De nuptiis Philologiae et Mercurii.
DANSK/ENGLISH:
Fra Martianus Capella: Formælingen mellem Merkur og Filologi, med kommentar af Rémi d'Auxerre. 10 årh., Italien (?).
Dialektikken har et par trick i ærmet, som hun benytter mod de to elever, som hun underviser. I den anden hånd holder hun en skriveplade.
Capellas bog er hovedværket i traditionen. Den beskriver brylluppet mellem Merkur (det bevægelige, merkurielle, tankesind, det kviksølvagtige) og Filologi (fornuft), hvor personifikationerne af de syv frie kunster bringer deres gaver. Værket veksler mellem højstemt poesi og lærestykker i svingende grad af indsigt.
De syv frie kunster blev forstået som discipliner, en fri mand i antikken skulle beherske, men de var ikke formaliseret i et system før Capella.
Martianus Capella, The Marriage of Mercury and Philology, partially commented by Rémi of Auxerre. Italy (?).
Dialectics teacher and two students. Tenth century. BNF, Manuscripts, Latin A 7900 fol. 132V.
Advised by Alcuin, Charlemagne advocates extensive literary education, the only way to understand the most difficult biblical texts. In large monasteries of Gaul, Corbie and Saint Riquier, St. Martin of Tours, but also near some cathedrals in Reims or Lyon for example, and in the palace of the emperor, advanced schools were organized for the first time in a clear and structured way.
The Carolingian education relies on liberal arts textbooks: one in nine books, written around 400 by Martianus Capella, describing the marriage of Mercury (Word and Reason) and Philology (friend of Reason). This book, where each discipline is personified, is supplemented by redevelopment and enhancements made to the sixth century by Cassiodorus (Institutiones) and Boethius.
Holding a large writing tablet in the right hand, Dialectics teaches the queen discipline of argumentation to two schoolchildren. She spears one of them with her stick while snakes, symbolizing the arguments of the controversy emerge out of her sleeve, pointing their heads to the young students.
This is an essential book to learning Japanese. It is one of many texts
that can be studied to improve ones vocabulary, Kanji, or grammar. Having
many resources available to you I believe is important for secondary
language acquisition. I would like to explore English textbooks that
Japanese students use.

During World War II the Curtiss-Wright Corporation sponsored an aeronautical engineering training and employment program for women known as the Curtiss-Wright Cadettes. The program condensed a two and a half year course of study to ten months. Between February 1943 and March 1945, over nine hundred female college students were recruited to study engineering, aeronautics, and design at seven different universities. In all, seven hundred and sixty-six graduated from the program and went to work in five Curtiss-Wright factories. Many worked in drafting departments. Others were quality control inspectors and technical writers. Like most other women who worked in the aviation industry they were unceremoniously dismissed at the end of hostilities and their contribution largely ignored. A few of the women went on to complete their engineering degrees while many more became teachers.
The artifacts and documents on display are on loan from the Curtiss-Wright Cadettes Project.

Mappa schematica delle condizione del plasma stellare al variare dei parametri temperatura e densita'...
Ya...I don't have a girlfriend.
OK so this semester I'm taking PHY 111 and PHY 113 classes at Arizona State University's downtown Phoenix campus. First lecture was today. I think it's going to be cool. As long as one knows the fundamentals of algebra, trigonometry and geometry, physics is not a hard subject to learn; or so I'm told!
Sarah studying hard for her CIMA exams. She gets mega stressed out but I always try to do my best to help her :)

But Moleskine journals were prominent in our Sociology books this semester.
The guy who wrote the book would insert his journal entries though the chapter. A lot of them were "written" on Christmas ??? Like, several entries took place on Christmas day in different spots in the world.
Yeah I know I had like nine months to scan an example, but the book had to be sold that day.
