Laurens: what are you thinking 'bout?
Du Ponceau: mmm, strawberries and shirtless barons
Laurens: HUH!?
Du Ponceau: HUH?!
Du Ponceau: I'm nearsighted, which basically means I can only see objects right in front of my face.
Von Steuben: Oh! *Bucks hips* Good to know.
I straight up didn't know how to pronounce Du Ponceau until I heard my mom say it (I send my family nonstop emails) and then I was like oohhh that makes sense-
(pon-so I think????)
I wonder how many historical figures names I've been saying wrong in my head until I hear them get called something completely different

TOMORROW, JUNE 3RD, IS THE BIRTHDAY OF PIERRE-ETIÉNNE/PETER-STEPHEN DU PONCEAU!!!!
DU PONCEAU WAS A FRENCH-AMERICAN LINGUIST AND LAWYER, AS WELL AS THE PRESIDENT OF THE AMERICAN PHILOSOPHICAL SOCIETY!!! HE WAS THE FIRST MAJOR WESTERN LINGUIST TO STUDY ASIAN AND INDIGENOUS LANGUAGES, AND EVEN COINED TWO MAJOR LINGUISTIC TERMS STILL USED TODAY!!! DU PONCEAU WAS ALSO HEAVILY SPECULATED TO HAVE BEEN BISEXUAL, AND TOMORROW IS BISEXUAL PRIDE DAY!!! EVERYONE TOLD HIM TO WRITE AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY, BUT HE DIDNT, BECAUSE HE THOUGHT HE WASNT WORTH REMEMBERING!!! LETS SHOW HIM THAT HE WAS!!!!
Reblog this to show pretty boy that he was so worth remembering.

Does anyone know the name of the officer Louise-Geneviéve Du Ponceau was engaged to? Because I can't find anything and I am STRUGGLING
So I was just doing some calculations, right?
But, uhm..
Okay bbg I'm sorry I love you but.... Uhm...
Uhm... Okay no my head actually physically hurts🩵
"Aren't you a historical lams account" w-well yeah but right now I'm focusing on my stupid slightly inaccurate ship with an actual scary age difference and an unhealthy power dynamic so be quiet >:C
Can NOT get over Palmer's biography of Von Steuben calling Du Ponceau "callow" fight me on this idc that he was like 17 he was the most mature person on that boat
Guys I just finished Du Ponceau's autobiography and I actually just need some time to mourn during that process I went from stanning him to becoming emotionally attached to him and then the ending just actually murdered me that stabbed me in the heart, I need to plant roses for him this June omg no I actually just need a break <33333
Chat here's some sketches I made in history class, do we fw them????
(we got out of character Robesmoulins yaoi (maybe I'll post the full pic tho idk), poorly drawn Von Steuben my beloved, and pretty boi Du Ponceau or something :3)
He [Baron Von Steuben] had friendly nicknames for all of them , as , for instance , " Le Petit Walker , et sa grande femme , " " Le paresseux North , " and the " Parson Adams " ( Duponceau ) , which he used when he wanted them to be particularly active .
-Friedrich Kapp, The Life of Frederick William Von Steuben
Du Ponceau is such a pretty boy (I actually CANT draw haha)
I'm crying because I lost my anxiety management book but here's a sketch of the pretty boy (ft. Tumblr quality)
