can we echo louder than butterflies, louder than mistakes, and death, and shadows?

anon suggested sleep alone by waterparks!!

My face feels hot and blue
My hands still count on you to let me down
Articulate and lonely enough for the two of us
But if you want, if you want, if you want to
You can call me on my phone, I’ll run to you
You won’t ever have to sleep alone

mod note: it has occured to me that when i first started making stimboards i was in middle school and i’m almost through with junior year now yes i am three years old /nsrs anyway i’m not sure what drove me to use this colour scheme, or even these gifs, it just felt right. i hope you like it!!! sorry for the wait!!! like geez this ask is from november. i really forgot about this blog. sorry guys!!!

The Death’s Head Hawkmoth & 19th- century literatureIt’s time for a little entomology in Wilson

The Death’s Head Hawkmoth & 19th- century literature

It’s time for a little entomology in Wilson Library Special Collections!  Today’s bug is the beautiful but bleak death’s head hawkmoth.  Though there are three species of moths grouped under this moniker (Acherontia Atropos,Acherontia lachesis, and Acherontia styx)all three of them share the same signature skull-shaped markings.

This peculiar patterning makes the death’s head hawkmoth a particular favorite of writers and filmmakers.  Although you might remember this moth most vividly from The Silence of the Lambs, the death’s head hawkmoth can actually trace its pop culture roots all the way back to the 19th century!  Because of the spooky pattern that adorns its back, the 19th-century was particularly obsessed with all things Acherontia.  You can spot references to this macabre moth in the pages of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Poe’s “The Sphinx”, and in this beautifully illustrated copy of A true relation of the apparition of Mrs. Veal ( 1883, located in Wilson Library Special Collections).  

If you want to try your hand at finding the references to the death’s head hawkmoth in these works, you’re in luck!  Wilson Library has copies of all three chilling tales in their special collections! So come visit if you want to learn more about these little lepidopterans!
