Phillip Schreiner, became prime minister of the Cape Colony. "I have no conscience, none," she added; "but I would not like to bring a soul into this world. When it sinned and when it suffered something like a dead hand would fall on me'You did it, you, for your own pleasure you created this thing! See your work!' If it lived to be eighty it would always hang like a millstone round my neck, have the right to demand good from me, and curse me for its sorrow. A parent is only like to God - if his work turns out bad, so much the worse for him; he dare not wash his hands of it. Time and years can never bring the day when you can say to your child: 'Soul, what have I to do with you?'" (from The Story of an African Farm Olive Emilie Albertina Schreiner was born in Wittebergen (now Lesotho), the sixth of 12 children of Gottlob Schreiner, a Methodist missionary of German descent, and Rebecca Lyndall, the daughter of a London Congregational minister. Her parents were sent to South Africa by the London Missionary Society. In 1854 they settled at the Wittenberg missionary station. Schreiner grew up in the remote mission stations of Cape Colony, where she was educated by her mother. In 1861, the family moved to Healdtown, where Gottlob Schreiner became head of the Wesleyan Native Industrial Training Institution. He was dismissed four years later, and the family moved to Balfour. There he tried his luck as a general dealer, but his business failed.
