	Three Unities - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
		The three unities or classical unities are rules for drama derived from Aristotle's Poetics.
		The unity of time: a play should represent an action that takes approximately the same amount of time as the play; years should not pass during the hours a play takes.
		The classical unities were influential in dramatic criticism until Victor Hugo's Ernani (1844); one of the things that made that play so controversial at its debut was its violation of these rule of classicism.

	Triads of Bardism
		Three things are necessary in Abred: the least of all animation, and thence a beginning; the material of all things, and thence increase, which cannot take place in any other state; and the formation of all things out of the dead, hence diversity of existence.
		Three things indispensably connected with Abred: forgetfulness for it cannot be otherwise; the escape of death or evil and Cythraul; and the increase of life and goodness, by being divested of evil in the escapes of death; and this from the love of God embracing all things.
		Three things that can never be annihilated, from their unavoidable possibilities: form of existence; quality of existence; and the utility of existence; for these will, divested of their evils, exist for ever, whether animate or inanimate, as beautiful and good varieties of the circle Gwynvyd.

	Theatre technique - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Classical unities of time, action and place were the main principles of French neo-classical drama during part of the 17th century.
		The unity of place, that of the confinement of the action in a play to one locality only, was not mentioned at all.
		The effect of the three unities on French drama during this period was that their presentation became very restrictive, and it was only when later dramatists began to avoid mentioning specific times and places that the presentation of plays became more creative again.

		Three are the circles (states) of existence: The circle of Light where dwells nothing but God, and only God can traverse it the circle of Chaos where all things by nature arise from death the Circle of awareness where all things spring from life.
		All things animate are of three states of existence: chaos or death, liberty in humanity and felicity of Heaven.
		Three are the hindrances: lack of endeavor to obtain knowledge; non-attachment to god; attachment to evil.

		Unity of Place (in 1570) means that the scenes of the play must occur in the same location.
		Unity of Action, suggested by the Greeks, means that only one major plot can be performed in the course of a play.

		The number is also important in the Christian tradition: Christ represents one third of the trinity (the father, son and holy ghost), was visited by the three wise men and 33 years later - when Peter disowned him three times - rose on the third day after the crucifixion (he died at 3pm).

		Since the unity of use and geographic unity were present, the statutory requirements were met and the taking involved all of the property.
		The trial court held that there was geographic unity between all of the tracts and the jury concluded that the general and special benefits to tracts A, B, C, and D outweighed the damages for the taking of 11.411 acres, awarding zero damages.
		In this case, a paved road divided three parcels, “indicating there is no physical unity.” Unlike Tickle, the Court found that there was also no unity of use with one parcel being used as a garage, a second as a parking lot, and the condemned parcel being used only as a billboard location.

		Though a unity always possesses more than one aspect of multiplicity, we refer to the unity grammatically as if we were addressing its synthoton, which has a multiplicity of one.
		The prototons, antecedent to the synthoton in the ascending realitization of the unity, are thus the pre-existons and the protoplane is the pre-existum.

		In England, it may be observed the unities are almost totally disregarded; the audience are carried to and fro, almost from one side of the world to the other, and consequently during any indefinite space of time.
		It is evident that Shakspeare is the father of that unbounded license, to be Observed in the English dramas.

	The Unities
		HERE is little need today to speak of "The Three Unities," which once were the panoply of war of critics.
		The only Unity that has any reason in it, and that really is observed at all in all dramatic works, is the "Unity of Action." [1] This means, of course, that the interest of the play shall be one throughout.
		1 Lessing says--"The unity of action was the chief dramatic law of the ancients; the unity of time and place were, so to speak, the natural consequences of it, which perhaps they would not have observed more than was required, had it not been for the introduction of the Chorus.

		The three unities or classical unities are rules for drama derived from a mistaken interpretation of a particular passage in Aristotle's Poetics.
		Unlike his prescriptive attitude regarding the plot (unity of action), Aristotle here merely remarks on the typical duration of a tragedy's action, and does not suggest any kind of imperative that it always ought to be so.
		The classical unities were influential in dramatic criticism until Victor Hugo's Hernani (1844); one of the things that made that play controversial at its debut was its violation of these rules of classicism.

		UNITIES, THREE (Also known as the "Three Dramatic Unities"): In the 1500s and 1600s, critics of drama expanded Aristotle's ideas in the Poetics to create the rule of the "three unities." A good play, according to this doctrine, must have three traits.
		The second is unity of time, meaning that the events should be limited to the two or three hours it takes to view the play, or at most to a single day of twelve or twenty-four hours.
		It is notable that Shakespeare often broke the three unities in his plays, which may explain why these rules later were never as dominant in England as they were in French and Italian Neoclassical drama.
