paragraph: René Rimbert

paragraph: René Rimbert (September 19, 1896 – March 23, 1991) was a French painter. His work is often associated with Naïve art but has influences from Neorealism, Post- and Neo-impressionism and Dutch Golden Age painting.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Rimbert was born in Paris. His father was a gilder and picture framer. He grew up in the Montparnasse - Saint-Germain-des-Prés district of Paris. As a child and teenager he was involved in music, drawing and painting and reading. His father encouraged him to enter the French Postal administration. The young postal clerk continued to pursue his artistic interests until World War I, when he was enlisted and joined the general military staff, first as a telegraph operator and then as a draughtsman. When the war ended he went back to the Postal Administration, got married and started his two-track career as a postal officer and an artist.

paragraph: Section::::Creative Life.

paragraph: Rimbert's career as a painter began in 1920. From 1932 until 1944 his painting was interrupted, first by illness and later by World War II. He then continued to paint until 1983.

paragraph: In addition to numerous drawings, unfinished or destroyed paintings, his work consists of 276 recorded paintings, mainly oil on canvas, which are now in the possession of private collectors and museums in France and in other countries.

paragraph: Rimbert's paintings were influenced by the Dutch classic master painters, by the French 18th-century painter Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin, and by Henri Rousseau (Le Douanier Rousseau), who was starting to be recognized at the time when Rimbert began painting. One of Rimbert's early works, "Le douanier Rousseau heading for glory and prosperity" is dedicated to Rousseau.

paragraph: Rimbert's friend, French painter Marcel Gromaire, convinced him to exhibit some of his early works. Two years later he met the poet and painter Max Jacob, who introduced Rimbert to well-known artists, including Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, and Amedeo Modigliani. The ongoing exchanges of letters between these two men have been published. He also met the art critic Anatole Jakovsky, who gave Rimbert's paintings the label of "naïve Art".

paragraph: Rimbert's earliest paintings are mainly still lifes, but soon he began to paint representations of quaint buildings and street scenes in his native Paris, its suburbs and in provincial towns as well as landscapes. The village and surrounding countryside of Perpezac-le-Noir, near Brive-La-Gaillarde in southwestern France, where his wife's family came from and where she owned a house, is also often represented. His later works reflect his visits during winter on the Côte d'Azur and often depict Mediterranean street scenes and landscapes.

paragraph: Section::::Exhibitions.

paragraph: Rimbert exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants, the salon des surindépendants, the Salon d'Automne, the salon "Comparaisons" as well as at numerous group shows in France, and in other countries, of "Maîtres populaires", "Peintres naïfs", or "Primitifs”.

paragraph: Rimbert also had nine solo exhibitions in Paris between 1927 and 1987, as well as a posthumous exhibition in 1996. In 2007 a major exhibition of his works was held at the Musée International d'Art Naïf Anatole Jakovsky, in Nice, establishing a parallel between Rimbert and Marcel Gromaire.

paragraph: Caroline Ransom Williams

paragraph: Caroline Ransom Williams (February 24, 1872 – February 1, 1952) was an Egyptologist and classical archaeologist. She was the first American woman to be professionally trained as an Egyptologist. She worked extensively with the Metropolitan Museum of Art (MMA) in New York and other major institutions with Egyptian collections, and published "Studies in ancient furniture" (1905), "The Tomb of Perneb" (1916), and "The Decoration of the Tomb of Perneb: The Technique and the Color Conventions" (1932), among others.

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

paragraph: Caroline Louise Ransom was born on February 24, 1872, to John and Ella Randolph Ransom, wealthy Methodists in Toledo, Ohio. Ransom attended Lake Erie College and Mount Holyoke College, where she earned a B.A. in 1896, graduating Phi Beta Kappa.

paragraph: Her aunt Louise Fitz Randolph taught archeology and art history at Mount Holyoke College, and was a strong influence on Caroline Louise. After graduating from college, Ransom accompanied her aunt to Europe and Egypt, before teaching for a year at Lake Erie College.

paragraph: In 1898 she joined the newly formed degree program in Egyptology at the University of Chicago. It was the first program of its kind in the United States, and Caroline Ransom was the first woman in the program. She received her Master of Arts in classical archaeology and Egyptology in 1900. The director of the Oriental Institute in Chicago, James Henry Breasted, became not only a mentor but a lifelong friend and correspondent of Ransom. Their letters are preserved in the Oriental Institute's archives.

paragraph: Ransom was encouraged by Breasted to pursue further studies abroad. She spent time in Athens, attending lectures at the American School of Classical Studies at Athens and visiting the National Archaeological Museum, Athens. She went to Germany, where she studied at the University of Berlin from 1900 to 1903 with Adolf Erman. She received an Assistanceship in the Egyptian Department of the Berlin Museum in 1903.

paragraph: Back in Chicago, she wrote her doctoral dissertation under Breasted's supervision. In 1905, Ransom received her Ph.D. in Egyptology, becoming the first American woman to receive an advanced degree in the field. Her thesis was published in 1905 as "Studies in ancient furniture: Couches and beds of the Greeks, Etruscans, and Romans" by the University of Chicago Press. Ransom was commended for the work's "thoroughness and sane judgment" and for her ability to engage both the classical student and the general reader.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: From 1905 to 1910, Ransom was an assistant professor of Archaeology and Art at Bryn Mawr College in Pennsylvania, eventually becoming chair of her department. She also served on the managing committee of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens. In 1909, Ransom became the first female (corresponding) member of the Deutsches Archäologisches Institut (German Archaeological Institute), founded in 1898.

paragraph: She also participated in the Deutsche Orient-Gesellschaft (DOG, German Oriental Society). Such affiliations connected Ransom to an international community of current scholars and reinforced her position as an active member of the academic world.

paragraph: In 1909-1910 she was a vice-president of the Pennsylvania chapter of the Archaeological Institute of America.

paragraph: In 1910 she became assistant curator in the recently established Department of Egyptian Art of the Metropolitan Museum of Art (MMA) in New York under the direction of First Curator Albert M. Lythgoe. From 1910 to 1916, she worked with the artifacts in the collections, co-authoring the "Handbook of the Egyptian Collection of the Museum" (1911). In 1912, Ransom received an honorary doctorate (Litt. D.) from Mount Holyoke College on its 75th anniversary.

paragraph: Between 1913 and 1916, the Tomb of Perneb was moved from Egypt and reconstructed at the Metropolitan Museum. While Lythgoe and others were in the field during the winter, Ransom supervised the American side of the work. This included administration and planning for the reception and installation of the pieces of the tomb, and for the exhibit's opening. Reconstructing the tomb took three years. It opened to the public in 1916. The opening was accompanied by the publication of an 80-page booklet, "The Tomb of Perneb", co-written by Lythgoe and Ransom.

paragraph: In 1916 Ransom married Grant Williams, a real estate developer in Toledo, Ohio, and returned there to live. Although they did not have children, family obligations to her husband and aging mother limited Ransom's ability to take on major professional commitments. She continued to work with the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the New York Historical Society (NYHS) by commuting from Toledo, Ohio, to New York several times a year.

paragraph: In the winter of 1916/17 she cataloged the Egyptian collections of the Cleveland Museum of Art and the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. In 1918, she catalogued the Egyptian holdings of the Detroit Museum of Art and the Toledo Museum of Art.

paragraph: From 1917 to 1924, she was a curator of the Egyptian holdings of the New York Historical Society, cataloguing the Abbott Collection of Egyptian Antiquities.

paragraph: She repeatedly refused offers that would have required relocating to Chicago, New York, or Egypt. In a number of cases, most notably that of the Edwin Smith Medical Papyrus, she directed potentially prestigious work to others.

paragraph: During the 1926/27 season, Caroline Ransom Williams took part in the Epigraphic Survey of the inscriptions at Luxor, at the invitation of Breasted of the University of Chicago. She was one of four epigraphers on staff, the others being William F. Edgerton, John A. Wilson and the director of the site, Harold H. Nelson. In the Oriental Institute's report, Breasted expressed his "profound appreciation that Dr. Williams worked an entire season at Medinet Habu out of pure interest in the project and with almost no remuneration." Ransom Williams worked on the Mortuary Temple of Ramesses III at Medinet Habu. She is credited with largely establishing the epigraphic standards for the group's work, with the assistance of Edgerton and Wilson.

paragraph: In 1927/28 she was the first lecturer in Egyptian Art and Archeology at the University of Michigan.

paragraph: In 1929, Ransom Williams became president of the Mid-West Branch of the American Oriental Society. She was the first woman officer of the AOS.

paragraph: In 1932, she published "The Decoration of the Tomb of Perneb. The Technique and the Color Conventions". The book was a study of the Tomb of Perneb, which had been moved from Egypt and reconstructed at the Metropolitan Museum between 1913 and 1916.

paragraph: Around 1935, Ransom Williams worked with the Minneapolis Institute of Arts (MIA) to catalog their Drexel Collection. She returned to Egypt in 1935-36, to work with the Coffin Texts at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. In 1937 she received an honorary degree from the University of Toledo.

paragraph: Grant Williams died December 24, 1942, following a long illness. Caroline Ransom Williams died on February 1, 1952, after a short illness.

paragraph: Kate Kemp

paragraph: Kate Kemp of Barskimming lived with her father at the Bridge House on the northern side of the single span Barskimming Old Bridge (Barskimming Auld Brig), River Ayr, Scotland. Both Robert Burns and James Andrew, the miller at Barskimming Mill, had a romantic interest in her and one visit led to the composition of the poem and dirge ""Man was made to Mourn"".

paragraph: Section::::Life and character.

paragraph: Her father may have been the James Kemp of Barskimming who is recorded in the Parish of Stair as the father of William Kemp

paragraph: who was baptised on 19 August 1766 being around eighteen in 1784 and any sibling a likely similar age. No other 'Kemp' births are recorded around this time, however in 1781 a Margaret Kemp from Mauchline came to live in the parish of Stewarton with a 'clearance certificate' of good character.

paragraph: Kate lived in a sylvan and delightfully rural location at the old Barskimming Bridge or Kemp's House (NS4906525460) that lay on the north or Mauchline side of the road to Stair about two miles south of the town centre, sadly demolished sometime after 1861. Kemp is a unique surname in the parishes of Mauchline and Stair at the time of Burns, suggesting that the family were not local in origin. Old Kemp's daughter is described as having been a "trim trig lass", one of the leading belles of the district and it is recorded that Burns had an "e'e to Kate".

paragraph: Kate lived with her elderly and disabled father who had a slight paralysis and on the recorded occasion of one evening visit by Robert Burns and James Andrew she was not at home because she was out in the fields looking for a cow that had wandered resulting in her competing admirers having, as it turned out, productive time on their hands whilst awaiting her return. Wilson records from a 'correspondent' who recalled the words of James Andrew, miller of Barskimming Mill, that Kate's father was "".. not originally possessed of the best of tempers, was rendered peevish and querulous by disease and in consequence of slight paralysis, generally supported himself on two sticks"".

paragraph: Section::::Association with Robert Burns.

paragraph: One evening Robert Burns walked from his then new home at Mossgiel down to the Barskimming Bridge House that lay next to the River Ayr with the intention of courting Kate who had caught his eye as a 'trim trig lass'. Kate's distressed father explained that one of their cattle was lost and that Kate was away searching for it, adding that she had been away so long that he was afraid that she was lost as well. Burns decided to go for a walk on the Bridge or Miller's Holm in the hope that Kate would return with the lost cow.

paragraph: The first verse of the poem ""Man is Made to Mourn"" seems to reflect Burns's meeting with 'Old Kemp' -

paragraph: At the Stair end of the bridge Burns encountered James Andrew and the conversation that ensued went as follows ""Weel miller, what are you doing here?"" ""Na, Robin,"" said the miller, ""I s'ould put that question to you, for I am at home and ye'are no."" ""Why,"" said Robin, I cam doun to see Kate Kemp."" ""I was just gaun the same gate,"" said the miller. ""Then ye need gang nae further,"" said Burns, ""fur baith her and the cow's lost and the old man is perfectly wud at the want o'them. But come, we'll tak' a turn or two in the holm till we see if she cast up.""

paragraph: James Andrew was content to accompany his competitor for Kate's affections and at first they were both involved in a cheerful discourse, however at length Burns fell into a deep and silent ruminations and after a while the friends silently parted. Some days later they met up again and Burns apologised to James for giving the impression that he had not enjoyed his company that evening on the holm, however the miller explained that he had guessed that Burns was engrossed in the composition of a poem. Robert read out his new work and also gave James a copy of the petry that the occasion had created and this was how it is said that ""Man was Made to Mourn"" came finally and fully into existence. The holm at that time was planted with lime and chestnut trees planted by Sir Thomas Miller of Barskimming.

paragraph: The Burns family had moved to Mossgiel or Mossgaville from Lochlea near Tarbolton in March 1784 and Robert is recorded to have written '""Man is Made to Mourn"" in 1784, so his courtship of Kate Kemp must have been in that year. He met Jean Armour in April 1785 so he may have ceased his attempts at courtship by then.

paragraph: James Andrew, born 1765, son of Robert, was the miller at the nearby Barskimming Mill for many years and it is yet to be ascertained if his interest in courting Kate met with the desired success. His family continued living and working at the mill until his grandson, also James, sold it to William Alexander. James was buried in the cemetery at Stair Parish Church with a cast iron memorial made by Smith's Patent Sun Foundry.

paragraph: The dirge is most famous for the line ""Man's inhumanity to man""

paragraph: Section::::Barskimming Old Bridge and the Bridge House.

paragraph: Known locally as Kemp's House in Burns's time it was the property of Sir William Miller in 1857 and was occupied by his tenant Alexander Kerr. It was described in 1855 as ""A good Cottage at the North end of the County Bridge on the Turnpike Road from Mauchline to Ayr.""

paragraph: The two storey house may have been contemporary with Barskimming Old Bridge that dates from the 17th century, originally thatched but later slated. Steps beside it led into the woods where a path led through the Sandwalk Platantion down towards Barskimming House. Kate's home seems to have been built in conjunction with the bridge as a sort of lodge or toll collectors house. Considerable trouble had been expended in building a substantial level stone plinth for the house in this awkward and space restricted position. The 1841 Census records a 'Barskimming Bridge End' with James Reid, gardener and a family of four living at the property. The 1881 census does not record the property. A photograph of circa 1947 shows the house in good condition and the cave with a door.

paragraph: An unusual feature at the site is an artificial cave with a door that has been cut into the red sandstone. Several other caves exist in the area and it is recorded that it was in use as a dairy in 1879. Next to the bridge on the southern bank was the Bridge or Miller's Holm where those who lived at the restricted site of Kemp's House nestling under the red sandstone cliffs kept their cows.

paragraph: The Barskimming Auld Brig was noted in 1715 as ""..too was often in need of repair and improvement, for instance in 1776 by building a new arch seven foot lower and two foot wider than the former arch, by which instead of a dangerous and almost impassable bridge, the public had got a safe bridge and of easy passage as any in the country.""

paragraph: In 1838 it is recorded that the bridge parapet was pushed off to allow the passage of a number of wide vehicles, however no prosecution took place as the bridge did not conform with the 'Road Act'.

paragraph: Section::::Micro-history.

paragraph: Lord Barskimming and later Lord Glenlee was originally known as Sir Thomas Miller of Glenlee, the owner of the Barskimming Estate at the time of the Kemp's residence at Bridge House and the brother of Patrick Miller of Dalswinton who was Burns's landlord when he lived at Ellisland Farm.

paragraph: Brygos Painter

paragraph: The Brygos Painter was an ancient Greek Attic red-figure vase painter of the Late Archaic period. Together with Onesimos, Douris and Makron, he is among the most important cup painters of his time. He was active in the first third of the 5th century BCE, especially in the 480s and 470s BCE. He was a prolific artist to whom over two hundred vases have been attributed, but he is perhaps best known for the Brygos Cup, a red-figure kylix in the Louvre which depicts the "iliupersis" or sack of Troy.

paragraph: Section::::The name "Brygos".

paragraph: The artist’s name is derived from several cups painted in a distinctive style and bearing the signature “Brygos.” This inscription, currently present on sixteen vessels (some complete pieces and some fragments), is often accompanied by the word epoiesen. This suggests that the name refers to the potter or maker, rather than the painter, whose name would likely be followed by the word egrapsen. Some scholars persist in believing that the Brygos designation suggests that the painter and potter are one and the same; however, this seems problematic given the presence of the signature on a handful of vessels that were not painted by the Brygos Painter, but rather were decorated by other contemporary artists. This would imply that indeed the name of Brygos most likely belongs to the potter who fashioned the matrices on which the unnamed painter created his masterpieces. More likely, there was a partnership in place that resulted in Brygos forming the vessels with the Brygos Painter providing the illustrations. Nevertheless, the name “Brygos Painter” has been used by scholars since P. Hartwig as a means to outline a single master’s style and artistic production.

paragraph: Section::::Excavated works.

paragraph: In the 19th century CE, a magnificent red-figure kylix bearing the Brygos signature and painted in the style of the artist now known as the Brygos Painter was discovered in a 5th-century BCE tomb in Capua, leading John Beazley to dub the tomb (Tomb II) the “Brygos Tomb." A fragment of a plate depicting a reveler, painted by the Brygos Painter, was found on the Athenian Acropolis. Its burned exterior and excavation alongside remnants of marble architecture indicate it was part of the debris from the Persian destruction of the site, giving it a terminus ante quem of 480 BCE. Otherwise, the majority of vases attributed to the painter have emerged on the international art market without archaeological context.

paragraph: Section::::Forms and output.

paragraph: The Brygos Painter was one of the most productive painters of his generation; more than 200 vases have been attributed to him. Apart from "kylikes", he also painted other vase shapes, such as "skyphoi", "kantharoi", "rhyta", a calathus-like vessel with a pouring spout and a number of "lekythoi". By far the majority of his works were kylikes of the types B and C. The latter were often executed without maeander base lines; the former frequently stood on conical bases. The maeanders around his tondo paintings are rarely continuous, most are interrupted by sets or rows of crosses. Apart from his red-figure work, the Brygos Painter is known to have produced some white-ground vases.

paragraph: Section::::Style and artistry.

paragraph: The Brygos Painter seems to be one of the earliest red-figure artists who were not in direct contact with the so-called Pioneers. His teacher appears to have been Onesimos, as his style is derived from the earlier work of that master, and their periods of production run parallel. Typical subjects are "symposium" and "palaistra" scenes, and his figures are characterized by their flat-topped heads, long noses, and narrow eyes with high, arching eyebrows. While his drawing is not always of the utmost precision, the postures of his figures and the expressiveness of their faces are remarkable. He is also one of the first, and very few, painters who managed to paint a child to look truly like a child, and not like a small adult. Many of his figures also clearly display the effects of age. Stubbly beards or stubbly hair (on old men), as well as signs of balding, are also typical. His skill in painting the human mouth is exceptional: his figures are shown whistling, singing, playing the flute or clenching their lips with a high degree of anatomical accuracy. All this indicates the Brygos Painter was a skilled observer of human emotion, expression, and interaction.

paragraph: His renderings of mythological scenes are frequently original. Thus, he depicts the body of Ajax being covered by Tekmessa, the handing-over of the body of Hector and other scenes from the Trojan War. Dionysiac scenes are common as well. A famous kylix depicts satyrs attacking the goddesses Iris and Hera. While Iris attempts to flee, Hera is protected by Heracles and Hermes. Dionysos is present, but apparently uninvolved. As on many of the Brygos Painter's vases, the figures are named by inscription; at times he even indicates what they say. In spite of his frequent use of writing, "kalos" inscriptions by the Brygos Painter are rare.

paragraph: The Brygos Painter was associated with a broader circle of artists who were influenced by him or may even have worked with him at the studio of the potter Brygos. These include the Foundry Painter, the Briseis Painter, the Dokimasia Painter, the Painter of Louvre G 265 and the Painter of the Paris Gigantomachy. While the Brygos Painter's work spans only a period of approximately twenty years, it has been said to demonstrate what many describe as an exciting, innovative, and spirited beginning with a decline in the later years of his career, characterized by weaker work. This argument, however, assumes that “weaker work” is the product of old age rather than inexperience or even another painter. Indeed, Beazley notes that it is often difficult to determine if a piece is late-Brygan or a simply school piece of another artist emulating his style.

paragraph: BULLET::::- The Getty Museum - Biography of the Brygos Painter "Working in Athens in the early 400s B.C., the Brygos Painter was a prolific decorator of red-figure cups. Over two hundred vases have been attributed to him, including a limited number of shapes other than cups and some vessels in the white-ground technique. Having learned his craft from Onesimos, the Brygos Painter was himself quite influential and was the center of a large circle of painters. The Brygos Painter painted both genre and mythological scenes, being especially fond of depictions of symposia, athletes, and Achilles. His treatments of mythological scenes were often innovative, and he was also rather stylistically experimental. He had a greater interest in spatial effects and setting than did his contemporaries. By using dilute glaze washes to show three-dimensionality, his painting technique comes close to shading. As with most Greek vase-painters, the real name of the Brygos Painter is unknown, and he is identified only by the stylistic traits of his work. He is named after the potter Brygos, with whom he worked. Some scholars think the painter and potter may be one and the same person."

He was educated at Harrow and trained at the Royal Military College, Sandhurst, before being commissioned into the Royal Fusiliers as a second lieutenant on 20 January 1900. He fought in the Second Boer War, and was promoted to lieutenant on 23 February 1901, staying in South Africa until the end of the war, when he returned home on the SS "Assaye" in September 1902. He later served in Mauritius, India, and the British expedition to Tibet.

paragraph: By now a Captain, Chichester distinguished himself in the First World War with his service in France and Italy, becoming a Major with the Irish Guards and winning along with many other awards the DSO (1918) and an OBE (1919).

paragraph: Mary Ann Oatman

paragraph: Mary Ann Oatman (1844–1851) was the sister of Olive Oatman and a survivor of abuse by the Yavapai peoplethough many historians argue that it is impossible to know whether or not these were Yavapai or members of some other tribe.

paragraph: Mary Ann Oatman was born to Royce Oatman and his wife, also named Mary Ann, in Illinois. The Oatmans were members of the Mormon religion.

paragraph: Believing that they were immigrating to a divine country, the Oatmans travelled to Arizona, where they were massacred by Yavapai. The only survivors of the Oatman family massacre were Mary Ann, her sister Olive and brother Lorenzo, who had been injured and left for dead (he is known to have survived after finding a nearby settlement and receiving medical treatment).

paragraph: Mary Ann and her sister Olive were taken as slaves by the Yavapai. Tied with ropes and forced to walk along the Arizonan desert, the girls' health suffered deeply; they became hungry and dehydrated. Whenever they asked for rest or water, they would be poked by the Yavapai with lances.

paragraph: Mary Ann and Olive were forced to hard labor, and they would be bothered by Yavapai children, who used sticks to burn them.

paragraph: In 1851, the sisters were traded to the Mohave tribe for a couple of horses and bags of beans. The Mohave chief and his family welcomed the Oatman sisters with love and care, giving them food and providing them with a family life. Mary Ann after 3–4 years with the Mojave died of starvation during a famine in which many Mojave died as well. Olive stated that Mary Ann died "about a year" before her own release in 1856. The date of Mary Ann's death is significant because it suggests that they had assimilated; a team of men under the command of Amiel Weeks Whipple had been in the area in February and March 1854 to survey a railroad route, and the sisters had not communicated with them. Shortly before dying, she tried to comfort her sister by telling her "I have been a great deal of trouble to you, Olive. You will miss me for a while, but you will not have to work so hard when I'm gone."

paragraph: Ludmila of Bohemia

paragraph: Saint Ludmila (c. 860 – 15 September 921) is a Czech saint and martyr venerated by the Orthodox and the Roman Catholics. She was born in Mělník as the daughter of the Sorbian prince Slavibor. Saint Ludmila was the grandmother of Saint Wenceslaus, who is widely referred to as Good King Wenceslaus.

paragraph: Section::::Marriage.

paragraph: Ludmila was married to Bořivoj I of Bohemia, the first Christian Duke of Bohemia, in 873. The couple was converted to Christianity through the efforts of Saint Methodius. Their efforts to convert Bohemia to Christianity were initially not well received, and they were driven from their country for a time by the pagans. Eventually the couple returned, and ruled for several years before retiring to Tetín, near Beroun.

paragraph: The couple was succeeded by their son Spytihněv. Spytihněv was succeeded by his brother Vratislav. When Vratislav died in 921, his son Wenceslas became the next ruler of Bohemia. It had been mainly Ludmila who raised her grandson and she now acted as regent for him.

paragraph: Section::::Ludmila and Drahomíra.

paragraph: Wenceslaus' mother Drahomíra became jealous of Ludmila's influence over Wenceslaus. She had two noblemen murder Ludmila at Tetín, and part of Ludmila's story says that she was strangled with her veil. Initially, Saint Ludmila was buried at St. Michael's at Tetín.

paragraph: Saint Ludmila was canonized shortly after her death. As part of the process of canonization, in 925, Wenceslaus moved her remains to the St. George's Basilica, Prague. She is venerated as a patroness of Bohemia. She is considered to be a patron saint of Bohemia, converts, Czech Republic, duchesses, problems with in-laws, and widows. Her feast day is celebrated on September 16th.

paragraph: Antonín Dvořák composed his oratorio "Svatá Ludmila" (Saint Ludmila) between September 1885 and May 1886. The work was commissioned by the publisher Littleton for the Leeds Festival.

paragraph: Arnošt Valenta

paragraph: Arnošt Valenta (; 25 October 1912 – 31 March 1944) was a Czechoslovak Army officer who became a Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve radio operator. He was murdered by the Gestapo in March 1944.

paragraph: Section::::Capture.

paragraph: Valenta was a radio operator with the Czechoslovak-crewed No. 311 Squadron RAF, a medium bomber squadron based at RAF East Wretham in Norfolk. His final mission was in Vickers Wellington Mk IC L7842, call sign KX-T. The aircraft's usual radio operator, P/O Jaroslav Partyk, was ill and unable to fly, so Valenta was assigned in his place. The other crew members were:

paragraph: BULLET::::- Sgt 787232 Gustav Kopal, RAF PoW No. 441

paragraph: BULLET::::- P/O 82903 Karel Křižek, RAF PoW No. 407

paragraph: On 6 February 1941 the crew took part in an air raid on Boulogne-sur-Mer in German-occupied France. On the return flight the navigator, P/O Bušina, was taken ill with altitude sickness. The commander, P/O Cigoš, then used the radio to make position checks with England. After a while the radio malfunctioned, so the crew resorted to estimating their position.

paragraph: A strong wind sent the aircraft off course. Running short of fuel, Cigoš misjudged that they were over England, and landed at an airfield at Flers, France. Both the crew and their aircraft were captured. The aircraft was later flown by the "Luftwaffe" at its "Erprobungsstelle" (experimental and test facility) near Rechlin in Mecklenburg.

paragraph: Section::::The Great Escape.

paragraph: Valenta played a significant role in preparations for The Great Escape from Stalag Luft III near Sagan in Germany (now Żagań in Poland) because he was the Head of Contacts (i.e. scrounging) for the "X" Organization in the North Compound. He was among the first pairs of POWs to escape from the camp using the tunnel code named "Harry" on 24 March 1944.

paragraph: Within days Valenta was recaptured near Görlitz in Silesia. He last seen alive on 31 March 1944 in a group with ten other recaptured RAF officers who had been placed in the charge of Walter Scharpwinkel, an SS–"Obersturmbannführer" and "Oberregierungsrat" (senior government councillor) for the Görlitz district. He was one of 50 recaptured POWs who were murdered by the Gestapo on Hitler's orders.

paragraph: After the war, a UK Special Investigation Branch officer interviewed Scharpwinkel about the murders in a Moscow prison in 1946. Sometime later the Soviet authorities announced that Scharpwinkel had died in prison.

paragraph: Jan Abrahamsz Beerstraaten

paragraph: Jan Abrahamsz Beerstraaten (bapt. 1 March 1622 in Amsterdam – buried in July 1666 in Amsterdam?) was a Dutch painter of marine art and landscapes, particularly of events of the First Anglo-Dutch War and Dutch-Swedish War.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: There is some confusion about the identity of four landscape painters named Beerstraaten; Johannes, this Jan Abrahamsz, Abraham, and Anthonie. Jan Abrahamsz, painter, married in Amsterdam on 30 August 1642. From this marriage eleven children were born, and when he married a second time in 1665, a daughter was born. Currently, The RKD records Johannes as the same person, and Abraham Beerstraaten is considered to be his oldest son.

paragraph: Anthonie Beerstraaten was related to this painter. The RKD has registered two paintings signed Anthonie van Beerstraten: one is a view of a southern seaport from 1664 (currently location Enkhuizen) and the other a view of a church in Aarlanderveen in the former city hall of Alphen aan den Rijn. Based on these two paintings C. Hofstede de Groot an early Dutch art historian, classified paintings signed A. Beerstraaten as by Anthonie if they were a poorer grade than ones already attributed to Abraham.

paragraph: Charly B

paragraph: Charly B, born Charles Blanvillain in 1981, is a French reggae singer-songwriter who performs, and whose music is distributed, internationally.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Debut.

paragraph: Born in Rome to a family of music lovers, he is of French, German and Armenian descent. At the age of 4, his family moved back to France, where he spent most of his childhood. He was fascinated by music, and discovered reggae at the age of 15, when he spent a year at IONA High School in Jamaica, living with a Jamaican family, in a program sponsored by the American Field Service. Later on, he studied sound engineering at the School of Recording Arts, Canada and at the Sound and Audio Engineering School in Geneva.

paragraph: He composed his first reggae song at the age of 15. His musical studies in Canada, long visit to Jamaica, and time spent living in France near the Swiss border, together with his international tours, form the cultural underpinnings of his artistic vision. He has collaborated with legends of dancehall reggae such as Capleton, Kiprich, De Marco and Anthony B.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Career.

paragraph: In 2002, at the age of 21, he was voted best DJ in Geneva. In 2003, he wrote a song for the movie "Destination Jamaica" by George Tait (Jungle George) In December 2003, his song "My Queen" was included in a DVD distributed with the Austrian surfers' magazine Methodmag (60,000 copies). In 2005 he was voted the best DJ in Switzerland, in a contest organized by Giddeon Productions. Unfortunately, he was not able to take advantage of the prize, a concert on the main stage of Rototom Sunsplash Festival 2005, as he had committed to visit Jamaica that summer. He therefore gave the prize to Elijah, the runner-up in the competition. In 2007, Eliane Dambre of the Ateliers du Funambule, decided to nominate him for the Eurovision competition as Switzerland's candidate, (in competition with DJ Bobo), but the attempt was made too late to qualify him for the contest. More recently, in 2009, he won an award for "Best Reggae Song" in the Reggae Europe competition. He has hundreds of songs composed by him (music and lyrics), in French and English and in Jamaican slang, registered with the French-based Society of Lyricists, Composers and Music Editors (SACEM). In February 2013, he wins a podium at the Victories of Reggae 2013 in the category "Revelation of the Year". The Jamaican newspapers "Jamaican Observer" write a great article on his career in February 2013, February being the "Reggae Month" In June 2013, he wins the Price of the Public and the best author-composer price at the Zicmeup Competition in Paris organized by Zicmeup/the Voice. In 2015, he joins the TMMG Production group in Kingston and gets a VPal distribution for his single Prophecies Untold, followed in 2016 by "Eyes dem Red" and "Nah Give Up", and in 2017 by "One Phone Call". This collaboration between TMMG and Charly B has led to an album, being released at the end of 2017, with 14 tracks, called JOURNEY OF LIFE.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Studios in Jamaica.

paragraph: 2009-2015: In summer 2009, after winning a competition with Reggae Europe with his song "My Sound", Reggae Europe offered the artist to do some recordings and videos at Geejam Studios in Jamaica.

paragraph: Early in her life, Belle worked as an actress. She studied Oral Interpretation of Literature in school and performed for private events. She later taught acting and elocution to children and considered work as a professional actress before going into politics.

paragraph: In 1903 she married Charles Henry Israels (1864–1911), an artist and architect, whom she met at the Alliance where he had been a volunteer club leader. They had four children, three of whom lived to adulthood: including Carlos Lindner, Miriam, and Joseph. She was widowed in 1911 when Charles committed suicide.

paragraph: She met her second husband, Henry Moskowitz, who had a Ph.D. in Philosophy and was a settlement worker on the Lower East Side, while working with him on dance hall reform. Their paths crossed many times during the tumultuous garment strikes of the era, and they worked together on the investigations that followed the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. They married in 1914. In 1918, she started her work with Al Smith on his campaign for Governor of New York.

paragraph: On December 8, 1932, she fell down the front steps of her house and, while recovering from her broken bones, died of an embolism on January 2, 1933, at age 55.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Her career in social reform began as a young girl with the Temple Israel Sisterhood who collected money, organized sewing for the poor, and worked with United Hebrew Charities. The Sisterhood also organized a "Working Girl's Vacation Fund" and a "Working Girl's Club" to improve the qualities of life for women living in the city.

paragraph: In 1900, at the age of 23, she became a social worker at the Educational Alliance, an organization whose primary focus was cultural assimilation for Jewish immigrants. She held various appointments there, eventually becoming director of entertainments and exhibits. As Belle Israels, her first effort at social reform was to clean up and license the city's commercial dance halls, which she saw as places that got young working girls into trouble. Working through the Council of Jewish Women-New York Section, by 1910 she had won laws that regulated dance hall conditions, including fire and safety and the selling of alcoholic drinks. "The New York Times" stated, "These laws did more to improve the moral surroundings of young girls" than any other single social reform of the period. Her first published article, "Social Work Among Young Women" focused on the importance of clubs in girls' socialization as well as the importance women have in shaping communities. She concluded that when women are influenced by "right ideals, social, moral, artistic, intellectual, the higher becomes their standard of living."

paragraph: This work eventually led to her first major project: The Lakeview Home for Girls, which opened for permanent use 1911. The Lakeview was located on Staten Island and gave young women temporary shelter, as well as aid in finding work. Also with the Council, Moskowitz initiated a program for reform to make dancehalls a safer space for young women, particularly "working girls", by controlling alcohol distribution.

paragraph: After leaving the Alliance, Moskowitz (then Israel) wrote for the United Hebrew Charities and "Charities", a social work journal, for which she later became an editorial assistant. She also joined the New York section of the Council of Jewish Women, yet another organization that helped Jewish immigrants. With her role as chair of the philanthropy committee, her focus was welfare work. She oversaw sick and poor children at a hospital on Randall's Island and visited troubled girls in reformatories.

paragraph: In 1913, after the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, she began working to promote the grievances of workers. She mediated disputes between the Garment District unions and employers. She held this job a job she held until fall 1916.

paragraph: She also worked privately as an industrial mediator, writer, and advisor. In a flyer for her business, she offered counseling for factory planning and employment management that would benefit both employees and employers. She wrote, "“Discontented or poorly trained workers, unsuited to their jobs, threaten the peace of the shop. Whatever threatens peace threatens profit.”

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Work with Al Smith.

paragraph: Al Smith connected with Moskowitz through her work as an industrial mediator and writer. She became one of Smith's most intimate advisers by working as his publicist and he kept her close at hand throughout his tenure as governor. Visitors would note her presence in the corner of his office during critical meetings. Witnesses reported that Smith would even defer to her on major legislative proposals, waiting for her approval before making final decisions. She advised him throughout the process of enacting broad reforms for the state of New York that would later inspire and direct Franklin Delano Roosevelt in the development of the New Deal during his presidency in 1932.

paragraph: When Smith became the Democratic Party candidate for President in 1928, Moskowitz worked as his campaign manager.

paragraph: She worked as his press agent during his attempt for renomination in 1932.
