Summary
[edit]DescriptionWiki logo The Cunctator.png |
English: The logo is inspired in the former Wikipedia's logo, when it was Nupedia auxiliar project (see). It's made by superposing a Thomas Hobbes's phrase on a circle, using fisheye effect to simulate a sphere. The phrase is a quote from "Leviathan" by Thomas Hobbes, (Part I, Chapter VI), which says:
"Man is distinguished, not only by his reason, but by this singular passion from other animals, which is a lust of the mind, that by a perseverance of delight in the continual and indefatigable generation of knowledge, exceeds the short vehemence of any carnal pleasure." Español: El logo está inspiredo en el anterior logo de Wikipedia, cuando era un proyecto auxiliar de Nupedia (ver). Está hecho mediante la superposición de una frase de Thomas Hobbes sobre un círculo, usando el efecto de ojo de pez para simular una esfera. La frase es una cita tomada de "Leviathan" por Thomas Hobbes, (Parte I, Capítulo VI), que dice: "El hombre se distingue singularmente no sólo por su razón, sino también por esa pasión, de otros animales, en los cuales el apetito nutritivo y otros placeres de los sentidos son de tal modo predominantes que borran toda preocupación de conocer las causas; éste es un anhelo de la mente que por la perseverancia en el deleite que produce la continua e infatigable generación de conocimiento, supera a la fugaz vehemencia de todo placer carnal." |
