Liam Mc Cormick Architecture
Liam McCormick was an Irish architect born in 1916 who is renowned for his modernist church designs in Donegal, particularly St. Aengus' Church in Burt. The church uses circular geometry inspired by a nearby Bronze Age fort, with interior and exterior rings to house facilities in the crescent-shaped space between. Natural light illuminates the altar through an oculus in the tower above, symbolizing God's light. McCormick's innovative and metaphor-rich design for St. Aengus' Church cemented his reputation as one of Ireland's most influential 20th century architects.
Turkey
The document provides details about various locations visited in Istanbul, Turkey, including the Blue Mosque, Topkapi Palace, Hagia Sophia, and the Basilica Cistern. It also mentions the Greek artifact collection at the Archaeology Museum and sights in Gallipoli commemorating World War I. The writer expresses uncertainty about an alleged coffin of Alexander the Great and feelings of conflict around observing Sufi worship.
San Francisco Palace of Fine Arts
The Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco continues a tradition of circular temple architecture that can be traced back to ancient Greece. Specifically, it emulates the tholos, a circular structure with a ring of columns surrounding a domed roof. While originally intended to gradually fall into ruin to symbolize the impermanence of human achievement, the Palace instead crumbled in an unsightly way. In the 1960s it was completely rebuilt using more permanent materials while striving to accurately recreate the original design, ensuring its legacy would continue for generations.

In 1959, the site was taken into state care and partially excavated in 1962, uncovering remnants of earlier buildings and a long-cist cemetery. Ongoing conservation work is being performed to preserve the structures. The author encourages visitors to see the peaceful ruins for themselves.

The building of these churches marked the beginning of Christianity in Norway, a period of transformation from the pagan Viking to the Christian Norwegian.

Standing in front of a stavkirke, one cannot but admire the beauty of these buildings and the ingenuity of the people who created such grandiose soaring wooden structures.

Temple zeus.pdf
The Temple of Zeus, one of the most iconic structures in ancient Greek architecture, stood as a testament to the grandeur and power of the king of the Olympian gods. Located in Olympia, Greece, this monumental temple was dedicated to Zeus, the supreme deity in Greek mythology. Built over several centuries, the temple reached its zenith in the 5th century BCE, during the golden age of classical Greece.
The Temple of Zeus was an architectural marvel, featuring colossal Doric columns that soared to a height of over 40 feet. The intricate details of the temple showcased the skill and craftsmanship of ancient Greek builders, with sculpted friezes and metopes depicting mythical stories and heroic deeds. The centerpiece of the temple was a colossal gold and ivory statue of Zeus, crafted by the renowned sculptor Phidias. The statue, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, depicted Zeus enthroned and exuded a divine aura that left spectators in awe.
The temple served as the focal point of the ancient Olympic Games, a quadrennial event dedicated to Zeus. Athletes, politicians, and philosophers gathered in the sanctuary to honor the god and celebrate the ideals of physical prowess and intellectual achievement. Despite suffering damage over the centuries from earthquakes and invasions, the Temple of Zeus retained its significance until its ultimate destruction in the 5th century CE.
Today, the remnants of the Temple of Zeus stand as a poignant reminder of the cultural and religious significance of ancient Greece, a testament to the enduring legacy of a civilization that laid the foundations for Western thought and architecture.

It was subsequently restored by German archaeologists to its present state, which is now intact enough to show the basic form of the Temple of Demeter at Sangri. It is one of the few known temples with a square floor plan. History of the Temple of Demeter The Temple of Demeter was built in the 6th century BC. The temple was partially dismantled in the 6th century AD when a church was built over it. In later centuries the site was abandoned and plundered for its marble. What to See at the Temple of Olympian Zeus The graceful ruins of the Temple of the Olympian Zeus can be clearly seen from the Acropolis and are floodlit at night. The temple is made of fine marble brought from Mount Pentelus and originally measured 96 meters long and 40 meters wide. Hadrian had erected a giant gold and ivory status of Zeus in the cella, and placed an equally large one of him next to it. Unfortunately, however, nothing remains of these or anything else from the interior of the temple.
