Walt Whitman Poem

Leaf (a recto) faces a blank leaf
Leaf is followed by 21 blank leaves
and the blank back endpaper

Leaf mounted with seven
holograph manuscripts
written on seven scraps of paper

The woman that sells candies
and apples; the “red liquid
heart of the earth”
 
Signal bell
things not in the gorilla
and the chimpanzee

One good of knowing
the great politics of nature
I admire a beautiful woman
 
All moves
unwittingly
or halts and stands.

Letter written by Emma Hauck to her husband while in a psychiatric hospital. The words ‘sweetheart come’ (‘Herzensschatzi komm’), are written over and over filling the surface of the paper. Circa 1909.

Barbara Suckfüll (born 1857) Sammlung Prinzhorn

Barbara Suckfüll wird diktiert von Stimmen, Telefonstimmen, die ihr Befehle erteilen zu schreien, zu fluchen, zu laufen und eben auch zu schreiben und zu zeichnen. Sie skizziert ihr Essgeschirr, konturiert ihren Tisch aufs Blatt und füllt dann mit Akribie die verbleibende Fläche mit Worten.
