nn sarà molto conosciuta anke se però in effetti nn riesco capire neanke io. Comunque, puoi creare una pagina web su wiki a proposito della leggenda anke se penso proprio ke il motivo scaturisca dal fatto ke sn in poki a conoscere questa leggenda. Infatti, a parte due o tre compagni della mia classe, nessuno la sapeva con certezza e molti nn sapevano neanke di cs stavo parlando.
Uskebasi era una specie di filosofo vissuto ai tempi dei Babilonesi, o giù di lì. Fu incaricato da un re di scrivere un libro che spiegasse il senso della vita. Uskebasi rimase nel deserto un po' di tempo; quando tornò, consegnò il libro al suo sovrano, e quindi, subito dopo, si tolse la vita.
Turbato da questo episodio, il re ordinò ad un altro sapiente di corte di leggere il libro di Uskebasi: questi, dopo averlo finito, si tolse la vita. Per questo motivo, il re fece distruggere il libro.
più di questo non ho trovato...strano...
Ho trovato, la storia, ma è in inglese. Se ti interessa, prova a tradurla:
" During his reign King Salomon, the greatest king of Israel, blessed by God with the wisdom of the ages which no mortal would ever match, became obsessed with knowledge during the peak of his power. He gathered around a moltitude of sages and great men, questioning them on all the knowledge they had, on arcane arts, lost scripts, everything he could think of (no internet back then). His most obsessive question was the oldest one of them all: what is the meaning of life?
He questioned hundreds of wise men, until he finally met Uskebasi, a pilgrin sage from the far east (now it's believed that he was indian). Legend has it that Uskebasi was related to some pagan divinity, and used to ride a white rabbit the size of an oxe, with red eyes and who moved quietly like a shadow. Uskebasi retired in solitude and remained in silence for 10 years, during which he meditated on the meaning of life. At the end of the 10 years he had the answer, but the truth was so horrible that he decided never to tell anyone, for just the hearing of such truths could drive a man to insanity. He instead wrote all his findings in a tome, and hid the tome so that no-one would ever find it. He then disappeared from circulation and was never heard from again. He never spoke another word, but rode throughout the world in a state of immortality the gods granted him for his wisdom, with his white rabbit, and was from that day on known as the Lord of Silence.
Many years after, legend has it, some christian monks retrieved the tome, and they read it. On the leather-bound cover of the tome there was written "I am Uskebasi. I am he who is silent. I have the answers to all your riddles. Question me, and be satisfied. And then you shall disappear in madness" (or something like that). The monks who read it went crazy. The leaders of their order then decided that in order to protect the world from these terrible truths coated the tome with a porous venom, which could kill a man in a few minutes, but brought no pain, just madness. So the legend says that from that day on everyone who even touched the book would die an insane death, usually killing themselves from the madness, but also from the shock received by receiving the answers written in the book written by Uskebasi.
