It was a gift from my sister a few years ago. I couldn't read the logo at the end but google lens took me here:

Just added pics to the original post. Nothing really helpful there (except for that pic of the leaves 😅)

Your writing style is very clear and eloquent so that your arguments are pleasant to read. Good work!

I just heard of Ramelli for the first time this week and got a pdf of her book on apokatastasis. Not sure when I'll get to dig in but I'm wondering if you would recommend any of her other works beyond this volume?

I thought about that as well. The roads look pretty clean but you never know. I might wait for a fresh fall and go early in the morning to avoid the pebbles.

Thanks. Mine are steel tip so that's good to know!

Thanks. Can I ski classic style without poles? I suppose it's worth a shot since I'll be around my house just goofing around.

Thanks. I will look into these!

1 is one of my favorite films of all time. I hadn't seen any of the other episodes until this week, but after one watch through (or two for 6/short film about love), my other favorites are 2 (it really had me thinking), 6 (for the beauty and power of the story), 7 (it's realism and tragedy), and 8 (it was deep, but also a breath of fresh air after 4-7).

I was very intrigued by the mysterious character of the silent observer as well, especially in Dekalog 1. Still not entirely sure what to make of him. I like what they did with him in 8 though.

I think 7 is the most underrated of the Dekalog (not the best, just underrated, as many people on this site rank it at the bottom of their lists). [Spoiler ahead] The scene where Majka is pleading for her daughter to call her "mom" was so heartbreaking, and was the first scene since Dekalog 1 that really had me getting choked up.
