Title A name given to the resource Villa San Girolamo Subject The topic of the resource The English Patient begins in the Villa, named eventually as Villa San Girolamo. It has served as a hospital for the British forces. Previously it served as lodging for the Germans forces, and before that as a nunnery. Hana works in the hospital, but refuses to move on with the rest of the doctors, nurses and patients when the hospital uproots to move north. Instead she hands in her uniform and remains by the side of her English patient, Almasy. The Villa is located in the hills near Florence, Italy. It is likely in Fiesole, Italy. It is in such ruin, that it protects Hana and the Patient from outsiders. Eventually, David Caravaggio and Kirpal Singh also arrive at the Villa. The villa anchors the narrative. It harbours the characters of the novel in the aftermath of the war, although many of their minds wander to other locations. While living in the villa, they remember their homes in Toronto and India, their work in Pisa, England, Cairo, and the Egyptian/Libyan desert. The English Patient, while remaining in body in the villa, wanders in mind to the Gilf Kebir, the Wadi Sura, and other locations of the desert. In “Deconstructing the Nation – Transnationalism in Ondaatje’s The English Patient” Vijayalayn and Jose argue that the villa parallels the passing identities of the patient and other characters, “in keeping with the patient’s portrayal, the villa also represents a phenomenon of passing identities. From being a nunnery it becomes a lodging camp for the German troops, subsequently converted into a hospital when captured by the allied soldiers. It is noteworthy that with every new occupation increasingly substantial damages are inflicted on the villa’s architecture. (Vijaylayn and Jose, 677). The villa has become a place where most of the characters can recover from the war. They are damaged, much as the villa is. They shed their skins, as explorers, lovers, nurses, thieves... and become individual people grappling with what they have lost and who they are. Description An account of the resource “The Villa San Girolamo, built to protect inhabitants from the flesh of the devil, had the look of a besieged fortress, the limbs of most of the statues blown off during the first day of shelling. There seemed little demarcation between house and landscape, between damaged building and the burned and shelled remnants of the earth” (Ondaatje, 43) https://omeka.uottawa.ca/jmccutcheon/files/original/a7361106bf9f0322d2f4d52a864697cb.png b6e03fa1d7ef7f116f6dd0105b4d7c4f Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Wadi Sura/Cave of Swimmers Subject The topic of the resource Wadi Sura is mentioned early on in the book, although it is only later in the novel that we realize the significance of this place for Almasy. Wadi Sura (Wadi meaning dried up body of water) is a series of caves, near a dried up body of water, likely a lake. It is near the Gilf Kebir, and the explorers find it during their search for Zerzura. When Almasy first mentions it, he is emphasizing his knowledge of geography. He remembers “In Wadi Sura I saw caves whose walls were covered in paintings of swimmers. Here there had been a lake. I could draw its shape on the wall for them. I could lead them to its edge, six thousand years ago” (Ondaatje). When Wadi Sura is mentioned again, it is referred to as “the cave of swimmers”. He recounts a return to Wadi Sura, “His limbs exhausted from the four nights of walking. He left his clothes spread on the rocks and climbed up higher into the boulders, climbed out of the desert, which was now, in 1942, a vast battlefield, and went naked into the darkness of the cave. He was among the familiar paintings he had found years earlier. Giraffes. Cattle. The man with his arms raised, in a plumed headdress. Several figures in the unmistakable posture of swimmers. Bermann had been right about the presence of an ancient lake. He walked farther into the coldness, into the Cave of Swimmers, where he had left her. She was still there. She had dragged herself into a corner, had wrapped herself tight in the parachute material. He had promised to return for her. He himself would have been happier to die in a cave, with its privacy, the swimmers caught in the rock around them. Bermann had told him that in Asian gardens you could look at rock and imagine water, you could gaze at a still pool and believe it had the hardness of rock. But she was a woman who had grown up within gardens, among moistness, with words like trellis and hedgehog. Her passion for the desert was temporary (Ondaatje, Michael. The English Patient (Kindle Locations 2043-2047). McClelland & Stewart. Kindle Edition.) He is remembering his return to the cave of swimmers, after leaving the injured Katherine behind. She has died from her injuries, and he has not been able to make it back before her death. He is too late. This place, a place that was a triumphant discovery years earlier, it now somber. He mentions Bermann in this passage. Real life Bermann in fact mentions these caves in his lecture “Historic Problems of the Libyan Desert”, “We lived with the members of mission in the narrow circle of granite boulders that surround the 'Ain Daua. It was May, and the heat was terrific amongst the stones. Refuge we found was in certain caves, or rather holes, with which walls of 'Uweinat are honeycombed. These grottoes, which offered protection against the heat, had been used during this winter by Major expedition, by the Italians, and by a party of British airmen-yet discovered that a little higher up similar little caves contained wonderful documents of an old civilization. It was Almasy who found the first of these caves and showed it to Professor Ludovico di Caporiacco, of the Italian mission, and to me. Two hours later about a dozen more of these caves were located, all covered with beautiful rock paintings in four colours, showing cattle and other animals, mostly tame ones, and human beings: dark-skinned warriors with bows in their hands” (Bermann, Historic Problems of the Libyan Desert, 461). The cave of swimmers is a place that represents Almasy’s guilt and grief at the death of Katherine. https://omeka.uottawa.ca/jmccutcheon/files/original/e415ebafbb1b5240db81098f7c7ce7fa.jpg 0bb0e0506256c93cd342db4766af8f87 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
