Twilit Grotto Esoteric Archives Contents Prev wands Next timeline The magic wand The use of the magic wand can be traced back to proto-Indo-European times, as shown by its appearance in both Zoroastrianism as well the early Hinduism. Zoroastrianism and the Magi The magi of the ancient world were the priesthood of the Zoroastrian religion. As Plato noted, mageia refers to "the Magian lore of Zoroaster" ( Alchibiades 1.122 ). The baresman (Phl. barsom ), or sacred bundle of twigs (or "slender wands"), is a ritual implement which has played an important part in Zoroastrian religious practices since prehistoric times. According to Kotwal and Boyd, the baresman is an "ancient Indo-Iranian emblem of seeking the Holy", and it "establishes a connecting link between this getig [material] world and the menog [spiritual] realm. The barsom is, as it were, the conduit through which the archetypal principles and powers manifest their presence and receive the offerings." ( A Persian offering, 1991

116. Art Of The Renaissance http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Forum/7074/art.html

Art of the Renaissance David The first nude statue of the Renaissance, David was sculpted by Italian sculptor Donatello, about 1430-1435. It is nearly life size. Madonna and Child Painted by Italian artist and monk Fra Filippo Lippi in about 1455, it is an example of Renaissance painting: building layers of translucent paint to create a luminous effect. David This David was sculpted by Michelangelo, between 1501 and 1504. This David, unlike others, shows him waiting for Goliath, instead of victorious after battle. Birth of Venus This painting was comissioned by Lorenzo de'Medici in 1482, and was painted by Italian artist Sandro Botticelli, and is a tasteful mixture of mythology, Christianity, and astrology. Mona Lisa Perhaps one of the most famous Renaissance paintings is the Mona Lisa, painted by Italian artist, Leonardo da Vinci. It is a typical Renaissance painting. It is famous for her haunting, inexplicable smile. The Nymph Galatea Italian artist Raphael's inspiration for this painting came from a poem. 1512-1514 Leda and the Swans This was painted by Leonardo da Vinci, around 1506.

120. E-Ren: Student Projects Discusses the technological, commercial and political reasons for the increase in mathematical development during this period. http://www.idbsu.edu/courses/hy309/projects/math.html

Lesson Plan: Renaissance Mathematics by Juan Wang Spring Semester, 1993 I. Thesis of the lesson. This lesson intends to present public school students a brief history of the progress of mathematics during the Renaissance. The lesson will combine an introduction to Renaissance mathematical developments with an explanation of its interactions with social influences of the time. Hopefully students will have a fresh understanding of the Renaissance period from this particular perspective. II. Introduction The development of mathematics almost stopped between the fourteenth century and the first half of the fifteenth century. Many social factors contributed to this situation. The ten years of the dreadful Black Death devastated Europe in the mid- fourteenth century. This caused nearly half of the population to die. The plague greatly distracted peoples' minds from the pursuit of knowledge. The Hundreds Years War between England and France (1337-1453) also created general instability in Europe. Partly because of these tragedies, the earlier Renaissance period suffered a general economic recession. Faced with such an unfavorable social and economic environment, the learned world could hardly devote its energy to intellectual development. The growth of mathematics was not only retarded by war, but also by the injurious influence of traditional scholastic philosophy. The scholastic scholars highly valued studies in the humanities, such as philosophy and literature. Students enthusiastically spent their energies on Aristotle's logic and philosophy. The intellectual leaders of those times also quarrelled over subtle subjects in metaphysics and theology. Useless questions, such as "How many angels can stand on the point of a needle?" was the kind of topic which attracted scholars' interests. The study of mathematics was given minimal attention. Mathematicians could hardly receive respect from scholars of other disciplines. There were few jobs in universities for mathematicians. At some universities, the curriculum requirement of mathematical learning had not changed for almost two centuries since the fourteenth.
