Chiclayo To chachapoyas to Cajamarca Itineraries
Archaeology & Forests of Northern Peru including Sipan, Kuelap & Gocta.
Begins in coastal Chiclayo and ends in Colonial Cajamarca.
All land transport, guided excursions, entrances, and most meals included.
This private tour has at its heart the archaeological and natural highlights of the Chachapoyas region.
Beginning in Chiclayo, we visit some of the many remains of the Lambayeque cultures, before heading eastwards and upwards into the Andes, to a hotel close to the natural wonder of the Gocta Falls. Here, we walk through fields and beautiful cloud forest to the foot of the waterfall, which is one of the tallest in the world.
We then focus on the little-known Chachapoya people and the remains they have left, such as the sarcophagi of Karajia, the tombs of Revash, the Mummy Museum at Leymebamba and, of course, the spectacular fortress of Kuelap.
Leaving the Chachapoyas area, we make the spectacular drive from Leymebamba, via Celendin, to Cajamarca. Here we have a city tour, prior to taking our onward flight.
Itinerary Outline:
Day 1: Arrive Chiclayo. Visit Ventarron, Tumbas Reales Museum & Tucume. Overnight at Los Faiques, Salas.

6 Days £1000 / $1278
6D/5N from Jaen 6 Days £1188 / $1518
6D/5N from Chiclayo
6D Itinerary
Day 1: Chiclayo or Jaen to Cocachimba (L, D)
You are met at either the hotel or airport in Chiclayo or Jaen. We then start the drive, by private vehicle, eastwards and upwards, into the Andes.
We cross the Continental Divide and drive down a twisting, well-made road, through a dry valley. Crossing the Marañon River, a major tributary of the Amazon, we enter the department of Amazonas.
Carrying on from the city of Bagua, we will see rice fields and then enter the Utcubamba Canyon, for a final magnificent drive up to Cocachimba, where we spend the night at Gocta Natura Cabins, or similar.
Day 2: Gocta Waterfall (B, L)
We start our trek to the waterfall of Gocta straight from the hotel door. The waterfall, though known about for many years was only measured in 2006, and at the time, reckoned to be the third highest in the world.
The trek goes along the side of a valley, through sugar cane fields and into forest that is home to the yellow-tailed woolly monkey, sloths and the magnificent cock-of-the-rock.
With glimpses of the waterfall along the way, we arrive at the base of the highest fall after three hours. Those brave enough may want a dip in the pool at the base.
Later, we return to the village for a second night in Gocta Natura Cabins, or similar.
Day 3: Huancas & Karajia (B, L, D)
After breakfast, we drive to the village of Huancas just north of Chachapoyas. This village is famous for its ceramics made by the women.
Close to the village is the 962 m (3,156 ft) deep Sonche Canyon.
We return to Chachapoyas and visit the daily market to the see the ladies from Huancas selling their famous pots; and then we carry down to the Utcubamba and cross over to the neighbouring Province of Luya.
From the town of Luya, we drive on to the village of Cruz Pata, where a short walk (45min) takes us down to Karajia. Here, striking sarcophagi, sculpted like humans, have become an icon of the area. For 750 years they have looked towards the rising sun and undoubtedly are the resting place for some elite caste of Chachapoya warriors.
Returning to our transport, we drive on to our accommodation at La Casa de Doña Lola, or similar, with regular stops along the way to observe other tomb sites.
The simple lodge is set in a private reserve containing many typical trees of the Utcubamba Valley, along with some unique species such as the Kuelap Cedro.
Day 4: Kuelap (B, L, D)
Leaving our lodge, we drive 1.5 hours to the largest ancient stone structure in South America - Kuelap. This fortress is perched on a ridge at 3,000 m (10,000 ft) above sea level, and is still mainly covered with vegetation typical of the cloud forest.
Your guide will show you around the site, and explain the mysteries and past of this unforgettable testament to ancient city planning.
Later, we return to our private transport and drive back to La Casa de Doña Lola, or similar, for a second night.
Day 5: Revash & Leymebamba (B, L, D)
We drive to Yerbabuena (1 hour) and we walk for a steady two hours uphill for a close-up view of a spectacularly colourful cliff tomb (horseback or shorter options available). This extremely photogenic site is perched on a yellow cliff and the tombs are like mini houses, with red pictographs dating back to 1200 AD.
We continue on to Leymebamba (45 mins) and visit the museum housing the 219 mummies found at nearby Laguna de los Condores in 1997.
We stay the night in Kentitambo, or similar, an exclusive lodge surrounded by gardens designed to attract hummingbirds (to date, 17 different species).
Option 2 (lighter):
We drive to Leymebamba and visit the museum that houses 219 mummies and many other objects recovered from tombs overlooking a nearby lake in 1997.
Afterwards, we head south into The Valley of the Condors. This forested valley has had nesting condor for more than ten years. Also there are great chances of seeing grey-breasted mountain toucans and golden-headed quetzals. There are numerous trails that can be taken through this mini cloud forest reserve.
Later, drive back to the museum and we stay the night in Kentitambo, or similar, an exclusive lodge surrounded by gardens designed to attract hummingbirds (to date 17 different species).
Day 6: Leymebamba to Cajamarca (B, L)
Today, drive along one of the most spectacular roads in Peru (6 hours). Start by driving up to a pass (3,600m / 11,800ft) overlooking the Marañon Canyon.
The road heads down to the river through many different eco-systems. Cross the bridge at the valley bottom at 850m (2,789ft), then drive up 2,400m (7,874ft) to the western side of the canyon. A little beyond is the market town of Celendin, famous for its straw hats.
Another two hours, crossing high rolling hills and agricultural land, and we arrive in Cajamarca. We can drop you at your hotel or the airport, as desired.
Tour ends.
Day 1: Chiclayo (L, D)
Ventarron Archaeological Site.
You are met at either your hotel or the airport and start your tour by visiting the ancient religious site of Ventarron. This is one of the oldest constructions in the Americas, with evidence that the first temple was built in 2,000BC.
Later we travel to Lambayeque and the Royal Tombs Museum to see the collection of Moche (0-700AD) artefacts found at Sipan.
After lunch, we carry on to Tucume to see the city of adobe pyramids. Tucume was built by the Lambayeque/Sican culture (800-1350 AD) and added to by the Chimu (1350 – 1450 AD) and Inca (1450 – 1532 AD).
We carry on along the road, for another hour, to Salas, where we spend the night in Los Faiques, or similar, an exclusive guest house set amongst dry forest, and with well-tended gardens.
Day 2: Travel to Cocachimba (B, L, D)
Leaving Salas, we carry along the old Panamerican Highway to Olmos, where we start heading east and the road climbs up to the Andes.
View of Gocta Lodge & Utcumbamba Valley.
The two drops of Gocta Falls.
Huancan lady displaying her home-made pottery.
Striking sarcophagi of Karajia.
Typical Chachapoya building at Kuelap.
Cliff tombs of Revash.
A sleepy square in Celendin.
Another two hours, crossing high rolling hills and agricultural land, and we arrive in Cajamarca.
We stay the night at Hotel Laguna Seca, a farmstead with its own hot springs, outside the city, or similar.
Day 8: Cajamarca (B, L)
Cajamarca's Plaza de Armas, with Cathedral.
Half day City Tour of Cajamarca to Santa Apolonia, the Belen Complex and the Ransom Room.
Tour ends in time for the afternoon flight to Lima.

Have you been looking for that much awaited trip with your family members for a holiday outing? Go ahead and plan a road trip and you can hire motorhomes as they have all the latest facilities and comfortable accommodation.
Hiring a campervan is a good option as you are able to drive it on your own. So, one can take it wherever they want at your own convenience. Campervans come in various sizes and you can choose a vehicle as per your requirement that is, the number of people travelling in your party.
Always ensure the following when hiring a campervan for a road trip.
1. You need to be of the right age for driving the vehicle. Check with the company about the age limit if there is any. You will also need to have the required license for driving. You need to take care these things beforehand.
2. Choose the vehicle size depending upon the place and landscape that you wish to travel to. Hire a smaller vehicle for places with narrow roads and tight bends as managing a big vehicle in such places can be a difficult task. So hire motorhomes according to the geographical settings of a place.
3. While travelling with kids look for vehicles which will give you the best facilities where children are able to sleep. They get tired easily so creating a provision where they can rest while on the go is always a must.
4. Clearly define your budget, as you also have to allow for fuel and campsites. The more berths you have and the higher the level of specification the more it will cost you. So hire a van as per your living style and the level of comfort that you are looking for.
5. The campervan needs to be spacious enough for all your party to sleep and move around, these vehicles can appear cramped when there are lots of people aboard so its well worth thinking this through and getting this part of your journey right from the outset and make sure the layout suits your party.
6. When you hire motorhomesmake sure all the safety standards are met by the campervan company.
We at Freeline Motorhomes provide caravans for hire thus catering to all your travel needs for a perfect road trip. You can contact us if you are planning for hiring a campervan.

From the hushed opening of Britten's atmospheric setting of the National Anthem, building through Elgar's Coronation Ode to the well-known 'Land of Hope and Glory', our Jubilee Concert promises to be a really special event. Involving five separate choirs and members of two orchestras the programme culminates in a performance of Berlioz's dramatic setting of the Te Deum.
Berlioz's majestic and awe-inspiring setting of the Te Deum received its first performance on 30 April 1855 at St. Eustache in Paris. According to Berlioz there were 950 performers, who performed this 'colossal' and 'tremendous' work with 'the most magnificent precision'. The church was full and the work was given an ecstatic reception, moving many to tears.
Written for two adult choruses, a children's choir and a huge orchestra, together with a tenor soloist and organ, this epic piece was conceived on a vast canvas. A work full of dramatic contrasts, the massive opening chords alternating between organ and orchestra set the tone for a series of choruses on a grand scale. The Te Deum culminates in the Judex crederis, in which the almost mesmeric repetition of the long melody line leads to a triumphant finale featuring brass and organ.
The Te Deum is an important work which is not often heard, and we are delighted to link up together for this joint performance in the magnificent setting of Ely Cathedral. Be sure not to miss it!

Build-A-Bear Gets Incentives To Move Headquarters To Downtown St. Louis
By Corinne Ruff & Rachel Lippmann • Jul 12, 2019
Carolina Hidalgo | St. Louis Public Radio
The St. Louis Board of Aldermen approved a tax incentive package Friday, sweetening a plan for Build-A-Bear to move its headquarters — and 200 employees — to downtown St. Louis from its current location in Overland.
After passing on a 22-3 vote, the bill now moves on to Mayor Lyda Krewson for a final signature, which a spokesman said she will provide.
St. Louis Ward Reduction Plan Off To A Rocky Start
By Corinne Ruff • May 28, 2019

Updated 4:57 p.m. May 29 with comment from Pam Boyd, D-27th ward — A plan to implement the voter mandate to reduce the number of wards in St. Louis is underway. Exactly how it will be done, though, is still up in the air.
Alderwoman Heather Navarro, D-28th ward, chairs a yet-to-be-formed advisory committee that will design a transition plan to go from 28 wards to 14 by 2023. While the redrawing of ward lines will be left up to the Board of Aldermen, Navarro's advisory committee aims to study how the smaller group of aldermen would equitably deliver city services, among other things.
That committee was meant to deliver a report on ward reduction by the end of May. The committee, however, has not yet been assembled. Navarro says that's because she wanted the process to be as inclusive and transparent as possible.
Would Fewer Wards Make St. Louis Better? New Committee Will Investigate
By Chad Davis • Mar 25, 2019
The St. Louis Board of Aldermen is forming a Ward Reduction Advisory Committee to get public input as to what going from 28 to 14 wards would mean for the city.
The committee will study the effects of ward reduction on the Board of Aldermen, budgets and constituent services. The group will then be tasked with providing recommendations.
Lease extension for the Muny moves forward
By Jeremy D. Goodwin • Jun 14, 2018
Nancy Fowler | St. Louis Public Radio
The Muny is one step closer to extending its stay in Forest Park. The Board of Alderman's Parks Committee voted 4-0 Thursday to extend the outdoor theater's lease to 2071 and make other changes. The full board is expected to give final approval before its summer recess in mid-July.
The Muny's lease with the city had been set to expire in 2031. The early extension will help the organization secure donors for its $100 million capital campaign, Dennis Reagan, Muny president and CEO, told board members.
Aldermen delay votes on residency for city employees, number of wards in St. Louis
By Rachel Lippmann • May 18, 2018
The St. Louis Board of Aldermen Friday delayed a final vote on changes to the city's residency requirement for workers and the number of aldermen.
Supporters of reversing a 2012 public vote that cut the number of wards from 28 to 14, and of eliminating the residency requirement for most city employees, did not have the votes to send the measures to Mayor Lyda Krewson. She had already pledged to veto the ward reduction reversal.

HEATHER NAVARRO VIA CAMPAIGN WEBSITE
Updated at 3:50 p.m. July 12 with details from Secretary of State's office about voter ID law — Lyda Krewson's ascension to the mayor's office left an open seat on St. Louis' Board of Aldermen. It was filled Tuesday by Heather Navarro, who won with 69 percent of the vote.
Navarro was one of four candidates vying to fill the 28th Ward seat for the remaining two years of Krewson's term. It was also the first election in the St. Louis area since Missouri's new voter ID law took effect in June, and there were differing accounts on whether there were issues at the polls.
4 candidates vie to succeed Krewson on St. Louis Board of Aldermen

Navarro, Vossmeyer and Roberts via campaign websites
Arguably, the biggest challenge for the four candidates in St. Louis' 28th Ward special election isn't fundraising or policy positions: It's reminding people in the central corridor know to vote on July 11.
Democrat Heather Navarro, independents Celeste Vossmeyer and Steve Roberts Sr., and Green Party candidate Jerome Bauer are vying to serve the roughly two years remaining on Mayor Lyda Krewson's term. The ward represents parts of six neighborhoods, including the Central West End and Skinker DeBaliviere.

The Bixby letter is a brief, consoling message sent by President Abraham Lincoln in November 1864 to Lydia Parker Bixby, a widow living in Boston, Massachusetts, who was thought to have lost five sons in the Union Army during the American Civil War. Along with the Gettysburg Address and his second inaugural address, the letter has been praised as one of Lincoln's finest written works and is often reproduced in memorials, media, and print.

Controversy surrounds the recipient, the fate of her sons, and the authorship of the letter. Bixby's character has been questioned (including rumored Confederate sympathies), at least two of her sons survived the war, and the letter was possibly written by Lincoln's assistant private secretary, John Hay.

Text

President Lincoln's letter of condolence was delivered to Lydia Bixby on November 25, 1864, and was printed in the Boston Evening Transcript and Boston Evening Traveller that afternoon. The following is the text of the letter as first published:

History

Lydia Parker married shoemaker Cromwell Bixby on September 26, 1826, in Hopkinton, Massachusetts. The couple had at least six sons and three daughters before Cromwell's death in 1854. Some time before the Civil War, Bixby and her family settled in Boston.

Meeting with Adjutant General Schouler
On September 24, 1864, Massachusetts Adjutant General William Schouler wrote to Massachusetts Governor John Albion Andrew about a discharge request sent to the governor by Otis Newhall, the father of five Union soldiers. In the letter, Schouler recalled how, two years prior, they had helped a poor widow named Lydia Bixby to visit a son who was a patient at an Army hospital. About ten days earlier, Bixby had come to Schouler's office claiming that five of her sons had died fighting for the Union. Governor Andrew forwarded Newhall's request to the U.S. War Department with a note requesting that the president honor Bixby with a letter.

In response to a War Department request of October 1, Schouler sent a messenger to Bixby's home six days later, asking for the names and units of her sons. He sent a report to the War Department on October 12, which was delivered to President Lincoln by Secretary of War Edwin Stanton sometime after October 28.

On November 21, both the Boston Evening Traveller and the Boston Evening Transcript published an appeal by Schouler for contributions to assist soldiers' families at Thanksgiving which mentioned a widow who had lost five sons in the war. Schouler had some of the donations given to Bixby and then visited her home on Thanksgiving, November 24. The letter from the President arrived at Schouler's office the next morning.

Military record of the Bixby sons

Nevertheless, at least two of Lydia Bixby's sons survived the war:
 Private Arthur Edward Bixby (known as "Edward") – Company C, 1st Massachusetts Heavy Artillery (enlisted June 24, 1861). Deserted from Ft. Richardson, Virginia on May 28, 1862. Trying to secure a discharge for him, his mother filed an affidavit on October 17, 1862 which claimed Edward had enlisted underage without her permission. Born July 13, 1843 in Hopkinton, Massachusetts. Returned to Boston after the war.
 Sergeant Charles N. Bixby – Company D, 20th Massachusetts Infantry (served July 18, 1861 – May 3, 1863). Killed in action near Fredericksburg. Born c.1841 in Hopkinton, Massachusetts.
 Corporal Henry Cromwell Bixby – 1st enlistment, Company G, 20th Massachusetts Infantry (served July 18, 1861 – May 29, 1862). 2nd enlistment, Company K, 32nd Massachusetts Infantry (served August 5, 1862 – December 17, 1864). Captured at Gettysburg and sent to Richmond, Virginia. Paroled on March 7, 1864 at City Point, Virginia. Born March 30, 1830 in Hopkinton, Massachusetts. Died November 8, 1871 in Milford, Massachusetts, from tuberculosis he contracted while a soldier.
 Private Oliver Cromwell Bixby, Jr. – Company E, 58th Massachusetts Infantry (served February 26, 1864 – July 30, 1864). Wounded at Spotsylvania on May 12, 1864. Killed in action near Petersburg, Virginia. Born February 1, 1828 in Hopkinton, Massachusetts.
 Private George Way Bixby – Company B, 56th Massachusetts Infantry (served March 16, 1864 – ?). Enlisted under the name "George Way", apparently to conceal his enlistment from his wife. Captured at Petersburg on July 30, 1864. First held prisoner at Richmond but later transferred to Salisbury Prison in North Carolina, arriving there on October 9, 1864. His fate after that remains uncertain. Military records report conflicting accounts of him either dying at Salisbury or deserting to the Confederate Army. Born June 22, 1836 in Hopkinton, Massachusetts.

Schouler's report to the War Department erroneously listed Edward as a member of the 22nd Massachusetts Infantry who had died of his wounds at Folly Island, South Carolina. Bixby may have been trying to conceal—possibly from embarrassment or hope of further financial aid—Edward's 1862 desertion. (She had been receiving a pension following Charles's death in 1863.)

At the time of her September meeting with Schouler, Bixby's son George had been a prisoner of war for just over a month, and Henry was still hospitalized following his exchange.  The War Department failed to use its own records to correct errors in the Schouler report.

Questions of character
Lydia Bixby died in Boston on October 27, 1878, while a patient at Massachusetts General Hospital. In his initial letter to Governor Andrew, Schouler called Bixby "the best specimen of a true-hearted Union woman I have yet seen," but in the years following her death both her character and loyalty were questioned.

Writing to her daughter in 1904, Boston socialite Sarah Cabot Wheelwright claimed she had met and had given charitable aid to Lydia Bixby during the war, hoping that one of her sons, in Boston on leave, might help deliver packages to Union prisoners of war; but she later heard gossip that Bixby "kept a house of ill-fame, was perfectly untrustworthy and as bad as she could be".

In the 1920s, Lincoln scholar William E Barton interviewed the oldest residents of Hopkinton, Massachusetts for their memories of Bixby's family before she moved to Boston. They recalled her sons as being "tough" with "some of them too fond of drink". One son may have "served a jail sentence for some misdemeanor".

On August 12, 1925, Elizabeth Towers, a daughter of Oliver Bixby, told the Boston Herald that her grandmother had "great sympathy for the South" and that her mother recalled that Bixby had been "highly indignant" about the letter with "little good to say of President Lincoln". In 1949, Towers' nephew, Arthur March Bixby, claimed that Lydia Bixby had moved to Massachusetts from Richmond, Virginia; though this assertion is contradicted by contemporary records which list her birthplace as Rhode Island.

Copies

Original copy

The fate of the original letter given to Bixby is unknown. William A. Bixby, a son of Oliver, told The New York Times in an August 9, 1925 interview that he did not know what happened to the letter after his grandmother received it, though he doubted it still survived. A few days later, William's sister, Elizabeth told the Boston Herald that she also did not know the letter's fate but speculated Bixby may have torn it up, resenting that it incorrectly said five of her sons had been killed. William's son, Arthur March Bixby, told the New York Sun in 1949 that he recalled his father telling him that she had angrily destroyed the letter after receiving it.

In the early 20th century, it was sometimes claimed that the original letter could be found on display at Brasenose College at the University of Oxford along with other great works in the English language. Lincoln scholar F. Lauriston Bullard investigated this claim in 1925, discovering that it was untrue and the college had never heard of the Bixby letter.

Tobin facsimile

Christie's auction house receives many supposed original Bixby letters every year, including copies of a lithographic facsimile of the letter in widespread circulation. These first appeared in 1891, when New York City print dealer Michael F. Tobin applied for a copyright to sell souvenir copies of the letter with an engraving of Lincoln by John Chester Buttre for $2 each. Soon, Huber's Museum, a dime museum in Manhattan, began displaying a copy, "stained by coffee and exposure", of Tobin's facsimile as "the original Bixby letter" and selling their own copies for $1 each.

Charles Hamilton, an autograph dealer and handwriting expert, examined the Tobin facsimile; concluding it had been copied from a poorly executed forgery originally written in pencil and retraced in ink to imitate Lincoln's handwriting, calling it "halting and awkward and makes his forceful hand appear like a child's scrawl".

Tobin's facsimile also errs when compared to the original text of the letter published in Boston newspapers; adding the salutation "To Mrs Bixby, Boston Mass", misspelling the word "assuage" as "assauge", omitting the word "to" after the word "tendering", changing the plural "words" into "word", not capitalizing the words "freedom" and "republic", missing the recipient "Mrs. Bixby" on the bottom left, and combining the original three paragraphs into one. Huber's Museum corrected the spelling of "assuage" in their version of the facsimile.

Authorship
Scholars have debated whether the Bixby letter was written by Lincoln himself or by his assistant private secretary, John Hay. November 1864 was a busy month for Lincoln, possibly forcing him to delegate the task to Hay.

Second- and third-hand recollections of acquaintances suggest Hay may have claimed to others that he wrote it, but his children could not recall him ever mentioning composing the letter. Writing to William E. Chandler in 1904, Hay said "the letter of Mr. Lincoln to Mrs. Bixby is genuine", but he may only have been referring to its text. In a 1917 letter to historian Isaac Markens, Robert Todd Lincoln said Hay had told him that he did not have "any special knowledge of the letter at the time" it was written.

Historian Michael Burlingame, who believes Hay is the author, has pointed out that Hay's scrapbooks have two newspaper clippings of the letter while largely containing Hay's own writing. However, they also contain material written by Lincoln including the Gettysburg Address and the Second Inaugural.

Scholars favoring Lincoln's authorship, including Edward Steers and Jason Emerson, note that the Gettysburg Address and the Farewell Address are similar examples of Lincoln's highly regarded style. Other scholars, such as Burlingame, have countered that Hay wrote pieces that compare favorably to the Bixby letter and note words and phrases in the letter that appear more frequently in Hay's writings than those of Lincoln. For instance, Burlingame notes the word beguile appears numerous times in the works of Hay and the phrase I cannot refrain from tendering is used by Hay in an 1864 letter to Quincy Gillmore, but neither appears once in the other collected works of Lincoln. However, the phrase I cannot refrain from is used by Lincoln in an 1859 letter to Salmon P. Chase.

In 1988, at the request of investigator Joe Nickell, University of Kentucky professor of English Jean G. Pival studied the vocabulary, syntax, and other stylistic characteristics of the letter and concluded that it more closely resembled Lincoln's style of writing than Hay's.

A computer analysis method, developed to address the difficulty in attribution of shorter texts, used in a 2018 study by researchers at Aston University's Centre for Forensic Linguistics identified Hay as the letter's author.

Legacy
The letter's passage "the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom" is inscribed on the base of the statue of Lady Columbia at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in Hawaii.

Discussions on the topic of siblings dying in war have frequently mentioned the letter; such as the Sullivan brothers, the Niland brothers, the Borgstrom brothers, and the Sole Survivor Policy of the United States military.

In the 1998 war film Saving Private Ryan, General George Marshall (played by Harve Presnell) reads the Bixby letter to his officers before giving the order to find and send home Private James Francis Ryan after Ryan's three brothers died in battle, setting in motion the eponymous story of the film. In a voiceover near the end of the film, Marshall quotes the Bixby letter in a letter to Mrs. Ryan.

On September 11, 2011, former U.S. President George W. Bush read the Bixby letter during the memorial ceremony at the World Trade Center site on the tenth anniversary of the September 11 attacks.

"Medicine and Empathy in Contemporary British Fiction: A Critical Intervention in Medical Humanities" by Anne Whitehead reviewed by Iro Filippaki
Published by mdiclhumanities on April 6, 2018 April 6, 2018
Anne Whitehead, Medicine and Empathy in Contemporary British Fiction: A Critical Intervention in Medical Humanities (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 2017).
Empathy, power structures, and what we are capable of not doing
In a 1988 interview with George Plimpton, Maya Angelou passionately argued for the importance of fiction by saying that novelists don't lie: 'The fact is that […] they are using some made up names, and made-up people and made-up places, and made-up times, but they are telling the truth about the human being, what we are capable of.' Angelou unwittingly positions affect, which for Spinoza is the capability to act and feel, simultaneously at the heart of the truth of human beings and at the heart of fiction. Anne Whitehead's recent book Medicine and Empathy in Contemporary British Fiction expands this view by arguing that the affect of empathy stands at the forefront not only of what we are capable of doing, but also of what we are capable of not doing. Her original argument is that empathy in culture and literature is not necessarily a positive concept, but an affect that is central to the discourses of power and privilege.
Medicine and Empathy starts as an exploration of the role of empathy in the humanities and the sciences, but quickly turns into a fierce discussion of the role that empathy plays in neoliberalism. Whitehead offers a structured review of conceptualisations of empathy within the medical humanities and broader scientific discourse before going on to explore the "dark side" of empathy in fiction. To perform this rather challenging task, Whitehead debunks the prevalent view of fiction according to which narrative and storytelling must induce empathy in the reader. Instead, she explores narratives with topics ranging from war and encounters with the Other (Chapter 2 and 4), to the doctor-patient relationship (Chapter 3), to dealing with autism and syndromes (Chapter 1), in order to depict the nuanced and insidious aspects of empathy in British literature. Whitehead's neatly signposted and concise monograph includes close readings of contemporary British fiction by Mark Haddon, Pat Barker, Ian McEwan, Aminatta Forna, and Kazuo Ishiguro. Through these close-readings, she makes a convincing case for the existence and development of empathy in the British novel as an Other-oriented affect, that, instead of claiming power over the other's consciousness, enables the individual to recognise and celebrate difference. This view of empathy relies on a neo-phenomenological reading and on feminist affect theory in order to 'emphasise an account of empathy that does not claim to know or to understand the other, but remains alert to her distance and her difference' (2).
Whitehead finds that for the sciences, the definition of empathy is 'volatile, unstable, and contested' (53); at the same time, for the humanities, the complex of empathy is viewed as necessary for the development of ethics and human rights in general. Whitehead debunks, or rather, re-situates, this almost sacrosanct view of empathy by asserting that there is 'a scarcity of tangible evidence that readerly empathy translates into greater altruism in everyday behaviour' (64). The book proposes empathy's moving away from the dual doctor-patient relationship dominating the Medical Humanities and asks what it is that 'empathy does, as well as who […] does the labour of empathy' (12) and what implications this has for global power structures. In other words, Whitehead employs key British fictional texts to show that empathy cannot be separated from its sociopolitical origin, and to highlight that building on a supposedly inherently positive view of empathy can have serious racial, political, and economic implications.
As Whitehead's interdisciplinary study shows, dominant accounts in the humanities and the sciences assume that empathy is an inherently positive affect; both claim that the individual can probe into another's mind as a result of fiction; and both are wrong. Instead, Whitehead sees empathy as the potential limit of human capability, understanding, and ultimately emotion. Empathy is what we should be moving towards, but its full attainment is impossible and unwanted, since it can distract or divert from political change (11). Consistent with this view, the most important accomplishment of the book is that it employs empathy as a tool to explore what being human means in an age of biomedicine, bio-capitalism, and commodification of emotion: by showing that one of the most enduring definitions of empathy include 'how one would […] respond to a particular set of circumstances' (62), Whitehead boldly relates the capability of feeling empathy as a means to re-invent oneself so that one fits into the neoliberal ideal.
Not all is bleak, though. Through a series of stimulating close-readings where privilege and existing power structures are called into question, as in the close-reading of McEwan's Saturday and Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go, Whitehead points to literature's positive influence on political change by reading them 'against the grain,' challenging prevalent notions and critical views of these novels. In Chapter 2, where the book's main argument of politicising empathy is in full swing, Whitehead asks 'what difference does it make to our understanding of the empathetic encounter if we ask where and when it takes place, as well as between whom?' (61), a question that echoes Pierre Bourdieu's notion of 'symbolic violence' (1992): Whitehead here argues that empathy legitimizes the status quo, as Bourdieu argued with regard to dominant ideology, while grappling with difficult narratives and controversial issues, such as Kathy's affectlessness in Never Let Me Go (Chapter 4) or the imperialist affect in Forna's The Memory of Love (Chapter 3) to point out that no-one and nothing is a-political; not even suffering. By narrating, diagnosing, or exhibiting suffering and illness, as well as by gazing at, talking about, and treating pain and suffering, a political agenda is always already at play.
Medicine and Empathy is a challenging read, in that it raises more questions than it can possibly provide answers for. These questions, though, and the debates they bookend, are a necessary provocation for scholars in any discipline that studies how humans relate to each other, whether the object of investigation is communication through brainwaves or through storytelling. Medicine and Empathy is a significant and much-needed book: Whitehead is a relentless summoner of doubts as to how empathy is deployed in the Medical Humanities and a reconstitutor of the humanities in the medical. Ultimately, Medicine and Empathy is a manifesto for contemporary British literature, not because the latter shows us what we are capable of, but because it problematises what we haven't been able to do so far.
Dr Iro Filippaki obtained her PhD from the University of Glasgow in 2017 in English Literature and Medical Humanities, where she explored the representation of war traumatic narratives in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. She currently teaches Academic Writing at the University of Glasgow, as well as a Student Selected Component for UofG's Medical School, titled Literature and Medicine.

Rebecca Hall Preps Directorial Debut With Ruth Negga, Tessa Thompson
By Tom Baker	 Last updated Aug 7, 2018
Having established herself as a low-key, dark horse pick for one of the best British actors working today, Iron Man 3 and Professor Marston and the Wonder Women star Rebecca Hall has announced her first project behind the camera. Hall will direct a film adaptation of Nella Larsen's 1929 novel Passing, with Marsden helmer Angela Robinson on board as executive producer.
The book's title refers to the concept of "passing," wherein light-skinned people of colour attempt (and oftentimes succeed) in convincing people they're white. The story's two leads, childhood friends Clare Kendry and Irene Redfield, will be played by Thor: Ragnarok's Tessa Thompson and Preacher's Ruth Negga.
In a statement released to Deadline along with the announcement, Hall said "Nella Larsen's Passing is an astonishing book about two women struggling not just with what it meant to be black in America in 1929, but with gender conventions, the performance of femininity, the institution of marriage, the responsibilities of motherhood, and the ways in which all of those forces intersect.
"I came across the novel at a time when I was trying to reckon creatively with some of my personal family history, and the mystery surrounding my bi-racial grandfather on my American mother's side. In part, making this film is an exploration of that history, to which I've never really had access."
That personal connection may go some way to allay the fears of those sceptical Hall was the right person for such a race-centric story. Set in Harlem, the book involves Clare and Irene reuniting as adults and taking great interest in how their lives have developed since they last met; for Clare, this mostly consists of attempting to pass as white for her unsuspecting husband's sake.
Robinson added, "Rebecca Hall is a brilliant artist who I've had the pleasure of working with and I've loved the Nella Larson novella, Passing since I first read it many years ago. When Rebecca told me about her family history and her passion to tell this story, I immediately signed on to help bring her vision of this incredible book to the screen."
Hall will next be seen on-screen in Woody Allen's A Rainy Day in New York and a comedic version of Holmes and Watson starring Will Ferrell and John C Reilly. Tessa Thompson, meanwhile, will co-star with LaKeith Stanfield in similarly socially-conscious surreal comedy Sorry To Bother, due for release later this year.

Is He Going to Pop the Question or Fall for His Beautiful Best Friend Who Was There the Whole Time?
Things are getting serious with your man, and it seems like you might be headed in the direction of long-term commitment. You've even managed to remain fairly chill about his effortlessly gorgeous best friend from college who's been there through all his past relationships and is named something cool like Kaya. So is he going to pop the question or fall for his beautiful best friend who was there the whole time? Take this quiz to find out!
a.) Yes. He's told me on multiple occasions that he wants me in his life forever.
b.) Once at a party his old friend drunkenly told me that he and Kaya had a marriage pact in college and everyone always thought they'd end up together.
a.) Yes. I'll even spend time with his mom one-on-one when she's in town.
b.) We're civil, but it's a little strained. Kaya, however, has spent multiple holidays with them and is fiercely beloved by his sisters.
Has he purchased a ring?
a.) I think so! I found a ring box in his nightstand but I haven't said anything!
b.) Yes. He went ring shopping for me with Kaya so she could try them on. As he went to put one on her finger, he made a joke about proposing, and they laughed together, but they stopped laughing when the ring slid into place. His hand lingered and their eyes met for a moment before she quickly looked away. "It's good. I think she'll love it," she said, barely able to disguise the pain in her voice.
Mostly A's: He's going to pop the question! All signs point toward a proposal. Congratulations, lovebirds!
Mostly B's: He's going to fall for his beautiful best friend who was there the whole time. Sorry, but Kaya was there before you and she'll be there after you. Honestly, you should be happy for them. They're beautiful, and you were literally the only thing standing in the way of their happiness!

I Feel So Damn Proud to Be a Woman This Year
Jill Robbins
This morning, we all awoke to the news that Time magazine had finally announced their 2017 Person of the Year. Except for the 14th time since the honor's inception in 1927, the award was given to a group, or collective — a group of women who were promptly dubbed "The Silence Breakers." Women who, in one way or another, stood up and spoke out against sexual harassment, assault, or other injustices they endured as the result of an unfair power dynamic.
That news alone was pretty powerful to read. But when I caught wind of an accompanying video that Time released just hours later — a video that captured the many voices and stories of The Silence Breakers themselves — I found myself with chills.
As I watched, I felt pride, anger, outrage, hope, and everything in between rush through me. There were even some tears; though I'm not sure if I was crying over the realization of just how marginalized women have been all these years, or because I was happy to see that the tides are finally changing.
Maybe it was a little bit of both.
I know I don't have to tell you that this has been one hell of a year. I've heard "Go home, 2017 — you're drunk" said aloud more times than I could count. Many have even referred to 2017 as a dumpster fire. And honestly? I think that's a pretty accurate assessment. I'm praying, chanting, crossing my fingers, wishing on stars, and burning candles in the hopes that 2018 is going to bring us some healing and change. Yesm I'm also voting and using my voice and speaking up more; but after the year we've had, I figure some chanting and candles can't hurt, either.
And while the daily headlines usually make me want to close my eyes, plug my ears, and sing "La, la, la, I CAN'T HEAR YOU," or fling a brick at my T.V., I also have to admit — it's been a hell of a year in a good way, too.
Just hear me out on this one.
2017 was the year of the everyday badass woman. Time has only confirmed what we've been witnessing all year long. In fact, 2017 has shone light on so many badass, fearless women who have stepped up, stuck their necks out, raised their voices, and raised their fists for all the rest of us, that it's almost hard to remember all their names and all their stories.
Some of The Silence Breakers have been famous — like Taylor Swift, Selma Blair, and Megyn Kelly, to name a few. Others are notable women in business or journalism. But many of them have been ordinary people, just like you and me, who probably don't consider themselves to be anyone special at all.
And yet they are.
The Silence Breakers of 2017 — famous or not — weren't trying to make headlines. Or see their photos slapped across the front page of the paper. Or bask in their proverbial 15 minutes of fame. They were doing what they thought was right. What their conscience had likely been telling them to do for some time, but it felt too hard. And finally, we have recognized them for it.
I don't know about you, but I call that progress.
'I always thought maybe things could change for my daughter … I never thought things could change for me.'
They were doing their bit to make things better for the rest of us, and their actions truly have advanced women everywhere. Because now, people are listening to things they didn't before. And paying attention to things — in the workplace and in society — that just months ago, they might have overlooked.
"I was afraid for my kids, I was afraid of the retaliation," admitted Wendy Walsh, a psychologist who says she was harassed by Bill O'Reilly after appearing as a guest on his Fox News show. "I know what men can do when they're angry."
But ultimately, she says she "felt it was my duty for the women who were silenced to be brave."
"I always thought maybe things could change for my daughter," Megyn Kelly added. "I never thought things could change for me."
And yet, they already have.
As much as this video fired me up, though, it also reminded me of just how much work we have left to do.
From the Women's March in January to the millions of #MeToo messages that were splattered across social media in October, these Silence Breakers have buoyed the rest of us. We've witnessed the fall of famous, powerful men like Harvey Weinstein, Bill O'Reilly and most recently, Matt Lauer.
We are gaining traction and it's an incredible thing to watch. We're not putting up with ass-grabbing, innuendo, or harassment any longer. Thanks to the Silence Breakers, we're staring sexual assault in the face and calling it what it really is.
For every person who has ever feared making waves, consider these words uttered by Dana Lewis, a hotel hospitality coordinator who was experiencing unwelcome sexual advances at work in New York's Plaza Hotel: "I figured that if I just stand up, then someone else will stand up with me."
It turns out, she was right. The domino effect that was set off this year has women all over the country literally standing up for each other and for what's right. And in doing so, they're standing up for all of us — and our children.
I have two young sons, and while I think I'm doing a damn good job of teaching them to respect women, observe boundaries, and understand the power of no, I'm grateful that they're growing up in a world where people like Adama Iwu, Terry Crews, Tarana Burke, Alyssa Milano, Taylor Swift, Dana Lewis, Rose McGowan, Lyndsey Meyer, Sandra Muller, Susan Fowler, and so many more are standing up and holding us all accountable.
And yes, some of those names are familiar and some of them aren't. Fame and notoriety amplify the message of the Silence Breakers, but all the messages are powerful.
There are a whole lot of badass women out there who have your back — and we're just getting started.
I'm happy — and, like Megyn Kelly, a little surprised — to see such sweeping change in my lifetime. But mostly I'm grateful that for what these Silence Breakers are doing to cultivate a climate of respect for the next generation.
It's important to remember that while this video is incredibly powerful, there are thousands, perhaps millions more Silence Breakers that walk among us. Maybe you are one of them.
2017 might have been a dumpster fire train wreck of a year, but no one can deny that it was also a stellar one for feminism. Yes, this display of woman power might have bloomed through adversity, but we've shown that we are a force to be reckoned with and that we're not willing to look the other way, keep our lips zipped, or take anyone else's crap.
Bravo to Time for recognizing how important The Silence Breakers are and for shining more light on them. We can all be Silence Breakers. We should all be Silence Breakers.
So stand up. Speak up. Take no crap. There are a whole lot of badass women out there who have your back — and we're just getting started.
