Podcasts about earthly paradise

rWotD Episode 2748: Valinor Welcome to Random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia’s vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Monday, 11 November 2024 is Valinor.Valinor (Quenya: Land of the Valar) or the Blessed Realm is a fictional location in J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium, the home of the immortal Valar on the continent of Aman, far to the west of Middle-earth; he used the name Aman mainly to mean Valinor. It includes Eldamar, the land of the Elves, who as immortals are permitted to live in Valinor.Aman is known as "the Undying Lands", but the land itself does not cause mortals to live forever. However, only immortal beings are generally allowed to reside there. Exceptions are made for the surviving bearers of the One Ring: Bilbo and Frodo Baggins and Sam Gamgee, who dwell there for a time, and the dwarf Gimli.Tolkien's myth of the attempt of Númenor to capture Aman has been likened to the biblical Tower of Babel and the ancient Greek Atlantis, and the resulting destruction in both cases. They note, too, that a mortal's stay in Valinor is only temporary, not conferring immortality, just as, in medieval Christian theology, the Earthly Paradise is only a preparation for the Celestial Paradise that is above.Others have compared the account of the beautiful Elvish part of the Undying Lands to the Middle English poem Pearl, and stated that the closest literary equivalents of Tolkien's descriptions of these lands are the imrama Celtic tales such as those about Saint Brendan from the early Middle Ages. The Christian theme of good and light (from Valinor) opposing evil and dark (from Mordor) has also been discussed.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:44 UTC on Monday, 11 November 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Valinor on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Brian.

The Earthly Paradise was a vibrant symbol at the heart of medieval Christian geographies of the cosmos. As humanity's primal home now lost through the sins of Adam of Eve, the Earthly Paradise figured prominently in Old French tales of lands beyond the mundane world. This study proposes a fresh look at the complex roles played by the Earthly Paradise in three medieval French poems: Marie de France's The Purgatory of St. Patrick, Benedeit's Voyage of Saint Brendan the Abbot, and Guillaume de Lorris's The Romance of the Rose.  By examining the literary, cultural, and artistic components that informed each poem, Spiritual and Material Boundaries in Old French Verse: Contemplating the Walls of the Earthly Paradise (Medieval Institute Publications, 2023) advances the thesis that the exterior walls of the Earthly Paradise served evolving purposes as contemplative objects that implicitly engaged complex notions of economic solidarity and idealized community. These visions of the Earthly Paradise stand to provide a striking contribution to a historically informed response to the contemporary legacies of colonialism and the international refugee crisis. Jacob Abell is Assistant Professor of French at Baylor University. His work focuses on ecocriticism, religious studies, and the digital humanities. Becky Straple-Sovers is a medievalist and freelance editor who earned her Ph.D. in English at Western Michigan University in 2021.

Constructed on two sharp cliffs facing each other, and covering a period of more than 1500 years, the Yulin Caves are the twins of the Mogao Caves. It's the only place in Dunhuang, where you can find an interethnic wedding being held in earthly heaven.

Our consideration of Dante's Purgatorio concludes with his remedies for the sins of the flesh, and then moves onto the ascent into the earthly paradise which kicks off the greatest parade in the history of, well, history.This program of mystagogy is hosted by the Adult Faith Programs at Saint Stephen Martyr Church in Chesapeake, Virginia.The music in the introduction and close of this podcast is provided by George Sarah.

Neil van Nostrand has always loved domestic animals, and wildlife and Nature. Growing up on the family farm in southern Ontario during the Second World War, he had ample opportunity to study all three. Adult life took him to the Ontario Agriculture College, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture (agronomy), then a Master of Science in Wildlife Management. In 1958 he moved his small family to Nova Scotia's Annapolis Valley. For 25 years he did management-research on the Province's wild furbearing animals for the then Department of Lands and Forests. Specializing in beavers, he learned valuable insights into population dynamics and the behaviour of mammals under stress in different habitats. These insights apply just as well to our increasingly crowded planet. Following retirement in 1985, he and his present spouse, Erica Garrett, pursued biodynamic organic farming for nine years, raising livestock, winter storage vegetables and many fruits including apples. In 2006 the Atlantic Canadian Organic Network (ACORN) presented Neil with the Gerrit Loo Award in recognition of his contribution to organic agriculture. Neil is still attached to the land, and to his three sons and one daughter, and to their children. His days are filled with walking, running, hunting, fur-trapping, gardening and tending three bee hives. ******************************************************************To listen to all our XZBN shows, with our compliments go to: https://www.spreaker.com/user/xzoneradiotv*** AND NOW ***The ‘X' Zone TV Channel on SimulTV - www.simultv.comThe ‘X' Chronicles Newspaper - www.xchroniclesnewspaper.com ******************************************************************

"[T]he first aim of Dante, in his landscape imagery [in the Earthly Paradise], is to show evidence of this perfect liberty, and of the purity and sinlessness of the new nature, converting pathless ways into happy ones." - John Ruskin   For the first episode back from the summer Rachel is joined by Theology Professor Matthew Rothaus Moser to discuss Dante's Divine Comedy and its themes of nature and Creation. Matthew Rothaus Moser is Theology Professor at Azusa Pacific University. He has a recently published title Love Itself is Understanding: Hans Urs von Balthasar's Theology of the Saints and has a forthcoming title Dante and the Poetic Practice of Theology. To mark the 700th anniversary of Dante's death, in this episode Rachel and Matthew discuss the depictions of nature in The Divine Comedy, in particular the end of Purgatorio where Dante enters Eden. We trace how Dante builds the imagery of forests, trees, rivers and more over the course of the Comedy. We discuss the various themes and theology that Dante is exploring with this imagery, from humanity's current state of exile from the Garden of Earthly Delights, to the power of natural contemplation to turn us towards God, to the ways in which God reveals himself to us through his creation.

In this episode, George explores the historical of the quest to locate the paradise of Eden.

Having moved beyond the obstacle that is pride, we now continue our journey up Mt. Purgatory. To aid our ascent and understanding, Virgil discourses on the nature of love, how we are by nature lovers, and how our love can go awry. That is, how it is that we sin. Before long, though, we get swept along--with Dante and his guide--by a bustling pack of the slothful who are making up for wasted time and lazy love. Ultimately, we make it to Eden, the Earthly Paradise. Here we meet the lady Beatrice; beautiful and stern. This also means that our time with Virgil has come to an end, and before we realize it, he is gone. Beatrice will help us make our final preparations for our launch into Paradise. She brings Dante to the point of true sorrow for his sin, separating himself from all his waywardness. He will again be cleansed in the waters, and is pierced through by the beauty of Beatrice's smile, being as it is a manifestation of God's glory. This is our third and final installment on Dante's "Purgatorio." Our next episode will appear in the Easter season, and fittingly, in Dante's "Paradiso."My companion for this trip is Paul Camacho, who is Associate Director of the Augustinian Institute and Assistant Teaching Professor in the Augustine and Culture Seminar at Villanova University.  He also writes a weekly newsletter, "Will This Be On the Exam?" which is well worth the read. Links:The Purgatorio by Dante, a verse translation by Jean Hollander and Robert HollanderThe Digital Dante from Columbia UniversityLenten Dante Series, No. 1Lenten Dante Series, No. 2Lenten Dante Series, No. 3Lenten Dante Series, No. 4Lenten Dante Series, No. 5www.paulcamacho.com"Will This Be On the Exam?"Support the show (http://patreon.com/curiouscatholicpodcast)

Reflection on Canto 28-33 in Purgatory. A unity of personal and general Revelation with Scripture, and Beatrice.

In the Fifth Terrace we'll meet the penitents for the Vice of Avarice or Greed, as well as the moment of the whole Mountain trembling and the meeting of the transitional figure of the Roman Poet Statius, who was a secret Christian. This symbolizes an important expansion of the figure of Virgil as a guide, and a gradual change towards Beatrice and the nature of the Earthly Paradise and Paradiso itself. Enjoy!

Every religion has a story of creation, of how man & woman became to inhabit & flourish life on Earth, of how a supernatural being, bigger than us, created a Terrestrial Paradise or simply a paradise, the biblical "Garden of God". We never forget certain aspects of this biblical story....Adam and Eve wondering around the garden in the nude due to their innocence, God forbidding Adam & Eve from eating fruit from the "Tree of Knowledge", or how Eve was tempted by a snake to eat an apple, causing a disruption, Adam & Eve's disobedience against God.While scholars and other archaeologists have never been able to find the Garden of Eden, one man , a preacher, thinks he found the "Garden of God", the earthly paradise, full of water & fruit, in the small town of Bristol, Florida. In the 1950s, Elvy Edison Callaway, a Baptist preacher, retired lawyer, and Republican candidate for governor, bought some land he believed to be the Earthly Paradise, and developed it into the "Garden of Eden" park setting off one of the most bizarre theories on the "Garden of Eden".-----FOLLOW ON SOCIAL MEDIA & MORE-----Follow Southern Oddities on Twitter and Instagram, by clicking the links, or by searching @SouthernOddPod.

In this final lecture on Dante's "Purgatorio", we discuss (a) the idyllic and pastoral nature of Eden, its place outside of time, and its connection to Parnassus and the Golden Age of ancient poets; (b) we examine the symbolism underlying the procession of elders, dancing women, griffin, chariot, and trailing men of a divine parade; and (c) we witness an eagle, fox, dragon, seven-headed monster, prostitute, giant, and examine what each of these symbols means as well as saying farewell to Virgil and meeting Beatrice once again. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/support

The last 6 cantos describes the dramatic events in the Garden of Eden, where Dante meets Beatrice and is finally cleansed after a deep confession. He is then fully restored, and ready for the stars. This also concludes the second book, the Purgatory. .. Programming note; after the Easter Holidays and some travels - we'll be back in Early May!

As they go through the remaining six terraces of punishments and atonement on Mount Purgatory, Dante learns the final parts of human nature and its moral structures. He is then ready to enter the Garden of Eden on the top, the Earthly Paradise - as Lord of Himself - and he can now follow his instinct for pleasure, knowing well the nature and consequences of the sins. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

In this lecture, we consider (a) the four questions Dante puts to Adam, the first man, (b) the connections between Dante's time in heaven (6-7 hours) and Adam's time in Earthly Paradise (6-7) hours and how the language of man and man himself is like "leaves on a tree" ever changing (falling); and (c) the reasons of Peter's anger against the church (1) the misuse of the papal seat, and (2) divisiveness. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/alexander-schmid9/support

Uninhabited houses in a small town in Italy are being sold for €1. The town, called Sambuca, is known for its picturesque landscape. It features a view of the volcano Mount Etna, a number of hiking trails, and vast vineyards [VIN-yerds]. Because of its beauty, the town was dubbed as an “Earthly Paradise.” Despite its charm, many residents have left the town to look for greener pastures in bigger cities. To lure people into the town, the local government decided to sell houses for a very low price. Once buyers pay the €1-charge, local officials can easily hand the houses over to the buyers. However, the officials noted that the houses need major renovations. If buyers decide to purchase a house, they have to spend at least €15,000 in renovations, and they need to complete the house improvements within three years. Buyers also need to pay a security deposit of €5,000, which will be returned once the renovations are done. Although the cost of refurbishing may seem much, Sambuca Deputy Mayor Giuseppe Cacioppo [juu-SEP-ee kah-CHOH-poh] said that living in an “Earthly Paradise” is worth it. Many people seem to agree since the town has gotten 38,000 inquiries in January. Kathleen Peddicord, founder of Live and Invest Overseas, a website that gives advice to those who want to live and invest abroad, said that life in Sambuca will be very simple and quiet. Hence, she advised buyers to have a plan on how to keep themselves occupied as there will be limited activities to do aside from renovating and gardening.

This lecture deals with Dante’s representation of the Earthly Paradise at the summit of Mount Purgatory. The quest for freedom begun under the aegis of Cato in Purgatory I reaches its denouement at the threshold of Eden, where Virgil proclaims the freedom of the pilgrim’s will (Purgatorio 27). Left with pleasure as his guide, the pilgrim nevertheless falls short of a second Adam in his encounter with Matelda. His lingering susceptibility to earthly delights is underscored at the arrival of Beatrice (Purgatorio 30) whose harsh treatment of the pilgrim is read as a retrospective gloss on the dream of the Siren in Purgatorio 19. By dramatizing his character’s failings within the Earthly Paradise, Dante replaces the paradigm of conversion as a once-for-all event with that of an ongoing process to be continued in Paradise under the guidance of Beatrice.
