XIX. The dialog between consul and proconsul.

Cafe in Italy. At the table sit the Historian and Philosopher. They talk about creativity.

- Let to take an interest by your opinion, mister the Philosopher, - has spoken the Historian. - Yesterday has written a part of 'History of an Ancient World'. Under a conditional title 'The dialog between consul and proconsul'. I talk with you not very often. It would be interesting to hear your opinion.

The Philosopher in the answer has spoken:

- History of Ancient Rome ...

The Historian has moved a sheet of a paper to the Philosopher. The text was not of large volume. Headline and a few sentences:

'The dialog between consul and proconsul

The Philosopher has completed the reading. His eyes focused on the cup of coffee standing in front of him.

Without having waited for any statement from the Philosopher, the Historian decided to ask:

- What will say, mister the Philosopher?

Philosopher silently stared at the coffee. Has sighed. He moved the Cup:

- Again to drink?

The Historian shrugged his shoulders:

- 'Each pays for himself!'

The Philosopher was silent. He started to get up from the table to head for the exit.

At the table standing nearby the conversation continued.

One of the tourists set up his thoughts:

- "... The Cossack to the Cossack discord ..." "... there was not even the possession of land shares ... but the Cossack, even the poorest and deprived, was the owner of the land share ...".

Other tourist appended:

- "And I fly there where accept!".

XX. Prince Henry the Navigator, Fernan Magellan, Juan Sebastian del Cano, Gonzalo Gomez de Espinosa, Francis Drake. The order and the improvising. An essay

The author devotes this essay to the 500th anniversary from start date of the first circumnavigation.

"Monday the 8th of September, we cast anchor near the mole of Seville, and discharged all the artillery.

Tuesday, we all went in shirts and barefoot, with a taper in our hands to visit the shrine of St. Maria of Victory, and of St. Maria de Antigua.

Then, leaving Seville, I went to Valladolid, where I presented to his Sacred Majesty Don Carlos, neither gold nor silver, but things much more precious in the eyes of so great a Sovereign. I presented to him among other things, a book written by my hand of all the things that had occurred day by day in our voyage.

The knight Antonio Pigafetta" [1]

1. Foreword

The reading of the books about the great travellers, mariners, seafarers, has resulted me in speculations about "order" and about "improvising" in a seamanship.

These concepts - generalizing. "Order" are perceived rationality, high intellect, planned use, organization, discipline. "Improvising" - ability to intuitive knowledge, development of talent, suddenness and other concepts of this series.

On one "pole" - the figure Prince Henry the Navigator, who is personifying system approach, rationality advanced intellect, planing, organization, discipline, order.

On the other "pole" - figure Francis Drake, personifying capacity to intuitive knowledge, development of talent, suddenness, improvising.

As far as comparison of figures of Heinrich Moreplavatel and Francis Drake is lawful?

Clearly, that this persons played different roles in a history of a civilization.
