Inquisitor 1178

[Ripper]

I've got all the grid filled in, but, I have no idea about the 21 squares to highlight!
I'm sure it's nothing to do with Alice, Dylan Thomas or the Bible! - any hints would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance

[bellabee]

nothing to do with them, no. - 2 different foreign phrases for a 'new start'

[Ripper]

Thanks bellabee
I thought c****B******
might be something to do with it - but didn't know how
now to find the other one!

[bellabee]

[they touch + share 1]

[Ripper]

Thanks again bellabee
You are exceedingly clever!

[bellabee]

well [for a change] i actually know this latin phrase - art history lectures to do with gombrich and/or malevich if memory serves. -so [for a change] i do actually feel a bit clever - thank you ripper! .......mind you, it was a all very long time ago.....

[bellabee]

....'a all' would be better the other way round though [what is it that goes before a fall again?]

[Ripper]

Hi bellabee
I also did Art History so must get my brain 'clanking'
Thanks again!

[Ripper]

Hi (again!) bellabee
I've scoured my prase books, looked up Gombrich & Malevich and I'm still none the wiser!
Any chance of another hint?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Ripper, not sure if bellabee is around at the moment..but if I will do
Suggest you look for the Latin phrase in a philosophical concept used most famously by John Locke.

[Ripper]

Thanks slaney
I'll have a look at that
Wish I was as clever!

[Ripper]

Thanks again slaney
Eureka - I've got it!!!
