by the athenian hero theseus theseus was aided by ariadne who provided him with a fateful thread to wind his way back again the term labyrinth is often used interchangeably with maze but a maze is a tour puzzle in the form of a complex branching passage with choices of path and direction while a single path unicursal labyrinth has only a single eulerian path to the centre a labyrinth has an unambiguous through route to the centre and back and is not designed to be difficult to navigate ancient labyrinths pliny the elder mentions four ancient labyrinths cretan labyrinth egyptian labyrinth lemnian labyrinth and italian labyrinth labyrinth is a word of pre greek pelasgian origin absorbed by classical greek and is apparently related to labrys a word for the archaic iconic double axe with inthos connoting place as in corinth the complex palace of knossos in crete is usually implicated though the actual dancing ground depicted in frescoed patterns at knossos has not been found something was being shown to visitors
as a labyrinth at knossos in the one st century ad philostratos de vita apollonii tyanei iv three four noted in kerenyi p one zero one n one seven one the oldest known examples of the labyrinth design are small simple petroglyphs incised stones perhaps dating back three zero zero zero years these spiralling labyrinth pattern petroglyphs are found in numerous places across the world from syria to ireland greek mythology did not recall however that in crete there was a lady who presided over the labyrinth a tablet inscribed in linear b found at knossos records a gift to all the gods honey to the mistress of the labyrinth honey all the gods together receive as much honey as the mistress of the labyrinth alone she must have been a great goddess kerenyi observes kerenyi one nine seven six p nine one that the cretan labyrinth had been a dancing ground and was made for ariadne rather than for minos was remembered by homer in iliad xviii five nine zero five nine three where in the pattern that hephaestus inscribed on
achilles shield one incident pictured was a dancing ground like the one that daedalus designed in the spacious town of knossos for ariadne of the lovely locks even the labyrinth dance was depicted on the shield where youths and marriageable maidens were dancing on it with their hands on one another s wrists circling as smoothly on their accomplished feet as the wheel of a potter and there they ran in lines to meet each other the labyrinth is the referent in the familiar greek patterns of the endlessly running meander to give the greek key its common modern name in the three rd century bc coins from knossos are still struck with the labyrinth symbol the predominant labyrinth form during this period is the simple seven circuit style known as the classical labyrinth illustration the term labyrinth came to be applied to any unicursal maze whether of a particular circular shape illustration or rendered as square at the center a decisive turn brought one out again in the socratic dialogue that plato produced as eu
thydemus socrates describes the labyrinthine line of a logical argument then it seemed like falling into a labyrinth we thought we were at the finish but our way bent round and we found ourselves as it were back at the beginning and just as far from that which we were seeking at first thus the present day notion of a labyrinth as a place where one can lose his way must be set aside it is a confusing path hard to follow without a thread but provided the traverser is not devoured at the midpoint it leads surely despite twists and turns back to the beginning kerenyi p nine one even more generally labyrinth might be applied to any extremely complicated maze like structure herodotus in book ii of his histories describes as a labyrinth a building complex in egypt near the place called the city of crocodiles that he considered to surpass the pyramids in its astonishing ambition it has twelve covered courts six in a row facing north six south the gates of the one range exactly fronting the gates of the other inside t
he building is of two storeys and contains three thousand rooms of which half are underground and the other half directly above them i was taken through the rooms in the upper storey so what i shall say of them is from my own observation but the underground ones i can speak of only from report because the egyptians in charge refused to let me see them as they contain the tombs of the kings who built the labyrinth and also the tombs of the sacred crocodiles the upper rooms on the contrary i did actually see and it is hard to believe that they are the work of men the baffling and intricate passages from room to room and from court to court were an endless wonder to me as we passed from a courtyard into rooms from rooms into galleries from galleries into more rooms and thence into yet more courtyards the roof of every chamber courtyard and gallery is like the walls of stone the walls are covered with carved figures and each court is exquisitely built of white marble and surrounded by a colonnade labyrinth as pat
tern in antiquity the more complicated labyrinth pattern familiar from medieval examples was already developed in roman floor mosaics the simple classical labyrinth is framed in the meander border pattern squared off as the medium requires but still recognisable often an image of a bull man a minotaur appears in the centre of these mosaic labyrinths roman meander patterns gradually developed in complexity towards the four fold shape that is now familiarly known as the medieval form the labyrinth retains its connection with death and a triumphant return at hadrumentum in north africa a roman family tomb has a fourfold labyrinth mosaic floor with a dying minotaur in the center and a mosaic inscription hicinclusus vitamperdit enclosed here he loses life kerenyi fig three one image con mbriga minotauro jpg minotaur in the labyrinth a roman mosaic at con mbriga portugal image labyrinth lucca jpg wall maze in lucca cathedral italy probably medieval image rocky valley labyrinth tintagel jpg finger labyrinth of unkno

s of the greek labyrinth in modern imagery the labyrinth is often confused with the maze in which one may become lost the myth of the labyrinth has in recent times transformed into a stage play by ilinka crvenkovska in which exploring notions of a man s ability to control his own fate theseus in an act of suicide is killed by the minotaur only to be killed himself by the horrified towns people the argentinian writer jorge luis borges was entranced with the idea of the labyrinth and used it extensively throughout his short stories his modern literary use of the labyrinth has inspired a great many other authors in their own works e g umberto eco s the name of the rose mark z danielewski s house of leaves cultural meanings cultural meaning and interpretation of the labyrinth as a symbol is quite interesting shortly put prehistoric labyrinths serve either as traps for malevolent spirits or as defined paths for ritual dances during medieval times the labyrinth symbolized a hard path to the god with a clearly defin

es failed to do so even after they became aware that the lagrands were german nationals the lagrand brothers later contacted the german consulate of their own accord having learned of their right to consular assistance from other sources they appealed their sentences and convictions on the grounds that they were not informed of their right to consular assistance and that with consular assistance they might have been able to mount a better defence the appeal was rejected by u s federal courts based on the u s municipal law doctrine of procedural default which provides that issues cannot be raised in federal court appeals unless they have first been raised in state courts karl lagrand was subsequently executed by the state of arizona on february two four one nine nine nine germany then initiated legal action in the international court of justice against the united states regarding walter lagrand hours before walter lagrand was due to be executed germany applied for the court to grant provisional measures propri
o motu i e without a hearing and without giving the united states the opportunity to be heard requiring the united states to prevent the execution of walter lagrand the court granted germany s request germany then initiated action in the u s supreme court for enforcement of the provisional measures in its judgment the u s supreme court federal republic of germany et al vs united states et al five two six u s one one one per curiam held that it lacked jurisdiction with respect to germany s complaint against arizona due to the eleventh amendment of the u s constitution which prohibits federal courts from hearing lawsuits of foreign states against a u s state with respect to germany s case against the united states it held that the doctrine of procedural default was not incompatible with the vienna convention and that even if procedural default did conflict with the vienna convention it had been pre empted by later federal law the anti terrorism and effective death penalty act of one nine nine six which explicit
ly legislated the doctrine of procedural default for purposes of u s municipal law later congressional legislation overrides earlier conflicting treaties the u s solicitor general sent a letter to the supreme court as part of these proceedings arguing that provisional measures of the international court of justice are not legally binding the united states department of state also conveyed the icj s provisional measure to the governor of arizona without comment the arizona clemency board recommended a stay to the governor on the basis of the pending icj case but the governor of arizona ignored the recommendation and walter lagrand was executed on march three one nine nine nine as of two zero zero six this was last use of gas chamber in the u s germany then modified its complaint in the case before the international court of justice alleging furthermore that the u s violated international law by failing to implement the provisional measures it also was forced to modify its request for remedies previously it had
sought the u s to grant a new trial to walter lagrand but now he had been executed this was no longer possible in opposition to the german submissions the united states argued that the vienna convention did not grant rights to individuals only to states the court rejected this argument on the grounds that the u s interpretation contradicted the plain meaning of the convention the united states argued that the vienna convention was meant to be exercised subject to the laws of each state party which in the case of the united states meant subject to the doctrine of procedural default but the court found that domestic laws could not limit the rights of the accused under the convention but only specify the means by which those rights were to be exercised the united states argued that germany was seeking to turn the court into an international court of criminal appeal the court rejected this argument also on june two seven two zero zero one the international court of justice handed down its judgement finding in fa
vour of germany that provisional measures were legally binding the binding nature of provisional measures has been a subject of great dispute in international law the english text of the statute of the international court of justice implies they are not binding while the french text implies that they are faced with a contradiction between two equally authentic texts of the statute the court considered which interpretation better served the objects and purposes of the statute and hence found that they are binding this was the first time in the court s history it had ruled as such the court also found that the united states violated the vienna convention through its application of procedural default the court was at pains to point out that it was not passing judgement on the doctrine itself but only its application to cases involving the vienna convention external links judgement of the international court of justice judgement of u s supreme court federal republic of germany vs united states asil insight articl

leads to worker discomfort and adverse health effects since the early one nine eight zero s a global dark sky movement has emerged with concerned people campaigning to reduce the amount of light pollution light pollution is a side effect of industrial civilization it comes from sources such as building exterior and interior lighting advertising commercial properties offices factories streetlights and lit sporting venues it is most severe in the highly industrialised densely populated areas of the united states europe and japan but even relatively small amounts of light can be noticed and create problems with recent advances in private spaceflight the prospect of space based orbiting billboards appearing in the near future has provoked concern that such objects may become another form of light pollution with this in mind the united states federal aviation administration sought permission in may two zero zero five to enforce a law prohibiting obtrusive advertising in earth orbit federal aviation administration
two zero zero five similar intentions are yet to be expressed by authorities in most other countries however light pollution as a problem times square at night light pollution also known as photopollution luminous pollution refers to light that people find annoying or harmful some skeptics claim that light pollution cannot be compared with real pollution they argue stray or excess light has no long term effect because unlike traditional forms of pollution light pollution is not persistent and would cease if all artificial lights were immediately switched off campaigners wishing to reduce light pollution however reason that it is unrealistic to expect populations to ever switch off light en masse due to industrial society s economic reliance on artificial light they posit therefore that it is a problem synonymous with traditional forms of pollution where established trends in society have long term negative effects these arguments mesh with energy conservation advocates who contend that light pollution must be
addressed by changing the habits of society so that lighting is used more efficiently with less wastage and less creation of unwanted or unneeded illumination the case against light pollution is strengthened by an array of health effects studies showing impacts of excess light to induce loss in visual acuity hypertension headaches and in one study cancer several industry groups also recognise light pollution as an important issue for example the institution of lighting engineers in the united kingdom provides information for its members about light pollution the problems it causes and how to reduce the pollution since not everyone is irritated by the same lighting sources light pollution has a measure of subjectivity it is common for one person s light pollution to be light that is desirable for another this is often the case with advertising material such as when an advertiser wishes for particular lights to be brightly visible even though others find them annoying other types of light pollution are more ce
rtain for instance light that accidentally crosses a property boundary and annoys a neighbour is generally wasted and pollutive light disputes are still common however when deciding if it is necessary to do anything about it differences in opinion over what light is considered reasonable and who should be responsible means that negotiation must sometimes take place between parties authorities have also taken a variety of measures for dealing with light pollution depending on the interests beliefs and understandings of the society involved measures range from doing nothing at all to implementing strict laws and regulations about how lights may be installed and used types of light pollution light pollution is a broad term that refers to multiple problems all of which are caused by inefficient annoying or arguably unnecessary use of artificial light specific categories of light pollution include light trespass glare clutter overillumination and sky glow it is common however for annoying or wasteful light to fit
several of these categories light trespass light trespass occurs when unwanted light enters one s property for instance by shining over a neighbour s fence a common light trespass problem occurs when a strong light enters the window of one s home from outside causing problems such as sleep deprivation or the blocking of an evening view light trespass is particularly annoying for amateur astronomers whose ability to observe the night sky from their property is likely to be inhibited by any stray light from nearby most major optical astronomical observatories are surrounded by zones of severely restricted light emissions a large number of cities in the u s have developed stringent standards for outdoor lighting to protect such observatories glare glare is the result of excessive contrast between bright and dark areas in the field of view for example glare can be associated with directly seeing the filament of an unshielded or badly shielded light light shining into the eyes of pedestrians and drivers can obscur
