THE OPEN WINDOW by Hector Hugh Munro "Saki" Saki was the pen-name of Hector Hugh Munro (1870-1916) a British political journalist who worked in Russia and France. He published several volumes of short stories which show an understanding of children and of young people who play cleverly and sometimes maliciously on the feelings of their elders. For Graham Greene, Munro was the best English humourist of the twentieth century. Munro's mother died when he was born, so he was sent to England to be brought up by two maiden old aunts who turned his life into a real misery. Greene states that this unhappy childhood is the key to the cruelty in almost all his short stories. This is the case of THE OPEN WINDOW... The Open Window La Ventana Abierta 'My aunt will be down presently, Mr. Nuttel,' said a very self-possessed young lady of fifteen; 'in the meantime you must try and put up with me.' Framton Nuttel tried to say a few words which should flatter both the niece of the moment and the aunt that was to come. Privately he doubted more than ever whether these formal visits on a number of total strangers would do much towards helping the nerve cure which he was to undergo.

Hector Hugh Munro, more commonly known as Saki,was born in Akyab,Burma, where his father was a police officer. At that time Burma like India was under British rule and Munro was therefore a British citizen. Munro's father though probably felt England was a better place to bring up his three children than Burma and so he left his children in the care of his mother and two sisters in Devon, England. The children were quite sickly and so were taught at home through much of their childhoods. After completing his schooling Munro returned to Burma where his father had arranged for a job for him in the military police. He fell ill with malaria a little after a year in Burma and had to return home to England.

The Open Window BY SAKI (H. H. Munro) (1870-1916) "My aunt will be down presently, Mr. Nuttel," said a very self-possessed young lady of fifteen; "in the meantime you must try and put up with me." Framton Nuttel endeavored to say the correct something which should duly Hatter the niece of the moment without unduly discounting the aunt that was to come. Privately he doubted more than ever whether these formal visits on a succession of total strangers would do much towards helping the nerve cure which he was supposed to be undergoing "I know how it will be," his sister had said when he was preparing to migrate to this rural retreat; "you will bury yourself down there and not speak to a living soul, and your nerves will be worse than ever from moping. I shall just give you letters of introduction to all the people I know there. Some of them, as far as I can remember, were quite nice." Framton wondered whether Mrs. Sappleton, the lady to whom he was presenting one of the letters of introduction came into the nice division. "Do you know many of the people round here?" asked the niece, when she judged that they had had sufficient silent communion.

Modernism/modernity Volume 11, Number 4, November 2004 C ONTENTS Essays Nieland, Justus. Marsden Hartley's Light Figures [Access article in HTML] [Access article in PDF] Subjects: Hartley, Marsden, 1877-1943 Criticism and interpretation. Abstract: This essay argues that Marsden Hartley's sentimental fondness for the acrobat's "light figure" is an attempt to imagine a form of public intimacy that flickers between social attachment and detachment, emotive personalism and spectacular disembodiment. I trace this figure from its emergence in Hartley's famous War Motif paintings, through its mediating role in the competing aesthetic discourses of New York dada and the Stieglitz circle, to its final articulation in Hartley's unpublished manuscript on the circus, Elephants and Rhinestones . Hartley's sentimental iconophilia, I argue, departs from a dominant modernist gambit linking vision, authenticity, and privatized interiority. Rather than penetrating, his erotic vision disperses; rather than implicating the spectator, it finds no subject, only a fleeting attachment that Hartley secures by losing himself in the affective circuitry of a mediated public sphere. Will, Barbara.

Saki (o Hector Hugh Munro) di Florence Noiville Hector Hugh Munro, Saki, trascina il lettore alle sorgenti dello humor britannico. Nato in Birmania nel 1870, giornalista, corrispondente a Mosca e a Parigi, frequenta i salotti di Londra dove trova la materia per i suoi racconti brevi. Muore nel 1916, in Francia, vittima di una granata. Alcuni, come Goethe, muoiono reclamando più luce ("Mehr Licht!"). Meno enigmatica, l'ultima parola di Saki sarebbe stata: "Spegni questa sigaretta, nel nome di Dio!" Come se la vita non tenesse che un vecchio mozzicone rosseggiante alla fine di una fangosa trincea. Era il 13 novembre 1916. Egli stava per compiere 46 anni. Ecco la leggenda. Per il resto, i dizionari biografici sono poco locquaci nei riguardi di costui, tuttavia, incarna "la quintessenza dello humor inglese", cioè a dire qualcosa di tanto soave quanto crudele, perfettamente indefinibile. anni di vita, Saki si impegna, come suo padre, nella polizia coloniale, prima di buttarsi completamente nel giornalismo. Un tempo corrispondente del Morning Post nei Balcani, in Russia e a Parigi, egli frequenta subito i salotti londinesi che gli forniscono la materia sognata per le sue scenette e i suoi schizzi.
