  1. Gregory II — Liber Pontificalis

    The Liber Pontificalis — the Book of the Popes — contains short biographies of the early popes of Rome.

    The entry for Gregory II (Gregorius), pontiff from 715 to 731, recounts in great detail — and without any pretence of impartiality — the conflicts between the Eastern Roman Empire and the Papacy, with repeated attempts at the life of the pope.

  6. Iconoclasm — Paul the Deacon

    Iconoclasm was a religious-cultural conflict within Byzantine society, over whether it was proper and acceptable to worship religious images. The dispute lasted for much of the 700s and 800s.

    An edict from emperor Leo III the Isaurian in 726 brought the conflict to Italy. Pope Gregory II rejected the edict, and widespread riots in Byzantine Italy led to the killing of Exarch Paulus. These upheavals afflicted Venetia too, and they were part of the reason for the election of the first Venetian doge.

  11. Americans, any chance that you could vote for a Dutch protestant or a Calvinist for your next president? I think it'd be really funny if the White House got painted plain white, all the newly added gold stripped off or covered up.

  16. An Aboriginal rock shelter was demolished during construction of a Renewable Energy Zone in NSW and the native bird habitat was cleared
    Iconoclasm: From cultural landscape to rubble

    "The Central West Orana Renewable Energy Zone (REZ) demolished the rock shelter during land clearing...It is the same company that was responsible for the displacement of about 60 native bird hatchlings, left homeless after the felling of trees."

    "The federal environment department investigated the matter and said it found "no evidence of non-compliance" with conditions under it's environment protection and biodiversity conservation act." >>

  30. #cesarchavez #iconography #iconoclasm When we memorialize “great” individuals by naming streets, schools & other public spaces after them, we effectively turn them into god-like people. I’ve never been comfortable with that concept. What do we do when we suddenly discover that a particular social icon was, in fact, a very flawed human? Do we simply scrub the name away and hope that eliminates the embarrassment? I hope not. What we should do is teach a balanced history, one where we acknowledge achievement, but do not shy away from teaching personal failures.

    As an aside, I noticed that no one rushed to scrub the name of Thomas Jefferson after we learned about his non-consensual relationship with his slave.

  41. A quotation from Orwell

    Back in the nineteen-hundreds it was a wonderful experience for a boy to discover H. G. Wells. There you were, in a world of pedants, clergymen and golfers, with your future employers exhorting you to “get on or get out”, your parents systematically warping your sexual life, and your dull-witted schoolmasters sniggering over their Latin tags; and here was this wonderful man who could tell you about the inhabitants of the planets and the bottom of the sea, and who knew that the future was not going to be what respectable people imagined.

    George Orwell (1903-1950) English writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
    Essay (1941-08), “Wells, Hitler, and the World State,” Horizon

  46. Aboriginal cultural heritage site: The kuyang - A giant 300 metre eel arrangement

    "All it is is rocks in a paddock," Mr McMaster (farmer)

    "Adrian McMaster allegedly used an excavator to remove rocks from an ancient stone arrangement resembling an eel on his Lake Bolac property, between Ballarat and Dunkeld, in 2021. I was moving the stones so I could get the [weed sprayer] in there," the 65-year-old told Ballarat Magistrates Court."
