The symbolic meaning suggested in the "Hunt of the Unicorn" series of tapestries is the Annunciation.
The "Hunt of the Unicorn" is a very famous series of seven tapestries from the period of 1495-1505. The theme of the tapestries involves a group of noblemen and hunters who are chasing a unicorn. There has been a lot of debate around the meaning of the paintings and many believe that it is an allegorical representation of the Christian celebration of the Annunciation, where the Angel Gabriel announced to the Virgin Mary that she would conceive and become the mother of Jesus.
The smaller units would be called “Measures.”
Is the play "The Bourgeois in the Nobility" by Jean-Baptiste Moliere relevant today?
Yes, in my opinion, Jean-Baptiste Moliere’s play The Bourgeois in the Nobility is very relevant today. It remains topical because the play in the play is not at all about estates (commoners and noblemen), but about people's vanity. And now vanity blossoms in full bloom. Therefore, many modern people could see themselves in Mr. Jourdain if they wanted to.
Who can be called now "Mr. Jourdain"? Yes, many! For example, those who are trying hard to seem "successful", "wealthy", buying status items for themselves and getting into debt. Or those who imagine themselves "not like everyone else" and with all their might emphasize their "elitism". Or those citizens who demonstratively despise immigrants from the village and try not to mention their own grandmother living in the village. In other words, all the many people who try to seem different than they are - all of them are in some ways Messrs Jourdins. Therefore, the play by Jean-Baptiste Moliere "The Bourgeois in the Nobility" was not at all outdated.
