paragraph: Léon Danchin

paragraph: Léon Danchin (21 June 1887 - 4 August 1938) was a French artist known for his drawings of animals, primarily sporting dogs. He was also a sculptor.

paragraph: Danchin was born in Lille (France) on 21 June 1887, the second of six children of Albert and Margaret Danchin. For centuries, the Danchin family lived in northern France, in Anchin in Hainaut, where the family name originated. In 1919, Danchin married Simone Meesemaecker.

paragraph: For ease of working, Danchin moved his family to Chantilly, close to Paris. His first works sold very well in France, and also in Belgium, the United States, and England. Danchin later moved to Bergues, in the French Flanders, where he was able to hunt regularly. It was during this period that he drew many of the hunting scenes for which he is renowned.

paragraph: Today, Galerie Hautecœur in Paris manages the re-productions of Danchin's art.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Events in his life are accounted in the Nihon Shoki and Kojiki, both written several decades after his death. His father's name and origin are unknown, as the written sources contradict one another, and may have been altered to glorify the genealogy of then-living clans.

paragraph: After reaching adulthood, Abe was a governor of Koshi Province. In 658, he defeated the Mishihase in "Watarishima" (which may mean Tsugaru Peninsula or Hokkaido) at the request of the native inhabitants. His men continued to raid and plunder in Hokkaido and Okushiri Island until 660, bringing numerous trophies and prisoners to court. His trophies included at least 2 live bears, 70 bear hides, and 353 prisoners. In March 660, local allies asked for his military assistance at Ishikari River in Hokkaido, where he was victorious again.

paragraph: In 662 his lord (soon to become the Emperor Tenji) assigned him and the captive prince Buyeo Pung to participate in an expedition to the Korean peninsula to restore the fallen allied kingdom of Baekje. Abe was assigned the command of the rear division out of three divisions available. His division was an entirely naval unit. He arrived on the continent in August 662 and was recalled after the defeat in the Battle of Baekgang in August 663.

paragraph: Ma Su

paragraph: Ma Su (190–228), courtesy name Youchang, was a military general and strategist of the state of Shu Han in the Three Kingdoms period of China. He was a younger brother of Ma Liang. Ma Su had conspicuous talent in military theories and was admired by the Shu chancellor Zhuge Liang. However, a tactical blunder by Ma Su at the Battle of Jieting resulted in Shu being dealt a huge defeat by Zhang He, a general of the rival state of Wei.

paragraph: Much dramatisation shrouds the death of Ma Su. In the historical novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" as well as the Peking opera "Loss of Jieting", Ma Su was said to have been executed on Zhuge Liang's order. However, according to the biographies of Ma Su and his close friend Xiang Lang in the "Records of the Three Kingdoms", Ma Su had actually attempted to escape after his defeat at Jieting, but was captured. He eventually died of illness in prison before the ordered execution could be carried out.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: A local of Yicheng, Xiangyang (present-day Yicheng, Hubei), Ma Su was one of the five brothers in the family, all of whom were renowned for their intellects, though Ma Su's elder brother Ma Liang was deemed to be the most talented among them all. Together with Ma Liang, Ma Su began his service under Liu Bei around 205, when Liu Bei was still a guest of Liu Biao in Jing Province (covering present-day Hubei and Hunan).

paragraph: Since the start, Liu Bei's chief advisor Zhuge Liang had been impressed by Ma Su's expansive knowledge in military strategy. At some point before 219, Ma Su was transferred to Yuexi, a troubled commandery in the south. Yuexi was home to numerous indigenous tribes, many of whom refused to accept Liu Bei’s authority. It was the site of a significant tribal revolt led by Gaodingyuan in 218. With help from Li Yan who bent Gaodingyuan in a battle in 218, Ma Su did well in keeping order in the commandery. Before Liu Bei died in 223, he warned Zhuge Liang that Ma Su was not as talented as he seemed and should not be given important appointments. However, Zhuge Liang did not heed the warning, and Ma Su was made a personal military consultant to Zhuge soon after Liu died. The two would often hold discussions from dawn to dusk.

paragraph: During the campaign against Meng Huo, Ma Su advised Zhuge Liang to win Meng Huo over to serve Shu by capturing and releasing him again until Meng Huo finally surrendered and joined Shu.

paragraph: Section::::Life.:Performance in Jieting.

paragraph: In 228, Zhuge Liang launched his Northern Expeditions against Wei, Ma Su also proposed a plot to remove Sima Yi from command by causing discord within Wei by spreading rumors that Sima Yi intended to rebel and Cao Rui then removed him from command. Many suggested appointing either Wei Yan or Wu Yi (吴懿) as the vanguard commander, but Zhuge Liang chose the callow Ma Su instead.

paragraph: Ma Su's forces encountered Zhang He's forces at Jieting. It was here that Ma Su made a serious tactical blunder. He had camped on top of a hill, believing the vantage point would provide him with a more advantageous position in terms of observation and a place of attack. The veteran general Wang Ping advised against Ma Su's decision, arguing that their water supply might be cut off and their forces surrounded. While his good counsel was rejected, Ma Su allowed Wang Ping to take 1,000 men and camp nearby the source of the Shu forces' water supply.

paragraph: As Wang Ping predicted, Zhang He took advantage of Ma Su's mistake by striking at the Shu camp's water supply. Scattering Wang Ping's much smaller force, he succeeded in cutting off the enemy's water supply. The parched soldiers of Shu were easily defeated when Zhang He then launched an offensive on the main camp itself.

paragraph: Section::::Life.:Records on Ma Su's death.

paragraph: Though he survived the battle, Ma Su's army was nearly annihilated (Wang Ping was able to regroup some scattered forces), so he was soon arrested and sentenced to execution by a reluctant Zhuge Liang as a way to soothe the masses. However, the addendum to Ma Liang's biography concerning Ma Su's death says Ma Su eventually died of illness in prison before an execution was actually carried out. Yet, another record from the biography of Xiang Lang stated that Xiang, as a close friend of Ma Su, assisted the latter in escaping by covering up Ma's jailbreak. Regardless, Ma Su was deemed by Zhuge Liang to hold major responsibility for the failure of the first Northern Expedition. Ma Su's wife and children were said to have been well taken care of by Zhuge Liang after Ma's death.

categories: 1530 births,Daimyo,1578 deaths,Uesugi clan

paragraph: Uesugi Kenshin

paragraph: Kenshin is famed for his honourable conduct, his military expertise, a long-standing rivalry with Takeda Shingen, his numerous campaigns to restore order in the Kantō region as the "Kanto Kanrei", and his belief in the Buddhist god of war—Bishamonten. In fact, many of his followers and others believed him to be the Avatar of Bishamonten, and called Kenshin "God of War".

paragraph: Section::::Name.

paragraph: His original name was Nagao Kagetora (長尾景虎). He changed his name to Uesugi Masatora (上杉政虎) when he inherited the Uesugi clan name in order to accept the official title of "Kantō Kanrei" (関東管領). Later he changed his name again to Uesugi Terutora (上杉輝虎) to honor the 13th "shōgun" Ashikaga Yoshiteru (足利義輝), and finally to Kenshin (上杉謙信) after he vowed to become a Zen-Buddhist; in particular, he would become renowned for being a devotee of Bishamonten.

paragraph: Kenshin is sometimes referred to as "The Dragon of Echigo" because of his fearsome skills in the martial arts displayed on the battlefield. His rival Takeda Shingen was called "The Tiger of Kai". In some versions of Chinese mythology (Shingen and Kenshin had always been interested in Chinese culture, especially the works of Sun Tzu), the Dragon and Tiger have always been bitter rivals who try to defeat one another, but neither is ever able to gain the upper hand. They fought several times at Kawanakajima.

paragraph: His ceremony of departure to war started with praying at the shrine of Bishamonten, a traditional farewell meal with the generals with three dishes (symbolizing good fortune) and three cups, which also symbolized good luck and onmyōdō's heaven, earth and man. It was followed by two shouts "Ei!" (Glory") and "O!" (Yes!) with the assembled troops, also repeated three times, and the army standard lowered to the generals as a way of respect. In the end, Kenshin re-dedicated to the war god with the "bow of Hachiman", and mounted his horse surrounded by three flag banners; first with the first character of the Bishamonten's name, second with the red rising sun on blue (Emperor's gift), and the warring dragon flag.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Born as Kagetora, he was the third or fourth son of the noted warrior Nagao Tamekage (長尾為景), and his life presents a unique story - he was not from the Uesugi, but Nagao clan. His father's family were the retainers of the Yamanouchi branch of the Uesugi clan, and his father has gained some renown with his military victories over his lords Uesugi Akisada, Sadanori and Funayoshi. However, in later years, Tamekage found himself at odds with the neighboring Ikkō-ikki of Hokuriku, and as the political power in the region started to shift in favor of the Ikkō (due largely to the sudden rise of Hongan-ji), the situation for Echigo quickly deteriorated. It came to a peak in 1536, when Kenshin's father gathered up an army and marched westward. However, upon arriving at Sendanno (December 1536) in Etchū, his forces were suddenly attacked by Enami Kazuyori, and in the resulting battle Tamekage himself was slain, and his army put to flight.

paragraph: The impact back at Echigo was immediate. Nagao Harukage, Tamekage's eldest son, immediately made his bid for control of the Nagao, and succeeded in this claim after a power struggle which resulted in the death of one of his brothers, Kageyasu. Kenshin was removed from the conflict and relocated to Rinsen-ji temple, where he spent his life from 7 to 14 dedicated to study, martial arts and Zen.

paragraph: Section::::Early rise.

paragraph: At the age of 14, Kenshin was suddenly contacted by Usami Sadamitsu and a number of other acquaintances of his late father. They urged the young Nagao son to go to Echigo and contest his older brother's rule. It would seem that Harukage hadn't proven the most effective or inspiring leader (probably due to ill health), and his failure to exert control and gain support of the powerful "kokujin" families had resulted in a situation which was nearly to the point of tearing the province apart. As the story is told, at first Kenshin was reluctant to take the field against his own brother, but was eventually convinced that it was necessary to the survival of Echigo. At the age of 15 he was placed in joint command of Tochio castle, making a reputation for himself by successfully defending it against the rebels who were plotting against the Uesugi, and Kenshin succeeded in wresting control of the clan from Harukage in 1548. Harukage stepped down from the lead of the clan and provincial government, and gave the titles to his younger brother. Harukage died five years later in 1553. At the age of 19 Kenshin became the head of the family and entered the Kasugayama Castle, but still as the retainer of the Uesugi clan.

paragraph: In the year 1551, Kenshin was called upon to provide refuge in his castle for his nominal lord, Uesugi Norimasa, who had been forced to flee there due to the expansion into the Kantō region by the lord Hōjō Ujiyasu from the Hōjō clan. He agreed to give the warlord shelter, under specific terms, but was not in a position at the time to move against the Hōjō. The terms were Norimasa's adoption of Kenshin as his heir, the change of name from Kagetora to Terutora (later Kenshin), the title Lord of Echigo, and the Kantō Kanrei post as "shōgun"s deputy. In 1552 the Uesugi started to wage war against the Hōjō clan.

paragraph: Though his rule over the Nagao and Uesugi clan were now unquestioned, much of Echigo was still independent of this young warlord's grasp. Kenshin immediately set out to cement his power in the region, but these efforts were still in their infant stages when far more pressing concerns appeared. Ogasawara Nagatoki and Murakami Yoshikiyo, two Shinano lords, both appeared before Kenshin requesting his help in halting the advances of the powerful warlord Takeda Shingen. Around the time Kenshin became the new lord of Echigo, Shingen had won major victories in Shinano Province. With the Takeda's conquests taking them remarkably close to the borders of Echigo, Kenshin agreed to take the field on two fronts, however the conflicts between the three lords showed also various alliances and treaties.

paragraph: Kenshin's military success is related to his successful reform efforts on trade, market, transportation network (taxing mechanism in the port towns), and revenues generated by the cloth trade. The result was control over commerce which previously government did not have. He also established feudal ties with the warrior population by land grants. The so-called "Funai Statutes" show the provisions that apply to the traditional elites and common folk, tax breaks due to war exhaustion, with intent to centralize and consolidate the lands around his capital, which were followed by further reforms for the consolidation of the imperial lands prior the 1560–1562 Kantō campaign. However, despite Kenshin's control over agriculture and economy, he did not thoroughly implement key reforms such as cadastral surveys, important for military obligations, implying Kenshin's focus on commerce. The management of the administration, military organization, as well in some minor battles in Echigo Funai were handed by vassal Kurata Gorōzaemon.

paragraph: Section::::Conflict with Takeda Shingen.

paragraph: What followed was the beginning of a rivalry which became legendary. In the first conflict between the two, both Uesugi Kenshin and Takeda Shingen were very cautious, only committing themselves to indecisive skirmishes. Over the years, there would eventually be a total number of five such engagements at the famous site of Kawanakajima (1553–1564), though only the fourth would prove to be a serious, all-out battle between the two.

paragraph: In 1561, Kenshin and Shingen fought the biggest battle they would fight, the fourth battle of Kawanakajima. Kenshin used an ingenious tactic: a special formation where the soldiers in the front would switch with their comrades in the rear, as those in the frontline became tired or wounded. This allowed the tired soldiers to take a break, while the soldiers who had not seen action would fight on the front lines. This was extremely effective and because of this Kenshin nearly defeated Shingen. In "Kōyō Gunkan" there is one of the most famous instances of single combat in samurai history; during this battle, Kenshin managed to ride up to Shingen and slashed at him with his sword. Shingen fended off the blows with his iron war fan or "tessen". Kenshin failed to finish Shingen off before a Takeda retainer drove him away. Shingen made a counter-attack and the Uesugi army retreated. The result of the fourth battle of Kawanakajima is still uncertain. Many scholars are divided on who the actual victor was, if the battle was actually decisive enough to even declare one, thus is generally considered a draw. It is considered to be the largest casualty battle in the Sengoku period, with loss of estimated 72 percent of Kenshin's army and 62 percent of Shingen's army, but Shingen also lost two of his most important generals during the battle, namely his advisor Yamamoto Kansuke and younger brother Takeda Nobushige. Some more conservative estimates place the casualties around 20 percent.

paragraph: In addition, there was an incident when the Hōjō boycotted salt supplies to Kai Province. When Kenshin heard of Shingen's problem he sent salt to the Shingen from his own province. Kenshin commented that the Hōjō had "performed a very mean act". Kenshin added, "I do not fight with salt, but with the sword". His respect for Shingen is evident from when he died Kenshin privately wept and stated, "I have lost my good rival. We won't have a hero like that again!"

paragraph: Though his rivalry with Takeda Shingen was legendary, Uesugi Kenshin actually had a number of other ventures occurring around the times of these famous battles (1553–1564). In the year 1559, he made a trip with escort of 5000 men to pay homage to the "shōgun" in Kyoto. This served to heighten his reputation considerably, and added to his image as a cultured leader as well as a warlord. This same year he was pushed once again by Uesugi Norimasa to take control of the Kantō back from the Hōjō, and in 1560 he was able to comply. In August of the same year, he put southern Echigo under control of a five-man council for broad mobilization, as well formed a small investigative council for any kind of unrest. Heading a campaign against the Hōjō Ujiyasu from fall 1560 to the summer of 1561, Kenshin was successful in taking a number of castles from the clan, like Numata and Umayabashi castles, which ended with the first siege of the Odawara Castle in Sagami Province. He managed to break the defenses and burn the town, but the castle itself remained unconquered due to threats from Shingen, and thus seized Kamakura. In 1561, Kenshin saved his ally Ōta Sukemasa who was under siege by both Ujiyasu and Shingen, while in November 1569 when Shingen sieged Odawara Castle, Ujiyasu requested help from Kenshin.

paragraph: The other main area which interested Uesugi Kenshin was Etchū Province in the west, and Kenshin would spend nearly half his life involved in the politics of that province. The land was inhabited by two feuding clans, the Jinbo and the Shiina clan. Kenshin first entered the dispute as a mediator in the early 1550s between rivals Shiina Yasutane and Jinbo Nagamoto, but he later sided with the Shiina and took over the Jinbo clan. Decades later, Kenshin turned against the Shiina clan, taking their main castle in 1575 and having Shiina Yasutane assassinated in 1576 by Kojima Motoshige. At this point, by 1564 Kenshin controlled both Etchū and Kōzuke Province.

paragraph: Section::::Conflict with Oda Nobunaga.

paragraph: By the 1570s, Kenshin governed Echigo, some adjacent provinces, all Hokuriku seaboard, and routed Nobunaga's forces in Echizen Province. In 1571, Kenshin attacked Shingen's satellite Ishikura Castle in Kōzuke province, and they again faced each other at the Battle of Tonegawa, to once again disengage.

paragraph: Starting in the year 1576, Kenshin began to consider the issue of Oda Nobunaga, who had since grown to be Japan's most powerful warlord of the time. With both Takeda Shingen and Hōjō Ujiyasu dead, Kenshin was no longer blocked off from this realm of expansion. So, when the death of a lord in Noto Province sparked up confusion and conflict, Kenshin was quick to use the opportunity, taking land from the weakened clan which put him in a position to threaten Nobunaga and his allies. In response, Nobunaga pulled together his own forces and those of his two best generals; Shibata Katsuie (柴田勝家) and Maeda Toshiie (前田利家) to meet Kenshin, who successfully besieged Nanao Castle, at Tedorigawa (1577) in Kaga Province. Kenshin based his 30,000 strong army at the castle of Matsuto, while Nobunaga arrived with 50,000 troops led by many famous generals.

paragraph: Despite Nobunaga's overwhelming numbers, Kenshin managed to score a solid victory on the field. At first, Kenshin anticipated that Nobunaga would try to move by night over the river for dawn attack and thus refused to engage the Nobunaga army. Then he pretended to send forth a small unit to attack Nobunaga's main force from behind and gave his enemy a great opportunity to crush his remaining force. Nobunaga took the bait. Nobunaga's force attacked at night expecting a weakened opponent at the front; instead Kenshin's full military might was waiting. However, Kenshin who described the opponent's performance as "surprisingly weak", had a false impression to have defeated Nobunaga, as his army was actually led by Katsuie.

paragraph: Section::::Death.

paragraph: In October 1577, Uesugi Kenshin arranged to put forth a grand army to continue his assaults into Nobunaga's land. In 1578 he entered alliance with Takeda Katsuyori against Nobunaga, but held up by bad weather, he died of a esophageal cancer in the spring of 1578. His death poem was:

paragraph: The cause of Kenshin's death has been questioned throughout the years. The theory accepted by most scholars is that early sources record his deterioration of health condition, his complaints of pain in the chest "like an iron ball", and as "Kenshin Gunki" (1582) records "on the 9th day of the 3rd month he had a stomach ache in his toilet. This unfortunately persisted until the 13th day when he died". However, it is also speculated that he was victim of one of the most famous ninja assassinations; a ninja been waiting in the cesspool beneath the latrine at Kenshin's camp with a short spear or sword. The theories are not mutually exclusive — the assassin, if he existed, and was possibly sent by Nobunaga, might simply have fatally wounded an already-dying man. However, as his anticipation of own death is recorded in the death poem, the possibility of the assassination is less likely.

paragraph: Domestically, Kenshin left behind a succession crisis. While he never had any children of his own, Kenshin adopted two boys during his lifetime. His nephew, Uesugi Kagekatsu, was probably adopted for deflection of the antagonism by Kagekatsu's father, Nagao Masakage, relatives and supporters. Another adopted son, Uesugi Kagetora, who was originally the son of Hōjō Ujiyasu, was adopted to secure the Echigo's borders. Some suppose that Kagekatsu was intended to be gradually set up as his heir, while others that Kenshin decided to divide the estates between the two.

paragraph: Both sons had external blood ties, and reasonable claims. Kagetora was besieged at Ōtate in 1578, and although contacted for aid Hōjō Ujimasa and Takeda Katsuyori, the former backed down, Kagekatsu married his sister, and eventually was able to secure his succession. Kagetora fled to a castle near the Echigo-Shinano border where he committed suicide in 1579.

paragraph: The death caused local power struggles, with the result of almost decade long infighting in Echigo between 1578–1587, usually divided into "Otate Disturbance" (1578–1582) and "Shibata rebellion" (1582–1587). The resistance of the Kagetora's supporters continued for few years in north-central Echigo. In 1582, Shibata Shigeie, who was a vassal of Kagekatsu, led a rebellion in north Echigo, probably due to low rewards for his support of Kagekatsu, but even more the Kagekatsu's granting control over the toll barriers in the port of Niigata to Takemata Yoshitsuna.

paragraph: However, in the aftermath of the costly internal struggle, the Oda clan exploited rebellions against Kagekatsu to advance right up to the border of Echigo, having captured Noto and Kaga while the Uesugi brothers were busy with the infighting. This combined with the destruction of the Takeda clan, Uesugi's then ally and long time Oda enemy, would come close to destroying the Uesugi clan before Oda Nobunaga's own death once again shattered the balance of power in Japan.

paragraph: Section::::Kenshin Festival.

paragraph: The Kenshin Festival takes place every August in Jōetsu since 1926. The procession starts at Kasugayama Castle for the reenactment of the fourth Kawanakajima battle, with an army of 400–1000 soldiers. Japanese singer-songwriter Gackt portrayed Kenshin on several occasions since 2007, and thanks to his participation, the festival in 2015 reached record high attendance of 243,000 people.

paragraph: Section::::Theory.

paragraph: According to contemporary historian , Uesugi Kenshin was a woman. Yagiri discovered a report on 16th century Japan in the monastery of Toledo which was used as a fort during the Spanish Civil War. This report about Japan was written by a person named Gonzalez of Spain to King Philip II. In that report, Gonzalez refers to Uesugi Kenshin as "tia" (aunt) of Uesugi Kagekatsu (biological son of Kenshin's sister), but currently it is said that "tia" referred to an amount of gold, driven by this, Tomeo Yagiri wrote the "" (Female Uesugi Kenshin theory). Other evidence from this theory is that Kenshin had severe stomach cramps on a monthly basis around the 10th of the month (historically written in Kōyō Gunkan), he actually programmed his military campaigns around that. The cause of Kenshin's death is recorded at the historiography "" (当代记) written by Matsudaira Tadaaki, as a form of uterine cancer (大虫). Historically Kenshin had a feminine appearance, currently the portraits of Kenshin were made in the Edo period, those made in the Sengoku period, he had a more feminine appearance. Kenshin was the only one allowed to freely enter the women's quarters in the Imperial Palace, which was a rare occurrence. Kenshin had no children, no wife or concubine, his relations with women and men are only written in tales and nothing is historically proven.

paragraph: Section::::In popular culture.

paragraph: The 1990 Japanese film "Heaven And Earth" (original title: "Ten to Chi to") directed by Haruki Kadokawa, covers the rivalry between Uesugi Kenshin and Takeda Shingen, focusing mainly on the character of Kenshin who is referred to by his original name Kagetora. The film has been praised for its realistic depictions of warfare and battles of the period. It is also famous for holding the world record for most saddled horses used in one sequence — 800 horses were in a battle segment.

paragraph: In the 2007 NHK Taiga drama, "Fūrin Kazan", Uesugi Kenshin is portrayed by Japanese singer-songwriter Gackt. The 2009 NHK Taiga drama "Tenchijin" tells the story of Uesugi Kenshin, although its main focus is on Naoe Kanetsugu, the page and later advisor to Uesugi Kenshin's adopted son and heir Kagekatsu.

paragraph: Kenshin was again voiced by Gackt in the anime of the gag manga, "Tono to Issho" (2010–2011).

paragraph: Kenshin was voiced in both the "Sengoku Basara" games and anime by Romi Park and has a very feminine appearance throughout the series, and he was master in Iaido and ice-based attacks. The live-action drama "Sengoku Basara: Moonlight Party" cast actress Mayuko Arisue as Kenshin. Gackt participated in the production, but voiced Oda Nobunaga.

paragraph: Kenshin appears in gender bender parallel universes , as quiet warriors princesses which wields a spear and utilizes lightning and Shingen's rival, but best friend at the same time, even though she won't admit it. She rules a clan of warriors by the sea, directly next-door to Shingen.

paragraph: Kenshin has been featured in many video games, such as the Koei's "Samurai Warriors" and "Warriors Orochi" series. He is a playable character in "Pokémon Conquest" ("Pokémon + Nobunaga's Ambition" in Japan), where he is the warlord of Illusio with his partner Pokémon being Gallade and Mewtwo.

paragraph: William Beaudine

paragraph: William Washington Beaudine (January 15, 1892 – March 18, 1970) was an American film actor and director. He was one of Hollywood's most prolific directors, turning out films in remarkable numbers and in a wide variety of genres.

paragraph: Section::::Life and career.

paragraph: Born in New York City, Beaudine began his career as an actor in 1909 with American Mutoscope and Biograph Company. He married Marguerite Fleischer in 1914 and they stayed married until his death. Her sister was the mother of actor Bobby Anderson). Beaudine's brother was short action filled comedy films director Harold Beaudine.

paragraph: In 1915 he was hired as an actor and director by the Kalem Company. He was an assistant to director D.W. Griffith on "The Birth of a Nation" and "Intolerance". By the time he was 23 Beaudine had directed his first picture, a short called "Almost a King" (1915). He would continue to direct shorts exclusively until 1922, when he shifted his efforts into making feature-length films.

paragraph: Beaudine directed silent films for Goldwyn Pictures (before it became part of MGM), Metro Pictures (also before MGM), First National Pictures, Principal and Warner Brothers. In 1926 he made "Sparrows", the story of orphans imprisoned in a swamp farm starring Mary Pickford. Beaudine had at least 30 pictures to his credit before the sound era began. Among his first sound films were short Mack Sennett comedies; he made at least one film for Sennett while contractually bound elsewhere, resulting in his adopting the pseudonym "William Crowley." He would occasionally use the pseudonym in later years, usually as "William X. Crowley."

paragraph: He ground out several movies annually for Fox Films, Warner Brothers, Paramount, and Universal Pictures. His most famous credit of the early 1930s is "The Old-Fashioned Way", a comedy about old-time show folks starring W. C. Fields.

paragraph: Beaudine was one of a number of experienced directors (including Raoul Walsh and Allan Dwan) who were brought to England from Hollywood in the 1930s to work on what were in all other respects very British productions. Beaudine directed four films there starring Will Hay, including "Boys Will Be Boys" (1935) and "Where There's a Will" (1936), and the George Formby comedy "Feather Your Nest" (1937).

paragraph: Beaudine returned to America in 1937 and had trouble re-establishing himself at the major studios. Once widely known as an A-list director of important productions, Beaudine had commanded a premium salary in the late 1920s that Hollywood producers of the late 1930s didn't want to match. He worked briefly at Warner Brothers, with whom he had been associated in Britain, and then waited for offers on his terms. They never came. Beaudine had lost much of his personal fortune through no fault of his own (a bank he bought an interest in had failed, and much of his income was claimed by the British government in taxes).

paragraph: In 1940 publicist-turned-producer Jed Buell approached Beaudine to direct an all-black-cast feature for Buell's Dixie National Pictures. The salary was a flat $500 for one week's work. Beaudine knew that if he accepted this job, he would henceforth be associated with low-budget films and would never command his old salary again, but with his finances at a low ebb Beaudine accepted the assignment.

paragraph: Buell was pleased with Beaudine's professionalism and inventive ways to maximize a shoestring budget. He hired Beaudine to direct "Misbehaving Husbands" (1940), noteworthy at the time as the comeback feature of silent-screen clown Harry Langdon. It was a humble comeback for both Langdon and Beaudine, since it was released by the tiny Producers Releasing Corporation, whose budgets seldom ventured beyond five figures, but it was successful and reestablished both Langdon and Beaudine, albeit in B pictures.

paragraph: William Beaudine became a low-budget specialist, forsaking his artistic ambitions in favor of strictly commercial film fare, and recouping his financial losses through sheer volume of work. He made dozens of comedies, thrillers and melodramas with such popular personalities as Bela Lugosi, Ralph Byrd, Edmund Lowe, Jean Parker, and The East Side Kids. He became a fixture at the ambitious Monogram Pictures, and directed fully half of the 48 comedy features starring The Bowery Boys. By this time Beaudine had a reputation for being a resourceful, no-nonsense director who could make feature films in a matter of days, sometimes as few as five. He occasionally directed special-interest productions, like the 1945 crusade-for-sex-education feature "Mom and Dad", produced by Kroger Babb, and the 1950 religious drama "Again... Pioneers", produced by the Protestant Film Commission.

paragraph: The authors of the 1978 book "The 50 Worst Films of All Time" gave William Beaudine the unflattering nickname "One-Shot," because he always seemed to shoot just one take, regardless of actors flubbing their lines or special effects malfunctioning. It is true that Beaudine shot economically—he usually had no choice—but he was always professional, and actually did shoot multiple takes of movie scenes. (The coming-attractions trailers of Beaudine's films are rife with alternate takes.)

paragraph: Beaudine was often entrusted with series films, including the "Torchy Blane", "The East Side Kids", "Jiggs and Maggie", "The Shadow", "Charlie Chan" and "The Bowery Boys" series. His efficiency was so well known that Walt Disney hired him to direct some of his television projects of the 1950s and had him direct a feature western, "Ten Who Dared" (1960). Beaudine became even busier in TV, directing "Naked City", "The Green Hornet", and dozens of "Lassie" episodes.

paragraph: His last two feature films, both released in 1966, were the horror-westerns "Billy the Kid vs. Dracula" (with John Carradine) and "Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter". By the end of the decade he was the industry's oldest working professional, having started in 1909.

paragraph: The Academy Film Archive has preserved two films by William Beaudine, "Little Annie Rooney" and "Mom and Dad."

paragraph: Section::::Death.

paragraph: Beaudine died of uremic poisoning in 1970 in California and was interred in the Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Hollywood.

paragraph: Peter Meyn (8 April 1749 - 11 April 1808) was a Danish architect.

paragraph: Section::::Early life and education.

paragraph: Meyn was born in Copenhagen, the son of master joiner Anton (Anthoni) Christian Meyn (1712–82) and Helena Klefts (c. 1714-80). He studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts where he won the small gold medal in 1767 and the large gold medal in 1768 with a project for a royal military academy. The large gold medal qualified him for the first vacant travel stipend. He worked for Caspar Frederik Harsdorff on the marble baths in Frederiksberg Palace (1770) and as executing architect on Frederick V's Chapel at Roskilde Cathedral. In 1777, when Nicolai Abildgaard had returned to Denmark, Meyn finally went abroad to further his education, spending most of the time in Paris and Rome. He returned to Denmark in 1782 and became a member of the Royal Academy in 1783.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: In 1783, Meyn was appointed to building inspector. He was appointed to second professor at the Academy in 1783 and to first professor in 1799. He served as acting master builder ("konstitueret bygmester") for the Navy in 1785-88. In 1789, he was both appointed to master builder for the City of Copenhagen and to royal master builder.

paragraph: I. M. Yost

paragraph: Isaac M. Yost, commonly I. M. Yost, or "Ike", was a miller and frontier industrialist who led the development of flour milling in the settlement of Hays City, Kansas. Even though he was the leading miller in Hays for decades, he was particularly remembered there for co-founding the short-lived United States Portland Cement Company and the associated townsite of Yocemento.

paragraph: I. M. Yost was born in Norristown, Pennsylvania in 1848. In 1871, Yost married Sallie T. Johnson. Sally was a cousin of William Cody (Buffalo Bill), who, just before his buffalo hunting fame, had co-founded a short-lived town, Rome, Kansas, a rival of Hays City. At the Centennial Exposition of 1876, Cody persuaded Yost to move to the then vacated Rome townsite and build a dam and flour mill there. Although the dam was soon destroyed and the mill burned, Yost persevered, rebuilding in neighboring Hays City, and rebuilding again each time after 2 more fires. By 1910, he operated several mills in the railroad towns ranging of a distance of about 94 miles from Wilson to Hays to Collyer.

paragraph: Erasmus Haworth, the first state geologist of Kansas, came to Ellis County in 1906, seeking to continue his study of western Kansas geology. For a local guide, he sought out the respected "Ike" Yost. Yost drove Haworth out to the Ellis County Hog Back, the local name for the limestone bluffs a few miles west of Fort Hays. Pooling their knowledge of geology and industry, the two partnered to found the successful but short-lived United States Portland Cement Company and the supporting town, Yocemento, at the base of the bluff. The company made a rapid start, but struggled and failed under intense competition with established cement manufactures in Denver and Missouri.

paragraph: With the company sold to the Denver competitor in 1916, Yost moved to Kansas City, then to Denver. However, he remained a booster of the community. He consulted in the WPA mapping project of Rome.

paragraph: In later years, Yost made his home with a son, Ed, in California, passing away at the age of 96.

paragraph: Frans van Cranevelt

paragraph: Frans van Cranevelt (Nijmegen, 3 February 1485 – Mechelen, 8 September 1564), also known as Franciscus Craneveldius, was a Flemish humanist and lawyer.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Cranevelt was the son of Herman van Cranevelt (1442-1518), secretary of three successive dukes of Guelders, and Irma van Heusden-Helshout (died 1528). In 1509 he married Elisabeth van Baussele (d.1545) from Leuven, who bore him at least eleven children, and in 1560 he married the widow Catherine de Plaine.

paragraph: After having received home education, together with Gerard Geldenhouwer, and having studied at the Latin school in Deventer, in 1497 he went to Cologne for his university studies. At that time he was barely thirteen and when he completed his studies in 1500 he was not awarded a degree because he was too young. He then went to Leuven University, where he studied under Johannes Despauterius and Adriaan Floriszoon, the future Pope Adrian VI. In 1505 he graduated licentiate of philosophy as the top of his year ("primus"). In 1506 he became a licentiate in civil and canon law and in 1510 doctor of laws. From 1507 he taught law.

paragraph: In 1515 he took up the position of city pensioner of Bruges and in this capacity he pronounced speeches to welcome important guests to the city, including King Christian II of Denmark, Emperor Charles V, and Cardinal Thomas Wolsey. On 27 September 1522, Emperor Charles V appointed him a councillor in the Great Council of Mechelen. He continued to exercise this office until his death. On the Council and at the Court in Mechelen he became a man of considerable influence.

paragraph: Despite his political responsibilities Cranevelt maintained a lively correspondence with many of the most important humanists of his time, such as Erasmus, Thomas More, Adrianus Barlandus, and his close friend Juan Luis Vives. He enjoyed the esteem of all not only because of his erudition, but also for his sound judgment, his pleasant character and the good mood he kept in all circumstances.

paragraph: Erik Rutan

paragraph: Erik Rutan (born June 10, 1971) is an American heavy metal musician and producer from New Jersey. He leads Hate Eternal on lead vocals and guitar and is currently filling in on guitar for fellow death metal band Cannibal Corpse during their 2019 tour. He has also spent time with Morbid Angel (three different stints) and Ripping Corpse. When not performing, Rutan operates his own recording studio in Florida called Mana Recording Studios.

paragraph: Section::::Recording.

paragraph: Rutan started his metal career with Ripping Corpse, recording one album titled "Dreaming with the Dead" released in 1991. Around 1995, he left to join Morbid Angel, recording "Domination" (1995) before leaving in 1996 to found his own band, Hate Eternal, releasing their first album "Conquering the Throne" in 1999. Rutan then returned to Morbid Angel to record "Gateways to Annihilation", released in 2000. Rutan left Morbid Angel again to concentrate on Hate Eternal, releasing "King of All Kings" in 2002 and "I, Monarch" in 2005. He rejoined Morbid Angel once more for the band's 2006 summer tour of Europe, a move about which the other band members said, "This will certainly be an exciting event with the "Domination" lineup together for the first time in 10 years!" The tour included a stop at the Wacken Open Air festival.

paragraph: Rutan has had a number of side projects that highlight different aspects of his playing. For example, he formed the group Alas with former the Therion vocalist Martina Astner, releasing the landmark progressive metal album "Absolute Purity" in 2001.

Monumento de Diogo Gomes

paragraph: Diogo Gomes

paragraph: Diogo Gomes () was a Portuguese navigator, explorer and writer.

paragraph: Diogo Gomes was a servant and explorer of Portuguese prince Henry the Navigator. His memoirs were dictated late in his life to Martin Behaim. They are an invaluable (if sometimes inconsistent) account of the Portuguese discoveries under Henry the Navigator, and one of the principal sources upon which historians of the era have drawn. He explored and ascended up the Gambia River in West Africa and discovered some of the Cape Verde islands.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Probably a native of Lagos, Portugal, Diogo Gomes began as page in the household of Prince Henry the Navigator and subsequently rose to the rank of "cavaleiro" (knight) by 1440. Diogo Gomes participated in the 1445 slave raid led by Lançarote de Freitas of Lagos on the Arguin banks, and claims to have personally captured 22 Berber slaves singlehandedly.

paragraph: He was named a royal clerk ("escrivão da carreagem real") on 12 June 1451, and went on in the service of both Prince Henry and the Portuguese crown.

paragraph: Section::::Expeditions.

paragraph: Circa 1456, Gomes was sent out by Prince Henry in command of three vessels down the West African coast. Gomes claims he was accompanied by Jacob, an "Indian" interpreter, which some early historians have taken as a rare indication that Henry envisaged reaching India at this early stage. However, modern historians find this improbable; Russell notes that, at the time, 'Indian' was commonly used as a moniker for an Ethiopian, and the furthest hope that Henry nurtured was of reaching the lands of Prester John.

paragraph: Gomes is said to have reached as far as "Rio Grande" (now Geba River, in Guinea Bissau), a huge leap beyond the last point known to be reached by the Portuguese. But strong currents checked Gomes' course and his officers and men feared that they were approaching the extremity of the ocean, so he turned back. On his return, Gomes put in at the Gambia River and ascended up the Gambia a considerable distance, some 50 leagues (250 miles), reaching as far as the major market town of Cantor, an entrepot of the Mali gold trade. Gomes credits himself as the first Portuguese captain to interact peacefully with the natives in this region (all prior expeditions had been fended off or fallen in hostilities on the Senegambian coast, although Alvise Cadamosto had also sailed successfully that same year). At Cantor, Gomes collected much information about the gold mines and trade patterns of the upper Senegal and upper Niger, of the cities of Kukia and Timbuktu and the Trans-Saharan trade routes that stretched to the Moroccan coast.

paragraph: Although the region was primarily Muslim, Gomes seems to have won over at least one important chief named "Numimansa", with his court, to Christianity and Portuguese allegiance. Teixeira da Mota identifies 'Numinansa' as the chieftain of the Nomi Bato, and may have been the same chieftain responsible for the deaths of earlier explorers Nuno Tristão in c.1447 and Vallarte in c.1448. The Nomi Bato are probably ancestral to the current Niominka people of the Saloum River delta, and although currently classified as a Serer tribe, were probably originally Mandinka at the time.

paragraph: Section::::Return to Portugal.

paragraph: By 1459, Gomes was appointed to the lucrative office of "almoxarife" (receiver of royal customs) of the town of Sintra. He remained in that position until c.1480.

paragraph: Gomes made another African voyage in 1462 (which some historians date as 1460). He sailed down to the Saloum River delta ("Rio dos Barbacins") in Senegal, to enter into trade with the Serer people of Sine and Saloum. There he stumbled upon the caravel of the Genoese captain António de Noli, and they charted a return journey together. On the return, Gomes sailed to the Cape Verde islands and claims to have been the first to land on and name Santiago island (his priority is contested by Cadamosto). Gomes speaks, with some resentment, of how Antonio de Noli managed to reach Lisbon before him and secured the captaincy of Santiago island from the king before his arrival.

paragraph: Prince Henry having died in 1460; thus after his return, Gomes retired from active exploring and pursued a career with Henry's nephew and heir Ferdinand of Viseu and the royal court. In 1463, he was appointed royal squire ("escudeiro") for King Afonso V of Portugal. In 1466, he secured a generous royal pension of 4,800 reals, to which were attached duties as a magistrate in Sintra ("juiz das cousas e feitorias contadas de Sintra"). At an uncertain date, he was also appointed magistrate in nearby Colares ("juiz das sisas da Vila de Colares", for which we have confirmation by 5 March 1482).

paragraph: Section::::Death.

paragraph: His death date is uncertain. Some date it as early as 1485, and one authority has 1482, although historian Peter Russell suggests he lived until at least 1499. There is confirmation he was certainly dead by 1502, from the record of an indulgence for his soul paid for by his widow.

paragraph: Section::::Memoirs.

paragraph: Already in advanced age, Diogo Gomes orally dictated his memoirs to the German cartographer Martin Behaim during the latter's sojourn in Portugal. The date of the relation is uncertain and could be anytime between 1484 (Behaim's arrival) to 1502 (confirmation of Gomes' death). Historian Peter Russell tentatively dates the interview around 1499, as the account refers to the death of António de Noli, which occurred around that time. It is likely Gomes dictated in Portuguese, probably through an interpreter, and Behaim wrote it down in Latin (or alternatively in German, and only later transcribed to Latin).

paragraph: The resulting memoirs, under the title "De prima inuentione Guineae" ("Of the first discovery of Guinea"), are the only surviving contemporary manuscript, outside of the official chronicle of Gomes Eanes de Zurara, that attempts to give a chronological account of all the Henrican discoveries. The manuscript has two other parts, "De insulis primo inventis in mare Occidentis" (an account of Canary Islands and the Madeira group) and "De inventione insularum de Acores" (containing the only detailed record of the Portuguese discovery of the Azores islands).

paragraph: Historians generally treat Diogo Gomes's account with caution - his penchant for self-promotion, his advanced age, his attempt to recollect events more than two decades past, misunderstandings by Behaim's interpreter, the haste of the transcription (the Latin is quite poor, suggesting it was hurriedly written) and possibly even some supplementary massaging of the material by editor Valentim Fernandes, have conspired to make it an imperfect document, with numerous errors and inconsistencies. Nonetheless, it is an enormously valuable document, containing details that are not found elsewhere.

paragraph: Among other novelties, Gomes' memoirs are the sole record of what appears to have been the earliest Portuguese expedition, a 1415 expedition to Gran Canaria by João de Trasto (although this is probably just an erroroneous reference of the 1424 expedition of Fernando de Castro). Gomes also gives the first detailed account of the rediscovery of the Azores by the Portuguese in Prince Henry's service.

paragraph: The memoirs are noteworthy for illuminating the character and purpose of Prince Henry the Navigator, ascribing to the prince a deliberate scientific and commercial purpose in exploration. Gomes notes Henry sent out his caravels to search for new lands ("ad quaerendas terras") from his wish to know the more distant parts of the western ocean, and in the hope of finding islands or "terra firma" beyond the limits laid down by Ptolemy ("ultra descriptionem Tolomei"); on the other hand, his information as to the native trade from Tunis to Timbuktu and the Gambia helped to inspire his persistent exploration of the West African coast to seek those lands by way of the sea. Chart and quadrant were used on the prince's vessels. Henry, at the time of Gomes' first voyage, was in correspondence with an Oran merchant who kept him informed upon events even in Gambian hinterland; and, before the discovery of the Senegal and Cape Verde in 1445, Gomes claims the royal prince had already gained reliable information of the route to Timbuktu. Gomes gives a touching account of the last illness and death of Prince Henry.

paragraph: There is only one manuscript of Gomes' memoirs, part of a collection of miscellaneous accounts of Portuguese expeditions originally compiled in 1508 by a Lisbon-based German printer known as Valentinus Moravus or (in Portuguese, as "Valentim Fernandes"). This collection remained unpublished and unknown until a copy was discovered in 1845 by J.A. Schmeller in the Hof- und Staats-Bibliothek in Munich (Codex Hisp. 27). The original Latin text was printed in 1847 by Schmeller in the proceedings of the Bavarian Academy of Science. It has since been translated and reprinted several times. A partial English translation was published in 1937, a full French translation in 1959.
