    saturn is one of the strangest paintings i've ever seen lol
    i had to study for a class and it was so interesting to hear the backstory behind it having it been painted on the walls

    I think the book series "His Dark Materials" fits very well into the dark academia genre, and you'd love them! Some of my favourite books ever

    Leonie, you have to check out "Macbeth"! It has descent-into-darkness story arc, so if you loved "Picture of Dorian Gray"and "Vicious", you would love that one!

    I've been to Park Güell by Gaudí twice and it's like stepping on a fairytale... there are small details everywhere that makes it really special, I hope you can come one day and see it by yourself! Btw, I loved the look!

    That language part resonated so much with me, lol.
    I'm german, so I speak german (and english obviously), I can understand a bit of dutch because like you said, they're kinda similar, I took french in school but also can't really SPEAK it because it's been 7 years, super basic level of spanish and I'm also trying to learn japanese right now. Also have to learn latin (and maybe greek) for university.

    I love that this tag is a thing and you always give off dark academia vibes & I love it. The outfits are SO cute & peak dark academia. I'm a history major and would love to be an egyptologist except I would prob have to live in Egypt to actually have that career. So I teach myself in my free time lol. Audible has this great new thing called The Great Courses. They're lectures by professors and basically people who know what they're talking about. I'm listening to one right now called The History of Ancient Egypt and it's so good! It helps that each lecture is about 30 minutes, so you can listen to one at a time and there are 24ish hours in all I believe. Just wanted to let you know! It's like getting the quality information and lecture of a college course but the cost is a lot different haha. There are also many different subjects but you mentioned Egyptian mythology so I thought you may wanna know!

    The Mona Lisa Smile movie is a very clear example of the Feminine Mystique that took placed in the 50s, 60s and even 70s. Betty Friedan wrote about this phenomenon (The Feminine Mystique) in case you're interested in learning more about it! Loved this video to bits.

    I love Leonie and seriously, no offence to anyone, but I absolutely hate how westernized dark academia is. I mean, coats/candles/shakespeare blah blah it's all so western centric and I think that's so sad that people limit it to just that. Have you ever looked up indian dark academia on instagram or tumblr? It is mindblowing!!! Gorgeous saris/anarkalis, diyas, urdu poets/so many books, have you seen mughal architecture?!!!, henna, hindu mythology, chai oh my god there's so much i wish dark academia enthusiasts were more diverse with their love for DA.
