That’s not true. People experience problems in life when they don’t know how to live problem free, and often it’s because they’re too busy blaming their childhoods, or their parents who didn’t love them, which is true for more than 99% of people on the planet because most people don’t even know what love is.
Fascinating. You read very well and the details are well-researched. I've read references to Nancy Cunard in Evelyn Waugh's diaries and I also read Aldous Huxley's novels which probably concerned her sometimes. I've never read Arlen's the Green Hat but will seek it out. Her life shows that getting proper affection and support as a child is more important than money. Thank you.
I have never hard about this woman, but of course I am familiar with the last name. It was terribly sad what her mother said about having children, the way Nancy was treated and horrible just horrible her nanny. Right there was the root of her problem life. I felt very sad for her. She was no beauty but she had what many want; money. Reminds me of Doris Duke. She spent her life looking for what money cannot buy; love. There seemed to be genuine love with the gentleman Henry, but then again she was not loyal to him. This world has a lot of lost "souls" Nancy Cunard was one of them.
Huguette and her story are so interesting I have been working on her story off and on for awhile. It's a hard script as I want to do her story justice. Have you read 'Empty Mansions' . I highly recommend the audio book as you can hear her voice calling her nephew. What an amazing story. I will absolutely have her video by September as I think it's one of the most interesting stories I have read and so astonishing so few people have heard of her. Thank you )
I also thought of David Bowie when I saw pictures of Nancy. I cant believe I've never heard of her. Then again i may have unaware of who was being talked about.
I don't know why this video is demonetized. It seems a straight forward, well researched topic about a very complex woman. Thank you for your efforts, and may I say, well done.
I love your story telling of lives that I know very little about. Please continue to bring these fascinating stories to us so that we can understand the torment of their lives as they tried to make a difference in the world. While some of the stories are unrelatable to my life however, I find them interesting nonetheless. I am sorry RUclips has not seen the value of your creative content.
Nancy Cunard deserves credit for exploring personal development, social evolution and civil rights. She may have lacked the guidance, both emotional and intellectual, that would have allowed her greater maturity in her own explorations.
There's something magical of these human transitions through an extraordinary era of the first half of the 20th century. The explosion of ideas, style and conflict modelled personalities like Nancy. Fascinating.
She had a wonderful intellect. Even when she was a young student it was noted her intellectual attainments were outstanding. Unfortunately her mother had no time for her as she was just a social butterfly. Instead of being a " bright young thing" Nancy embraced poetry and was a fashion icon. She was daring, unconventional and brave especially having a African American male lover in her milieu! Fiercly independant, life and people shot her down and she took to drugs and alcohol to ease her pain. I love Nancy!!🎉😂😂😂
Great comment. She was indeed a very bright young girl, but her mother only wanted her to make a good match. However her mother's social circle was full of writers some of whom had a great influence on Nancy. I even like some of her poetry and feel that pound was rather harsh on her.
What an enigmatic woman. So fascinating and what a shame such a mind of hers wasn’t born in the 21st century. What a mind we would celebrate. Thank you for this! Wonderful story telling
I absolutely agree, she was so intelligent but at the time there were so few outlets for women with her creative ability I want to do a video on Tamara Lipnicki at some point, and while she isn't Nancy Cunard she ran into many of the same problems, as did Zelda Sayre. All of that generation, who led similar lives and found it hard to get their creative work noticed. The women of that period interest me greatly but Nancy was a true original.
A woman who rebelled against high society, yet her life was funded by her family’s $. Would have sympathy for her if she rejected family’s $ & earned her own.
She tried, but her poetry never gained popularity nor did her publishing house which was funded by her father. Her deep hatred for her mother existed all her life. When she was 17 her and her friends were playing a parlour game and the question was. "Who would you like to see enter the room?" Nancy's response was "her ladyship ...dead" Her ladyship was how she referred to her mother
Such a wonderful channel it’s a shame that RUclips are restricting you as you have such great content and deliver your stories very well with great insight ! If possible, would you be able to do a story on her mother as I did read a bit about her in the book “ Queen Bees “
Thanks for the comment, I will put her on my list. I usually write videos a few months ahead of time, as I need to read up and research. So Please give me a few months and we will get to her :)
Recently l purchased a bulky necklace (that looks like a work of art) and a big, matching bracelet. I hoped it was not too much. Now l feel vindicated. I am no Nancy Cunard. I bought my set on line for a very modest price.
Thank you so much for this wonderful bio. A lifetime of alcohol abuse muddled her brain. Nancy longed for men to love her, but she was unable to love them back, and that goes directly to her parent's poor parenting. Alcoholics aren't emotionally available or stable. So sad for her but she kept trying. Most of us can't recover from our childhoods.
There were a lot of 1920 Flapper free-style jazz era debutantes that flouted social Victorian norms and embraced the fast paced lifestyles of the bourgeoise. Beautiful slim women that would cut their tresses, and throw off their corsets and long dresses to adorn the silky fashions cut off below the knees. The pinched Cloche Hats, long cigarettes, bobbed hair, red lipsticks and rouge replaced the sausage curls and ringlets, broad feathered hats, long dresses with yards of lace. It was the era of champagne and gin, and all night jazz, open -air night drives on windy roads, and making out in the back of cars. Fun and freedom and living it up was the motto. Behind all that fun were the societal norms of their parents generation that still existed and shadowed their daily lives. Rich girls were suppose to behave. Attend boarding schools, get married to industrial elites, or even better the aristocracy of Europe, and carry on the family name and fortune. These women were pioneers of their generation. Never before in the history of womanhood, had young ladies been able to stretch their wings and challenge societal boundaries. Most would not survive these indulgences without getting burned or worse in the press of the day.
Easy to live a life of rebellion and social justice when you don’t have to work for a living….most people are busy surviving and helping their children thrive….

Sad❤ But she lived as she desire … with all complexity of life! Strong educated woman , unique, smart , and creative ! Sadly for her pure love was absent from the beginning of her life . That proves again that money ( although does help ) is not entirely the vehicle to a personal fulfilments and happiness!🌹🌹🌹 Very Sad ❤
This is more of an intellectual child grew up in horrible mental abuse and a suffocating social environment that damaged her whole life. It is true that she got so documentated because of her finacially priviledged back ground, and a woman of another class would probably end up a forgotten "crazy woman" locked away and tossed into a corner. Money indeed could buy a lot of things to secure the coping, but would never be enough to be turn a tragic life like this around. Nowadays many rich kids could just grab some bucks and become a hippy or equal rights advocator or whatever. Back then it was all about being "nobel".It was not a time where rich kids got recognition for wokeness but where a person who wrote a book on racism disgusted the whole social circle. She did not have the mental capacity to hold relationship with the ones she really had love with. Many relationships bought with money and status were "muse" owning behaviors. We call it objectifying and romanticizing painfulness nowdays, which was not a thing back then. It was a glamourized idea to be a "muse"(and still is). Money couldn't buy modern therapy, subtance use treatment, eating disorder treatment, PTSD treatment, and more safety protection from rightwing terrorists. Any one of them could drive a person mad, let alone a sensitive traumatized person to begin with. In fact even those aid being extremely advanced comparing to her era, fail to "save" or "fix" many people now. To be happy born rich, it's easier to people getting fullfillment through gaining money,sex and status. Truly sensitive people are mentallly bad at fully utilizinng the given resource and are pron to getting chewed up by identity crisis and guilt, despite that they may easily have the skills and appear having achievements.
You make a good point, but the young wealthy have so many options nowadays, at that time girls were simply expected to be wives, and had little voice in society.
Nancy was one of those people who just could not allow herself to be happy. Whenever she built something, she tore it down. Despite that tendency l think she certainly did do some good along the way. My sympathy, in equal measure, goes to the people she "loved" and/or hated.
The photo in your thumbnail is Renee Perle a french Romanian model who worked with Lartigue a famous photographer, she would make a good subject for you. Cheers from England
I just commented about that being Renee, then scrolled down and saw your comment. Glad to see someone else spotted that. I often wonder what happened to Renee after Lartigue dumped her. She just faded into obscurity...
@@carolannemckenzie3849 hi cool thanks, I have had her photo on my mantelpiece for 15 years, my gfs don't seem to mind! She was so stylish exotic but still mysterious, there are some good documentaries on Lartigue which feature her and a charming Romanian AI animation. Cheers from England
Just discovered your channel two days ago and have found these bios to be quite fascinating. I am struck, though, by just how often women were institutionalized into “sanitariums” in that era. I just watched this and the Zelda Fitzgerald story, and then added them to my previous knowledge of Cary Grant’s mother and Marilyn Monroe’s mother…. That’s already quite a list. One doesn’t hear about such things now, or even the existence of sanitariums, and I wonder what is the difference. And why women? Was it cultural? Were there environmental factors- chemical exposures or medicinal issues? I can’t suspect that we just have better mental health provisions now, as it seems that we just don’t need them at the acute, pathological level. Anyway, my god, both she and Zelda led such intense lives, and I imagine it’s difficult to come through so much unscathed and unscarred. Those who feel the most and sense the most deeply probably have the most vulnerability.
Thanks for joining and the comment. Interesting what you say as the video I am posting on Wednesday is called 'The Princess in the Asylum' About a Belgian Princess who was locked up because she was cheating on her husband. But yes, in a lot of my videos this will be an issue; as husbands would try and get their wives committed so they could get their fortune, or remarry. Women were often diagnosed with "hysteria" or other nervous disorders, which were poorly understood and frequently misattributed to female biology and temperament. Hysteria was a catch-all diagnosis for a range of symptoms including anxiety, depression, fainting, and other behaviors that deviated from societal norms for women. Gender Bias in Medicine: Medical practice at the time was heavily biased against women. Symptoms that would be taken seriously in men were often dismissed as psychological or emotional in women. Conditions like postpartum depression, menopause, and chronic fatigue were misunderstood and mismanaged. And when all else failed, the husband could pay the doctor off. Originally hysterectomies were believed as a way to cure women from Hysteria. Patriarchal Control: Women's roles were highly restricted, and deviation from expected behavior could lead to institutionalization. Men (husbands, fathers) often had the legal authority to commit women to sanatoriums for reasons that included nonconformity, rebelliousness, or perceived disobedience. In addition, I mean what could you really do as a woman, if you didn't conform to society, it meant their was something wrong with you, and your parents or someone else could simply have you locked away. I think Zelda, felt lost; that she had no outlet for her creativity, she was constantly being told she wasn't good enough for Scott, that she was holding him back, that she wasn't a good mother or wife. Nancy, had a much more difficult time, she was creative and original and had she been a man she would have probably been seen as a serious artist. Take the actions men committed in the name of art, Picasso, Dali, so many behaved in odd ways, but it was simply considered normal for men to do it. Anyway, hopefully you will like the video on Wednesday. And in a few weeks, it will be another woman who is placed in an asylum. I had never really thought that some of my videos had that theme, so thanks for pointing it out, and making me consider it.
It’s interesting to see and validate my opinion that: you can be a CRAZY person; bludgeoning your way through life; not on any earnings or personal accomplishments; but have LOT’s ‘o cash to bail you out of trouble. Like an Orange Monkey in 2024!
She seemed to outlive many of the men though dying in 1965. Henry Crowder dying in 1955, Syndney in 1943, etc.. Shame she no longer has a headstone in Cimetière du Père Lachaise.
Nancy Cunard was a remarkable woman, with courage and principle. I read a biography of her once, and I think your video really captured her quality, as well as her life and history. I'm sad to read your video has been demonetized, which it doesn't deserve - I hope RUclips will change its policy; these social media platforms are so annoying and arbitrary in their decisions.
I did not know much about her . She is interesting . I feel that she had a insecure life . And was prone to destruction. Her support for civil right was admirable . A rebel against thd norm . She was a woman of her time and class . That died in poverty .
I love your work and the subjects you choose. But I feel compelled to point out that the first photograph is not Nancy, but the Romanian model of the 1930s Renee Perle. She was the mistress and muse of Jacques Henri Lartigue, the French photographer. They are both fascinating people, perhaps worthy of a closer look by you. Thank you for all your hard work.
For Gladys (which she pronounced in the old style “Glay-dess”) check out her meticulously researched biography “Sphinx” by Hugo Vickers. She died in a sanitarium when she was in her 90’s but Vickers managed many interviews with her. She was an amazing woman!
This is an interesting life, the commentary is articulate and sound and it includes a lot of good footage. Only criticism is the ‘modern’ clips that have been inserted, possibly to fill a gap in available material although this was maybe not the author’s intention!
I do not know anything about this lady,but what a fascinating person she was,and told well, but I am sorry,the music overpowered much of it, and it spoilt it a little
She published 3 volumes of poetry, spent her inheritance on a book arguing against institutional racism, and put herself on the front lines of the Spanish Civil War, yet for some reason men like you always reduce a woman to who she has slept with. Simplistic thinking. It is interesting that some men still think in such an archaic way, judging women by standards that you do not judge men by.
@@JenLev yet she was so “deeply unhappy” slutting around whether you’re a man or woman isn’t a virtue. I love when women get mad at men because they don’t like whores. Who convinced you it was a good quality. Some whore.
Promptly and prompted are two words with distinct meanings and uses, especially in the context of historical events like the sinking of the Lusitania and the U.S. entry into World War I. Here’s an explanation of their differences with examples: Promptly Definition: Promptly is an adverb that means "without delay" or "immediately." It is used to describe actions that happen quickly after a triggering event. Usage in Context: Example Sentence: After the emergency alarm sounded, the fire department responded promptly. Contextual Explanation: In this sentence, "promptly" indicates that the fire department responded quickly and without delay after the alarm was triggered. Prompted Definition: Prompted is the past tense of the verb prompt, which means "to cause or bring about an action or response." It indicates that one event or action led to another. Usage in Context: Example Sentence: The sinking of the Lusitania prompted the U.S. to consider entering World War I. Contextual Explanation: In this sentence, "prompted" means that the sinking of the Lusitania was a significant event that caused or influenced the U.S. to start considering entry into the war. In the Context of the Lusitania and World War I Prompted: The sinking of the Lusitania prompted the U.S. to enter World War I. This means that the event was a crucial factor that influenced the decision-making process of the U.S. government and public opinion towards joining the war. However, it did not immediately result in the U.S. entering the war. Promptly: The U.S. did not enter World War I promptly after the Lusitania was sunk. This means that there was a significant delay between the event and the U.S. actually declaring war on Germany. The sinking happened in 1915, but the U.S. did not enter the war until 1917. Prompted indicates causation or influence: The event of the Lusitania sinking caused or influenced the U.S. decision to eventually join the war. Promptly indicates immediacy: There was no immediate action taken; the U.S. took a couple of years before entering the war. Here is how it 'prompted' The US to enter the war. The sinking of the Lusitania was effectively used as propaganda by the American government to build support for the war against Germany. Emotional Appeal: Propaganda posters and media coverage highlighted the tragedy and human cost of the attack, emphasizing the deaths of innocent civilians, including women and children. This played on the emotions of the public, fostering a sense of outrage and a desire for retribution. Demonizing the Enemy: The incident was used to portray the Germans as brutal and inhumane, violating international norms and attacking non-combatants without warning. This helped to galvanize public support against Germany and build a moral justification for entering the war. Recruitment and War Bonds: The story of the Lusitania was used to encourage young men to enlist in the military and to persuade citizens to buy war bonds. Posters and speeches often referenced the sinking to stir patriotic fervor and support for the war effort. Examples of Propaganda Posters: Many wartime posters featured imagery related to the Lusitania, such as images of drowning women and children, to evoke strong emotional responses and rally support for the war. Newspaper Articles: Newspapers covered the event extensively, often with sensational headlines and graphic descriptions of the attack and its aftermath. This widespread coverage helped to shape public opinion and maintain pressure on the government to act. So the sinking of the Lusitania 'prompted' the US to enter the war through first the actual sinking then as later used in propaganda, I hope this clarifies the difference in meaning between the words. Thank you for your comment, I can see how the words sound similar and you can confuse their meaning, As a linguist and historian I appreciate you allowing me the opportunity to clarify for any others who might be confused by the word.
Thank you-your command of poetic imagery and your broad command of English vocabulary impresses me. Please consider turning down the background music. It can overpower your storytelling.

Good point you look at Doris Duke, Barbara Hutton, Christina Onassis etc. Nancy though did well to avoid those traps, yet she deeply feared commitment, and like the aforementioned never found happiness.
The use of modern stock footage (people arguing, washing dishes, suffering from anxiety) is RIDICULOUS and cheapens an otherwise strong attempt to portray the subject. Please consider getting rid of this unnecessary feature. You don't need it and it impedes your attempt to be taken as a serious filmmaker.

Nancy Cunard deserves credit for exploring personal development, social evolution and civil rights. She may have lacked the guidance, both emotional and intellectual, that would have allowed her greater maturity in her own explorations.
There's something magical of these human transitions through an extraordinary era of the first half of the 20th century. The explosion of ideas, style and conflict modelled personalities like Nancy. Fascinating.
Love her she was as brave as a lion.Loved her style,her sense of justice and her willingness to stand up for her ideals particularly in Spain.
She had a wonderful intellect. Even when she was a young student it was noted her intellectual attainments were outstanding.
Unfortunately her mother had no time for her as she was just a social butterfly.
Instead of being a " bright young thing" Nancy embraced poetry and was a fashion icon.
She was daring, unconventional and brave especially having a African American male lover in her milieu!
Fiercly independant, life and people shot her down and she took to drugs and alcohol to ease her pain.
I love Nancy!!🎉😂😂😂
Great comment. She was indeed a very bright young girl, but her mother only wanted her to make a good match. However her mother's social circle was full of writers some of whom had a great influence on Nancy. I even like some of her poetry and feel that pound was rather harsh on her.
This video and the narration is simply excellent. I subscribed to hear more.
Thank you so much. I am glad to have you with us.
What an enigmatic woman. So fascinating and what a shame such a mind of hers wasn’t born in the 21st century. What a mind we would celebrate. Thank you for this! Wonderful story telling
I absolutely agree, she was so intelligent but at the time there were so few outlets for women with her creative ability I want to do a video on Tamara Lipnicki at some point, and while she isn't Nancy Cunard she ran into many of the same problems, as did Zelda Sayre. All of that generation, who led similar lives and found it hard to get their creative work noticed. The women of that period interest me greatly but Nancy was a true original.
I can’t wait to read her work ❤
She looks much like David Bowie- he looks like her, I should say. Relatives?
I thought I was the only one who thought she looked like David Bowie. Or should I say Bowie looked like her since she was 1st😂
@@PhDrSeuss I'm so glad I'm not alone. Seems obvious to me.✋️
yes, interesting: I was thinking the same.
Your video are fascinating!!! I'm hooked!!! Well done!!!!
Thank you. Glad you liked it.
A woman who rebelled against high society, yet her life was funded by her family’s $. Would have sympathy for her if she rejected family’s $ & earned her own.
She tried, but her poetry never gained popularity nor did her publishing house which was funded by her father. Her deep hatred for her mother existed all her life. When she was 17 her and her friends were playing a parlour game and the question was. "Who would you like to see enter the room?" Nancy's response was "her ladyship ...dead" Her ladyship was how she referred to her mother
They NEVER do....!!
A woman way ahead of her time. RIP Nancy🙏🙏
Very interesting thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Such a wonderful channel it’s a shame that RUclips are restricting you as you have such great content and deliver your stories very well with great insight !
If possible, would you be able to do a story on her mother as I did read a bit about her in the book “ Queen Bees “
Thanks for the comment, I will put her on my list. I usually write videos a few months ahead of time, as I need to read up and research. So Please give me a few months and we will get to her :)
Fascinating. I'm hooked on Nancy now x
her style amazing Loving the Bracelets and Bulky Necklaces
Me too ❤
Recently l purchased a bulky necklace (that looks like a work of art) and a big, matching bracelet. I hoped it was not too much. Now l feel vindicated. I am no Nancy Cunard. I bought my set on line for a very modest price.
Very interesting stories.Thank You
So nice of you
Happy to subscribe. This is a captivating story.
Thanks for joining us here.
What a great video… had never heard about her.. so well done!!!!
Thanks so much:)
Thank you so much for this wonderful bio. A lifetime of alcohol abuse muddled her brain. Nancy longed for men to love her, but she was unable to love them back, and that goes directly to her parent's poor parenting. Alcoholics aren't emotionally available or stable. So sad for her but she kept trying. Most of us can't recover from our childhoods.
Fascinating. Thank you.
I've only heard of her in this video. Great story. Really a great woman. Thx.
Glad you enjoyed it
Excellent presentation. Thank you very much.
Glad you enjoyed it!
She sounds like she had undiagnosed bipolar - there are many signs in just this short summary of her life.
Nicely put together, good video!
Had heard of her but knew very little about Nancy. Really enjoyed your video. Very informative. Thank you. ✨
What an Amazing Woman! Thank You! 👏👏👏
Superb effort. Well done!
Thank you so much 😀
There were a lot of 1920 Flapper free-style jazz era debutantes that flouted social Victorian norms and embraced the fast paced lifestyles of the bourgeoise. Beautiful slim women that would cut their tresses, and throw off their corsets and long dresses to adorn the silky fashions cut off below the knees. The pinched Cloche Hats, long cigarettes, bobbed hair, red lipsticks and rouge replaced the sausage curls and ringlets, broad feathered hats, long dresses with yards of lace. It was the era of champagne and gin, and all night jazz, open -air night drives on windy roads, and making out in the back of cars. Fun and freedom and living it up was the motto. Behind all that fun were the societal norms of their parents generation that still existed and shadowed their daily lives. Rich girls were suppose to behave. Attend boarding schools, get married to industrial elites, or even better the aristocracy of Europe, and carry on the family name and fortune. These women were pioneers of their generation. Never before in the history of womanhood, had young ladies been able to stretch their wings and challenge societal boundaries. Most would not survive these indulgences without getting burned or worse in the press of the day.
Easy to live a life of rebellion and social justice when you don’t have to work for a living….most people are busy surviving and helping their children thrive….
Anyone can live their dream.

Yawn.
Sad❤
But she lived as she desire … with all
complexity of life!
Strong educated woman , unique, smart , and creative !
Sadly for her pure love was absent from the beginning of her life . That proves again that money ( although does help ) is not entirely the vehicle to a personal fulfilments and happiness!🌹🌹🌹
Very Sad ❤
Thank you very much!
Very interesting story
Fantastic
I enjoy your videos. Thank you!
Thank you and Welcome to the channel. Glad to have you.
One of the best dissertations I have ever seen on this forum!
Thank you
Nice work...looking forward to more.
Thank you!
You have a great speaking voice. I loved listening to you. But for the background music, I found the story fascinating!
Thanks for your videos
Thanks a lot for watching and commenting.
You are a excellent storyteller!
Love this channel, am subscribing, thx
Thanks so much for joining us. ❤
Nancy Cunard deserves a biopic. 🌹
Yes . Hopefully one day a streaming service will give her one.
This is more of an intellectual child grew up in horrible mental abuse and a suffocating social environment that damaged her whole life. It is true that she got so documentated because of her finacially priviledged back ground, and a woman of another class would probably end up a forgotten "crazy woman" locked away and tossed into a corner. Money indeed could buy a lot of things to secure the coping, but would never be enough to be turn a tragic life like this around. Nowadays many rich kids could just grab some bucks and become a hippy or equal rights advocator or whatever. Back then it was all about being "nobel".It was not a time where rich kids got recognition for wokeness but where a person who wrote a book on racism disgusted the whole social circle. She did not have the mental capacity to hold relationship with the ones she really had love with. Many relationships bought with money and status were "muse" owning behaviors. We call it objectifying and romanticizing painfulness nowdays, which was not a thing back then. It was a glamourized idea to be a "muse"(and still is). Money couldn't buy modern therapy, subtance use treatment, eating disorder treatment, PTSD treatment, and more safety protection from rightwing terrorists. Any one of them could drive a person mad, let alone a sensitive traumatized person to begin with. In fact even those aid being extremely advanced comparing to her era, fail to "save" or "fix" many people now. To be happy born rich, it's easier to people getting fullfillment through gaining money,sex and status. Truly sensitive people are mentallly bad at fully utilizinng the given resource and are pron to getting chewed up by identity crisis and guilt, despite that they may easily have the skills and appear having achievements.
You make a good point, but the young wealthy have so many options nowadays, at that time girls were simply expected to be wives, and had little voice in society.
Nancy was one of those people who just could not allow herself to be happy. Whenever she built something, she tore it down. Despite that tendency l think she certainly did do some good along the way. My sympathy, in equal measure, goes to the people she "loved" and/or hated.
The photo in your thumbnail is Renee Perle a french Romanian model who worked with Lartigue a famous photographer, she would make a good subject for you. Cheers from England
I just commented about that being Renee, then scrolled down and saw your comment. Glad to see someone else spotted that. I often wonder what happened to Renee after Lartigue dumped her. She just faded into obscurity...
@@carolannemckenzie3849 hi cool thanks, I have had her photo on my mantelpiece for 15 years, my gfs don't seem to mind! She was so stylish exotic but still mysterious, there are some good documentaries on Lartigue which feature her and a charming Romanian AI animation. Cheers from England
Ps think Renee married a wealthy business man had a couple kids and lived in the South of France - so not too bad.
Just discovered your channel two days ago and have found these bios to be quite fascinating. I am struck, though, by just how often women were institutionalized into “sanitariums” in that era. I just watched this and the Zelda Fitzgerald story, and then added them to my previous knowledge of Cary Grant’s mother and Marilyn Monroe’s mother…. That’s already quite a list. One doesn’t hear about such things now, or even the existence of sanitariums, and I wonder what is the difference. And why women? Was it cultural? Were there environmental factors- chemical exposures or medicinal issues? I can’t suspect that we just have better mental health provisions now, as it seems that we just don’t need them at the acute, pathological level. Anyway, my god, both she and Zelda led such intense lives, and I imagine it’s difficult to come through so much unscathed and unscarred. Those who feel the most and sense the most deeply probably have the most vulnerability.
Thanks for joining and the comment. Interesting what you say as the video I am posting on Wednesday is called 'The Princess in the Asylum' About a Belgian Princess who was locked up because she was cheating on her husband. But yes, in a lot of my videos this will be an issue; as husbands would try and get their wives committed so they could get their fortune, or remarry. Women were often diagnosed with "hysteria" or other nervous disorders, which were poorly understood and frequently misattributed to female biology and temperament. Hysteria was a catch-all diagnosis for a range of symptoms including anxiety, depression, fainting, and other behaviors that deviated from societal norms for women.
Gender Bias in Medicine: Medical practice at the time was heavily biased against women. Symptoms that would be taken seriously in men were often dismissed as psychological or emotional in women. Conditions like postpartum depression, menopause, and chronic fatigue were misunderstood and mismanaged. And when all else failed, the husband could pay the doctor off. Originally hysterectomies were believed as a way to cure women from Hysteria.
Patriarchal Control: Women's roles were highly restricted, and deviation from expected behavior could lead to institutionalization. Men (husbands, fathers) often had the legal authority to commit women to sanatoriums for reasons that included nonconformity, rebelliousness, or perceived disobedience.
In addition, I mean what could you really do as a woman, if you didn't conform to society, it meant their was something wrong with you, and your parents or someone else could simply have you locked away. I think Zelda, felt lost; that she had no outlet for her creativity, she was constantly being told she wasn't good enough for Scott, that she was holding him back, that she wasn't a good mother or wife. Nancy, had a much more difficult time, she was creative and original and had she been a man she would have probably been seen as a serious artist. Take the actions men committed in the name of art, Picasso, Dali, so many behaved in odd ways, but it was simply considered normal for men to do it.
Anyway, hopefully you will like the video on Wednesday. And in a few weeks, it will be another woman who is placed in an asylum. I had never really thought that some of my videos had that theme, so thanks for pointing it out, and making me consider it.
Loving your channel ❤❤❤
Thanks again. I'm really glad you like it and have joined.
Somehow I was unsubscribed 😤 glad I ran into one of your vids and found you again. Love your content.
Welcome back!
Such a sad case. She must have been so lonely all her life but really had no one to blame but herself.
Was she bipolar? In those days they did not investigate the possibility.
She is a text book CPTSD.
It’s interesting to see and validate my opinion that: you can be a CRAZY person; bludgeoning your way through life; not on any earnings or personal accomplishments; but have LOT’s ‘o cash to bail you out of trouble. Like an Orange Monkey in 2024!
Great story ❤ new sub here!! Love your content I’ve been binge watching these videos!
Thank, you. Glad you are with us.
Love it as always. Please do Alma Mahler- wife o f Mahler, lover of Klimt, Kokoshka and Walter Gropius. And a composer too.
Before the end of the year.
She seemed to outlive many of the men though dying in 1965. Henry Crowder dying in 1955, Syndney in 1943, etc.. Shame she no longer has a headstone in Cimetière du Père Lachaise.
Nancy Cunard was a remarkable woman, with courage and principle. I read a biography of her once, and I think your video really captured her quality, as well as her life and history. I'm sad to read your video has been demonetized, which it doesn't deserve - I hope RUclips will change its policy; these social media platforms are so annoying and arbitrary in their decisions.
Thank you. ❤❤
I ABSOLUTELY LOOOOOOOOOOOVE YOUR BIOGRAPHIES
Thank you so much.
I did not know much about her . She is interesting . I feel that she had a insecure life . And was prone to destruction. Her support for civil right was admirable . A rebel against thd norm . She was a woman of her time and class . That died in poverty .
I love your work and the subjects you choose. But I feel compelled to point out that the first photograph is not Nancy, but the Romanian model of the 1930s Renee Perle. She was the mistress and muse of Jacques Henri Lartigue, the French photographer. They are both fascinating people, perhaps worthy of a closer look by you. Thank you for all your hard work.
🌞Excellent Some actions of the platform operators defy logic
Had substance. Most disturbed souls do.
Love your channel, new sub. Have you done Anais Nin or Gladys Deacon Duchess of Marlborough yet?
For Gladys (which she pronounced in the old style “Glay-dess”) check out her meticulously researched biography “Sphinx” by Hugo Vickers. She died in a sanitarium when she was in her 90’s but Vickers managed many interviews with her. She was an amazing woman!
More good ideas. Thank you :)
I thought she looked like David Bowie also.
They rail against the establishment, but they don’t sacrifice the money it gives them. They love that money! Hypocrite.
Beautiful and thoughtful soul, she did the best she could.
Awesome story and new sub here! 👍
Your videos are fascinated but please dial the background music back a little, it's very distracting.
How sad😢
I think Cunard Line should merge with Air Lingus. That should make the ladies happy!
Turn the music down.
Please?
yes😣
What is thi smusic / soundtrack please? It'samazing!
It is called 'I am better off' Orchestral Version.
too loud though
This is an interesting life, the commentary is articulate and sound and it includes a lot of good footage. Only criticism is the ‘modern’ clips that have been inserted, possibly to fill a gap in available material although this was maybe not the author’s intention!
I do not know anything about this lady,but what a fascinating person she was,and told well, but I am sorry,the music overpowered much of it, and it spoilt it a little
@@PamelaTitterington Yes music was too loud in these early videos. I was just learning to edit.
She looked a lot like David Bowie!
That was so sad
I love her 😍❤️
A fascinating life, but not a pleasant person.
Amazing woman
No entiendo el vidro
Sounds like a perfect shrew.
I knew the word ''marginalized'' was in there somewhere
"A woman ahead of her time....?" Searching for love in sex is not a virtue.
She published 3 volumes of poetry, spent her inheritance on a book arguing against institutional racism, and put herself on the front lines of the Spanish Civil War, yet for some reason men like you always reduce a woman to who she has slept with. Simplistic thinking. It is interesting that some men still think in such an archaic way, judging women by standards that you do not judge men by.
nor is being wealthy
@@JenLev yet she was so “deeply unhappy” slutting around whether you’re a man or woman isn’t a virtue. I love when women get mad at men because they don’t like whores. Who convinced you it was a good quality. Some whore.
Gawd, there are some tedious prigs and prudes on here. I wonder if I can guess where they are..?
Wow she was born on my birth date, poor thing.
The Lusitania was sunk in 1915. The US didn’t enter WW1 until almost 2 years later. Hardly a prompt reaction.
Promptly and prompted are two words with distinct meanings and uses, especially in the context of historical events like the sinking of the Lusitania and the U.S. entry into World War I. Here’s an explanation of their differences with examples:
Promptly
Definition:
Promptly is an adverb that means "without delay" or "immediately." It is used to describe actions that happen quickly after a triggering event.
Usage in Context:
Example Sentence: After the emergency alarm sounded, the fire department responded promptly.
Contextual Explanation: In this sentence, "promptly" indicates that the fire department responded quickly and without delay after the alarm was triggered.
Prompted
Definition:
Prompted is the past tense of the verb prompt, which means "to cause or bring about an action or response." It indicates that one event or action led to another.
Usage in Context:
Example Sentence: The sinking of the Lusitania prompted the U.S. to consider entering World War I.
Contextual Explanation: In this sentence, "prompted" means that the sinking of the Lusitania was a significant event that caused or influenced the U.S. to start considering entry into the war.
In the Context of the Lusitania and World War I
Prompted: The sinking of the Lusitania prompted the U.S. to enter World War I. This means that the event was a crucial factor that influenced the decision-making process of the U.S. government and public opinion towards joining the war. However, it did not immediately result in the U.S. entering the war.
Promptly: The U.S. did not enter World War I promptly after the Lusitania was sunk. This means that there was a significant delay between the event and the U.S. actually declaring war on Germany. The sinking happened in 1915, but the U.S. did not enter the war until 1917.
Prompted indicates causation or influence: The event of the Lusitania sinking caused or influenced the U.S. decision to eventually join the war.
Promptly indicates immediacy: There was no immediate action taken; the U.S. took a couple of years before entering the war.
Here is how it 'prompted' The US to enter the war.
The sinking of the Lusitania was effectively used as propaganda by the American government to build support for the war against Germany.
Emotional Appeal:
Propaganda posters and media coverage highlighted the tragedy and human cost of the attack, emphasizing the deaths of innocent civilians, including women and children. This played on the emotions of the public, fostering a sense of outrage and a desire for retribution.
Demonizing the Enemy:
The incident was used to portray the Germans as brutal and inhumane, violating international norms and attacking non-combatants without warning. This helped to galvanize public support against Germany and build a moral justification for entering the war.
Recruitment and War Bonds:
The story of the Lusitania was used to encourage young men to enlist in the military and to persuade citizens to buy war bonds. Posters and speeches often referenced the sinking to stir patriotic fervor and support for the war effort.
Examples of Propaganda
Posters: Many wartime posters featured imagery related to the Lusitania, such as images of drowning women and children, to evoke strong emotional responses and rally support for the war.
Newspaper Articles: Newspapers covered the event extensively, often with sensational headlines and graphic descriptions of the attack and its aftermath. This widespread coverage helped to shape public opinion and maintain pressure on the government to act.
So the sinking of the Lusitania 'prompted' the US to enter the war through first the actual sinking then as later used in propaganda, I hope this clarifies the difference in meaning between the words.
Thank you for your comment, I can see how the words sound similar and you can confuse their meaning, As a linguist and historian I appreciate you allowing me the opportunity to clarify for any others who might be confused by the word.
She wasp way ahead into the future.. There was Alma Mahler
& Frida Kahlo shining Stars much ignored during an era too full of Egoistic Males
..
Thank you-your command of poetic imagery and your broad command of English vocabulary impresses me.
Please consider turning down the background music. It can overpower your storytelling.
Anyone can live their dreams.

Good point you look at Doris Duke, Barbara Hutton, Christina Onassis etc. Nancy though did well to avoid those traps, yet she deeply feared commitment, and like the aforementioned never found happiness.
L👀ks like david bowie or vice versa 😆 u sure they aren't related sumhow 🤷🏻♀️😂 i have never heard of her but☝️once again told a GREAT story 👏👏👏👏
❤❤
Such a beautiful woman. What a wise and beautiful journey.
what's with the boring music???
The use of modern stock footage (people arguing, washing dishes, suffering from anxiety) is RIDICULOUS and cheapens an otherwise strong attempt to portray the subject. Please consider getting rid of this unnecessary feature. You don't need it and it impedes your attempt to be taken as a serious filmmaker.
I am not a serious film maker. I have a small youtube channel which tells stories of people and earn no money for it. I am a professional historian and linguist who makes videos for love, and to tell stories of people. Sorry to disappoint you, I am not an editor. Maybe one day if I have enough subscribers I will hire an editor until then I do my best. Sorry again it doesn't meet your standards.
@@MythicMindScape21 Okay, but all you have to do until you get an editor is leave out the stock footage and you've already improved your videos. It's less work, not more.
