"Finial" is a word in ENGLISH
The knot or bunch of foliage, or foliated ornament, that
forms the upper extremity of a pinnacle in Gothic architecture;
sometimes, the pinnacle itself.
The values we rightly associate with the modern age - the "liberty, equality, and fraternity" of the French revolution - are all endangered today not by the dead hand of tradition but by modernity itself, and they can be salvaged only by moving beyond it.
