He also made etchings and lithographs, such as Apocalypse (1921), that, more so than his paintings, reveal his capacity for Expressionist power The Metropolitan Opera’s 2024-25 season of Saturday matinee broadcasts continues with Rossini's "L'Assedio di Corinto" (The Siege of Corinth) From the Met: "Join us as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of Beverly Sills’s historic Metropolitan Opera debut in Rossini’s 'The Siege of Corinth.' Sills starred in this dramatic and rarely performed gem alongside Shirley Verrett and Justino Diaz "'The Siege of Corinth' was performed in an Italian version prepared by Thomas Schippers in 1969 for La Scala under the title 'L'Assedio di Corinto.' This edition in turn was based on 'Le Siège de Corinthe,' Rossini's revision for Paris of an earlier work 'Maometto II,' from which Schippers reinstated numbers excised by the composer in adapting his tragedy for the French public.'"

Martin also loves Abe’s Grill which has some of the best hand-cut biscuits in the South (topped with ham or not) another Southern gem in Corinth is the Mississippi Delta tamale (even though Corinth is about two-and-a-half hours from the Delta) The spicy Delta tamale is smaller than a Latin tamale If you’ve never been to Dillworth’s Tamales a drive-thru serving the classics since 1962 they’ll give you your first dozen free — though a dozen costs $5.80 Dillworth’s makes theirs with all beef (I am a fan) and conveniently is across the street from Lauren’s Cake Shop I’m not saying I drove 180 miles (each way) for one of these cupcakes … but I’m also not saying I didn’t and the cake-to-frosting ratio is just right Faithful readers will remember that while I loved my trip to Hattiesburg in last year’s Road Trip Issue it was oppressively hot and I ate an obscene number of snowballs to cool off Northern Mississippi was refreshingly temperate but I did stop in Tepachelandia for a lemon-lime ice I was warmed up after getting caught in a rainstorm with grilled cheese and tomato soup at the Generals’ Quarters hotel Russell’s Beef House is the resident steakhouse with a serious salad bar Most people come to Corinth because of Shiloh National Military Park The great battlefield sites span the Tennessee-Mississippi state line My interest in all things Civil War is fairly limited a sculpture garden and bucolic walking trail with QR codes that tell the story of nearly 2,000 freed men who worked to rebuild their community and their lives after the war Corinth was once known as the “Crossroads of the South” because two rail lines intersected there That was one of the reasons Corinth was so crucial as a transportation hub during the war includes tons of artifacts about Corinth history including an old Dillworth’s tamale-delivery bike There’s a working train set where you can honk the horn on the trains and outside is a raised platform for train watching and a car you can climb on Transportation buffs will also like Dream Riderz Classic Cars a private collection of vintage cars dating back to the 1920s well-maintained museum that contains 110 years of Coca-Cola Bottling history The Visit Corinth tourism office has a cool follow the painted footsteps on the sidewalk reading historical markers about some of the buildings and also visiting some of the sites mentioned here Many are included in Corinth’s walkable downtown which is dotted with fun boutiques interspersed with restaurants and historic sites Love & a Dog Boutique for plus-size clothes and Sanctuary Antiques Luxury boutique hotel Generals’ Quarters was built in 1869 as a church built on the foundation of another church destroyed in the retreats from Shiloh Since then it has had a number of different owners and identities as a bordello It was named as an acknowledgment of the generals who occupied Corinth New ownership has completely renovated and modernized the space with big comfortable (air-conditioned) rooms You can hear the church bells from across the street ring on the hour It’s fun to flip through the guest book and read about folks — from as far away as New Zealand — who have stayed here as well as people who come for regular repeat visits It’s in easy walking distance to all of downtown Corinth’s charming restaurants The space doesn’t glorify Civil War history but there are photos from Confederate troops that may not feel appropriate to some guests I’ve stayed at the Hampton Inn Corinth in the past The one quirk about road-tripping to Corinth is that the best businesses have odd hours Some are open only Monday through Thursday I plotted out a Venn diagram of all the overlapping hours of all the best places and landed on Wednesday night through Saturday night as the optimum Corinth timeline most attractions — including the many delicious roadside Amish markets — are closed on Sundays But all the national battlefield sites are open on Sundays so those can be an easy visit on your way home after a weekend trip Corinth is a three-hour drive southwest of Nashville If you want to add a detour or a second road trip you can take the Natchez
