...working during the late 15th century, when Florence blossomed in the humanist atmosphere of the Medici court before being swallowed up by the fire-and-brimstone fervor of the Dominican monk Savonarola. Along with several of Botticelli's delicate Madonnas, the show's highlights include a colored-ink Map of the Inferno illustration for Dante's The Divine Comedy, and St. Augustine in his cell, a fresco for Florence's Ognissanti church later transposed to canvas. It will go to Florence's Palazzo Strozzi (March 10-July 11) after the Paris run. The scion of a wealthy Montpellier family...
...willing to believe that he can do a Nixon in China. The U.S. has to play the role of making sure that both sides really do what they're supposed to do on the road map. But it requires the constant attention of the Administration at a very high level. I may be wrong, but I don't see that happening...

...Road to Ruin "Road map to hell," about the bus bombing in Jerusalem and the escalating violence between Israelis and Palestinians [Sept. 1], left one aspect unconsidered: since Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon cannot say publicly that he is against the road map for peace, he instead provokes Hamas and other Palestinian organizations by targeting their leaders. The Palestinians fall into the trap and overreact in seeking vengeance. Israel can then say the road map is not working and demand that the U.S. help crush Hamas and the Palestinians. If Israel were really interested in peace, it would have given...
...draws us a map, and we set out past construction crews, who help point us in the right direction. Mr. Truong wants to stay on the main highway, but we veer onto a smaller branch of the old trail. This remnant is still in use, big enough for a car-or, in today's case, several motorbikes, an oxcart and a flock of ducks. There's no jungle here, just flat earth and rice fields. When we reach the landmark of Dong Loc Junction, we see why: in a small museum is a photo of the same road taken...
