	The Annotated "Ship of Fools"
		that a ship of fools referred to the practice of putting the local 'insanes' onto ships to help as crew people; supposedly, 'regular' people thought that the fools, shipmen, and the sea all had an affinity for each other.
		so, when a new ship would port in a town, people would come and have a chuckle at the expense of the kind 'fools.' so, the sea was an escape for these well-wishing souls from the cruel sea of humanity on the mainland.
		Thus, "Ship of Fools" crisscrossed the sea and canals of Europe with their comic and pathetic cargo of souls.

	The Ship of Fools by Greg Norminton (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Hanging in the Louvre is the painting by Heironymous Bosch which gives this book both its title and the front cover.
		The painting also serves as the primary source of narrative for Gregory Norminton’s debut novel, an audacious literary gambit that takes each of the characters from the painting and gives them, well, character.
		Norminton has crafted his novel on the assumption that each of the characters has a tale to tell, and thus stranded on the ship going nowhere, each of them proceed to tell the boat a fable, with or without moral, to pass the time.

	WebMuseum: Bosch, Hieronymus
		During his lifetime Bosch's works were in the inventories of noble families of the Netherlands, Austria, and Spain, and they were imitated in a number of paintings and prints throughout the 16th century, especially in the works of Pieter Bruegel the Elder.
		Many of his paintings are devotional, and there are several on the theme of the Passion.
		Although his pictures, with their weird animals and monsters, look as if they belong to the Middle Ages, they are not too unlike some of the paintings that are being produced today by painters who are called surrealists.

	Ross Barber Installation Artist - Ship of Fools Jardin de Wilts
		Thus, "Ships of Fools" crisscrossed the seas and canals of Europe with their comic and pathetic cargo of souls.
		It is possible that these ships of fools, which haunted the imagination of the entire early Renaissance, were pilgrimage boats, highly symbolic cargoes of madmen in search of their reason: some went down the Rhineland rivers toward Belgium and Gheel; others sailed up the Rhine toward the Jura and Besancon.
		Confined on the ship, from which there is no escape, the madman is delivered to the river with its thousand arms, the sea with its thousand roads, to that great uncertainty external to everything.

	The Ship of Fools by BOSCH, Hieronymus
		In The Ship of Fools " Bosch is imagining that the whole of mankind is voyaging through the seas of time on a ship, a small ship, that is representative of humanity.
		The fools are not the irreligious, since promiment among them are a monk and a nun, but they are all those who live ``in stupidity''.
		The sinister and monstrous things that he brought forth are the hidden creatures of our inward self-love: he externalizes the ugliness within, and so his misshapen demons have an effect beyond curiosity.

		She is the last of 200 such ships that once brought forests of lumber so California could build the cities that, seemingly overnight, tilted America's economic center forever westward.
		If the ship's deck, hold, or any other of the tightly interlocking pieces forming her vast body collapses, the love affair between the Wapama and her admirers may finally end in the manner of literature's great romances -- death.
		There was only enough money available to save some of the park's ailing ships, the logic went, and the Wapama was so decrepit that repairing her would suck up money at the expense of the rest of the museum.

	Carnival Valor Review
		The lower levels of these rooms stretch the entire width of the ship and are open in the middle, allowing those not along the outer walls a quieter, less claustrophobic dining experience.
		This was a godsend for a ship that has nary a single intimate lounge to enjoy a quiet pre-dinner cocktail or a late night tete-a-tete where you aren't pummeled by acoustic levels that would drive deadheads to order earplugs or cigarette smoke clouds so thick they created a new category of pollutant: third-hand smoke.
		The ship, however, does make good use of the room's capabilities, with two production shows (one for each formal night), a tribute to nightclubs around the world, and a review based on the music and trends of the 1980's.

		Ship of Fools is required viewing, particularly for those wanting to find some reason for World War II and the Holocaust.

		Bartolomeo Aguilera, the story's narrator, gives a haunting picture of life on the Argonos, a starship that is home to generations of humans born aboard her; no one remembers the ship's origins--its birthplace may have been Earth--but it drifts year after year "almost at random through the galaxy," without apparent purpose or goal.
		Nikko, the ship's captain, barely averts a mutiny as several hundred passengers would rather take their chances on the planet than stay on the ship any longer.
		The decision is made to attach the two ships together, and tow the alien ship to an intelligent civilization (there has to be one somewhere) as a peace offering.

		There appear in Mad Meg the armies of mon-sters, the conflagrations, and the battles inspired by the chaos of Bosch; the same ship from Bosch's Ship of Fools is in the distance, as well as an upturned funnel, which appeared in The Cure of Folly.
		If this interpretation is correct, then the re-markable thing is not that he was able to paint her with such power but that he decided to paint her at all.
		This painting is of one of the Dancing Manias of the middle ages, at Molenbeek, which occurred and was observed, and drawn in sketch form by Breughel in 1564, and later painted by his son.

	Starship Modeler -E.V.E. (Exploration Vessel of Earth) Review
		The E.V.E.-saucer (Exploration Vessel of Earth) made by Lightforce is a ship inspired by those classic icons like the JUPITER 2 or C-57-D. A saucer-shaped vessel, flown by the "earthlings“.
		Besides from that a little (but a bit uninspired) stand is there too, and the stuff that makes it really beautifull: a cleverly-designed lighting kit, made with a round cell battery, a LED-part with rotating lights (you can see the effect in a short video sequence I made), a magnet and some fixing parts.
		I didn`t paint the "reactor core“ on the lower saucer and the feather-detail at the upper saucer.

		These paintings have a rough surface from the application of paint; this contrasts with the traditional Flemish style of paintings, where the smooth surface attempts to hide the fact that the painting is man-made.
		Towards the end of his life, Bosch's style changed and he created paintings with a small number of large figures who appear to almost leave the painting and stand close to the observer.
		Bosch never dated his paintings and may have signed only some of them (other signatures are certainly not his).

	Albrecht Durer - Printer-friendly - MSN Encarta
		In Basel and later in Strasbourg, Dürer made illustrations for several publications, including Sebastian Brant's Das Narrenschiff (Ship of Fools, translated 1507) in 1494.
		During this early period of his life, between his apprenticeship and his return to Nürnberg in 1494, Dürer's art demonstrates his extreme facility with line and his keen observation of detail.
		These qualities are especially evident in a series of self-portraits, including an early drawing (1484, Albertina, Vienna) done when he was 13, a thoughtful portrait drawn in 1491 (University Collections, Erlangen, Germany), and a painting of himself as an extremely confident young man (1493, Louvre, Paris).

	Issue of May 22, 2006 -- Page 3
		Dear Word Detective: I was wondering where the term "Ship of Fools" came from.
		The only reference I found (I didn't really search all that hard, though) was supposedly German in origin: "Narrenschiffe," the "Ship of Fools," into which a community would put all its lunatics and sail them off down the river to "anywhere-but-here." It doesn't seem a plausible origin for the term.
		Coincidentally, that was the same year that the most famous modern incarnation of "Ship of Fools," the movie version of Katherine Anne Porter's 1962 novel of the same name, hit the big screen with, as they say, an all-star cast.
