architect (W3)

Der engl. "architect" geht zurück auf lat. "architectus", griech. "arkhitektn" und setzt sich zusammen aus "arkhi-", "archi-" = "erst", "oberst", "Haupt-", "Erz-", aber auch "schlimmst", "Riesen-" und "tékton" = "Erbauer", "Baumeister".

Gemeinsam mit vielen anderen Wörtern geht engl. "architect" auf eine ide. Wurzel "*teks-" = "weben", "wirken" zurück.

architecture (W3)

Engl. "Architect" ist der Oberzimmermann. Er ist zusammengezimmert aus griech. "arch(i)" = "Ober", "Haupt" (vgl. "Erzbischof") und griech. "tekton" = "Zimmermann", "Handwerker".

Und engl. "architecture" ist die "hohe Kunst des Bauens".

colossal, colossic, Colossus (W3)

Die Herkunft von engl. "colossal", "colossic", "Colossus" läßt über zurückverfolgen über frz. "colossal", "colosse" und lat. "colossus" zu griech. "kolossos". Danach verlieren sich seine Spuren. Vielleicht wurde es von den Ägyptern in Zusammenhang mit deren Statuen übernommen.

1712 ("colossic" in the same sense is recorded from 1607), from Fr. "colossal", from "colosse", from L. "colossus", from Gk. "kolossos", of unknown origin, used by Herodotus of giant Egyptian statues, and used by Romans of the bronze Apollo at the entrance to the harbor of Rhodes.

"Colossus" is from 1398; generalized sense of "anything awesomely vast" is from 1794.

"Gargoyle" als Farbe: - #49423d - Dark Gray


Das engl. "Gargoyle" bezeichnet "Wasserspeier", wie man sie im Mittelalter gerne an Kirchen anbrachte um Wasser und böse Geister abzuwehren.

Im übertragenen Sinn wird "Gargoyle" auch als "Scheusal" übersetzt.

Sprachlich taucht "Gargoyle" im 13. Jh. auf. Und vermutlich ist es ein Wort mit lautmalerischem Ursprung. Es geht jedenfalls direkt zurück auf frz. "gargouille" = "Wasserspeier", "Hals" und frz. "gargouiller", das wie dt. "gurgeln" und engl. "gargle" wohl das Geräusch des Wassers nachahmte.

Verwandt damit sind natürlich auch dt. "Gurgel", die auf lat. "gurgulio" zurück geht.

This site is a companion to an exhibit about the admiration by Victorians of the Gothic style of architectural decoration of cathedrals, which featured gargoyles ("decorative waterspouts that preserve stonework") and grotesques (that "serve a variety of other practical and ornamental functions, as corbels or capitals, for instance"). Includes a gallery of images and a glossary. From the Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections, Cornell University Library.

The word "gargoyle" comes down from the Old French: "gargouille", meaning "throat" or "gullet". This is also the origin of the word "gargle". The word describes the sound produced as water passes the throat and mixes with air. In early architecture, "gargoyles" were decorative creatures on the drains of cathedrals.

GARGOYLE, n. A rain-spout projecting from the eaves of mediaeval buildings, commonly fashioned into a grotesque caricature of some personal enemy of the architect or owner of the building. This was especially the case in churches and ecclesiastical structures generally, in which the gargoyles presented a perfect rogues' gallery of local heretics and controversialists. Sometimes when a new dean and chapter were installed the old gargoyles were removed and others substituted having a closer relation to the private animosities of the new incumbents.

The term "gargoyle" was derived from French gargouille meaning "throat" and Latin "gurgulio" meaning "gullet". (Encyclopedia Britannica, p. 307/"gargoyle") An explanation for the use with the protruding architectural means could be, although more charming than credible, the following legend: A dragon called La Gargouille lived in a cave close to the River Seine in France. It swallowed ships, caused destruction with its fiery breath, and spouted so much water that it caused flooding. The residents of nearby Rouen attempted to placate La Gargouille with an annual offering of a live victim; although the dragon preferred maidens, it was usually given a criminal to consume. Around the year 600, the priest Romanus (or Romain) arrived in Rouen and promised to deal with the dragon if the townspeople agreed to be baptized and to build a church. Equipped with everything needed for an exorcism, Romanus subdued the dragon by making the sign of the cross. La Gargouille was burned at the stake, but the head and neck, well tempered by the heat of the dragon's fiery breath, would not burn. These remnants were mounted on the town wall and became the model for gargoyles for centuries to come. (Online Source 6)

Building-Glossary

(E?)(L1) http://www.lookingatbuildings.org.uk/
Understanding and enjoyment of buildings is often made more complicated and difficult because of the complex vocabulary needed to interpret the language of architecture.

The glossary is a searchable database of architectural terms and styles designed to assist understanding both of terms used in the pages of the site and for recognising the individual elements of a building. Many of the terms are supported by drawings (specially commissioned for the Pevsner Architectural Guides) or photographs to explain the term and its place within the composition of a complex structure. As the site expands we hope to add photographs to illustrate each and every term in the glossary. You may consult the glossary at any time during your visit by using the Glossary search facility on every page of the site. Alternatively you can make a general search of the Glossary by using the terms in the drop-down menu. The Glossary also includes definitions for most of the principal styles and phases of British architecture. These terms are also featured on the interactive timeline.

Monastery
-terion- (W3)

Engl. "Monastery" (15. Jh.) geht über altfrz. "monastere" zurück auf lat. "monasterium" und griech. "monasterion". Zu Grunde liegt griech. "monazein" = dt. "allein leben", griech. "monos" = dt. "allein". Der Suffix "-terion-" steht für "Platz an dem (etwas getan wird)".


Tatev monastery was one of the main cultural and spiritual centers of medieval Armenia for many centuries. Located at the edge of a steep incline, it was also a fortress and a shelter where local people used to hide from the enemies. Today it is an open air museum with a breathtaking view at the surrounding rocks and gorges. Enjoy the magnificence of Tatev Monastery and its breathtaking surroundings through a virtual visit!

The Kiev Pechersk Lavra is also known as the Kiev Cave Monastery. Its underground catacombs and corridors are among the Lavra’s main attractions. It’s also famous as a site where the relics of many Orthodox saints are buried, and some of them are believed to have performed miracles. Stay tuned for a 3D model of the magical Kiev Pechersk Lavra!

The New Jerusalem Resurrection (Voskresenskiy) Monastery, or New Jerusalem, was intended to become a reflection of Jerusalem in Palestine and a center of the Orthodox world. This was impossible due to the Soviet Government and the Second World War. However, in 1995 the monastery was reborn.

Frigolet Abbey France

The OED etymology for "monastery" includes "...Byzantine Greek, "monasthrion" [h=eta] "monastery" (4th cent.)...." But the Greek "monasterion" appears much earlier than that, in Philo of Alexandria, De Vita Contemplativa, 25 and 30. Philo lived from about 20 BC to about 50 AD.

    The National Trust was founded in 1895 by three Victorian philanthropists - Miss Octavia Hill, Sir Robert Hunter and Canon Hardwicke Rawnsley. Concerned about the impact of uncontrolled development and industrialisation, they set up the Trust to act as a guardian for the nation in the acquisition and protection of threatened coastline, countryside and buildings.

    Wherever you are in England, Wales or Northern Ireland you are never far from several National Trust properties. We care for over 248,000 hectares (612,000 acres) of beautiful countryside and welcome visitors to over 300 historic buildings and gardens.

    parachute dome (W3)

    Ich dachte eigentlich alle Kuppeln haben Ähnlichkeit mit einem Fallschirm. Aber die Architekten machen da anscheinend feine Unterschiede, wie etwa sichtbare Rippen, wie sie durch die Haltebänder bei Fallschirmen entstehen.

    window (W1)

    "Window", das "Windauge".

    (E?)(L?) http://www.exploratorium.edu/exploring/language/word_histories.html

    ...
    Look up the word "window". You'll find that it comes from the Middle English (ME) "windowe", which came from the Old Norse (ON) "vindauga", which itself was formed from the two Old Norse words "vindr", which meant "wind," and "auga", which meant "eye." So "window" once meant "wind-eye", a poetic description appropriately suggesting a window's function of letting in both air and light.

    Windauge. Achtundachtzig Augenblicke. Fotografien 1966-1999.
    Von Michael Ruetz. Göttingen 2001.

    (R) 25,5 x 29,5 cm, 120 S., 88 Bildtafeln, davon 40 in Farbe, Halbleinen.

    Über diesen Artikel

    Achtundachtzigmal ein "Fenster" (oder "Windauge") - überraschende Blicke, Denkanlässe, Konstellationen des Augenblicks. Fenster von Wohnhäusern, Schaufenster, Windschutzscheiben, Fernsehgeräte als »Fenster zur Welt«, Augen, die ja in gewisser Weise Fenstern ähnlich sind, - Michael Ruetz legt den Begriff großzügig aus. Er fotografiert hinein und hinaus, zeigt Ausschnitte der Welt, wie man sie wahrnehmen kann, wie sie sich spiegeln. Die Fotografien sind nur datiert, mehr Kommentars bedarf es nicht, denn alle Aufnahmen sind voller dichter Information. »Das Auge spricht«, sagt Michael Ruetz dazu. Mit einem Essay von Klaus Honnef. Längst vergriffen, bei uns jetzt kurzzeitig erhältlich!
