His diary for the entire year of\u00a01953 consists of four entries in March. His first diary,\u00a0begun in the summer of 1942, he manages to maintain till mid-November, making it the latest month of any year that Frye records to any significant extent. Which is to say that drawing on anniversary occasions from the diaries is a haphazard\u00a0endeavor\u00a0at best. Still, while we find our footing here and build our readership and contributor base, this kind of\u00a0exercise promises\u00a0nutritious tidbits.\u00a0What Frye says in a throwaway observation often reveals more than many people manage with their best shot. We&#8217;ll make this first entry a two-fer, covering both the 19th and the 20th of August.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<address><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">1942<\/span>:<\/strong> On the <strong>19th<\/strong>, Frye reflects mostly on the war, which was then not going well for the allies.\u00a0 He also makes some prescient observations about China, and goes on to make some biting and equally prescient\u00a0remarks about Western historiography. (All quotes are from volume 8 of the Collected Works, edited by Bob Denham.)<\/address>\n<blockquote><p>[63] Today the news was all about the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com\/index.cfm?PgNm=TCE&amp;Params=A1ARTA0002292\" target=\"_blank\">Dieppe raid<\/a>, &amp; the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Eastern_Front_(World_War_II)#Don.2C_Volga.2C_and_Caucasus:_Summer_1942\" target=\"_blank\">Russian front<\/a> also got a front-page splash.\u00a0 The fact that the Chinese stormed\u00a0&amp; captured Wenchow, a city of 100,000 on the coast, was recorded in a tiny box in the second section.\u00a0I simply cannot understand this assumption that the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/World_War_II#War_in_China\" target=\"_blank\">Chinese front<\/a> is of no importance or interest.\u00a0It&#8217;s all the sillier when one realizes that the\u00a0current of world history is now\u00a0going through Asia &amp; that Europe has ceased to be\u00a0of any historical significance.\u00a0China will probably have the next century pretty well to itself as far as culture, &amp; perhaps even civilization, are concerned.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>[64] Western historical dialectic gives me a pain anyway.\u00a0God thought of us.\u00a0He started us back in Nile slime &amp; Euphrates mud, then the Greeks added reason, the Hebrews God, the Romans law and the British fair play, until here we are.\u00a0Asia is irrelevant: it has no real history because it didn&#8217;t contribute anything to our great Western omelette.\u00a0Phooey. In Sept. 1939 the New Yorker wrote a stentorous leader about a world of peace being plunged into war.\u00a0Two hundred million people, if that, go to war in Western Europe and that&#8217;s a world at war. Half a billion people have been fighting for years in Asia and that&#8217;s peace. I expected something better from the New Yorker.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>\u00a0After\u00a0recording some positive\u00a0comments\u00a0about crime writer\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.edgarwallace.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Edgar Wallace<\/a> whom he has just read for the first time,\u00a0Frye concludes with a sardonic review of the latest <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Katherine_Hepburn\" target=\"_blank\">Katherine Hepburn<\/a> film.<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>[66] Was told by someone that <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0035567\/\" target=\"_blank\">Woman of the Year<\/a> <\/em>with Katherine Hepburn was good, &amp; went down to see it.\u00a0 It was with a quite good propaganda film, <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0033486\/\" target=\"_blank\">Confirm or Deny<\/a><\/em><em>. <\/em>Our propaganda films are surprisingly adult. The other show was about a quasi-<a href=\"http:\/\/www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk\/USAthompsonD.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Dorothy Thompson<\/a>, who gave up a brilliant public career for the man she really luhved. She could speak every language in Europe but she couldn&#8217;t cook, &amp; all the housewives in the audience gurgled. There was one good line, the moral of the picture, that women should be illiterate and clean, like canaries. All foreigners are funny. For small-town Midwestern isolationist consumption.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>On the <strong>20th<\/strong><\/em><strong>, <\/strong><em>Frye makes some observations on reading <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pepysdiary.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Samuel Pepys<\/a> &#8212; &#8220;I find him more baffling and elusive than anyone&#8221; &#8212; and then elaborates on the idiosyncratic\u00a0art of\u00a0diary writing:<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>[68] Pepys knew perfectly well what he was doing: he wrote a book which he well knew was an art-form.\u00a0His motive in doing so is not obvious, because his <em>genre<\/em>, the diary, is not a branch of autobiography, as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.geocities.com\/Paris\/LeftBank\/1914\/ed_main.html\" target=\"_blank\">[John] Evelyn&#8217;s<\/a> is. He was a supreme observer, making himself a visionary, <em>se faire voyant<\/em>, as much as Blake or Rimbaud.\u00a0And he knew perfectly how effective &amp; oracular the random is: his camera keeps on clicking after he gets in bed with his wife because he knows better than to shut it off. A real &amp; artistic passion for observation in itself with no attempt at creative follow-through is rare, but it exists. And there&#8217;s a riddling, gnomic quality in the photograph absent from the painting. When I try to visualize Pepys I visualize clothes &amp; a cultured life-force. I have a much clearer vision of the man who annoyed Hotspur or Juliet&#8217;s Nurse&#8217;s husand.\u00a0I feel that Pepys makes the dead eerie and transplanetary, not our kind of species at all. He does not observe character either: I can&#8217;t visualize his wife or my Lord. Even music he talks about as though it were simply a part of his retiring for physic.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">1950<\/span><\/strong> is the only other year with diary entries for August and\u00a0cover his\u00a0stay in Cambridge, Massachusetts on a Guggenheim Fellowship\u00a0<\/em><em>.\u00a0 On the <strong>19th<\/strong> he records\u00a0a tour of the Yale campus:<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>[558] &#8230;We saw the buildings, but I&#8217;ll have to get a map if I&#8217;m to get any notion of it in my mind.
