Rose is a rose is a rose is a rose
The sentence "Rose is a rose is a rose is a rose."
 was written by Gertrude Stein as part of the 1913 poem "Sacred Emily", which appeared in the 1922 book "Geography and Plays".
 In that poem, the first "Rose" is the name of a person.
 Stein later used variations on the sentence in other writings, and "A rose is a rose is a rose" is among her most famous quotations, often interpreted as meaning "things are what they are", a statement of the law of identity, "A is A".
 In Stein's view, the sentence expresses the fact that simply using the name of a thing already invokes the imagery and emotions associated with it, an idea also intensively discussed in the problem of universals debate where Peter Abelard and others used the "rose" as an example concept.
 As the quotation diffused through her own writing, and the culture at large, Stein once remarked, "Now listen!
 I’m no fool.
 I know that in daily life we don't go around saying 'is a ... is a ... is a ...' Yes, I’m no fool; but I think that in that line the rose is red for the first time in English poetry for a hundred years."
 ("Four in America").
Bieiris de Romans
Bieiris de Roman(s) (from "Bietris", also "Beatriz" or "Beatritz"; English: "Beatrice") was a trobairitz of the first half of the thirteenth century.
 Her birthplace was Romans near Montélimar.
 Other than her name, which includes her place of birth, nothing is known of the details of her life, which has led to a significant gap in knowledge for scholarship analyzing her work.
 She left behind one "canso", "Na Maria, pretz e fina valors" ("Lady Maria, in your merit and distinction"), addressed to another woman named Mary.
 The poem is written in the typical troubadour style of courtly love and has been consequently analyzed as a lesbian poem.
 Bieiris may, however, be simply writing from the masculine point of view, fully immersing herself in the masculinity of the genre.
 Nonetheless, the certain ascription of the poem to a woman makes it unlikely that there was any attempt to "fool" the audience: the poem is consequently emasculated.
 The "Na Maria" of the poem has even been interpreted as the Virgin Mary, and the sincerity and innocence of the lyrics do not disqualify it.
Burkhan Khaldun
The Burkhan Khaldun (Cyrillic: Бурхан Халдун) is one of the Khentii Mountains in the Khentii Province of northeastern Mongolia.
 The mountain or its locality is believed to be the birthplace of Genghis Khan as well as the location of his tomb.
 It is also the birthplace of one of his most successful generals; Subutai.
 The mountain is part of the 12000 km2 Khan Khentii Strictly Protected Area established in 1992.
 It had strong religious significance before Genghis Khan made it a powerful landmark, but is considered the most sacred mountain in Mongolia since it was designated as sacred by Genghis Khan.
 It was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site on 4 July 2015 under the title "Great Burkhan Khaldun Mountain and its surrounding sacred landscape."
 Under a Presidential Decree of 1955 the worship of this mountain has been formalised and the mountain declared a national monument.
 Its ecosystem is complex with unique biodiversity with flora of the Central Asian steppe.
 It has 50 species of fauna and 253 species of birds.
Sacred architecture
Sacred architecture (also known as religious architecture) is a religious architectural practice concerned with the design and construction of places of worship or sacred or intentional space, such as churches, mosques, stupas, synagogues, and temples.
 Many cultures devoted considerable resources to their sacred architecture and places of worship.
 Religious and sacred spaces are amongst the most impressive and permanent monolithic buildings created by humanity.
 Conversely, sacred architecture as a locale for meta-intimacy may also be non-monolithic, ephemeral and intensely private, personal and non-public.
Mount Ida
In Greek mythology, two sacred mountains are called Mount Ida, the "Mountain of the Goddess": Mount Ida in Crete; and Mount Ida in the ancient Troad region of western Anatolia (in modern-day Turkey) which was also known as the "Phrygian Ida" in classical antiquity and is the mountain that is mentioned in the Iliad of Homer and the Aeneid of Virgil.
 Both are associated with the mother goddess in the deepest layers of pre-Greek myth, in that Mount Ida in Anatolia was sacred to Cybele, who is sometimes called "Mater Idaea" ("Idaean Mother"), while Rhea, often identified with Cybele, put the infant Zeus to nurse with Amaltheia at Mount Ida in Crete.
 Thereafter, his birthplace was sacred to Zeus, the king and father of Greek gods and goddesses.
Spatial icon
The concept of the spatial icon, introduced by Alexei Lidov, plays a central role in hierotopy and is used to describe the perception of sacred spaces.
 Spatial icons are image-visions, that are evoked, for example, in the space of a temple or sanctuary.
 The spatial icon encompasses a broad range of components involved in the formation and definition of sacred spaces.
 It is a consciously created spatial image that transcends the material objects involved in its formation.
 A variety of plastic elements, including everything from buildings to decoration, and from murals to liturgical artifacts, work together to form a spatial icon.
 Sacred relics and iconic images often play an integral role in the creation of a comprehensive spatial image.
 Various dynamic and performative media also play a significant role, such as rituals and song, as well as the artistic manipulation of natural light, lighting and sounds, and also elements dealing with odor and touch.
 From this point of view, Medieval churches can be seen as spatial icons in which divine image-visions, such as Paradise or Heavenly Jerusalem, were incarnated in the sacred space by means of the various media employed without being directly depicted.
 The temples and sanctuaries of various religions were originally conceived, designed and created as spatial icons.
 In the Christian tradition in particular, impressive examples of spatial icons are to be found in re-creations of the Holy Land, or "New Jerusalems".
 In many cases, spatial icons were the work of specific authors; their art could be compared with that of contemporary film directors, for in both cases, there is the coordinated effort of various artists and specialists in shaping a single, comprehensive vision.
Hugh McGraw
Hugh McGraw (20 February 1931 – 28 May 2017) was a leading figure in contemporary Sacred Harp singing.
 He was the General Chairman of the committee that created the 1991 Denson revision of "The Sacred Harp" and played an important role in promoting the spread of Sacred Harp singing.
 Sacred Harp scholar Buell Cobb has called him "perhaps the chief promoter and good will agent of Sacred Harp music."
Threnodia Augustalis
The Threnodia Augustalis is a 517-line occasional poem written by John Dryden to commemorate the death of Charles II in February 1685.
 The poem was "rushed into print" within a month.
 The title is a reference to the classical threnody, a poem of mourning, and to Charles as a "new Augustus" (see Augustan literature).
 It is subtitled "A Funeral-Pindarique Poem Sacred to the Happy Memory of King Charles II," and is one of several poems on the subject published at the time (see 1685 in poetry).
Emily Dickinson Museum
The Emily Dickinson Museum is a historic house museum consisting of two houses: the Dickinson Homestead (also known as Emily Dickinson Home or Emily Dickinson House) and the Evergreens.
 The Dickinson Homestead was the birthplace and home from 1855–1886 of 19th-century American poet Emily Dickinson (1830–1886), whose poems were discovered in her bedroom there after her death.
 The house next door, called the Evergreens, was built by the poet's father, Edward Dickinson, in 1856 as a wedding present for her brother Austin.
 Located in Amherst, Massachusetts, the houses are preserved as a single museum and are open to the public on guided tours.
 The Emily Dickinson Home is a US National Historic Landmark, and properties contribute to the Dickinson Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
