Cum haec pellicula vulgāta erit, ego sum vir nūptus!

Carissimae amantī meae Cyan mense Mārtiō annō[br]2020 spōnsō, spōnsiōnem īnsolitissimam habuimus

0:00:15.202,0:00:19.583
Atque ut fēsta prōdūcam, hanc pelliculam[br]dēdicāre volēbam meae UXŌRĪ!
0:00:19.583,0:00:20.986
Ah! Delectābile.
0:00:20.986,0:00:26.275
Itaque rem typicissimē meī fēcit:[br]opus īnvestīgātiōnis fēminae dedī.
0:00:26.275,0:00:27.810
Adōrābile mox fiet, prōmittō.
0:00:27.810,0:00:32.813
Eī dīxī eam ūllum locum vel opus architectūrae[br]totī mundī ēligere posse dē quō pelliculam facerem.
0:00:32.813,0:00:35.793
Ēn Cyan peregrīnātiōnem[br]internātiōnālem nōn neglēxit;

vērē dictum, ea plūrēs nātiōnēs[br]Europaeās vīsit quam ego.
0:00:39.693,0:00:43.880
Itaque modo inter locōs quōs ipsa vīsit[br]varietās est reverenda ex quā ēligere potuit.
0:00:43.880,0:00:46.597
Ēlectiō tamen eius mihi erat omnīnō necōpīnāta.
0:00:46.597,0:00:50.407
Ēn, in peregrīnātiōne familiae paucīs annīs[br]anteā ad Londinum, Lūtētiam, et Rōmam

0:00:52.859,0:00:57.176
Vīdit igitur pontem Rīvōaltum, basicilam[br]Sanctī Marcī, et portās arsenālis,
0:00:57.176,0:01:00.986
sed tempus fūgit, itaque ūnum[br]invīsum erat palātium dūcāle.
0:01:00.986,0:01:03.508
Et, īnversiōne quam vērē[br]nūmquam expectāre potēbam,
0:01:03.508,0:01:07.348
ea mē rogāvit ut hanc eximiam pelliculam[br]nūptiālem Venetiae dēcicem.
0:01:07.348,0:01:11.721
Ea vērē mē rogāvit, inexcitāta, incoācta.
0:01:11.721,0:01:14.654
Sciō vōs nōn stupefactōs, sed ego ēdepol eram!
0:01:14.654,0:01:21.097
Hīc utique sumus: dōnum ūnae amōrī,[br]quō loquor dē alterā amōre.
0:01:21.097,0:01:23.455
Vocabula eius, nōn mea.
0:01:23.455,0:01:25.765
Itaque, ut palātium ducāle melius approbēmus,
0:01:25.765,0:01:26.935
architectūram agāmus!
0:01:26.935,0:01:34.614
Forō Europaeō historiā arteque maximī mōmentī[br]situm, hoc palātium erat cor reīpūblicae
0:01:34.614,0:01:39.008
quae plūs quam mille annōs restāvit et terrās[br]habēbat in Italiā septentriōnālī continentī
0:01:39.008,0:01:41.266

0:01:41.266,0:01:45.733
Ab urbe contidā aetāte novā mediaevālī[br]usque ad captam ā Napoleōnī annō 1797,
0:01:45.733,0:01:50.163
Venetia historiā suī generis fuit[br]dē rēbus politicīs et artibus.
0:01:50.163,0:01:53.995
Plūrima dē illō iam dīxī multīs aliīs in locīs,
0:01:53.995,0:01:58.499

0:01:58.499,0:02:02.955
Ēn Venetia in incipiō nōn vērē erat... Venetia.
0:02:02.955,0:02:05.757
Prima urbs in lacū erat Torcellum īnsula,
0:02:05.757,0:02:09.956
et posteriōrī dīmidiō saeculō septingentēsimō[br]rempūblicam regēbāt Metamaucum īnsula.
0:02:09.956,0:02:14.564
Postquam autem īnsula paene capta est[br]ā Byzantīnīs et Francīs ūnā oppugnāntibus
0:02:14.564,0:02:15.465
—fābula longa—
0:02:15.465,0:02:20.512
dux sīve doge rempūblicam locāvit[br]in īnsulīs Rīvō Altō sitīs,
0:02:20.512,0:02:24.098
ubi castellum aedificāvit quod[br]obsidiōnēs superāre valdē spērāvit.
0:02:24.098,0:02:30.558
Aestheticae certē nōn erant magnī mōmentī,[br]et prīmum castellum Byzantīnō castellō simile erat:
0:02:30.558,0:02:35.420
lapidea moenia alba et rosea, mūrī crēnātī,[br]fossa circumdāns, firmum quam firmissimē potest
0:02:35.420,0:02:39.828
—rē vērā “satis prō opere pūblicō,”[br]nam castellum nōn modo domum dogis,
0:02:39.828,0:02:43.798
sed etiam officīnas pūblicas, cūriās,[br]carcerēs, et armāmentāria continēbat.
0:02:43.798,0:02:47.658
Cūr enim rempūblicam defendendam cūrēs[br]sine gladiīs magnificīs?
0:02:47.658,0:02:52.000
Saeculīs praeteriīs et Venetiā rēspūblica[br]mercātōria Maris Nostrī prīmāria factā
0:02:52.000,0:02:57.390
dogēs locum suum renovāre cōnstituērunt[br]et “castello” in “palazzo” exstruere.
0:02:57.390,0:03:01.864
Itaque decāde 1170 Ziani doge palātium[br]renovāvit novīs tabulātīs superiōribus,
0:03:01.864,0:03:07.421
mūrīs columnātīs, duābus turrīs acūtīs,[br]et porticibus iūcundīs inter lacum et palātium
0:03:07.421,0:03:11.372
etiam inter palātium et basilicam[br]Sanctī Marcī nūper aedificātam.
0:03:11.372,0:03:15.630
Aedēs dogis locātae sunt in alā orientī[br]iūxtā canālem, cūriae et bibliothēca
0:03:15.630,0:03:19.027
in alā occidentī iūxtā forum,[br]et pleraeque officīnae pūblicae

in alā merīdiānā aquam spectantēs.
0:03:20.853,0:03:25.324
Eādem fōrmā fundāmentālī erat[br]—ecce alterum alterō similissimum—
0:03:25.324,0:03:28.519
sed hae renovātiōnēs significant[br]mūtātiōnem vocis magnam.
0:03:28.519,0:03:32.754
Prīmum aedificium erat castellum ad rempūblicam[br]ab omnibus orbis terrārum defendendam,
0:03:32.754,0:03:36.272
sed secundum erat dēclārātiō—immō cavilla!
0:03:36.272,0:03:39.390
Cum opulenta architectūra gothica ecclēsiīs sōlīs esset
0:03:39.390,0:03:42.010
atque castella rēgālia sēcūritātī nec decorī,
0:03:42.010,0:03:48.600
ecce ōrnātissimum palātium saeculārium[br]in margine maris situm totō mundō aspectābile,
0:03:48.600,0:03:52.510
firmum stāns quia hostēs[br]id nūllō modō afficere potēbant.
0:03:52.510,0:03:57.334
Apud historiam mediaevālem sīc agere paene aequat[br]sē immortālem glōriārī.
0:03:57.334,0:04:01.324
Saecula etiam postera ut testantur… vērē, aliquid erant.
0:04:01.324,0:04:02.145
hahahae
0:04:02.145,0:04:06.315
Itaque populus Venetiānus saecula postera[br]palātium nempe magnificentiōrem fēcērunt!
0:04:06.315,0:04:10.315
Saeculō millēsimō trecentēsimō inceptūrō[br]Maius Concilium quāsdam familiās nōbilēs
0:04:10.315,0:04:14.904
sēlēgit quōrum virīs officium gerere[br]et rēs iūcundās reīpūblicae agere licēbat.
0:04:14.904,0:04:19.794
Maggior Consiglio propter hoc[br]plūrimīs virīs complētum est brevī tempore,
0:04:19.794,0:04:22.744
itaque annō 1340 Gradenigo doge[br]alam merīdiānam amplificāvit
0:04:22.744,0:04:24.741
ut maiōrem cameram conciliārium contineat.
0:04:24.741,0:04:27.770
Hīc palātium fōrmam nōbis nōtam sumit:
0:04:27.770,0:04:30.252
duplicī ōrdine columnātō cum acūtīs arcibus gothicīs
0:04:30.252,0:04:33.023
et superiōrī dīmidiō faciē albā roseāque decorātō.
0:04:33.023,0:04:37.691
Saeculō post Foscari doge alam[br]occidentem amplificāvit eādem faciē,
0:04:37.691,0:04:40.861
itaque continuitam habet. Pulchrē!
0:04:40.861,0:04:46.441
Foscari quōque aedificāvit gothicissimam[br]Portam della Chartā quae forō dūcit in platēam,
0:04:46.441,0:04:50.624
altera etiam faciēs portae decāde 1480[br]operta est magnificō arcū triumphālī
0:04:50.624,0:04:55.846
—brevī tempore antequam tota ala oriēns annō 1483 flammīs cōnsūmitur!
0:04:55.846,0:04:57.779
Fātum nōn mox abitūrum.
0:04:57.779,0:05:02.526
Cubiculum dogis repente patefactum[br]celeriter alterā alā orientī opertum est
0:05:02.526,0:05:05.741
modō Renāscentiae novissimō: neoclassicismō.
0:05:05.741,0:05:10.931
Architectūra Venetiae gothica ūtitur[br]arcibus acūtīs, illīs quadrifoliīs,
0:05:10.931,0:05:15.727
et audāciter ūnō alterō colōre praeter album[br](hīc roseō).
0:05:15.727,0:05:20.545
Sententia modī neoclassicī:[br]“Tantum marmor album, modō Rōmānōrum simile.”
0:05:20.545,0:05:23.843
Incertum num hī modī concordent.
0:05:23.843,0:05:27.125
Disputātiōnēs internae annō 1498 dēsinēbant
0:05:27.125,0:05:33.925
cum patefacerētur archiarchitectum[br]Antonio Rizzo pecūlātum esse, quī tum fūgit.
0:05:33.925,0:05:38.351
Aedificiō modo incohātō[br]Pietro Lombardo opificiō praefectus est.
0:05:38.351,0:05:42.092
Nōbiliter nōn est pecūlātus,[br]sed eius consilium novum
0:05:42.092,0:05:45.041
consiliō anteriōrī pretiōsius multō erat.
0:05:45.041,0:05:49.618
Itaque ratiōne aerāriī reīpūblicae…[br]commercium aequum.
0:05:49.618,0:05:55.148
Ala neoclassica inceptō saeculō millēsimō[br]sescentēsimō perfecta est ponte suspīriōrum famōsō,
0:05:55.148,0:05:59.148
dē quō captī postrēmō Venetiam[br]aspiciēbant dum trānsiēbant
0:05:59.148,0:06:02.748
ā conclāvibus palātiī carcereīs[br]ad carcerem īnsolitē ornātum.
0:06:02.748,0:06:06.970
Paulō post aliae duae-et-dīmidia faciēs[br]platēae partim renovātae sunt
0:06:06.970,0:06:12.382
modō facieī neoclassicae cum duplicī ōrdine[br]modestō sed ēlegantissimō columnātō.
0:06:12.382,0:06:16.382
Hic fortasse nōn spectābilis vidētur,[br]cerebrō autem galacticō est,
0:06:16.382,0:06:20.660
nam eōrum arcūs modō ōrdinum classicōrum,[br]cum columnae īnferiōrēs simplicēs essent
0:06:20.660,0:06:23.249
superiōrēsque ōrnātiōrēs, exstrūctī sunt.
0:06:23.249,0:06:26.923
Ita ōrdō īnferior arcibus curvātīs modō Rōmānō,
0:06:26.923,0:06:30.903
ōrdō tamen superior arcibus acūtīs[br]modō Venetiae gothicō.
0:06:30.903,0:06:33.185
Simplex est sed ingeniōsum:
0:06:33.185,0:06:38.435
modum classicum[br]“superiōrēs ōrnātiōrēs” ad arcūs vertere
0:06:38.435,0:06:42.475
simul etiam radicēs urbis gothicās[br]honōrāre acūtīs superiōribus.
0:06:42.475,0:06:47.381
Cum quidem Venetia modum neoclassicum[br]omnīnō sumēret, adhūc gothicum Venetiae erat.
0:06:47.381,0:06:52.001
Mihi placet sēnsū abstractō,[br]faciēs tamen pulcherrima est:
0:06:52.001,0:06:57.440
marmor pallidus umbrās arcuum prōdūcit,[br]atque ecce discrīmen acre inter album et atrum.
0:06:57.440,0:07:02.749
Fōrmae arte sunt sculptae, minūta subtīlia,[br]nec tota faciēs difficilior quam dēbet.
0:07:02.749,0:07:06.131
Hāc palātiī parte ante omnēs aliās fruōr!
0:07:06.131,0:07:09.615
Ēn, incertum est inter puerum scelerātum [br]Rizzo, virum ēlegantem Lombardo,

0:07:27.559,0:07:30.670
Historiae nōn pertinet,[br]sed quaestiō mē valdē molestābat,

itaque vōbis dīcere necesse erat.
0:07:32.248,0:07:35.578
Mūtātiōnēs facieī ultimae factae sunt[br]postquam merīdiāna oriēnsque alae

0:07:36.861,0:07:40.077
ac cum nōtissimus architectūra[br]Andrea Palladio neoclassicus suādēret
0:07:40.077,0:07:42.678

0:07:42.678,0:07:45.358
Ēn, mē hoc dīcere numquam abhinc audiētis:
0:07:45.358,0:07:48.097
Deō grātiās nēminem consilium[br]istius Palladio sūmpsisse!
0:07:48.097,0:07:54.047
Faciem eōdem modō restrūxērunt, cupīditātī[br]tandem ēlegentiae intrā palātium indulsērunt.
0:07:54.047,0:07:57.385
Palātium interius ob ignēs ad anxietātem[br]frequentēs operibus saeculōrum

0:08:02.203,0:08:05.898
Splendidum, splendidum, nimissimē difficile.
0:08:05.898,0:08:11.564
Conclāvia tam ōrnātissima celeriter cōnfundunt,[br]sed quōque opere proprius īnspēctō

magna opera sunt celeberrimōrum[br]artificium historiae Venetiae.
0:08:19.567,0:08:21.683
Neque subtīlitātem petēbant:
0:08:21.683,0:08:25.275
cum pictūram 22x7 metra longam[br]pictōris Tintoretto nōmine “Paradiso”

0:08:31.037,0:08:32.990

0:08:32.990,0:08:36.812
Haec etiam “Fance” partem polīticam habēbat,[br]nam legatōs aliēnōs stupefaciēbat
0:08:36.812,0:08:38.578
quī ad agenda cum Venetiā advēnerant.
0:08:38.578,0:08:42.624
Diaetae dogis mīrābillimus ostentus sunt[br]potestātis opumque, quī peregrīnātōrēs dūcit
0:08:42.624,0:08:47.499
in scalās aureās et per ātrium scūtōrum,[br]conclāve tabulārum, et quod maximē mihi placet:

conciliātōrēs dogis illō locō[br]vestēs pūniceās gerēbant.
0:08:55.479,0:08:58.195
Hoc solum efficit ut hoc palātium[br]totī mundī optimum sit,
0:08:58.195,0:09:01.466
nam nūllum aliud palātium mihi nōtum[br]conclāve habet speciāliter

0:09:04.066,0:09:04.863
Ahem,
0:09:04.863,0:09:08.052
“Magnus rēx Britānnōrum[br]auditōrium petit cum dogē,

Praeter diaetās dogis, palātum omne[br]officium pūblicum cogitābile continēbat:

Profectō “palātium dūcāle” vocātur[br]quia doge ibi habitābat,
