English: Humana Fumus, dans Les Emblèmes (n° 73)
Gabriel Rollenhagen (1583-1619), Cologne, 1611. Gravure sur cuivre, 15 × 15 cm BnF, Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal, Ars 4 BL 4988 Pulvis et umbra sumus; pulvis nihil est nisi fumus, Sed nihil est fumus; nos nihil ergo sumus. Hee, that on Earthly-things, doth trust Dependeth, upon Smoake, and Dust. The vocabulary is keyed to the DCC Latin Vocabulary list. There are only two words in this poem that are not on the DCC list: fūmus, fūmī m. - smoke, steam pulvis, pulveris m. - dust ergo: therefore et: and hūmānus -a -um: human nihil, nīl: nothing; not at all nisi/nī: if not, unless nōs nostrum/nostrī nobis nōs: we sed: but sum, esse, fuī: be, exist umbra -ae f.: shade, shadowFrançais : Publiés en Europe aux XVIe et XVIIe siècles, les livres d’emblèmes traduisent les doutes, les interrogations et les espérances religieuses de leurs contemporains en associant des images énigmatiques, semées de symboles, et des textes courts, poèmes et devises. Les différentes formes qu’y revêt la sphère – simple boule, globe terrestre muni de ses accessoires (cercles méridien et horizon), sphère cosmique (céleste ou armillaire) – guident également l’interprétation. Dans ces ouvrages, l’ambivalence symbolique du globe semble découler, des propriétés physiques de la sphère elle-même : instabilité et imprévisibilité d’une part, perfection géométrique d’autre part, qui lui valut d’être érigée en modèle de l’univers. Réinterprétées sur le plan moral, ces qualités déterminent comme l’avers et le revers d’une même médaille. Boule qui tourne, la sphère symbolise l’inconstance de l’amour, les revers de la fortune, et, plus généralement, notre monde sublunaire, voué à l’impermanence et à la mort. Español: Humana fumus = Las cosas humanas [son humo]. «Polvo y sombra somos; el polvo no es nada más que humo;
pero nada es el humo: luego nosotros nada somos.». |

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag. |
