Forgotten past (Passado esquecido)

God was philosophically killed, but believers continue to find him everywhere. The rich lived in castles; Chantilly was a place for recreation: in Visegrad, Bela IV (14th century) fought against the Mongol invasion. Every work was dignifying.


Filosoficamente mataram Deus, mas os crentes continuam a encontrá-lo em qualquer lado. Os ricos viviam em castelos; era de recreio o de Chantilly: no de Visegrad opôs-se Bela IV (séc. XIV) à invasão Mongol. Todo o trabalho era dignificante.
