QUOTE OF YESTERDAY Sunday, February 26, 2023

"Fairy tales do not give the child his first idea of bogey. What fairy tales give the child is his first clear idea of the possible defeat of bogey. The baby has known the dragon intimately ever since he had an imagination. What the fairy tale provides for him is a St. George to kill the dragon." - G.K. Chesterton, Tremendous Trifles

QUOTE OF YESTERDAY Sunday, February 5, 2023

"Although watching footage and hearing news of these removals—including that of Penn’s statue of George Whitefield—may seem like something new, the practice of desecrating and destroying public monuments is one with a long history, extending back specifically to the Roman world and its practice of damnatio memoriae.

While the phrase damnatio memoriae—a 'condemnation of memory' in Latin—is modern in origin, it captures a broad range of actions posthumously taken by the Romans against former leaders and their reputations. Most prevalent during the Republican and Imperial periods, this tactic generally involved the defacement of all visual depictions and literary records of a condemned individual." - Mati Davis and Sara Chopra, Damnatio Memoriae: On Facing, Not Forgetting, Our Past
