Korcula Old Town, Croatia

 

Korcula Old Town is a medieval fortified town whose architecture was mainly influenced by the Venetian Renaissance. The town is designed in a fish bone shape, with a succession of narrow streets branching off the spine of the main street. The fish bone shape design was used to reduce the exposure to harsh northern winds and scorching heat of the sun and thus provide citizens with sheltered and comfortable accommodation.

 

All streets in the Old Town are made up of steps that run up and down from the main square and the main street. The only street that has no steps is the first street on the eastern side of the town.

 

The nucleus of Korcula Old Town is part of Croatian national heritage and is protected as a first-class national heritage site.

 

Korcula Old Town is often referred to as Little Dubrovnik.

Nativity Façade

 

Tortoise at the base of column

Constructed between 1894 and 1930, the Nativity façade was the first façade to be completed. Dedicated to the birth of Jesus, it is decorated with scenes reminiscent of elements of life. Characteristic of Gaudí's naturalistic style, the sculptures are ornately arranged and decorated with scenes and images from nature, each a symbol in their own manner. For instance, the three porticos are separated by two large columns, and at the base of each lies a turtle or a tortoise (one to represent the land and the other the sea; each are symbols of time as something set in stone and unchangeable). In contrast to the figures of turtles and their symbolism, two chameleons can be found at either side of the façade, and are symbolic of change.

  

The façade faces the rising sun to the northeast, a symbol for the birth of Christ. It is divided into three porticos, each of which represents a theological virtue (Hope, Faith and Charity). The Tree of Life rises above the door of Jesus in the portico of Charity. Four towers complete the façade and are each dedicated to a Saint (Matthias the Apostle, Saint Barnabas, Jude the Apostle, and Simon the Zealot).

  

Originally, Gaudí intended for this façade to be polychromed, for each archivolt to be painted with a wide array of colours. He wanted every statue and figure to be painted. In this way the figures of humans would appear as much alive as the figures of plants and animals.

 

Gaudí chose this façade to embody the structure and decoration of the whole church. He was well aware that he would not finish the church and that he would need to set an artistic and architectural example for others to follow. He also chose for this façade to be the first on which to begin construction and for it to be, in his opinion, the most attractive and accessible to the public. He believed that if he had begun construction with the Passion Façade, one that would be hard and bare (as if made of bones), before the Nativity Façade, people would have withdrawn at the sight of it. Some of the statues were destroyed in 1936,[clarification needed] and subsequently were reconstructed by the sculptor Sotoo.[citation needed]

 

聖家堂從1882年開始修建,因為是贖罪教堂,資金的來源主要靠個人捐款,捐款的多少直接影響到工程進度的快慢,所以至今還未完工,是世界上唯一一座還未完工就被列為世界遺產的建築物。雖然該教堂並非主教座堂,但教宗本篤十六世於2010年11月7日造訪此教堂時將其冊封為宗座聖殿

  

Natalie Cole - I'm glad there is you

www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1bWhkjx-Hg

 

Said I many times, love is illusion

A feeling result of confusion

With knowing smile and blase sigh

A cynical so and so, am I

I feel so sure, so positive

So utterly unchangeably certain

Though I never was aware of loving you

'Til I suddenly realized there was love in you and oh

In this world of ordinary people

Extraordinary people

I'm glad there is you

In this world of overrated pleasures

And underrated treasures

I'm glad there is you

I live to love

I love to live with you beside me

This role, so new

I'll muddle through with you

If you'll guide me through

In this world where many play at love

And hardly any stay in love

I'm glad there is you

More than ever, I'm glad there is you

Said I many times, love is illusion

 

White rose petals beginning to wither....

 

When the rose is faded,

Memory may still dwell on

Her beauty shadowed,

And the sweet smell gone.

 

That vanishing loveliness,

That burdening breath,

No bond of life hath then,

Nor grief of death.

 

'Tis the immortal thought

Whose passion still

Makes the changing

The unchangeable.

 

Oh, thus thy beauty,

Loveliest on earth to me,

Dark with no sorrow, shines

And burns, with thee.

 

Walter de la Mare

Nature is relentless and unchangeable, and it is indifferent as to whether its hidden reasons and actions are understandable to man or not.

 

-- Galileo Galilei

   

Banned from heaven,

Rejected by earth,

Obstructed by hell.

Knight in broken armour;

Encased in frozen time.

Normal eyes cannot see those

White feathers stained black.

In the arms of expanding solitude,

Never to be warmed by gratitude.

Grieving in an unchangeable paradise,

Seeking solace in the vanishing past.

Hebrews 6:17-18 New International Version (NIV)

17 Because God wanted to make the unchanging nature of his purpose very clear to the heirs of what was promised, he confirmed it with an oath. 18 God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be greatly encouraged.

Friendship is made from the heart,

Silent.

Unwritten.

Unbreakable by distance.

Unchangeable by time.

The cliffs overlooking North Turimetta slowly crumbling.

  

What once seemed permanent and unchangeable is now just history.

 

A grey and overcast morning, but the colours on the jumble of rocks made up for the lack of colour in the sky. Particularly the bright green moss and algae. This was the last shot of the day. On of those, "lets turn around and have one more look" shots on the way to breakfast.

There was a time when we thought that the Anglican Church was as unchangeable and as permanent as the English weather, that the red telephone cubicle was part of an identifiable English character, and that the equally red letter box would be eternal.

 

"Oh, oh, you think you're special

Oh, oh, you think you're something else"

 

The Anglican Church is no longer what it used to be - and its majority is no longer "English". English weather is now a matter of unpredictable surprises, telephone cubicles have been superseded by smart phones, and the Royal Mail is neither royal nor reliable in its delivery of letters. And the English character? You tell me. We in the UK are living among fossilised objects, and if new life is springing up it will in all likelihood have little to do with the Anglican Church, the Royal Mail and Englishness. Let me put it bluntly, it is immigration that is blowing new life into a sclerotised and inelastic body. Leica M8, Voigtlaender 35/1.4.

Although identifying speakers in these weeping poems is tenuous at best, I am suspicious of commentators who do not want a weeping God, a poetic character with human-like emotions. Perhaps such a God may not appear godly or macho enough. Perhaps a weeping deity is too vulnerable. But a weeping God, like an angry one, arises from human experience to name the One beyond every name. Half a century ago, Rabbi Abraham Heschel rightly insisted that the God of Israel is not a Greek deity of stoic power and unchangeableness but a fluid being filled with pathos and emotionally engaged in the life of the people.

Unfortunately not. Actually, neither the Cliffs nor the Royal Mail are unchangeable. The Royal Mail is an institution with a history, true, but it is exposed to the wear and tear of time as any human institution is. Shot with the Helios44M-7 wide-open.

Three of four cygnets of the mute swan family in the Floridsdorfer Waserpark.

 

Two cygnets aren't grey, as is the norm, but white. They are so-called ‘Polish swans’. This is a colour morph that hatches from the egg with white plumage and is therefore also known as ‘immutabilis swan’, as the colour of the plumage does not change in the course of growing up (Latin immutabilis = unchangeable).

www.schwaene.koeln/immutabilis.html

 

It is considered likely that in historical times this colour morph was deliberately bred, especially in Eastern Europe, where this colour variant is particularly common, as there was a trade in swan skins for a time and the skins of the immutabilis morph were earlier marketable.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bright Star

~John Keats 1795-1821~

 

Bright star! would I were steadfast as thou art—

Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night,

And watching, with eternal lids apart,

Like Nature's patient sleepless Eremite,

The moving waters at their priestlike task

Of pure ablution round earth's human shores,

Or gazing on the new soft fallen mask

Of snow upon the mountains and the moors—

No—yet still steadfast, still unchangeable,

Pillow'd upon my fair love's ripening breast,

To feel for ever its soft fall and swell,

Awake for ever in a sweet unrest,

Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath,

And so live ever—or else swoon to death.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

...But no matter how long I lingered in front of the hawthorn, smelled it, imagined its invisible, unchangeable scent in my mind, which didn't know what to do with it ... (Marcel Proust "In search of lost Time")

In the background you can see the young siblings of a greylag goose family. During the breeding season, there was a war between the greylag goose and mute swan parents. Now, however, both families peacefully share the shade under this weeping willow in the Floridsdorfer Wasserpark in Vienna. flic.kr/p/2qXDtgF

אבן עזרא מפרש את קהלת (א, ז): " כָּל הַנְּחָלִים הֹלְכִים אֶל הַיָּם וְהַיָּם אֵינֶנּוּ מָלֵא" - "כי תמיד יעלה אד מהים, והם העננים". כלומר, אלמלא ההתאיידות היו הנחלים ממלאים את הים עד שהיה מציף את הארץ

=

בפסוק: הֲבֵל הֲבָלִים אָמַר קֹהֶלֶת הֲבֵל הֲבָלִים הַכֹּל הָבֶל-קהלת א, ב

הבל משמעותו אדים, הלחות שמצטברת על המראה אחרי שאתה נושף עליה ביום קר, או לאחר מקלחת חמה

=

המילה "הבל" היא מילה נרדפת ל"אדים". אדים הם אחד ממצבי הצבירה של המים. אדים הם מים. תלמידים לפילוסופיה שנתקלים לראשונה באמרה של תאלס "הכל מים" מרימים גבה, אבל כשמבינים את "הבל" כ"אדים" מבינים גם שתאלס למד משלמה המלך, שהמסורת מייחסת לו את כתיבת ספר קהלת

=

כאשר מתבוננים במים מתבוננים במצב צבירה מסוים שלהם: נוזל, גז, מוצק, או במצב אגירה מסוים שלהם: שלולית, אגם, ים, או במצב תנועה מסוים שלהם: גשם, מעין, נהר, גל, מפל. מה שמשותף לכל התופעות האלה, ההרכב הכימי, של המים

-H2O-

אינו נראה לעין אלא במיקרוסקופ. מים הם חומר מיוחד כל כך עד שהפילוסופיה מתחילה בהתבוננות במים. תאלס, הפילוסוף הראשון, (הממציא של הפילוסופיה!) שנולד במאה השביעית לפני הספירה, הצהיר שהכול מים, והפילוסופים שבאו אחריו הסבירו, כל אחד לשיטתו, למה תאלס התכוון. אנחנו יודעים שתאלס לא הכיר את ההרכב הכימי של המים, ולא ראה אותו במיקרוסקופ, ולכן טבעי שנשאל מנין לו שמעבר לריבוי התופעות של המים מסתתרת אחדות? התשובה היא שלא צריך מיקרוסקופ בשביל לראות שמים קופאים בקור, אך חוזרים לזרום לאחר שהם מפשירים בחום, ושאדים שהתקררו חוזרים ונעשים למים... בגשמים

הערה: זה לא שתאלס הצהיר שהכל מים וחזר לחרוש את אדמתו. לדעתי הוא הקדיש את כל חייו לפיתוח הצהרה זו ולהוכחת טיעוניו. מפעלו זכה להערצה בעודו בחיים. תורתו היתה ידועה היטב כמה דורות לאחר שנפטר. ככל שחלף הזמן נשתכחה, עד שנותרו ממנה רק הצהרה זו וכמה אנקדוטות. בימינו יש נטיייה להמעיט בהישגיו של תאלס, אבל על מנת להבין לעומק את הצהרתו ראוי שנשחזר את מפעלו, שנוכיח שהכל מים על פי הידע הרב שנצבר על המים מאז ועד היום

=

אנחנו יודעים לראשונה אודות ההצהרה של תאלס שהכל מים מן הספר הראשון של המטפיסיקה שחיבר אריסטו, שבו הוא מסביר בפסקה קצרצרה שראשוני הפילוסופים חיפשו עיקרון אחד, קבוע, של עצם בלתי משתנה, שהוא המקור לקיומם של כל הדברים, ובפסקה שלאחריה הוא כותב: "תאלס... אומר שהעיקרון [האחד] הוא מים (מסיבה זו הצהיר שהאדמה נשענת על מים). תגלית זו באה לו אולי לאחר שנוכח כי מה שמזין את כל הדברים הוא לח, ושהחום עצמו נוצר מלחות ומתקיים באמצעותה... ומן העובדה שיש טבע לח לזרעים של כל הדברים, ומן העובדה שמים הם המקור של הדברים הלחים". בין הפילוסופים שהגיבו מאוחר יותר על הצהרה זו של תאלס היה הרקליטוס הומריקוס שהעיר כי תאלס הסיק את מסקנתו כשראה חומר לח הופך לאוויר ולעפר

=

על מה חלה ההצהרה הכל מים? באיזה מקרים היא נכונה? האם תאלס צדק? כשני שליש משטח כדור הארץ מכוסים במים, וכפי שהסביר אריסטו לעיל בעלי החיים והצמחים שחיים בתוך המים מקורם בזרעים שטבעם לח, והלחות מקורה במים. כלומר נשאר לבדוק שליש משטח כדור הארץ שאינו כולל צמחים וחיות. בתוך השליש הזה כלולים חומרים שאינם נראים כמו מים אבל ידוע לנו שהם מים: קרח לסוגיו כולל שלג, אדים לסוגיהם כולל עננים. מים זה לא רק מימן דו חמצני אלא גם מה שהמים ממיסים בתוכם: סחף, מלחים, מינרלים אתה לא יכול להגיד מלח בלי להניח מים שהתאדו. רצועת החול של ישראל מקורה בסחף של הנילוס. באותו אופן אתה לא יכול לחשוב על יבש בלי להניח את קיומו של הרטוב. יבש הוא מילה נרדפת למשהו שאינו רטוב. התובנה הזאת חבויה בעברית במלים נגב -איזור שניגבו אותו- ויבשה, איזור שייבשו אותו

=

בתנ"ך של תאלס נכתב "כי מים אתה ואל מים תשוב" ולא כמו בתנ"ך שלנו: בזעת אפיך תאכל לחם עד שובך אל האדמה, כי ממנה לוקחת, כי עפר אתה ואל עפר תשוב - בראשית ג יט

=

הרעיון המיוחס לתאלס שהכל בא מן המים וחוזר למים מקביל לרעיון המקראי: אל מקום שהנחלים הולכים שם הם שבים ללכת - קהלת א, ז

אריסטו מייחס לתאלס את האמירה שהארץ נשענת על מים. אותה תובנה מנוסחת גם בתנ"ך (בתהילים כד א-ב) לְדָוִד מִזְמוֹר. לה' הָאָרֶץ וּמְלוֹאָהּ תֵּבֵל וְיֹשְׁבֵי בָהּ. כִּי הוּא עַל יַמִּים יְסָדָה וְעַל נְהָרוֹת יְכוֹנְנֶהָ

Philosophical significance of water - Water is Everything

=

looking at water deals always with a particular aggregation: liquid, gas, solid, or with a particular storage: a pool, lake, sea, or with a particular movement: rain, a river, a wave, a waterfall. What is common to all these phenomena, the chemical composition of water, H2O, is not visible but under the microscope. Water is such a unique substance that philosophy begins with seeing water. Thales, the first philosopher (The inventor of philosophy!) who lived in the seventh century BC, believed that everything is water, and subsequent philosophers explained, each according to his method, what Thales meant. We know that Thales did not know the chemical composition of the water, and did not see it under the microscope, so naturally we ask how he had come across the hidden entity behind its multiple expressions? The answer is that we don't need to have a microscope to see that water freeze in cold but return to flow after they defrost and that vapors turn into water in the rain.

Note: It is not that Thales declared that every thing is water and returned to plow his land. I think he dedicated his life to the development of this statement and to prove his case. His enterprise was admired in his lifetime. His teachings were well known for several generations after his death. As time went by it was forgotten until all that's left is this statement and some anecdotes. Nowadays there is a tendency to underestimate the achievements of Thales, but in order to understand in depth his statement we need to reconstruct his enterprise - to prove that every thing is water from accumulated knowledge on water ever since.

=

Thales's famous statement that everything is water first appears in Aristotle's Metaphysics 983 b6 8-11. In a short paragraph he explains that early philosophers searched one principle, fixed, unchanging, which is the source of the existence of all things, and he writes in the following paragraph:

Thales, the founder of this type of philosophy, says the principle [of unchangeable substratum] is water (for which reason he declared that the earth rests on water), getting the notion perhaps from seeing that the nutriment of all things is moist, and that heat itself is generated from the moist and kept alive by it (and that from which they come to be is a principle of all things). He got his notion from this fact, and from the fact that the seeds of all things have a moist nature, and that water is the origin of the nature of moist things.

Heraclitus Homericus commented that Thales drew his conclusion from seeing moist substance turn into air, slime and earth.

The statement - everything is water - in what cases is it correct? Was Thales right?

About two-thirds of Earth's surface is covered by water, and, as Aristotle explained above, animals and plants that live in the water originated from seeds which are damp and humidity originates in water.

What is left to check is third of Earth's surface exluding plants and animals.

In this third are materials that do not look like water but we know they are water: sorts of ice (including snow), sorts of vapor including clouds.

Water is not only hydrogen dioxide but also what is dissolved in them: erosion, salts, minerals. You can not think of salt without assuming water evaporation. Israel's sand strip is covered with silt of the Nile. In the same way you can not think of dry without assuming the existence of wet. Dry is a synonym for something that is not wet.

=

In Thales' Bible he wrote: from water you are and to water you will return, and not like in our Bible: By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return. (Genesis 3:19)

=

It is said that Thales of Miletos... said that the beginning (the first principle) and the end of all things is water. (Hipp. i. ; Dox. 555.). This idea is strikingly similar to the Biblical idea: To the place from whence the streams come, there they return again (Ecclesiastes 1:7).

 

Aristotle attributes to Thales the statement that the Earth rests on water. That insight is phrased also in the Bible: The Lord's is the Earth and its entirety, the world and

all that dwells therein. For He has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters Psalms 24: 1-2

=

The meaning of Vapors, Thales and Ecclesiastes

=

Ibn Ezra explains (Ecclesiastes 1:7): "All streams flow into the sea, yet the sea is never full" because of the evaporation of the sea. In other words, if there was no evaporation the streams would have filled the sea, and the sea would have flooded the earth.

=

"Meaningless! Meaningless!

says the Teacher.

Utterly meaningless!

Everything is meaningless.” (Ecclesiastes 1:2).

In Hebrew the word for Meaningless is Hevel which is also the word for steam, the humidity that accumulates on the mirror after you blow on it in a cold day, or after a hot shower...

=

When philosophy students encounter for the first time the saying of Thales that everything is water they are skeptical - why would Thales invent such a wild generalization? But when reading the "all is vapor" of the wisest of all men, King Solomon, author of Ecclesiastes, they understand that Thales studied from Solomon.

When the rose is faded,

Memory may still dwell on

Her beauty shadowed,

And the sweet smell gone.

That vanishing loveliness,

That burdening breath,

No bond of life hath then,

Nor grief of death.

'Tis the immortal thought

Whose passion still

Makes the changing

The unchangeable.

Oh, thus thy beauty,

Loveliest on earth to me,

Dark with no sorrow, shines

And burns, with thee.

Perspective stage ...

 

The Teatro Olimpico in Vicenza

 

UNESCO World Heritage Site and marvel: The Teatro Olimpico in Vicenza.

 

The Teatro Olimpico in Vicenza in northeastern Italy is definitely worth a visit! It is the first free-standing theater building in Europe since ancient times and the oldest covered theater in the world.

 

It was built by the architect Andrea Palladio between 1580 and 1585 in the style of a Roman theater and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

 

Theater and music productions take place in the Teatro Olimpico.

 

The members of the Olympic Academy of Vicenza, of which Palladio was a member, were particularly interested in the stage arts and commissioned him to build a theater hall.

 

The stage architecture was designed by his student Vincenzo Scamozzi after his sudden death.

 

At the opening in 1585, the play "King Oedipus" by Sophocles was performed. Palladio did not live to see it.

 

The Teatro Olimpico was initially a great success, but operations were stopped during the Counter-Reformation. From the middle of the 19th century, occasional performances were held again, but it was not until the post-war period that the theater regained its former fame.

 

The Teatro Olimpico can also be visited independently of the performances.

 

Palladio modified the ancient specifications that he had studied in detail in Rome. The auditorium is a semi-oval with 14 ascending rows of seats, which are closed off by a colonnade. The stage wall offers a view of a palace, a city that is supposed to represent Thebes.

 

Since the houses are smaller towards the back and the stage floor rises towards the back, the scene appears much deeper - a perspective stage.

 

The stage design is unchangeable.

 

Goethe was also impressed by Palladio's architecture at the beginning of his trip to Italy in 1786.

 

The Teatro Olimpico is now only allowed to accommodate 400 spectators (it used to be allowed to accommodate 800 spectators). Depending on the performance, the concert pit is also set up for theatergoers.

 

The series of events begins in spring with classical music concerts and evenings as part of the Vicenza Jazz Festival.

 

Classical plays are then performed in autumn. Since the theater cannot be heated or air-conditioned, performances are not possible in summer or winter.

 

In 1986, director Jean-Pierre Ponnelle filmed the opera "Mitridate, re di Ponto" by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in the Teatro Olimpico.

 

Al Roker, an American producer and actor, released the documentary "Empire of the Eye: The Magic of Illusion" in 2003, in which he describes the spectacular illusions that Palladio created behind the scenes of the Teatro Olimpico.

 

And if you haven't experienced enough culture yet: From Vicenza you can quickly reach three other UNESCO cultural sites: Venice, Verona, and Padua!

It is the eye of ignorance that assigns a fixed and unchangeable color to every object.

 

-- Paul Gauguin

Children of clouds

Remote as Andromeda

We pass, cloud-like

Shadows on eternity

I gaze down the coast

It looking, no doubt, as it did

At the founding of Hadrian's Wall

Infinitesimal change

Witnessed by scrolling heavens

Unreadable overseers of the tread of man,

Sea breaks to foam, clouding

Anemones and sea-fans

Imitating the vapours above

Testimony, in that white stare

Of the unchangeableness of our home

A raindrop splashes my notes

Runs the words together

Reprimanding my musings

A critique that makes me smile

And hearing the laughter of an imminent storm

I run from this seeming reprimand

For momentarily, forgetting about 'Global Warming'

SCHOOL DAY

Praying And Hoping That God May Keep My Wife (Cyrece Delicioso) and Everyone In The Path OF Irma Keep Them Protected By Your Love Oh God

 

Some cry, some smile

Some fight every day

We rise to the top

'Cause we know what it takes

Through it all, we survive

Yet still hold the faith

Unchangeable, Lord, unchangeable

Hey

 

No matter how the dollar might stock up

Me still nah change me a go stay ruff

Inna the Gideon, you haffi buckle up your lace

Be smart, doh be a cruff, no, no

Life, it's a journey, it's a long race

Mama say, "Son, be wise and doh bring disgrace"

So me tek up the broom and start sweep the place

'Cause all these wastes, they got to get erase

A love to me people, that me embrace

The truth a the truth and that can't erase

So hell to all of those who waan hate

Jah send me fi finish this race, so

 

We ain't giving up, no

We put up a fight, we

Got to be ready

'Cause time's getting dread, eh

Jah say don't you worry

I'll be in a hurry, Lord

We got to be ready

'Cause time's getting dread

So, we pray, we pray, we pray

We pray, we pray, we pray

"Every area of trouble gives out a ray of hope; and the one unchangeable certainty is that nothing is certain or unchangeable. "
