  • This high-energy river comes winding down through the forest from Rim Lake, on the Traveller Range in the central highlands of Tasmania. A lone Pandanus, (Richea pandanifolia), stands sentinel on the moss-covered rocks. Strangely enough, it marked the upstream limit I could travel along the riverbank: just above this site the forest became so scrubby and interwoven that it was impossible to move through it.

From this temple Hermias of Atarneus, a student of Plato, ruled Assos, the Troad and Lesbos for a period of time, under which the city experienced its greatest prosperity. (Strangely, Hermias was actually the slave of the ruler of Atarneus*.) Under his rule, he encouraged philosophers to move to the city. As part of this, in 348 BC Aristotle came here and married King Hermeias’s niece, Pythia, before leaving to Lesbos three years later in 345 BC. This ‘golden period’ of Assos ended several years later when the Persians arrived, and subsequently tortured Hermias to death. The Persians were driven out by Alexander the Great in 334 BCE. Between 241 and 133 BC, the city was ruled by the Kings of Pergamon. However, in 133 BC, the Pergamons lost control of the city as it was absorbed by the Roman empire. St. Paul also visited the city during his third missionary journey through Asia Minor, which was between 53-57 AD, on his way to Lesbos. From this period onwards, Assos shrunk to a small village, as it has remained ever since. Ruins around Assos continue to be excavated.

The smoke came all around us. / It’s strait from the camera. The redness is because the sun was setting and it made the smoke this color. A LARGER view to see more in detail… / (Long side is only 1024 here, and as with border) On The Calender Page / / History for Mount IDA Trojan War / The mountain is the scene of several mythic events in the works of Homer. At its summit, the Olympian gods gathered to watch the progress of the epic fight. But the mountain was the sacred place of the Goddess, and Hera’s powers were so magnified on Mount Ida, that she was able to distract Zeus with her seductions, just long enough to permit the climactic taking of Troy. During the Trojan War, in an episode recorded in Apollodorus’s Epitome, Achilles with some of the Achaean chiefs laid waste the countryside, and made his way to Ida to rustle the cattle of Aeneas. But Aeneas fled, and Achilles killed the cowherds and Nestor, son of Priam, and drove away the sacred kine (Epitome 3.32). Achilles briefly refers to this incident as he prepares to duel with Aeneas during the siege of Troy. (Iliad XX) After the Trojan War, the only surviving son of Priam, Helenus, retired to Mount Ida, where he was surprised and became the captive of Neoptolemus.

  • Underwater men will walk, will ride, will sleep, will talk. Words by Mother Shipton, a 15th -Century Prophetess.

  • In a solitude of the sea / Deep from human vanity, / And the Pride of Life that planned her, stilly couches she. Steel chambers, late the pyres / Of her salamandrine fires, / Cold currents thrid, and turn to rhythmic tidal lyres. Over the mirrors meant / To glass the opulent / The sea-worm crawls—grotesque, slimed, dumb, indifferent. Jewels in joy designed / To ravish the sensuous mind / Lie lightless, all their sparkles bleared and black and blind. Dim moon-eyed fishes near / Gaze at the gilded gear / And query: “What does this vaingloriousness down here?”. . . Well: while was fashioning / This creature of cleaving wing, / The Immanent Will that stirs and urges everything Prepared a sinister mate / For her - so gaily great - / A Shape of Ice, for the time fat and dissociate. And as the smart ship grew / In stature, grace, and hue / In shadowy silent distance grew the Iceberg too. Alien they seemed to be: / No mortal eye could see / The intimate welding of their later history. Or sign that they were bent / By paths coincident / On being anon twin halves of one August event, Till the Spinner of the Years / Said “Now!” And each one hears, / And consummation comes, and jars two hemispheres. Poem by Thomas Hardy In memory of them all Music – Titanic / James Horner – Hymn To The Sea Painting in acrylics 25th December 2008

  • Fly upon imaginary wings / Over every dark and windswept storm. / Rise above all turbulence and harm / To where the white-robed angels praises sing, / Yearning for eternal peace and joy. Even as the winds your worlds destroy, / In you there is an alien voice, and calm, / Giving forth the word that rapture brings: / Holy, holy is all life and death! / There is a paradise within each breath. Words by Nicholas Gordon
