The year and a half that followed Müller's departure from the Tronchin family was determined by his friendship and his life with the young American Francis Kinloch. The then twenty-year-old youth came from a family that emigrated from Scotland to North America during the Stuart reign and was wealthy in Charlestown in Carolina, where Francis' mother and siblings still lived. On the advice of his guardian, the former English governor of Carolina, Thomas Boone, who later became director of the Customhouse in London, he went to Europe at the age of 13 to receive his education there and one day in England to be able to enter government service. For a year and a half he had been living in Geneva, where he soon became popular with everyone through his eager pursuit of perfection, his modesty and amiability. The news that was just then reaching Europe by sea of the beginning of unrest in the English colonies of North America aroused increased interest in Geneva for the Son of the West. Müller got to know him in Bonnet's hospitable house, and the noble couple at Genthod were heartily pleased that the two young men had bonded so quickly and intimately with each other. They were soon treated like sons of the house - "good day, my children, love your parents of Genthod as they love you," wrote Madame Bonnet to them. By the end of 1774, they were already meeting four or five times a week to read together. Tacitus, Montesquieu and Pope initially occupied them. Müller attached particular importance to this acquaintance because he was able to practice the English language. Kinloch undertook real speaking exercises with him. Müller praised his new friend's fiery, sharp mind, his extraordinary curiosity, his natural and engaging politeness that endeared him to men and women. "He is the noblest, kindest and most virtuous youth; even his faults are amiable". Kinloch had explained to him that it would take at least years of observation before he would call an acquaintance a friend; but after a short time he addressed his letters to Müller, "to the beloved of my heart".

From Johannes von Müller, 1752-1809, Volume 1 by Karl Henking

The original text was in German/French and was translated with Google Translate.

Die auf den Austritt Müllers aus dem Hause Tronchin folgenden anderthalb Jahre sind bestimmt durch seine Freundschaft und sein Zusammenleben mit dem jungen Amerikaner Francis Kinloch. Der damals zwanzigjährige Jüngling entstammte einer zur Zeit der Stuartschen Herrschaft aus Schottland nach Nordamerika ausgewanderten Familie, die in Charlestown in Carolina, wo noch die Mutter und Geschwister von Francis lebten, reich begütert war. Er selbst hatte sich auf den Rat seines Vormundes, des früheren englischen Gouverneurs von Carolina, Thomas Boone, der später Direktor des Customhouse in London wurde, schon im Alter von 13 Jahren nach Europa begeben, um dort seine Ausbildung zu erhalten und dereinst in den englischen Staatsdienst eintreten zu können; seit anderthalb Jahren lebte er in Genf, wo er durch sein eifriges Streben nach Vervollkommnung, durch seine Bescheidenheit und Liebenswürdigkeit sich bald allgemein beliebt gemacht hatte; die gerade damals über das Meer nach Europa gelangenden Nachrichten von den beginnenden Unruhen in den englischen Kolonien Nordamerikas erweckten in Genf für den Sohn des Westens ein erhöhtes Interesse. Müller lernte ihn im gastlichen Hause Bonnets kennen, und das edle Ehepaar zu Genthod freute sich herzlich, daß die beiden jungen Männer sich so rasch und innig aneinander schlossen; bald wurden sie wie Söhne des Hauses behandelt -,,bon jour, mes enfans, aimés vos parents de Genthod comme ils vous aiment," schrieb ihnen Madame Bonnet. Schon zu Ende des Jahres 1774 trafen sie sich wöchentlich vier- bis fünfmal zu gemeinsamer Lektüre; Tacitus, Montesquieu und Pope beschäftigten sie zunächst; Müller legte besonderen Wert auf diese Bekanntschaft, weil er sich in der englischen Sprache üben konnte; Kinloch hat regelrechte Sprechübungen mit ihm vorgenommen. Müller rühmt an seinem neuen Freunde den feurigen, scharfsinnigen Geist, die außerordentliche Wißbegier, die natürliche und einnehmende Höflichkeit, die ihn bei Männern und Frauen beliebt mache; er ist der edelste, freundlichste und tugendhafteste Jüngling; selbst seine Fehler sind liebenswürdig". Kinloch hatte ihm zwar erklärt, daß es wenigstens einer jahrelangen Beobachtung brauche, bis er einen Bekannten als Freund bezeichne; aber schon nach kurzer Zeit adressierte er seine Briefe an Müller,,to the beloved of my heart".

Bon anniversaire, Claude Monet! 🎂

Born #OnThisDay in 1840, the preeminent Impressionist painter was renowned for his depictions of architecture, water, and atmosphere. Here, in forceful brushstrokes, Monet conveys the choppy, windswept sea off the Normandy coast. He emphasizes the dramatic, clifftop setting of the abandoned customhouse (now gone, as a result of erosion) by cropping the right edge of the canvas and adopting a striking, elevated vantage point.

Monet made a number of paintings along this coast, working on several of them every day (he had to hire a porter to help him carry them all). Each could take as many as twenty sessions to finish.

You can view this work in-person as part of Monet to Morisot: The Real and Imagined in European Art on the fifth floor.

🎨 Claude Monet (French, 1840-1926). Rising Tide at Pourville (Marée montante à Pourville), 1882. Oil on canvas. Brooklyn Museum, Gift of Mrs. Horace O. Havemeyer, 41.1260 (Photo: Brooklyn Museum)

October 9, 1809 (probably)

8, though I think it must be the 9th of October. Will ask some learned man in the course of the day. Couche at 1/2 p. 11. Rose at 8. Mr. Gogle, of Frankfort, a very pleasant, well-bred young man, lodges on the same floor with us; claims my acquaintance, and is extremely obliging. Sor. at 10 to find out Daily. Got his address. Wrote notes to Dr. Shulzen, to Gibson, and to Damm, inquiring for letters. Verbal answers that they have none. Our landlord is a bookbinder. Gave him all Bentham's small works and "Panoptique"¹ to bind. They had suffered, and were in danger of being abimed.² Yesterday opened your picture. It is in perfect order. Lüning's contrivance had secured it completely from the dust. Since opening it at [Stockholm] I have carried it the whole way (two hundred miles) on my lap. Indeed, Madame, you gènèd³ me not a little. You are now hung up in my room, so that I can talk with you. Poin. de afton.⁴ Walked to the harbour at 4. Met Daily, and also the captain with whom I came from Harwich. He seemed quite alarmed, and looked about, the few minutes I detained him, to make some inquiries, as if he was afraid of being seen. He has probably learned how dangerous, &c. The streets of the lower town full of drunken English sailors. Home at 6. Tea. Lüning came in at 7. His whole time seems to be employed in my concerns. He discovers my wants, and, without saying a word to me, makes them his own business. This afternoon he has procured me a traveling companion; a German gentleman, who speaks the Swedish, going to Copenhagen, and to set off on Tuesday, but will wait a day or two for me if requisite! He (Lüning) has also found Dutch ducats, for which I can exchange the small sum of Swedish paper I have on hand. On our arrival our passports were sent to the police for inspection as the law requires. They were brought back this morning. The bearer demanded 36 sch. each for his trouble. Apropos of passports: On our way from Stockholm at a town a sentinel, rather harsh looking, stopped us and demanded if we had passports. "Yes, sir," says Lüning, and presenting a silver plote⁵ the face of the sentinel relaxed into complacency. He thanked us with earnestness, and wished us a pleasant journey. At another time we were brought to by a customhouse officer. In every town they have a right to search your baggage for contraband goods. L., who is never at a loss, presented a 12 sch. bill, which satisfied the officer that we had nothing unlawful. Nordenshjöld and Damm called this afternoon; but from the gentleman to whom I sent letters not a word. N. and D. something cooler. There is something in the atmosphere which I have not yet discovered, and probably never shall.

1 The "Panoptique" or "Panopticon" was one of Bentham's works, published in 1791, perhaps better known as The Inspection House. It was a plan of making convicts useful. 2 Another hybrid perfect participle made from the French verb abîmer, to ruin. 3 A hybrid verb which we have already met, meaning bothered. 4 Probably for poindre de afton. The evening begins to break. The French might say La nuit commence à poindre, although this word is ordinarily used with reference to the dawn. The reader will mark that it is now October, and the night sets in very early. 5 For Swedish plåt, pronounced plote. A very thin old Swedish coin. One Swedish dictionary says: "Imaginary money nearly of 20 pence English," whatever that may mean.

Map of some important locations in AMC IWTV (no spoilers)

Orientation

Lakeside (towards Lake Pontchartrain) is towards the top of the map; riverside (towards the Mississippi River) is towards the bottom of the map. Upriver (“above”) is to the left; downriver (“below”) is to the right. North is in the top right.

Locations

Vieux Carré / French Quarter: Historic centre of New Orleans. Limits at Rampart, Canal, the river, Esplanade. Unmarked.

1132 Royal Street: The Gallier House, an eclectic 1857 townhouse (now a museum operated by Tulane University) that Lestat, Louis, and Claudia live in. Marked in red.

Jackson Square: The park by St Louis Cathedral where Louis and the gang like to sit on that one bench. Marked in lavender.

French Opera House: Foremost opera house in NO until it burned down in 1919. Uptown lakeside corner of Toulouse and Bourbon. Marked in magenta.

Fauborg Tremé: Prominent then-middle-class integrated neighbourhood lakeside of the Vieux Carré (French Quarter). From the 1840s on it was mostly populated by free, mixed-race Creoles. Limits at Canal, Rampart, and Esplanade; continues north above the map. Outlined in green.

St Augustine Church: The first Catholic church in the US built to serve a predominantly POC (though ultimately integrated) congregation, founded for the free Creole population of Tremé in 1842. (Fun fact: the fairly wealthy free mixed-race population got together and bought pews on either side of the aisles for Catholic slaves to sit in.) Uptown lakeside corner of St Claude (now Henriette Delille) and Hospital (now Governor Nicholls). Marked in orange.

De Pointe du Lac family home: Probably near the church, riverside of Marais. The house itself is the Derbès mansion, which is a fair bit further north, but Louis says they live about half a mile away from him and Lestat, which places them around the 3rd precinct of the 6th Ward. (Fun fact: this is also where Homer Plessy lived in the 1890s). Unmarked.

St Louis Cemetery: Where the de Pointe du Lac family tomb is. The family has been in the city long enough that they’re probably buried in the old cemetery on Basin and St Louis. (My headcanon is that the Louis of the books, born in the 1760s, is AMC Louis’ great-great-grandfather, probably by Yvette, in a different timeline where Lestat futzes about in Europe for 150 years longer.) Unmarked, but labelled.

Saenger Theatre: Popular cinema and stage theatre built in 1927 (it’s also where the opera scenes in episode 2 were filmed, though they were set at the French Opera House). Downtown lakeside corner of Rampart and Canal. Marked in cyan.

Storyville: NO’s red-light district from 1897 to 1917. Limits at Robertson, Customhouse (now Iberville), Basin, St Louis. Outlined in a yellow box.

Frontages on Liberty Street: Where most of Louis’s Storyville businesses are. Marked in blue.

Frontages on Basin Street: Where the most profitable Storyville businesses are. (The most profitable block is labelled 124 here. Thomas Anderson owned the saloon on the corner of Basin and Customhouse; Lulu White, a mixed-race madam who should have been in the show, owned the brothel on the corner of Basin and Bienville.) Marked in red.

Azalea Hall: 202 Villere Street (if I’m not mistaken). Approximate location marked in violet.

Black Storyville: Segregated Colored red-light district that would have been created by Ordinance 4118 in March 1917. Limits at Robertson, Cleveland, Liberty, Canal. Outlined in a red box.

Ward boundaries: They don’t come up in the show, but they’re a fairly important part of NO culturally and geographically, so I’ve included them.

3rd Ward: Predominantly Anglo and White. Now the central business district. Upriver of Canal Street.

4th Ward: Upper part of French Quarter. Limits at Canal and St Louis.

5th Ward: Central part of French Quarter. Limits at St Louis and St Philippe.

6th Ward: Lower part of French Quarter. Limits at St Philippe and Esplanade.

7th Ward: Predominantly Anglo and Black. Downriver of Esplanade.

If anyone is interested to know where anything else is (or might be) or has any corrections, please let me know!

If you need floor plans or anything for Louis and Lestat’s townhouse, the Gallier house is extensively documented. I’ve included the floor plans below (the approximate location of the incinerator is marked in red; toilets are on the other side of that gate in the privy), but much more can be found here.

#i speak #amc iwtv #iwtv #if you happen to be writing a fic where lestat goes into politics #like i may or may not be doing #1st precinct of 6th Ward is riverside of Bourbon #2nd precinct is riverside of Rampart #3rd precinct is riverside of Marais #4th precinct is riverside of Claiborne

In Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress adopts the Declaration of Independence, which proclaims the independence of the United States of America from Great Britain and its king.

The declaration came 442 days after the first volleys of the American Revolution were fired at Lexington and Concord in Massachusetts and marked an ideological expansion of the conflict that would eventually encourage France’s intervention on behalf of the Patriots.

The first major American opposition to British policy came in 1765 after Parliament passed the Stamp Act, a taxation measure to raise revenues for a standing British army in America. Under the banner of “no taxation without representation,” colonists convened the Stamp Act Congress in October 1765 to vocalize their opposition to the tax.

With its enactment in November, most colonists called for a boycott of British goods, and some organized attacks on the customhouses and homes of tax collectors. After months of protest in the colonies, Parliament voted to repeal the Stamp Act in March 1766.

Why did the American Colonies declare independence?

Most colonists continued to quietly accept British rule until Parliament’s enactment of the Tea Act in 1773, a bill designed to save the faltering East India Company by greatly lowering its tea tax and granting it a monopoly on the American tea trade.

The low tax allowed the East India Company to undercut even tea smuggled into America by Dutch traders, and many colonists viewed the act as another example of taxation tyranny. In response, militant Patriots in Massachusetts organized the “Boston Tea Party,” which saw British tea valued at some 18,000 pounds dumped into Boston Harbor.

The British Parliament, outraged by the Boston Tea Party and other blatant acts of destruction of British property, enacted the Coercive Acts, also known as the Intolerable Acts, in 1774. The Coercive Acts closed Boston to merchant shipping, established formal British military rule in Massachusetts, made British officials immune to criminal prosecution in America, and required colonists to quarter British troops.

The colonists subsequently called the first Continental Congress to consider a united American resistance to the British.

With the other colonies watching intently, Massachusetts led the resistance to the British, forming a shadow revolutionary government and establishing militias to resist the increasing British military presence across the colony.

In April 1775, Thomas Gage, the British governor of Massachusetts, ordered British troops to march to Concord, Massachusetts, where a Patriot arsenal was known to be located. On April 19, 1775, the British regulars encountered a group of American militiamen at Lexington, and the first shots of the American Revolution were fired.

Initially, both the Americans and the British saw the conflict as a kind of civil war within the British Empire: To King George III it was a colonial rebellion, and to the Americans it was a struggle for their rights as British citizens.

However, Parliament remained unwilling to negotiate with the American rebels and instead purchased German mercenaries to help the British army crush the rebellion. In response to Britain’s continued opposition to reform, the Continental Congress began to pass measures abolishing British authority in the colonies.

How did the American Colonies declare independence?

In January 1776, Thomas Paine published “Common Sense,” an influential political pamphlet that convincingly argued for American independence and sold more than 500,000 copies in a few months. In the spring of 1776, support for independence swept the colonies, the Continental Congress called for states to form their own governments, and a five-man committee was assigned to draft a declaration.

The Declaration of Independence was largely the work of Virginian Thomas Jefferson. In justifying American independence, Jefferson drew generously from the political philosophy of John Locke, an advocate of natural rights, and from the work of other English theorists.

The first section features the famous lines, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” The second part presents a long list of grievances that provided the rationale for rebellion.

When did American colonies declare independence?

On July 2, 1776, the Continental Congress voted to approve a Virginia motion calling for separation from Britain. The dramatic words of this resolution were added to the closing of the Declaration of Independence. Two days later, on July 4, the declaration was formally adopted by 12 colonies after minor revision. New York approved it on July 19. On August 2, the declaration was signed.

The Revolutionary War would last for five more years. Yet to come were the Patriot triumphs at Saratoga, the bitter winter at Valley Forge, the intervention of the French, and the final victory at Yorktown in 1781. In 1783, with the signing of the Treaty of Paris with Britain, the United States formally became a free and independent nation.
