PROSERPINA


Mythology "says Sallust (86-34 BC) "These things do not ever occurred, but they are always"

The mythological world is very charming and picturesque, with its divine and human heroes, strong or weak as invincible creatures more common. In the previous post I mentioned
Proserpina: his legend wants to be the explanation of the alternation of the seasons.

According to legend, Ceres (Demeter to the Greeks) daughter of Cronus and Rhea, and sister of Jupiter, father of union with Zeus, Persephone (Persephone or Core from the greek = girl), and lived quietly with her in Sicily. Persephone was a beautiful girl.
One day, while she was picking flowers near Mount Ales, was spotted by Pluto (Hades) god of hell, which he loved and kidnapped her leading her to his kingdom of hell. Demeter
not seeing his daughter back to despair and began to look everywhere.
This search lasted for years. One day the goddess came to Eleusis, a small town near Athens and decided to rest for a while ': disguised as an old woman came to the king Cele. The queen, Metanira, needed a nurse to the son Demofoonte: so Demeter agreed to perform the duties of nurse, also believes that caring for a child, would have lessened the pain of the loss of her only daughter. It was at Eleusis was news that the goddess Persephone, a shepherd boy had witnessed the girl's scomparizione; disse che un uomo alto che guidava un carro d'oro tirato da cavalli neri, l'aveva afferrata ed era scomparso con lei in una voragine che si era aperta sul lato di una montagna.
Cerere, felice di sapere che la figlia era ancora viva, si adirò per l'inganno subito, inganno perpetrato da Plutone e, probabilmente con il consenso di Giove.
Allora lasciò Eleusi e riprese il suo vagabondare per il mondo rifiutandosi di rendere fruttuosa la terra.
L'umanità, per tutto il girovagare di Cerere, patì la mancanza di cibo e anche gli dei non ricevevano più i sacrifici e i doni usuali.
Così intervenne Giove: inviò Mercurio da Plutone per chiedere che Proserpina fosse liberata.
Il re degli inferi accettò only if the girl had never touched food throughout the period of his stay.
Proserpina said that, knowing that the food was afforded it every day of the dead, the bitter taste of ashes, had always rejected: as Mercury took it away from there and led her back to her mother. As soon as
Ceres could hug her daughter, the world was reborn: the winter was gone and leaves the place in the spring.
Meanwhile Pluto came to know that in fact the demon Ascalafo Proserpine, in hiding, had eaten some pomegranate seeds: furious demands the immediate return of Proserpine. Having
Ceres threatened that if her daughter had been taken away again, he would made the earth barren, Jupiter came to a compromise: Persephone would have been for nine months with the mother and the other three at the side of her husband.
Ceres did not give up completely: when her daughter came down to the underworld, the trees are stripped and all the earth became barren and cold on his return to earth was again everything's coming up and a riot of colors.

Thus, in ancient times, the men explained the changing seasons.

THE MYTH OF THE SYMBOLS IN 'ART



Sometimes we stop to look at a painting of a still life, and we do not think anything like that behind every piece of fruit or flower is hiding a symbol.

Even animals and plants in general, combined with character, take on special meanings.
I thought I would mention the most common symbols used in art, this is only my analysis with accompanying images of works more or less famous, and helping with various texts of art that I own.
The pomegranate.
The legend tells us that the pomegranate was born from the blood Bacchus, who was killed by the Titans and revived by Rhea, the mother of Jupiter.
It is precisely due to this myth that in the Middle Ages, the pomegranate is depicted in the hands of the Child Jesus, signifies the rebirth of life .
If it is painted in the hands of the Madonna, alludes to virginity : This meaning seems to derive from the verses "Your shoots are an orchard of pomegranates, with the most delicious fruits" that are read in the Song of Songs.
The fruit is also linked to the myth of Persephone, abducted by Pluto, which leads into the realm of the dead: in fact it is said that Persephone eats the purple beans while he is in Hades, as in the desire to return to life, but in reality it is condemned.
can be found still lifes with dinner tables where the pomegranate signifies the prosperity , fertility and good fortune .
The Iconology of the Cavalier Cesare Ripa (XVI century) sees the allegory of the conversation with the pomegranate in his hand which is the 'union el' friendship, or the Concord always holding a pomegranate, a sign of good agreement .
Another example of the significance of concord as pomegranate, is provided by Durer depicting Emperor Maximilian I with the pomegranate in his hand: the skin contains numerous grains and wants indicate 'union of many under a single authority.

The language of symbols in art is, in my opinion a very fascinating subject, and I hope I have piqued the interest of those who want to read it.

My color

When he starts a story? Typically beginning. Sometimes, though, is the end of a story that makes another start. So there are two categories of stories, those that start from the beginning and the beginning of the end. There are two categories of women, those who tell their story and those who do not tell, then there is a third, those that do not tell it right. Miss Color ...

not only tells the right, but tells it from the middle. The truth lies somewhere in between the rest and she does not like to say too much.
If you can see, on a sunny day, a woman of a certain age sitting at the best bar in the square, wearing a black dress black, pure black jacket and Coco Chanel shoulder bag attached to the chair, you can not miss it, it's her. But if you sit at the next table and, for education, gives her a smile, surely begin to tell you the color of ruby \u200b\u200bred lips, how life was beautiful in his time. And this will be the proof that she is.
jingling pendants gold bracelet coarse, in a few minutes, you will know that it is again young lady since she became a widow of an executive of a multinational that she had everything in life, including two children graduate with the highest marks they have taken a great career and has also made a grandmother of a beautiful girl, what you see advertising of baby food. It is just that little chubby on the glossy magazine that, by chance, in front, next to the jar with the rose.
But do not be fooled.
If you can see, in a rainy day, a woman of a certain age sitting in the smallest bar in the square, wearing a shapeless long skirt, a pair of old shoes, with his eyes wandering on the wall of the wall, but her lips colored bright red, you can not miss. It 's you. Whether the person, for education, a smile while drinking a coffee and she does not respond immediately, it will be proof that she is. It will bring the usual
bracelet that will tinkle in the same way when it's sunny, only that the young lady, as they call the old neighborhood still suffers from meteoropathy and so if the weather is bad, and barely breathing, will tell you to be back lady since her husband died poor and especially the year in which his sons are gone from home to live in another city with women che non hanno rispetto della famiglia e che le portano la nipotina, bella sempre, solamente a Natale.
Però la verità sta nel mezzo o forse neppure e la signorina non si è mai sposata. Per saperlo dovrete avere la fortuna di incontrarla in un giorno in cui il sole fa capolino tra le nubi e lei cammina, con la sua bocca rosso vermiglio, per la piazza, indecisa in quale bar fermarsi mentre, tra sé e sé, facendo tintinnare il braccialetto, si chiede se la scelta sarà intonata alla giornata. E forse, ripeto, forse, conoscerete la verità.
