<div style="text-align: justify;">
Friday night, 9:30 P.M., lounging in our pajamas, parties going on in Grafton Street, which our hotel room overlooks. Our window is open to let in the fresh night air.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the distance, the sound of pipes: they become louder with each moment, with clapping and laughter, too. We look out the window to see a piper – one solitary man in a kilt – walking up Grafton piping away on his bagpipes, as a crowd follows him clapping and dancing in the street. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And then the stirring music recedes as quickly and surprisingly as it had arrived.</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
+++++</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Boston: we change from the large jet that brought us from Atlanta, to a small prop plane headed to Halifax. Wafting through the air from the seat behind us – chips. Someone has brought aboard a bag of chips to tide them over from Boston to Halifax, a sure sign we’re going to the Maritimes.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
+++++</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Daily as we walk past the old library on Spring Garden Road, the smell of chips everywhere in the air from a chip wagon parked outside the building. People sitting on the stone wall around the library and the chip wagon happily eating their chips.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
+++++</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Along Spring Garden Road, chest-high planters of pansies in front of shops, releasing the sweet fragrance of spring flowers into the air. Further along, the sharp, clean smell of planters of lavender on the sidewalk in front of a shop.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Afterwards, since our attempt to make reservations for a meal at a restaurant near the hotel had fallen through, we walked to the old Jewish Ghetto, where I'd read many restaurants are open on Christmas day. Sure enough, there were many choices, all interesting looking, many featuring traditional Roman-Jewish cuisine, others offering pan-Middle Eastern falafels, kebabs, etc. We chose a restaurant we later decided was overpriced--Taverna del Ghetto--where Steve had lamb and I had a soup described as a soup of meatballs and cauliflower, which had a single tiny meatball in a tomato broth with broccoli and pasta. Steve found his three small pieces of lamb all gristle and bone.</div>

Day four: another long walk to Maria Maggiore, St. John Lateran, San Clemente, and the Coliseum and Forum. Again, we stopped at any church that was open to see and photograph the presepio. One in a Redemptorist church along the way was especially impressive, with a rustic setting and rustic figurines dressed in peasant clothing.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I found both Maria Maggiore and the Lateran frankly overwhelming, swarming with tourists and, in the case of the Lateran church, full of worshipers at an Eastern-rite liturgy, possibly Ukranian, with a gaggle of sumptuously dressed priests far removed from the worshipers, both physically removed and hidden by large columns.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
San Clemente was another story altogether--quiet, reverent, intimate, and dark, though I'd gladly have forgone the congeries of ill-behaved French children whose parents did nothing to encourage them to let other visitors see the sights they were hogging.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The mosaics were stunning, and it was a real treat to see them "in the flesh" after having seen them in art history books for many years.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The small courtyard outside the church gave us a feel for the culture of pre-grandiose Roman Christianity in which people refreshed themselves at a fountain before they entered the church. As Barbara P. told us on the tour of the Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter's, the custom of blessing oneself with holy water on entering a church is rooted in the practice of Greek and Roman temples and shrines, where fountains were provided outside the holy places for worshipers to wash and refresh themselves before they went inside.</div>

We had wanted, too, to visit St. Peter in Chains, but it was a miserable day, with periods of cold rain and gusty wind, and I was exhausted as we neared the church, and afraid that the combination of wind, rain, and sweat from the walk would cause our chest colds to become worse, so back we came.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And then today a nice, more leisurely walk to the Borghese in the sunny, mild weather that followed the bluster of yesterday, and the Berninis and Caravaggios and fragments of mosaic floors, all intensely beautiful . . . . </div>

Day two, Christmas eve, we took a <i>long</i> see-Rome-on-foot walk from our hotel, the Modigliani on Via della Purificazione near the Pantheon, to all sorts of places: the Pantheon, Trevi fountain, Piazza Navona and the four rivers fountain, Campo de Fiori, Piazza Colonna with its famous column, and more churches than one could shake a stick at.</div>

Impressions: the majesty (and welcome <i>emptiness</i>) of the Pantheon, where Steve succeeded in getting a spectacular shot of the sun crowning the dome at noontime. As he pointed out, the nearness of the winter solstice caused the light to be at its lowest angle at midday, causing the light to cast the least angle inside the dome that's geometrically possible, and his photo captures this. </div>
</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I found the Piazza Navona Christmas marketplace fascinating. We bought, as a remembrance of the day, a small painted ceramic angel from a booth selling presepi items, and Steve got a colorful recycled plastic wallet from a sweet smiling young African man and woman crafting such items out of recycled materials to benefit some good cause. We also got some delicious hazelnut croquant at a candy booth in the market.</div>

Campo de Fiori: wonderful to visit, a feast for the eyes with its displays of lemons, oranges, peppers, greens, and flowers. We got lemons from a crusty old woman who appeared enraged when we couldn't understand her, and who threw plastic bags at us, muttering something about Mussolini. The point may have been that she wanted to pick the lemons for us, but we didn't understand this. Her son found the whole scene amusing and stood by laughing, then sold us three lemons, whose juice has felt wonderful on my sore throat, mixed with honey and hot mint tea.</div>

In the Gesu church, propositioned by two hookers who purported to be Spanish women, and who wanted to know what our plans were for the evening and if we had a hotel room. We encountered them at a huge mirror in the back of the church, set up to allow one to see the details on the ceiling. I suppose that by looking into the mirror as they peered into it, I somehow communicated that I might be interested in renting a Spanish (?) woman for the night.</div>

After a rest in our hotel room (sans hookers) following that long walk, which also included tours of San Ignazio and Santa Maria sopra Minerva, we then took an evening walk to the Capitoline Hill and Santa Maria in Aracoeli, where we'd been told there might be Christmas eve candles lining the many steps leading to the church.</div>

Waiting to get into the Borghese in Rome, I see a very nice-appearing man assisting an elderly woman down the steps. They've just toured the gallery. I think he's gay, and she's his mother.<br />

As I watch them, I think of the lie that gay men hate women. Who in our society gives more loving care to elderly women than gay men--as their hairdressers, their priests and spiritual confidants, as the "unmarried" son expected to provide care for the mother in her old age?</div>

We're packing now to go home and I should capture some impressions of Rome. I've avoiding doing so up to now because we've been continuously on the go. And it's <i>overwhelming</i>. And the longer I don't write anything here about our time in Rome, the more I dread taking up the task.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Impressions--<i>mere</i> impressions: day one, we tour the Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter's, with a young, attractive art historian recommended by Chuck F.--Barbara P.--as our tour guide. She arrives sporting a nimbus of curly reddish-blond hair, wearing fashionable leather boots and jeans.</div>

Ciao, ciao. Double kisses for both of us. She's <i>good</i> at what she does. Using a new computer guide screen the museum has set up to prep people for the Sistine Chapel, where talking is now forbidden (at least officially), she walks us through each painting in the panel, providing illuminating commentary and telling interesting stories about Michelangelo, his rivals (especially Raphael), and popes and cardinals with whom he interacted.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One fascinating tidbit: the sort of nimbus or mantel around God as he creates Adam--the rich deep purple-red shape behind God--may be Michelangelo's depiction of a human brain, halved.</div>

I'm struck by the obvious, crystal-clear connections between--the carryovers and outright dependencies on--pre-Christian Graeco-Roman and Egyptian tropes and Catholic ones. It's trite to note this, but it's such a striking experience of the Vatican Museum: tour a room of Greek, Roman, Egyptian "pagan" statues, turn a corner into a new room, and there the very same statues will appear all over again, transformed into the Madonna, angels, saints.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another impression, especially of St. Peter's: the somewhat repulsive need to showcase the hegemonic power of Rome (as in Roman Catholicism) via the resplendence, the power and wealth embodied in jewels, marble, precious metals, papal tombs, sumptuous art work.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm reminded of the unseemly battle between the dominant episcopal sees of the early church--Jerusalem, Antioch, Alexandria, Rome, and Byzantium--and how Helena and Constantine sought to trump Alexandria's claim to supremacy through Mark and Rome's through Peter by producing the Holy Cross: the cross of Christ trumping mere apostles. It's all entirely about power, demonstrated through shock and awe, and is a little sick-making, perhaps especially for someone with a cultural sensibility rooted in the British Isles, which have always been so geographically and culturally far from this trumpery.</div>

The early Celtic church and its monks found God in thin places, in the song of birds, the lapping of sea or lake water on stones, the blue of sky and green of woods--against which the excess of Baroque triumphalism in St. Peter's can seem not only appalling, but when all is said and done, downright silly, as if by topping a rich fruitcake with marzipan followed by ganache followed by whipped cream with a goodly dollop of marmalade on top, one has self-evidently created the world's most compellingly perfect confection.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now having gone there, I understand Luther's reaction to Rome and St. Peter's, even if part of me revels in the opportunity to have a less straitened, pristine, and monochromatic Christian story to tell than the Reformers would dictate to us. Because the positive side of all this sumptuous excess and rich memorial art is that it catalogues for us an amazing diversity in the Christian tradition from very early in its history, which is hard to reduce to the kind of irredentist straitjacket that imagines there was one and only one model for the church or for living the Christian life, from the origins of the Christian movement . . . .<br />

Sitting in Assisi (more precisely: Santa Maria degli Angeli) train station, awaiting our train to Rome. the mist persisted all the while we were in Assisi, making the place more magical--muting and hiding shops full of tawdry tourist tat, giving the birds singing atop trees a far-away, ghostly presence.</div>

Beneath it, a rooftop of interlocking tiles in all the colors I just named, splotched with gold, green, and gray lichen, a thing of wonder. Something <i>simple</i> and not fussy, in contrast to the church gewgaws that are everywhere--something simple in which one hears Francis preach the gospel: be just who you are, raising hands and voice to praise God in the unique way only you can offer praise, by being your best self uplifted.</div>

When we checked out of Papa Giovanni this morning, we found that the two suppers and one lunch we had eaten there cost only € 20--for two people. The food was so good--simple and honest. On the evening of the 20th, we had a very simple meal of minestrone replete with vegetables (so welcome after days of fat, salt, and stooge) followed by scallopini of pork served with green beans tossed in olive oil. With the soup were croutons of sliced bread fried in olive oil (or toasted and then smeared with olive oil). All delicious, with taste that is simply not there with the same ingredients in the U.S.</div>

Lunch yesterday was pasta in tomato sauce followed by chicken scallopini and a mixed green salad, supper more of the delicious, filling minestrone, followed by an omelet, a slice of cheese, and a large dish of spinach braised and tossed simply in olive oil.</div>

Always a bottle of local Umbrian wine on the table, a dish of grated parmesan, a jar of peperoncini to sprinkle on the food, and a dessert plate of oranges, apples, and tangerines.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
And before I forget: a highlight of our time in Assisi was happening on the little medieval church of Santo Stefano. Steve had seen signs to it, and wanted to follow them, because, well, <i>Stephen</i>. When we found the church, we were so glad we'd taken the time to follow the signs. It was utterly austere, simple in a way that puts the basilicas and cathedrals to shame, with a single faded and partially gone mural, and a tasteful statue of St. Stephen.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
That and the plain crucifix over the altar are the whole of the church's ornamentation. The church was empty as we walked into it yesterday evening, and then a family came along with their children, evidently to visit the presepio. I felt the spirit of Francis far more palpably in this little Umbrian village church, which would have been in existence during his lifetime, than in any of the "official" Franciscan places we visited while in Assisi.</div>

But I'm not at all sure I know even where you are. Not even here in Assisi, where I've just visited your shrine, prayed at your tomb, left a candle there to be lit on the altar before your tomb.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I find it very hard to see you <i>anywhere</i> in that monstrosity of a church, with its busy shrines and side altars. With its <i>business</i>. </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They've made a business of your memory, Francis. Little poor man of Assisi. Stores full of tacky gewgaws and pilgrim tchotchkes (and, yes, we bought some bookmarks with your picture on them, some eucalyptus lozenges for my sore throat, some scented soaps to bring back as gifts.)</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But where are <i>you</i> in all this business, Francis, in the cheap tau crosses and crosses that spoke, in the € 500 gold crosses one can buy if one asks to look in cases under lock and key? Where are you?</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Where are you, above all, in the many hard faces that seem to have no joy or welcome (things about which you--and Jesus--spoke much) about them, even as they pray at your shrine? Some of them, the hardest faces of all, the faces of young religious dedicated in a special way to you and Jesus . . . . </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I know. I should be praying, not studying the faces of fellow pilgrims. My own face is, I have no doubt, as closed and censorious as many of those about which I write.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I should be praying for my own conversion, not that of others.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But there's this: the hardness is often--how can I pretend I don't see this?--directed specifically at Steve and me as a couple. As if to say, How dare you come here? How dare you show your face here? How dare you pretend to pray?</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
How dare you pick up that candle and bring it to be lit at the poverello's shrine?</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is a message we've been given a long time now by many members of our church. It's one we're receiving all over again on this pilgrimage to the institutional homeland of our church. Even at your shrine, though you spoke constantly of embracing, welcoming, celebrating God in everyone around you. And you showed us these gospel values by your actions.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Francis, where are you? In this "new" church of a pope who has your name, whose message is supposed to be about a gospel of joy, about not judging those who are gay . . . ?</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I find it hard to see your face in this church, even now. When we went to your shrine today, it was so shrouded by winter mist, we could hardly discern its outlines inside the fog. As a follower of Jesus who happens to have been made gay, I've spent much of my life waiting and watching for the church to emerge from the mists--the church of joy and welcome, not the one of censure and judgment with which many of us have lived so long. </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm still not seeing that church emerging from the mists. Francis, where are you?</div>

In Assisi now. We arrived about 3 P.M. and took a taxi up the hill to Casa Papa Giovanni. Absolutely none of the malarkey here about shared rooms, the finger-wagging about two men and matrimony. The nice lay staff member who greeted us and showed us to our room asked if we wanted one room or two, and when we told her one, she showed us to a room with two single beds.<br />

Drizzling since our arrival, which makes the the countryside mystical, the shroud of fine rain and mist overhanging everything, muting the faint grays, browns, greens, and blues of winter. As we came out of the shrine of Clare, the sun was setting beneath the lowering dark clouds, forming a red bar atop the line of hills to the west, a beautiful sight.</div>

Since we had no lunch, after our arrival, we walked down the hill to the Piazza di Commune and had a café macchiato and shared pastry standing at a coffee bar, and then visited the church of Santa Maria sopra Minerva, dark and baroque with one of those Marys crowned with stars (Lourdes?) you see so often in European Catholic churches of a certain ilk, and which was, indeed, replicated in the cathedral up the hill.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A people-sized church, Steve said of Santa Maria sopra Minerva, unlike the cathedral, which is larger without being grand, and where there was an interesting African-themed presepio in a little sunken chapel-like area near the door to the church, with an iron fence so that one could look but not approach. Zebras running in a line across the pasture in which Joseph and Mary linger under a shed . . . .</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On to Clare's basilica, where we sat before the San Damiano cross and then went to the crypt to see the--let's be truthful--mummy of Clare. I found the exhibit of her cilice, hair shirt, tattered this and that, frankly appalling. How, I wonder, has the message of Christianity come to be about dead bodies and hair shirts?</div>

After that, a shot of grappa against the cold and damp as we stood at a coffee-shop bar just up the hill from the basilica, where we talked in French with the Moroccan owner about the bad economy of Italy and the German work ethic, and then back up the hill in the growing dark for supper at Papa Giovanni.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As we walk in, we step into the bookstore attached to the place, and a rap song is playing, perhaps on a radio station broadcast into the bookstore. We hear, "If I was gay, I'd think hip-hop hates me." Then the rapper, who sounds like a black male, goes on about how people who have experienced oppression should not oppress others, and how being gay is being treated always as lesser than. And then he says that a lesson he learned in church is that sermons used to hurl hate are not anointed words.<br />

Sitting in the busy, noisy Santa Maria Novella station (which has one pitiful banquette for the entire galumphing place, a banquette on which my big posterior is barely perched). We're awaiting our 12:10 train to Assisi.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
A nice supper last night in the room, the things we had bought at the Central Market along with the cheese and breads and sausage we've brought from Bolzano, and delicious wizened little apples from the Feichter Hotel, which kept a bowl of them in its lobby for guests to take.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The eggplant especially delicious, thinly sliced and friend in olive oil and garlic. The porcinis turned out to be marinated in a light lemon and olive oil dressing, and were also good.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With the supper, we shared (as in, I had one glass and Steve the rest) a bottle of the Magdalener wine Steve had bought from the nice man who sold us Ultner bread at the Bolzano farmers' market. Since we had Tuscan red wines with meals the last two days (the house reds at the pizza place two evenings ago and the trattoria yesterday), the Südtirol red seemed thin. The Tuscan wines, by contrast, robust, full of flavor, tasting of earth and grape and sun.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
This morning to the Accademia to see David. We had reservations for 8:30, though this was another case where it turned out we could have well stood in the short ticket line, where we'd have been the only non-Japanese visitors and would have gotten in just as quickly as if we hadn't bought the more expensive reservations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Still, it happened we had the David entirely to ourselves for a few minutes, and could stroll around it and look carefully without jostling anyone.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When we arrive, a museum docent sitting in his chair looking up at David as if they have an understanding, a pose similar to that of someone praying before a holy statue.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
What to say? The <i>power</i> of the piece, the exquisite, elegant detail of the hands with veins running across their surface, and of the hair, the slightly pensive, even cautious gaze of little David as he confronts huge Goliath.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We strolled around and found the medieval pieces interesting, the room of Roman busts piled high astonishing, even amusing--an ancient bourgeois photo gallery.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Then on to San Marco and the Fra Angelico murals, which stirred me less than I had expected, and I'm not sure why. Perhaps an overload of world-class art in two short days? As if one has gorged on fried goodies, sweets, every delicious pasta available, all at one big banquet splurge.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

I did enjoy seeing the Annunciation fresco, the delicate color, the multicolored wings of the angels, the slightly distrait and shocked look of Mary.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And now Maria Novella and the shifting departure board scrolling above, as disembodied voices announce train arrivals and departures. Of the 10 arrivals now posted on the board, 7 note that they're delayed, some for half an hour--which I suspect is a euphemism for, It comes when it comes.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
After the Uffizi, a walk to the Central Market, where we found a promising-looking trattoria, Trattoria Katti, in Via Faenza, a side street without any of the restaurants clearly intent on pulling in tourist trade. They had a nice-looking daily menu chalked on a blackboard outside, with reasonable prices, so we took a leap and went in, and were glad we did.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
A small place with attractive stone walls and stenciling to produce a faded-mural look. We noticed we were the only non-Italians there, another promising sign. Steve had osso buco and potatoes al forno, and I took the two-course €14 daily special, choosing ribollita as the first course and pork scallops al funghi as the second.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Everything was delicious. Both the mushrooms we had last night on our pizza and those with the scallopini today were so flavorful that we wondered why porcini mushrooms in the U.S. never taste like this.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On to the market--a cacophony, especially in the section selling seafood, where men standing next to each other nevertheless carried on a conversation in stentorian booms that would easily have crossed a football field. Signs on the doors: No smoking. People everywhere inside lighting cigarettes right and left.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We find a series of display cases selling prepared dishes, where one of the men behind the counter commands us to try his olives, to eat some prosciutto. I eat an olive, pronounce it delicious, and am then commanded to take the prosciutto I had previously refused . . . having just eaten.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For our evening meal back in our rooms, we buy some zucchini stewed with peppers, marinated porcinis, grilled eggplant slices, the delicious olives we had just tasted, and we endure (or, in Steve's case, enjoy) the patter of the two men and woman behind the counter. One of the men tells us he knows Bill Clinton (our line when we're asked where we're from: <i>Little Rock, Bill Clinton</i>) and once ate a meal with him.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Two Frenchwomen at the counter buying sandwiches tell us they're teachers who have brought 200 French teens to the Uffizi. I tell them I think we encountered those teens when we were just at the Uffizi, and better them than me, looking after those young people with their wild energy.</div>

Then back to our rooms to put our feet up awhile, and out again later as dark approaches to go inside the Duomo, whose outside we'd appreciated earlier, and then to walk to the celebrated perfumery near Santa Maria Novella, the Farmacia di Santa Maria Novella.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
That place is, as guidebooks say, elegant. The rosewater is unlike any I've ever smelled, with its intense rose fragrance. But the prices are out of our league, so we look, smell, and then walk on, noticing a nice sweet shop, DolceForte, nearby that sells wonderful-looking candies, biscotti, panforte elegantly wrapped and in all sizes.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We buy some biscotti to nibble as we travel, and a small panforte for Mary. I spot a candy marked Magie di Strega and ask the woman (one of two) behind the counter, "Witch candy?"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
She smiles and says yes, and I say, "Ah, for <i>bad</i> children." Her younger colleague appreciates my attempt at humor and laughs, but the older woman misses the joke and solemnly explains it's chocolate filled with liqueur.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The most eye-catching thing in the store is eye-catching candy in bright garish lacquered colors, formed into designs like flower petals, and marked <i>Confetti</i>.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After this, a shared cup of hot chocolate and a panna cotta topped with chocolate sauce at a very nice little café on the corner of Via dei Banchi and Via del Giglio, where the sweet, solicitous waitress speaks not a word of English. I'm proud of our ability to order in our baby Italian, down to <i>acqua frizzante</i>.</div>

As we walk home and reach the Duomo, a small parade is in progress--thrum, thrum, thrum go the drums, as men in uniforms similar to what you'd see in illustrations of Columbus and the Conquistadors march with crossbows and halberds. Some have on those peaked metal hats with feathers sticking out of them, and are clad in bright costumes slashed with complementary bright colors.</div>

Oh. As we set our on our afternoon walk, we passed a tiny art studio with beautiful tiny lacquered and gilded paintings--churches, fish, landscapes--in the window. We walked in, and the artist, Daniela Meza Sigala, was there.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We talked awhile. I quite liked her. Steve bought for me a tiny journal with handmade rice paper and on its front a small acrylic of hers, a tiny impressionistic Tuscan landscape with the title "In Toscana," which I thought I'd frame as a remembrance of this trip and a day that began with prancing shouting little martinets and ended with starlings wheeling against a winter's evening sky over the church of Maria Novella. <i>Madonna buona!</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

(But because it's more blessed to give than to receive, I think I'll bring it back as a Christmas present for my brother Philip, instead.)</div>

Now at the Uffizi, having high-priced cappuccinos in the cafeteria and having decided it's worth the price to have a moment to sit down and enjoy the spectacular view. The process of obtaining tickets and entrance a perfect farce.<br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.");

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We'd made reservations online (and had paid for them), understanding this would obviate the need to stand in line for tickets. Not so.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There's a line to obtain one's reserved ticket--a line as long as the other ticket line for folks who have no reservations at all and are simply buying their tickets. We wait in the first line, get the ticket, the lady at the desk telling us the computer's not wanting to print today. We wait. We wait more. She then hands us our tickets and tells us to go and stand in line one across the street.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We cross the street. There are lines two and three, but no line one. A nice museum official directs us and others who had had reservations to line two--the line for those with no reservations who are just obtaining tickets. It's never clear to me what line three is for.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As wet get to the head of line two, where there's a screening machine like the ones in airports, the officious little martinet preparing people to pass through the machine shouts that we're in the wrong line.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Go to line one!</i> The two Italian women behind us, who had been directed to line two by the same official outside, protest and explain that we had been directed by a museum official to this line.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But nothing will do the little martinet except that we go and stand in the other (non-existent) line. So outside we head, only to be intercepted by the nice man who had sent us to line two, who sends us back inside and comes along with us and shouts at the martinet, who then relents and lets us through, huffing officiously all the while. <i>Madonna buona! </i>shouts the nice man at the other one.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Italian ladies turn to us and say, <i>Only in Italy can this happen</i>. Steve nicely says, "Oh, no, such things can happen anywhere." I'm less yielding and say, "Yes! It appears our reservations paid for the privilege of waiting in two different lines and being shouted at," and we all laugh--only to pass through the screening device and have yet <i>another</i> little martinet sitting at the end of the screening process shout at us for not carrying the baskets that held our belongings as they went through the screening machine back to the other side of the machine.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And then the Uffizi--from barbarism to civilization:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What to say? So many better educated people have written volumes about the works in this museum, it would be superfluous (and presumptuous in the extreme) for me to try to say anything of substance. And so impressions:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Overwhelming, of course, so that I very quickly reached saturation point and felt I was taking in less and less with each room. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The medieval works, the Giottos and Cimabue: the <i>frontality</i> (and angularity), which has much to do with the iconic traditions preceding these paintings. Icons: eyes must engage eyes, so that the heads of some of the holy ones are bent at an angle to assure that one <i>sees</i>--sees them looking, meets their eyes. Through the eye-to-eye contact is the holy transmitted, touched, made accessible in this world.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The early Renaissance works, especially the Botticellis: spectacular, of course. What's often commented on is the shift from Madonna to Venus or Flora, the shift from iconography with its focus on the otherworldly realm of the holy, to celebration of the human.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What struck me, though, was the <i>movement</i>, which is nowhere in the icons, in the medieval religious works. They're <i>doors</i>, and fixed ones, where we are invited to enter a holy realm by looking into the eyes of the holy ones.</div>

What changes with Botticelli is that things <i>move</i>. The trio beside Venus, the three graces, <i>move</i>; they dance. Chloris morphs to Flora before our eyes--she moves--from tree to flower-bedecked goddess.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the Venus-rising painting, winds blow, the maid brings a dress billowing in the wind, and Venus emerges from the sea, hair wafting in the breeze. There's no more of the frontality, the iconic angularity, the fixed door of the medieval religious works. All is now in flux, a new world emerging from the old, celebrating its emergence through dance, the movement of wind and wave, the turning of seasons: through <i>movement</i>. </div>

The painting that perhaps surprised me the most: the Adam and Eve diptych of Lucas Cranach the Elder. As with so many northern European paintings of the period, the technical expertise Cranach displays here is stunning. But there's something more that draws my eye, and I'm not quite sure that it is--the frank if sublimated eroticism running between the two?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm not sure. Whatever it is, it's <i>there. </i>These are two paintings I could continue to look at over and over. Perhaps it's the stripped-down-to-essentials quality of the frankly <i>human</i> gaze of all these northern European paintings, where one feels for the first time as if one is meeting the introspective gaze of modernity as it begins to be born after the Renaissance is well underway.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The high Renaissance works, Titians, etc.: the colors. My God. The colors. So clear, limpid, rich, as if color has been, well, what? Boiled, distilled, its essence tweaked to produce something well beyond a distillation and essence of ordinary color.</div>
