The Pillar

The Hereford Mappa Mundi was created in around the 1300s and is currently being kept in the Hereford Cathedral. The map was drawn on a single sheet of vellum (calfskin). It measures 162.56cm by 132.08cm (64 inches by 52 inches) and has many drawings that delineate the period in which the map was made, showing us about how people lived in that time. The maps were drawn and written with lots of detailed information, but could only be read by people who spoke a certain branch of French (Norman…

Are the enormous columns floating in the abyss of space or are they being held aloft by the still illusive figure? Another instance of this…

There are several different types of subsidence including: mine drainage from water collection, sinkhole, which typically occur when mines are in proximity to the surface and trough subsidence that appears above a failed shaft pillar or some external pressure that forces a pillar into a soft mine floor or ceiling.

The Journey to Justice Justice is a very important pillar of society that everyone desires. In Till We Have Faces by C.S Lewis, there is a theme dedicated to finding justice and what it means to the protagonist Orual. Orual’s idea of justice is everyone being treated equally, and although her search is only minorly successful, it shows that one's true self is found through facing adversity. Orual’s idea that justice and equality are one in the same, forms from her being discriminated against.…
