paragraph: Gregorio López (jurist)

paragraph: Gregorio López (Guadalupe, Cáceres, Spain 1496 - 1560) was a president of the Consejo de Indias, humanist, jurist and lawyer.

paragraph: López most important work is an annotated edition of the Siete Partidas published for the first time in 1555. The "Siete Partidas" is a legal code divided into seven parts ("partidas") compiled under the reign of Alfonso X the Wise, and which was followed for centuries in Spain, Latin America, and the United States. It was considered to be the authentic text of the medieval work of the Castilian king. The annotated copy contains López certification as of September 7, 1555 that it is a true copy of the earlier text; however, no one has established which manuscript or manuscripts were used for the edition.

paragraph: López served as mayor of the "Puebla de Guadalupe", a municipality in the province of Cáceres. He married the niece of Conquistador Francisco Pizarro. He died in Guadalupe in 1560, and was buried in the city's "Monasterio de Santa María" (Monastery of Santa Maria). The front of his Italian Renaissance-style palace survives to today.

paragraph: He is sometimes confused with Gregorio López de Tovar, his grandson.

paragraph: George Scot of Pitlochie

paragraph: George Scot or Scott (died 1685) of Pitlochie, Fife was a Scottish writer on colonisation in North America.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: He was the only son of John Scot of Scotstarvet by his second wife, Elizabeth Melville, daughter of Sir James Melville, 2nd of Halhill. Scot was a Covenanter, and was fined and imprisoned in 1674. In 1676, further charges were laid against Scot and his wife; and in 1677, having failed to appear when summoned by the Scottish council, he was declared a fugitive. He was arrested in Edinburgh. Imprisoned on Bass Rock, he was released later in the year on bond.

paragraph: In 1679, Scot was questioned about John Balfour of Kinloch, involved in the murder of James Sharp. He spent time in London, where he made contact with Scots planning colonial projects; and was imprisoned again. Released in 1684, he put together a colonisation scheme, involving the preacher Archibald Riddell who was his wife's cousin, and went willingly being at the time imprisoned on the Bass Rock. Lacking other support, a group of Covenanters being held prisoner in Dunnottar Castle and other prisoners of conscience from the jails of Edinburgh were given to Scot, many of whom were likely taken against their will to the plantations. Several of the prisoners were tortured because they had tried to escape. One of the prisoners was John Fraser who was captured with Alexander Shields at a conventicle in London. About 40 of the prisoners had their ears cut and women who had disowned the king were branded on the shoulder so they might be recognised and hung if they returned.

paragraph: In recognition of his services as a writer, Scot received from the proprietors of East New Jersey a grant, dated 28 July 1685, of five hundred acres of land in the province.

paragraph: On 1 August Scot embarked in the "Henry and Francis" with nearly two hundred others, including his wife and family; but he and his wife died on the voyage.

paragraph: The individuals transported to America by George Scot had been purchased and were severely mistreated, according to Robert Wodrow.

paragraph: Section::::Works.

paragraph: In 1685 Scot published at Edinburgh "The Model of the Government of the Province of East New Jersey, in America; and Encouragement for such as design to be concerned there". It was, says the author, the outcome of a visit to London in 1679, when he met "several substantial and judicious gentlemen concerned in the American plantations". Among them were James Drummond, 4th Earl of Perth, to whom the book is dedicated, and probably William Penn. The work included a series of letters from the early settlers in New Jersey.

paragraph: "The Model" was plagiarised by Samuel Smith (1720–1776) in his "History" of New Jersey (1765), and is quoted by George Bancroft; James Grahame (1790–1842) author of the "Rise and Progress of the United States", emphasised it. It was reprinted for the New Jersey Historical Society in 1846, in William Adee Whitehead's "East Jersey under the Proprietory Government" (2nd edition 1875). In some copies a passage (p. 37) recommending religious freedom as an inducement to emigration is modified.

paragraph: Section::::Family.

paragraph: Scot married in 1663 Margaret, daughter of William Rigg of Aithernie.

paragraph: A son and a daughter survived the Atlantic voyage. The latter, Euphaim, married in 1686, John Johnstone, an Edinburgh druggist, who had been one of her fellow-passengers on the voyage to New Jersey. To him the proprietors issued, on 13 January 1687, a confirmation of the grant made to Scot.

paragraph: Scot's descendants occupied a position in the colony until the American Revolution. At that point most left as Loyalists, but some remained.

paragraph: Section::::Divorce and remarriage.

paragraph: Her marriage to Viscount Althorp was not a happy one and, in 1967, she left him to be with Peter Shand Kydd, an heir to a wallpaper fortune in Australia whom she had met the year before. His half-brother was the former champion amateur jockey William Shand Kydd (1937–2014), who was the brother-in-law of John Bingham, 7th Earl of Lucan.

paragraph: Subsequently, she was named "the other woman" in Janet Shand Kydd's divorce action against her husband.

paragraph: Frances and Peter Shand Kydd were married on 2 May 1969 and lived on the Scottish island of Seil, where they bought an 18th-century farmhouse called Ardencaple, just 10 kilometres from Oban.

paragraph: In 1996, she was banned from driving after being convicted of drunk-driving, but denied she had a problem with alcohol. She and Diana quarrelled in May 1997, after she told "Hello!" magazine that Diana was happy to lose her style of "Royal Highness" following her controversial divorce from Prince Charles. She was reportedly not on speaking terms with her daughter by the time of Diana's death.

paragraph: She spent her later years in solitude on Seil. She became a Roman Catholic and devoted herself to Catholic charities. She eventually became involved with the Handicapped Children's Trust, the Royal National Mission for Deep Sea Fishermen, the Mallaig and Northwest Fishermen's Association, and the National Search and Rescue Dogs Association.

paragraph: Section::::Death and burial.

paragraph: Shand Kydd died at her home in Scotland at the age of 68 on 3 June 2004, following a long illness that included Parkinson's disease and brain cancer. Her funeral at the Roman Catholic cathedral in Oban on 10 June was attended by her children and grandchildren, including Princes William (who gave a reading) and Harry. Their father, her former son-in-law, Charles, Prince of Wales, did not attend because he was on the way to another funeral—going to Washington to lead the British delegation at the state funeral of the former US President Ronald Reagan the following day. Shand Kydd was buried in the local graveyard on the outskirts of Oban in Argyll.

paragraph: Henri-Cardin-Jean-Baptiste d'Aguesseau

paragraph: Henri-Cardin-Jean-Baptiste d'Aguesseau, Marquis d'Aguesseau (23 August 1752, Paris22 January 1826), grandson of the French chancellor Henri François d'Aguesseau, was "advocate-general" in the "parlement" of Paris and deputy in the Estates-General. Under the Consulate he became president of the court of appeal and later minister at Copenhagen. He was elected to the Académie française in 1787.

paragraph: Section::::Works.

paragraph: Of d'Aguesseau's works the most complete edition is that of the eminent lawyer Jean Marie Pardessus, published in 16 vols. (1818–1820); his letters were edited separately by Rives (1823); a selection of his works, (OEuvres choisies, was issued, with a biographical notice, by E Falconnet in 2 vols. (Paris, 1865).)

paragraph: The far greater part of his works relate to matters connected with his profession, but they also contain an elaborate treatise on money; several theological essays; a life of his father, which is interesting from the account which it gives of his own early education; and "Metaphysical Meditations", written to prove that, independently of all revelation and all positive law, there is that in the constitution of the human mind which renders man a law to himself.

paragraph: See Boullée, "Histoire de la vie et des ouvrages du chancelier d'Aguesseau" (Paris, 1835); Fr. Monnier, "Le Chancelier d'Aguesseau" (Paris, 1860; 2nd ed., 1863); Charles Butler, "Mem. of Life of H. F. d'Aguesseau", etc. (1830).

Built in honor of his sister, Lady Margaret Milbank, the church was completed in 1855. He was patron of several advowsons in addition to lordships of manors.

paragraph: Following his second marriage to Catherine Cox, the Earl commissioned the architect, Mr. M.J. Dain of Dain and Parsons, London, to design a hall for him to replace the old hunting lodge the Grey's used in the village of Groby, Leicestershire during the hunting season, which was named Bradgate House. Built by local builder Thomas Rudkin, Bradgate House was completed in 1856 and was built in the Jacobean style.

paragraph: Abigail Scott Duniway

paragraph: Abigail Scott Duniway (October 22, 1834 – October 11, 1915) was an American women's rights advocate, newspaper editor and writer, whose efforts were instrumental in gaining voting rights for women.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Abigail S. Duniway was born Abigail Jane Scott near Groveland, Illinois, to John Tucker Scott and Anne Roelofson Scott. Of the nine children in her family who survived infancy, she was the second. She grew up on the family farm and attended a local school intermittently. In March 1852, against the wishes of Anne Scott, who had concerns about her health, John organized a party of 30 people and 5 ox-drawn wagons to emigrate to Oregon, away by trail. Anne died of cholera near Fort Laramie, on the Oregon Trail, in June, and Willie, age 3, the youngest child in the family, died in August along the Burnt River in Oregon. In October, the emigrants reached their destination, Lafayette, in the Willamette Valley. After teaching school in Eola in early 1853, Abigail Scott Duniway married Benjamin Charles Duniway, a farmer from Illinois, on August 1. They had six children: Clara Belle (b. 1854), Willis Scott (1856), Hubert (1859), Wilkie Collins (1861), Clyde Augustus (1866), and Ralph Roelofson (1869).

paragraph: The Duniways farmed in Clackamas County until 1857, when they moved to a farm near Lafayette. They lost this second farm after a friend defaulted on a note Benjamin had endorsed. Soon afterward, Benjamin was permanently disabled in an accident involving a runaway team, and Abigail had to support the family. At first, she opened and ran a small boarding school in Lafayette. In 1866, she moved to Albany where she taught in a private school for a year, then opened a millinery and notions shop, which she ran for five years. Angered by stories of injustice and mistreatment relayed to her by married patrons of her shop, and encouraged by Benjamin, she moved to Portland in 1871 to found "The New Northwest", a weekly newspaper devoted to women's rights, including suffrage. She published the first issue on May 5, 1871, and continued "The New Northwest" for 16 years.

paragraph: In 1872 she was invited to address Oregon's legislature to put forward the case for women's suffrage. She was appearing on behalf of the Oregon State Woman Suffrage Association but no one wanted to keep her company. Other women feared what their husband's and others might say. Finally she found Dr Mary Sawtelle who agreed to also venture into this male only preserve.

paragraph: Duniway encountered personal setbacks such as poor health, money problems, and opposition from her brother Harvey W. Scott, who also edited a Portland paper, "The Oregonian". He thought women didn't want to vote, writing many articles on this subject. She persisted despite political opposition in the form of local resistance, the consistent failure of women's suffrage referendums on state ballots, and divisions with Eastern suffrage organizations. She and her newspaper actively supported the Sole Trader Bill and the Married Women's Property Act which, when passed, gave Oregon women the right to own and control property.

paragraph: Her persistence paid off in 1912 when Oregon became the seventh state in the U.S. to pass a women's suffrage amendment. Governor Oswald West asked her to write and sign the equal suffrage proclamation. She was the first woman to register to vote in Multnomah County.

paragraph: Duniway is buried at River View Cemetery in Portland.

paragraph: Section::::Publications.

paragraph: Duniway's "Captain Gray's Company; or, Crossing the Plains and Living in Oregon" (1859), was the first novel to be commercially published in Oregon. This and others that she wrote drew repeatedly on her experiences as a young woman on the Oregon Trail. Her last novel to tell the story was "From the West to the West: Across the Plains to Oregon" (1905). She wrote a booklet called "My Musings" after attending a convention of the National Woman Suffrage Association in 1872. Her last publication was "Path Breaking: An Autobiographical History of the Equal Suffrage Movement in Pacific Coast States", in 1914.

paragraph: Whitman was born into slavery at a farm near Munfordville, Kentucky. After years as a manual laborer, working at a plowshop, on railroad construction and as a teacher, Whitman attended Wilberforce University in 1870. There he studied with Bishop Daniel Payne. Whitman stated that he wrote his 1877 poem "Not a Man and Yet a Man" so that "he might speak more effectively for Wilberforce."

paragraph: Section::::Later life and family.

paragraph: After six months at Wilberforce, Whitman left to become the financial agent for the university and an African Methodist Episcopal Church pastor in Springfield, Ohio. He later took other pastoral positions between 1879 and 1883, leading and establishing churches in Ohio, Georgia, Kansas, and Texas. He died in 1901 of pneumonia.

paragraph: Whitman had a wife, named Caddie, and four daughters. The daughters formed the vaudeville troupe The Whitman Sisters, who performed together from 1900 to the 1940s.

paragraph: Section::::Style and influence.

paragraph: Joan Sherman's entry in "African-American Poetry of the Nineteenth Century" refers to Whitman's poetry as "attempts at full-blown Romantic poetry", emulating the American and British authors from that tradition. Yet Dickson Bruce argues that "Whitman went beyond sentimental ideals in his understanding of literature, and even beyond the ideological directions outlined by Douglass and his colleagues." Albery Whitman's poems are not regularly reprinted in modern anthologies of Black poetry. Benjamin Brawley referred to Whitman as "probably the ablest of the race before Dunbar,"; and a recent scholar echoes this view, asserting that Whitman was, "one of the most important African American poets between Phillis Wheatley and Paul Laurence Dunbar and probably the most prolific."

paragraph: In 1901, shortly before his death, Whitman published "An Idyl of the South: An Epic Poem in Two Parts". The opening four lines suggest high romantic poetry through a sentimental reflection on the South: "Hail land of the palmetto and the pine,/From Blue Ridge Mountain down to Mexic's sea/Sweet with magnolia and cape jassamine,/And thrilled with song, — thou art the land for me!" Ivy Wilson notes that Whitman employed "multitudinous metrical configurations" and that "he was consumed with the aesthetics of sound. Much of his major volumes read like novels in verse."

paragraph: Marianus II of Arborea

paragraph: Marianus II (Italian: "Mariano II") (died 1297) was the Giudice of Arborea from 1241 to his death. With skilled military action, he came to control more than half of the island of Sardinia. By his control of the vast central plains and the rich deposits of precious metals, he increased the riches of his "giudicato" and staved off the general economic decline affecting the rest of Europe at the time.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: He was the son and successor of Peter II of Arborea of the Bas-Serra family and a local woman named Sardinia. He succeeded to the throne at a young age under the regency of William of Capraia, a distant relative. William was the son of Bina de Lacon, widow of Peter I, and Hugh of Capraia, Count of Prato. William and his brothers Anselm and Berthold were pupils at the court of Peter II, who designated William regent for his son.

paragraph: On William's death in 1264, Marianus did not take the full reins of power, but instead had to recognize the co-dominion of William's son Nicholas. In 1270, he imprisoned Nicholas, and in 1274 had him killed and began to govern himself, though he was soon opposed by Berthold's son Anselm, who held Cagliari.

paragraph: Marianus was a close ally of the Republic of Pisa, the most powerful force on Sardinia in the mid-thirteenth century, and received Pisan citizenship on 17 June 1265. He often lived in Pisa and there he met his wife, a daughter of Andreotto Saraceno Caldera. In 1287, he married his son John with Giacomina, daughter of Ugolino della Gherardesca, of whom he was a partisan. Marianus was widowed by 1293.

paragraph: In 1274, he embarked on a series of belligerent adventures to extend his power into Cagliari and Logudoro. He conquered the castle of Monforte on the Nurra and restored it, leaving an epigraph now in the museum of Sassari. In 1277, his conquests were recognised by Pope John XXI. He had annexed part of Montiferru as far as Monte Acuto with all its castles. He thus divided the Logudorese "giudicato" into a south and north. He was appointed vicar general of Logudoro.

paragraph: In 1284, Marianus solicited the aid of Peter III of Aragon to retake Cagliari. In 1287, Anselm was defeated and killed.

paragraph: On 4 January 1295, he made a political about turn and left the third part of Cagliari to Pisa. A little later, he took part with his Gherardeschi in-laws in the siege of Villa di Chiesa, defended by the Guelphs of Donoratico. He was wounded and took refuge in San Leonardo di Siete Fuentes, where, according to some sources, he was poisoned in 1297 by the Pisans who wanted to extend their authority in Cagliari to the Argentiera of Cixerri.

paragraph: Asides from his son and successor, John, he left a daughter and an illegitimate son named Barisone (died 1305).

paragraph: Antoine Louis

paragraph: Antoine Louis (13 February 1723, Metz – 20 May 1792) was an 18th-century French surgeon and physiologist.

paragraph: He was originally trained in medicine by his father, a surgeon-major at a local military hospital. As a young man he moved to Paris, where he served as "gagnant-maîtrise" at the Salpêtrière. In 1750 he was appointed professor of physiology, a position he held for 40 years. In 1764 he was appointed lifetime secretary to the Académie Royale de Chirurgie.

paragraph: Louis published numerous articles on surgery, including several biographies of surgeons who died in his lifetime. He also published the surgical aphorisms of Dutch physician Herman Boerhaave (1668–1738).

paragraph: Louis is credited with designing a prototype of the guillotine. For a period of time after its invention, the guillotine was called a "louisette". However, it was later named after French physician Joseph Ignace Guillotin (1738–1814), whose advocacy of a more humane method of capital punishment prompted the guillotine's design.

paragraph: The "angle of Louis" is another name for the sternal angle, which is the point of junction between the manubrium and the body of the sternum.

paragraph: Irene Loughlin

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Irene Loughlin was born on May 20 of 1967 in Hamilton, Canada. Loughlin is most known for her amazing performance artwork, writings, and cultural work. As she currently resides in Canada, it has continued to be the birth place of her art. Through Loughlin's art she has been able to touch the lives of many individuals and it has given the them a new perspective on real world matters.

paragraph: Her art embodies real life images of feminism, health activism, to even anti-poverty movements. As Loughlin has practiced her art over the last 15 years, the artworks created have focused more on images to challenge many social constructs such as mental illnesses, visual metaphors of medicine, and ecological landscapes in order to comment on contemporary emotive discourses. The works of art created all stem from images drawn from Loughlin's experiences or witnessed throughout her life such as areas regarding childhood, spiritualism, labour, exercise, depression, diagnosis, sexual abuse, processed foods, rehabilitation, happiness and nourishment, hope, class distinction, sexuality, desire, speech, addiction, therapy, silence, and historical re-enactments.

paragraph: Loughlin further developed her practice as an artist in Vancouver near the historic Downtown Eastside neighborhood. There she has contributed to the activist and disability community through gallery Gachet, VANDU, and the Carnegie Centre. Loughlin has had the opportunity to display and talk about her artwork in multiple national and international contexts. Her most recent performance was at The Month Performance Art Berlin at the Enabled Manifesto Project. This was a workshop was culminated in a collective, corporeal manifesto that focused on disabilities and experience theories.

paragraph: Irene Loughlin currently also works as an instructor in Interdisciplinary Practice, Intermedia and Foundation Studio, at Bock University.

paragraph: Section::::Notable Artwork.

paragraph: This image of Irene Loughlin's performance art is called, "light as a feather heavy as lead." This work is to reflect the prosecution of women in the 13 to the 17 century. Specifically focusing in on the practice of identifying and murdering women who were accused of witchcraft in North and European America. There was an oral element to this piece as well. The oral element featured young girls reciting an old lavation spell on loop. The performance was done with the help of artist Victor Vega at Klaus Steinmetz Gallery.

paragraph: This Image of Irene Loughlin's performance art is called, Ayles Ice Shelf." It was done at Htmlles, Studio XX, in Montreal, 2005. It was created as a way to speak about the separation of the Ayles Ice shelf, that separated from the North Pole. This piece embodies the frustration and futility felt by an individual who is facing global warming and its consequences. In this preformace the human body interacts with materials that are associated with seperation adn migration of the Ayles Ice Shelf.

paragraph: This image remains untitled and was created in 2012, by Loughlin and curated by Shannon Cochrane. This art performance was to explore mental illnesses in children as well as young adults. The work is to represent the feelings of anxiety, depression, and dissociation. It included actions of resistance and succumbing to social constructs that surround the idea of mental illnesses.

paragraph: The image to the right was conducted at EPI International Performance center in Chile, 2012. It was created by Irene Loughlin and curated by Alperoa Lota. Here Irene is buried by materials from the earth and work of Lota - coal. It is to resemble the industrial material that is seen with mining and as a way of heating homes. This performance art is dedicated to Isadora Goyencha, as a relation to herself and women in the community of Lota. Irene speaks of this piece as also being a resemblance of her own life living in the industrial steel city of Hamilton.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: His parents moved to Ghana before he was a year old, and he grew up in an artistic household where both parents were avid collectors of music and had an interest in the arts. He attended Adisadel College. It was while he was at Adisadel that he began rapping his favorite lyrics with high school friends and performing the local circuit in Cape Coast and Takoradi. It was here that his enduring musical partnership with the songwriter M3NSA, was formed. He then moved to the United States for college in 2000 where he attended the University of Mary Hardin Baylor. He dropped out after two years of studying Computer Science and Business Administration and from then on was to dedicate himself fully to his musical career.

paragraph: Section::::Musical career.

paragraph: Kubolor is affiliated with the Ghanaian-based production house Pidgen Music. Out of his musical and personal experiences, he has succeeded in creating a space to share his art comfortably. In refusing to modify his versatile style to fit the mould of pre-existing genres, Kubolor hopes to inspire others to create a personal evolutionary path for positive change.

paragraph: His widely acclaimed versatility is heard on his debut album "Green Card", released in late 2007 on his return to Ghana after a 7-year stay in the USA. Already being referred to as an icon, this enigmatic man has gone on to capture the hearts and minds of the people of Ghana. Though at home with his fans, he is also no stranger to the company of internationally acclaimed musicians. Wanlov the Kubolor has had the honor of collaborating with Gyedu-Blay Ambolley, Ghana's Rap pioneer / Highlife legend, Reggie Rockstone, the Godfather of Hiplife, amongst other well-respected artists worldwide. His flair for the extraordinary has netted him wide acclaim and in this well-earned popularity, Kubolor was recently chosen as one of 5 artists to represent Africa as a lyricist/songwriter in the "Routes to Roots" project. A collaborative initiative conceived by Bigga Fish, a UK-based organization that engages young people through creative mediums, Routes to Roots is a musical project with 10 Artists carefully selected from Africa and the UK to record an album that represents all sides of the cultural spectrum.
