http://mightykarlsons.blogspot.com/2008/02/more-photo.html

I was born on Jupiter! Friday, February 08, 2008. Depicting Rome, pt. 1. The Tiber as seen from the Ponte Principe Amadeo- this sideways problem is tricky. All I can say is that portrait-oriented photos don't get sidewaysed in Preview, or in iPhoto. Computer friends, help! The interior dome of the Pantheon. The Sacristy in Santa Maria sopra Minerva. Sundown in the Roman Forum. Detail of the Triumphal Arch of Titus. I have no idea how they did that. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Infinite Driveway (i...

The Hunan Scooter: Depicting Rome, pt. 5

http://mightykarlsons.blogspot.com/2008/02/lovely.html

I was born on Jupiter! Thursday, February 07, 2008. Depicting Rome, pt. 5. We got a late start on the morning of January 6th, and as we approached St. Peter's Square from the apartment Mom and Dad had rented we heard marching band music and noticed a large number of people bustling towards the square with us. Whoops! It was Epiphany, the culmination of the Christmas holiday, and we were arriving at the square with just enough time to soak in the scene before Pope Benedict gave his Epiphany address! We we...

I was born on Jupiter! Friday, February 08, 2008. Prayer Lives of Starlings. I am taking a class this semester about the teaching and theology of Dr. Howard Thurman. It is taught by Dr. Dorsey Blake, who in addition to his work at Starr King is the pastor of Dr. Thurman's Church for the Fellowship of All Peoples. And the trees on the North side of Piazza Venezia (to the right in the image below). Engaged in some kind of territoriality exercise? Just blowing off steam? At the end of the following video yo...

The Hunan Scooter: Teaching Moment

http://mightykarlsons.blogspot.com/2008/02/teaching-moment.html

I was born on Jupiter! Thursday, February 07, 2008. One night, walking with Gabriella and Cathy from the seminary to the Casa Valdese. The talk turned to the relationship of the students to the teachers of the class. Gabriella had heard through the grapevine that some of the students were complaining about the accents of some of the guest and Italian teachers, and that the lectures were hard to understand and follow. I was expecting .fireworks? Bottled frustration to be vented? The moment quickly ended, ...

The Hunan Scooter: Family and Gender in Ancient Rome

http://mightykarlsons.blogspot.com/2008/02/family-and-gender-in-ancient-rome.html

I was born on Jupiter! Friday, February 08, 2008. Family and Gender in Ancient Rome. Prof Lipsett is interested in studies of gender formation among non-elites as well as elites, those people about whom we know much less because they did not have the resources or clout to commemorate and study themselves, generally speaking. To examine theology in terms of embodied social relations is a partial goal of Prof. Lipsett's session, and with this overreaching goal in mind we examined four excerpted texts.

The Hunan Scooter: Reading Backwards

http://mightykarlsons.blogspot.com/2008/02/reading-backwards.html

I was born on Jupiter! Friday, February 08, 2008. So in the posts below I hope you will get a sense of the class, Rome: A Crossroad of Religion. Brilliant graffiti near the Roman Forum- just imagine it not-sideways. Since I'm pretty low-tech, generally speaking, this blog reads in somewhat reverse order. The first thing I wrote was an overview and introduction to the class, so if you read this in typical internet fashion it will be the last thing you read. Here is a link to jump down to that post,.

http://mightykarlsons.blogspot.com/2008/02/photos.html

I was born on Jupiter! Friday, February 08, 2008. Depicting Rome, pt. 2. Ruins of a Christian church built into the ruins of an ancient Insula (apartment block) in the Southwest hillside of the Capitoline. Rome, where even the new ruins are three times older than my country. Flower shop at night. It seems to me that the fellow on the right has had his fill of tourist taking snapshots. I think this is some really great counter-grafitti. The interior of Santa Maria in Trastevere. News from Mark Evanier.
