What it does show us, though, is that short-term memory is limited and prone to interruption. And, as a result, we forget things. I have tried very hard to make this a narrative history which is understandable to, and interesting for, anyone with no previous knowledge of morris dancing. My wife was very helpful in this – as a non-dancer she read through several drafts and pointed out where I needed to explain things better to a lay readership. I have also tried to convey not just what was done, but what people – both practitioners and audience – thought about it, so it is as much a history of the ideas as it is about the practice. In America , Netflix Animation and Warner Bros. Discovery saw more layoffs this week — roughly 30 people at Netflix, around 100 people in Warner’s ad sales divisions and an unspecified number on Warner’s film Bye Bye Bunny .

For years, she didn’t try it. “I was afraid to film it for a long time,” she recalled . This was a character without a face, or hands, or limbs of any kind. She hadn’t done anything quite like it. Although it has been strongly infiltrated by Hindu thought and custom, Sikhism remains a mono-theistic faith. Idol worship is forbidden and no rivers, mountains, or places are held to be sacred. Yet Sikhism accepts the Hindu theory of the transmigration of the soul, holding, however, that the human form of life is the highest and that it is human actions which determine whether one will attain salvation by the fusion of one’s light with the light of God.If I had written the book when I first intended to, nearly 30 years ago, it would have been much more focused on Cotswold morris, and would have been much the poorer for it. Because Sharp found and then pursued the Cotswold dances, the story of the revival has been seen very much through a Cotswold lens for most of the 20th century. I was trying not to be influenced by my prejudices, and took the view (very much as John Forrest and I had done in Annals) that the criterion by which to judge whether something counted as ‘morris’ and should be included was what people at the time called it. If it was called ‘morris’, then it was ‘morris’ (with one or two caveats). That led me into lots of new areas. David Scott Katsan (2006). The Oxford Encyclopedia of British Literature, Volume 1. Oxford University Press. p.141. ISBN 9780195169218. And there may be more turmoil coming for American animation — the talk in Hollywood is that Warner Bros. Discovery could sell to Comcast in a few years, according to The Hollywood Reporter .

The Three-point Fold is first folded into a triangle, then the corners are folded up and across to make three points. General Lafayette was greeted on a visit to Providence, R.I., by "nearly 200 Misses, arrayed in white", who strewed flowers in his path "at the same time waving their white handkerchiefs". "Lafayette In America". Times [London, England] 16 October 1824, p.2. Using scrap paper. As soon as we have a piece of scrap paper, we have a way of expanding our memory, by writing things down. I began to look at the early records and then found out that John Forrest in the USA was doing the same. We agreed to collaborate and that produced our Annals of Early Morris listing of early morris-dance references in 1991, and a joint article discussing the material. Annals was comprehensive enough to give us a much fuller perspective on the early history, instead of the fragmentary and only half-understood sources available before then. We set our cut-off date at 1750, partly, from my perspective at least, on the presumption that after that morris was much closer to what we see today. I was wrong!
