Cantar XLV

Con usura.

Con usura no tiene el hombre casa de buena piedra

con bien cortados bloques y dispuestos

de modo que el diseño lo cobije,

con usura no hay paraíso

pintado para el hombre

en los muros de su iglesia

harpes et lutz (arpas y laúdes)

o lugar donde la virgen reciba el mensaje

y su halo se proyecte por la grieta,

con usura

no se ve el hombre Gonzaga,

ni a su gente ni a sus concubinas

no se pinta un cuadro para que perdure ni para tenerlo en casa

sino para venderlo y pronto,

con usura,

pecado contra la naturaleza,

es tu pan para siempre harapiento,

seco como papel, sin trigo de montaña,

sin la fuerte harina.

Con usura se hincha la línea

con usura nada está en su sitio

no hay límites precisos

y nadie encuentra un lugar para su casa.

El picapedrero es apartado de la piedra

el tejedor es apartado del telar,

con usura

no llega lana al mercado

no vale nada la oveja con usura.

Usura es un parásito

mella la aguja en manos de la doncella

y paraliza el talento del que hila.

Pietro Lombardo no vino por usura

Duccio no vino por usura

ni Pier della Francesca,

no por usura Zuan Bellini

ni se pintó "La Calunnia"

No vino por usura Angélico,

no vino Ambrogio Praedis,

no hubo iglesia de piedra con la firma: Adamo me fecit.

No por usura St. Trophime

no por usura St. Hilaire.

Usura oxida el cincel

Oxida la obra y al artesano

Corroe el hilo en el telar

Nadie hubiese aprendido a poner oro en su diseño,

y el azur tiene una llaga con usura

se queda sin bordar la tela.

No encuentra el esmeralda un Memling.

Usura mata al niño en el útero

no deja que el joven corteje

Ha llevado la sequedad hasta la cama, y yace

entre la joven novia y su marido

contra naturam

Ellos trajeron putas a Eleusis

sientan cadáveres a su banquete

por mandato de usura.

Canto XLV With Usura With usura hath no man a house of good stone each block cut smooth and well fitting that design might cover their face, with usura hath no man a painted paradise on his church wall harpes et luz or where virgin receiveth message and halo projects from incision, with usura seeth no man Gonzaga his heirs and his concubines no picture is made to endure nor to live with but it is made to sell and sell quickly with usura, sin against nature, is thy bread ever more of stale rags is thy bread dry as paper, with no mountain wheat, no strong flour with usura the line grows thick with usura is no clear demarcation and no man can find site for his dwelling. Stonecutter is kept from his tone weaver is kept from his loom WITH USURA wool comes not to market sheep bringeth no gain with usura Usura is a murrain, usura blunteth the needle in the maid’s hand and stoppeth the spinner’s cunning. Pietro Lombardo came not by usura Duccio came not by usura nor Pier della Francesca; Zuan Bellin’ not by usura nor was ‘La Calunnia’ painted. Came not by usura Angelico; came not Ambrogio Praedis, Came no church of cut stone signed: Adamo me fecit. Not by usura St. Trophime Not by usura Saint Hilaire, Usura rusteth the chisel It rusteth the craft and the craftsman It gnaweth the thread in the loom None learneth to weave gold in her pattern; Azure hath a canker by usura; cramoisi is unbroidered Emerald findeth no Memling Usura slayeth the child in the womb It stayeth the young man’s courting It hath brought palsey to bed, lyeth between the young bride and her bridegroom                               CONTRA NATURAM They have brought whores for Eleusis Corpses are set to banquet at behest of usura.

What is new..

13B.03 - Seal of Salomon

The star of David can be seen in the room. I believe it came from the ruined cathedral in Alet-les-Bains . It is - again - a reference to the south of France and the Catharic influence on the game. Ring a bell? See here for more information.

One of the more interesting features of the ruined cathedral in Alet-les-Bains is the fact that it has stained glass windows made in the form of the “Star of David” or Hexagram. (website)

More information about the star of David.

Because of its geometric symmetry, the hexagram has been a popular symbol in many cultures from earliest times. Anthropologists claim that the triangle pointing downward represents female sexuality, and the triangle pointing upward, male sexuality; thus, their combination symbolizes unity and harmony. In alchemy, the two triangles symbolize *"fire" and *"water"; together, they represent the reconciliation of opposites. Some medieval alchemists even borrowed the talmudic punish mayim, fiery water, and shamayim , heaven - to demonstrate the interpenetration of the two realms. 1 Because if this symbolism, the hexagram was even used occasionally as the emblem displayed above a brandy shop. (From here)

13B.04 - Decoration

The decoration seen in the room came from the main gate of the church of St. Trophime in Arles.

Some trivia:

There is an animation in the game, it destroys the beast statue. It is called IG_6_66. Which is kind of funny because the number of the beast is 666.

ARELATE AND GLANUM

I.

The city of Arelate was annexed by the Romans in 123 BC. Its citizens took the side of Julius Caesar in his struggle with Pompey the Great and were handsomely rewarded after his victory. A colony, settled with veterans of the sixth Legion, was formally established at that time.

The monumental architecture of Arelate, including an amphitheatre, theatre, a triumphal arch, baths, and bridges, reflected its status as the principal city of Gallia Narbonensis. In the 4th century Constantine favored the city (his son, Constantine II, was born there). The western emperors frequently In the 3rd and 4th centuried. the emperors often resided in Arelate to be geographically closer to the ever-contested frontier.

The city had a strong Christian community, led by such distinghished bishops as St Trophime, St Hilary, and Caesarius of Arles. The latter's contentious interactions with the various barbarian kingdoms on behalf of the local population helped to establish the church as the most effective and preemiment Roman institution to suvive to collapse of the political order in the foresaken west.

The mill at Barbegal, 3 km outside of modern Arles, is one of the most impressive feats of Roman engineering to survive. Powered by two aqueducts feeding 16 tiered overshot water wheels, the mill ground 4.5 tons of flour per day.

II.

The town of Saint-Rémy-de-Provence is 17 km from Arles. On its outskirts lie the extensive remains of the wealthy Roman city of Glanum. The two mausoleum and triumphal arch, known locally as "les antiques," testify to the taste and prosperity of the Roman transplants living in southern Gaul. The Mausoleum of the Julii (c. 40 BC), was erected by a wealthy family who had been granted the privilege to use the family name Julius in recognition of three generations of military service to the state, is the best preserved Roman funerary monument. The reliefs of the truncated triumphal arch next to it it depict the participation of Glanum in the subduing of barbarians. Ruins of several large atrium houses survive inside the city. Glanum was abandoned c. AD 260 after it was sacked by the Alemmanni.
