Love triangle

Henrik Ibsen

Phraseologism: Love triangle.

Meaning: A love or romantic relationship between an established couple and a third person.

Origin: The author of the expression is the Norwegian poet and playwright Henrik Ibsen (1828-1906). In his drama "Hedda Gabler" (1890), this expression was first heard in a dialogue between Hedda and assessor Braque (act. 2, fig. 1): "Marriage: All I want is to have a good, devoted circle of close friends, where I could serve in word and deed and be able to come and go like a trusted friend. Hedda: Master of the house, you mean? Marriage (bows): Frankly speaking, better than the hostess. union in essence is a great convenience for all parties Hedda: Yes, I missed the third many times ... When Hedda's husband appears on the scene, Assessor Brak adds: "The triangle closes." ", "Nora", "Doctor Shtokman", "Builder Solnes", etc.) were very popular in Russia at the beginning of the XNUMXth century and were often staged, in particular, by the Moscow Art Theater. Initially, immediately after the appearance of Ibsen's play on the stage, under "triangle" meant quite calm, acceptable for all three relations between a family friend and married couple. Later, this expression began to mean a relationship of rivalry between one of the couple and the "third wheel", that is, it acquired a modern interpretation.

Random phraseology:

Love is blind.

Meaning:

1. About to someone's strange, incomprehensible at first glance choice (jokingly ironic). 2. About the importance of a serious, balanced, objective look at a loved one.

Origin:

For the first time in world literature, this idea is found in the ancient Greek philosopher Plato (c. 427-c. 347 BC) in his work "Laws": "Love blinds, for the lover becomes blind in relation to the object of his love."

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>
