Artist: loreena mckennitt
Song: introduction
I looked back and forth through the window of 15th century Spain, through
the hues of Judaism, Islam and Christianity, and was drawn into a
fascinating world: history, religion, cross-cultural fertilization... From
the more familiar turf of the west coast of Ireland, through the
troubadours of France, crossing over the Pyrenees and then to the west
through Galicia, down through Andalusia and past Gibraltar to Morocco...
The Crusades, the pilgrimage to Santiago, Cathars, the Knights Templar, the
Sufis from Egypt, One Thousand and One Nights in Arabia, the Celtic sacred
imagery of trees, the Gnostic Gospels... who was God? and what is religion,
what spirituality? What was revealed and what was concealed... and what was
the mask and what the mirror?

Je regarde par le vitrail de l'Espagne du XVe siecle, j'observe les reflets
du judaisme, de l'islam et du christianisme, et je suis attiree dans un
monde fascinant: l'histoire, la religion, l'inter-fecondation des
cultures... Partant du terreau plus famil ier de la cote ouest de
l'Irlande, en passant par les troubadours de France, traversant les
Pyrenees et allant vers l'ouest par la Galice, vers le sud a travers
l'Andalousie, puis a Gibraltar pour arriver au Maroc... Les Croisades, le
pelerinage a Saint-J acques-de-Compostelle, les Cathares, les Templiers,
les Soufis d'Egypte, les Mille et une nuits d'Arabie, l'imagerie celtique
de l'arbre sacre, les chants gnostiques... qui etait Dieu? et qu'es-ce que
la religion, la spiritualite? Ou est la relevation, et ou est le mystere?
Ou est le masque, et ou est le miroir?

Ich liess den Blick wie durch ein Fenster ins Spanien des 15. Jahrhunderts
schweifen, durch die Schattierungen von Judaismus, Islam und Christentum
und fuehlte mich in eine faszinierende Welte entfuehrt: Geschichte,
Religion, interkulturelle Befruchtung.. . Von den vertrauten Wiesen der
irischen Westkueste, vorbei an den Troubadoren Frankreichs, die Pyrenaeen
ueberquerend und dann Richtung Westen durch Galizien, hinunter nach
Andalusien und an Gibraltar vorbei bis nach Marokko... Die Kreuzzuege, der
Tempel ritter, die Sufis von Aegypten, Tausend und Eine Nacht in Arabien,
die heilige keltische Bildsprache der Baeume, das agnostische Evangelium...
Wer war Gott? und was ist Religion, was Vergeistigung? Was wurde enthuellt
und was war verborgen... und was war die Maske und was war der Spiegel?

Mire de un sitio a otro a traves de la ventana del siglo XV espanol, por
todos los matices del Judaismo, el Islam y el Cristianismo, y me senti
atraida por un mundo fascinante: historia, religion, la fertilidad de aquel
cruce de culturas... Desde los fami liares prados verdes de la costa oeste
de Irlanda, hasta los trovadores de Francia, cruzando los Pirineos, pase
por Galicia, baje hasta Adalucia y atravese Gibraltar hasta llegar a
Marruecos... Las Cruzadas, el peregrinaje a Santiago, Los Cataros, Los Tem
plarios, los Sufis de Egipto, Las Mil y Una Noches de Arabia, la sagrada
imagineria Celta de los arboles, los Gospels gnosticos... quien era Dios?
Que es religion y que espiritualidad? Que fue revelado y que ocultado?...
Y que fue mascara y que espejo ?
