17世紀建築の尖塔が倒壊 デンマークの歴史的建造物で火災デンマークの首都コペンハーゲンで16日、17世紀に建てられた歴史的建造物の旧証券取引所で火災が発生し、シンボルの尖塔が焼け落ちるなどした。
ボルセン証券取引所はコペンハーゲンにある最古の建物の一つ。かつては王宮として使用され、現在は国会議事堂などが置かれるクリスチャンスボー城の目と鼻の先にある。
旧証券取引所は改装中で、足場が組まれ、保護用ビニールに覆われていた。
火災により、ドラゴンがあしらわれた象徴的な尖塔が倒壊した。
ヤコブ・エンゲルシュミット文化相は、築400年のデンマークの文化遺産が焼失したと述べた。火災が鎮火されたのは出火の数時間後だった。歴史的な絵画を保護しようと、市民が現場に駆けつけた。デンマークの画家、ペーダー・セヴェリン・クロイヤー氏の作品「コペンハーゲン証券取引所より」も運び出された。
火災の原因は16日の時点で分かっていない。救急隊は工事用の足場が救急活動を難しくしていると語った。関係者によると、尖塔の周辺が最も激しく焼けていたという。
旧証券取引所は現在、デンマーク商工会議所が使用している。ブライアン・ミケルセン所長は、建物の半分近くが焼け落ちたが「何があろうと」再建すると誓った。

返信削除Early Cricket (Pre 1799)
There is a consensus of expert opinion that cricket may have been invented during Saxon or Norman times by children living in the Weald, an area of dense woodlands and clearings in south-east England. The first reference to cricket being played as an adult sport was in 1611, and in the same year, a dictionary defined cricket as a boys' game. There is also the thought that cricket may have derived from bowls, by the intervention of a batsman trying to stop the ball from reaching its target by hitting it away.
Village cricket had developed by the middle of the 17th century and the first English “county teams” were formed in the second half of the century, as “local experts” from village cricket were employed as the earliest professionals. The first known game in which the teams use county names is in 1709.
In the first half of the 18th Century cricket established itself as a leading sport in London and the south-eastern counties of England. Its spread was limited by the constraints of travel, but it was slowly gaining popularity in other parts of England and Women’s Cricket dates back to the 1745, when the first known match was played in Surrey.
In 1744, the first Laws of Cricket were written and subsequently amended in 1774, when innovations such as lbw, a 3rd stump, - the middle stump and a maximum bat width were added. The codes were drawn up by the “Star and Garter Club” whose members ultimately founded the famous Marylebone Cricket Club at Lord's in 1787. MCC immediately became the custodian of the Laws and has made revisions ever since then to the current day.
Rolling the ball along the ground was superseded sometime after 1760 when bowlers began to pitch the ball and in response to that innovation the straight bat replaced the old “hockey-stick” style of bat. The Hambledon Club in Hampshire was the focal point of the game for about thirty years until the formation of MCC and the opening of Lord's Cricket Ground in 1787.
Cricket was introduced to North America via the English colonies as early as the 17th century, and in the 18th century it arrived in other parts of the globe. It was introduced to the West Indies by colonists and to India by British East India Company mariners. It arrived in Australia almost as soon as colonisation began in 1788 and the sport reached New Zealand and South Africa in the early years of the 19th century.
cricketはコオロギという意味でもある。
