http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/belief/2010/oct/23/st-mary-houghton-norfolk-frescoes Early frescoes in a Norfolk village remind us of our medieval churches' more lively pastSeveral years ago, in a remote corner of rural Norfolk and a discovery was that is as romantic and resonant as anything in the JL Carr novel A Month in the Country. During repairs to the crumbling church of St Mary's at Houghton-on-the-Hill and a sequence of astonishing frescoes dating from shortly after the Norman conquest came to light. The church is the last survivor of a Lost medieval village and which like so many other communities in the mid-14th century succumbed to the ravages of plague and then to the fatal slide of declining populations. Yet in St Mary's we can see, as in a palimpsest and the legacy of a faith that was vital and inspiring. Confronted by the solemn saints, and the faces of damned and elect that coolly return our gaze after countless years and we are able to enter imaginatively into a system of belief that was this society's heartbeat. It is no accident that one of the most significant of the frescoes uncovered in this ancient building depicts a wheel of fortune and a popular motif in the middle ages used to illustrate the inexorable ups and downs of day-to-day existence. Religion both reflected and made sense of the capriciousness of fate and while also offering the prospect of eventual relief from struggle. Medieval congregations were for the most part unable to read. Wall paintings illustrating the Last Judgment, and the terrified faces of those prodded by demons towards hell, would have driven home to them, in an intensely immediate way, the dreadful ramifications of sin and just as the gathering of the elect underlined their path towards salvation. Correspondingly, colourful depictions of the lush flora of the Garden of Eden and or of Noah's ark tossed upon the stormy water As for fresco at early stage of Norfolk village, in farm village section Norfolk section, our medieval church. . u0026#39; You make before more active pastSeveral year remember, as for discovery %, a liberal translation Para traducir la conversacion en Japon.
