paragraph: Thomas Cheney

paragraph: Sir Thomas Cheney (or Cheyne) KG (c. 1485 – 16 December 1558) was an English administrator and diplomat, Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports in South-East England from 1536 until his death.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Thomas Cheney, born about 1485, was the son of William Cheney (d.1487) of Shurland Hall near Eastchurch, in the Isle of Sheppey, Kent, Constable of Queenborough Castle and Sheriff of Kent in 1477, by his second wife, Margaret Young.

paragraph: Thomas Cheney's father, William, was the eldest surviving of eight sons and a daughter, and at his death in 1487 his property in Kent was inherited by Francis Cheney (d.1512), his son and heir by his first marriage, but was in the possession of Francis Cheney's uncle, John Cheyne, Baron Cheyne until the latter's death without issue in 1499. Baron Cheyne's heir, his brother, Robert Cheney, died without issue in 1503, at which time Francis Cheney 'wrongfully took possession of their lands in Berkshire and Kent which should by an earlier settlement have passed to John, the son of a younger brother Roger'. Francis Cheney died without issue in January 1512, and Thomas Cheney succeeded to his father William's lands; however the other properties wrongfully acquired by Francis Cheney were awarded in 1515 to his cousin, John son of Roger Cheyne (d. 1499) of West Woodhay, Berkshire.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Cheney was appointed Sheriff of Kent in 1515, and was Justice of the Peace for Kent from 1526 until his death.

paragraph: He was a favourite of Henry VIII's mistress, Anne Boleyn, and she fought Cardinal Wolsey for his promotion in 1528 and 1529. However, it was not until 1535–40 that Cheney consolidated his authority as one of the most powerful men in the south-east of England. From Henry VIII's coming to the throne of England in 1509, Cheney served as Lord Warden, spanning the reigns of all five of the Tudor monarchs. Cheney was present at the Field of the Cloth of Gold in 1520, and served three times as an ambassador to France, under the authority of Henry VIII and Charles V of France, between 1549 and 1553. He was Treasurer of the Household from early 1530, and he is recorded as being present at over half of the Privy Council meetings held between 1540 and 1543.

paragraph: He represented Kent as a knight of the shire in every parliament from 1539 to 1558 with the single exception of the election in 1555.

paragraph: ""Cheyne was among those councillors entrusted with the government of the realm during Somerset's Scottish campaign of 1547.""

paragraph: ""He was among those who sanctioned Gardiner's imprisonment in June 1548, and he was involved in the interrogation of Sir Thomas Seymour in 1549.""

paragraph: In 1550, he became a privy counsellor and owner of the Manor of Ospringe (in the parish of Faversham).

paragraph: Thomas Cheyne opposed the plan to place Lady Jane Grey on the throne, and although he acquiesced with Northumberland's policy, he pledged his support for Mary I as soon as he felt it safe so to do. So fickle a courtier was he that the Marian Court privately distrusted his loyalty during the outbreak of a rebellion represented for Kent by his 'friend and neighbour' Sir Thomas Wyatt in the attack on London in 1554, but the very fact that he sent men against Northumberland indicates something of his position. Cheney was initially distrusted by Mary, as she confessed to the imperial(?) ambassador, his 'early show of support' proving shrewd as Cheney retained his position as 'Treasurer of the Household' whilst other household officers were replaced.

paragraph: As the Constable of Saltwood Castle (near Hythe), Queenborough Castle (in Sheppey), Rochester Castle and Dover Castle, Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports and Lord Lieutenant of Kent (1551–3), Thomas Cheney was much 'involved with musters and coastal defence'. Sir Thomas Cheyne was appointed Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports on 17 May 1536 and appears to have been deprived of the office soon after Edward VI's accession, but was granted it back to him the following April.

paragraph: Conspicuously in April 1545 Cheney suffered a bout of illness, and was temporarily replaced in his duties as the Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports by Sir Thomas Seymour, Hertford's brother. For the next 4 months Cheney delegated his responsibilities in the Cinque Ports and Kent to Seymour.

paragraph: Cheney died 16 December 1558 at the Tower of London, and was buried on 3 January 1559 in St Katherine's chapel of Minster Abbey on the Isle of Sheppey. He was survived by his son, Henry, and three daughters, Anne, Frances and Katherine. His will and the elaborate proceedings at his funeral were entirely consistent with the orthodox Catholicism of the period, showing him to have been conservative. In his will dated 6 December 1558, Cheney mentioned various properties which together gave him an annual rent of over £950, and after his death it was estimated that he maintained between 200-300 servants and retainers.

paragraph: Section::::Marriages and issue.

paragraph: Cheney married firstly, by 1515, Frideswide Frowyk (died c.1528), the daughter of Sir Thomas Frowyk, by whom he had a son and three daughters:

paragraph: BULLET::::- John Cheney, who predeceased his father.

paragraph: BULLET::::- Anne Cheney (d.1553), who married Sir John Perrot, Lord Deputy of Ireland.

paragraph: BULLET::::- Frances Cheney (d.1561), who married Nicholas Crispe (d.1564).

paragraph: BULLET::::- Katherine Cheney (d. before 1550), who married Sir Thomas Kempe (d.7 March 1591) of Olantigh in Wye, Kent, by whom she had three daughters, Margaret Kempe, who married William Cromer (d. 12 May 1598); Anne Kempe, who married Sir Thomas Shirley, and Alice Kempe, who married firstly Sir James Hales (d.1589), grandson of Sir James Hales (d.1554), and secondly Sir Richard Lee (d.1608), illegitimate half-brother of Queen Elizabeth's champion, Sir Henry Lee.

paragraph: According to Lennard, Anne, Frances and Katherine were all daughters of Cheney's first marriage:

paragraph: Sir Henry Cheyne, knight, summoned in 1572 as Lord Cheyne of Toddington, died s.p. in 1587, having wasted his estate. His three half-sisters, daughters of the first marriage of his father Sir Thomas Cheyne of Sheppey, K.G., were his coheirs. Anne Cheyne, the third of these, was the first wife of Sir John Perrot, the lord deputy of Ireland, and mother of Sir Thomas Perrot his heir. Sir John Perrot, who was reckoned a bastard son of Henry VIII., died in 1592.

paragraph: Cheney married secondly, by dispensation dated 24 May 1539, Anne Broughton (d. 16 May 1562), stepdaughter and ward of John Russell, 1st Earl of Bedford, and daughter of Sir John Broughton (d. 24 January 1518) of Toddington, Bedfordshire, by Anne Sapcote (d. 14 March 1559), and granddaughter of Sir Robert Broughton by his first wife, Katherine de Vere, said to have been the illegitimate daughter of John de Vere, 13th Earl of Oxford, by whom he had a son, Henry Cheyne, 1st Baron Cheyne of Toddington, and a daughter. There is a monument to Cheyney's second wife at Toddington.

paragraph: Cheney also had an illegitimate son and daughter.

paragraph: Ahmose (queen)

paragraph: Ahmose was an Ancient Egyptian queen in the Eighteenth Dynasty. She was the Great Royal Wife of the dynasty's third pharaoh, Thutmose I, and the mother of the queen and pharaoh Hatshepsut. Her name means "Born of the Moon".

paragraph: Section::::Family.

paragraph: It is not known who Ahmose's father and mother were. It has been suggested that Ahmose was either a daughter of pharaoh Amenhotep I or a daughter of pharaoh Ahmose I and possibly Ahmose I's sister-wife Ahmose-Nefertari. Ahmose was never called a "King's Daughter". This fact creates some doubt about these theories about Ahmose's royal family connections. However, Ahmose did hold the title "King's Sister". This may suggest that she was a sister of pharaoh Thutmose I.

paragraph: Ahmose is identified with an impressive array of titles: "Hereditary Princess" (iryt-p`t), "Great of Praises" (wrt-hzwt), "Mistress of Great Beloved Sweetness" (nebt-bnrt-‘3(t)-mrwt), "Great King’s Wife, his beloved" (hmt-niswt-wrt meryt.f), "Mistress of Gladness" (hnwt-ndjm-ib), "Lady of all Women" (hnwt-hmwt-nbwt), "Mistress of the Two Lands" (hnwt-t3wy), "Companion of Horus" (zm3yt-hrw), "Beloved Companion of Horus" (zm3yt-hrw-mryt.f), "King’s Sister" (snt-niswt)

paragraph: Ahmose was the Great Royal Wife of Thutmose I. She is depicted in Deir-el-Bahari and she appears there with a daughter named Neferubity. Ahmose was also the mother of the queen-pharaoh Hatshepsut. It is not known with certainty whether Princes Amenmose and Wadjmose were her sons. They are generally thought to be the sons of Queen Mutnofret, another wife of Tuthmose I.

paragraph: Section::::Monuments and Inscriptions.

paragraph: An official named Yuf served as the second prophet of the dues ("S'w") of the altar, the door-keeper of the temple, and as a priest. He also served a number of royal women. He first served queen Ahhotep, the mother of pharaoh Ahmose I, he was responsible for repairing the disturbed tomb of Queen Sobekemsaf, and eventually served Queen Ahmose. Yuf recorded that Queen Ahmose appointed him as assistant treasurer and entrusted him with the service to a statue of her majesty

paragraph: Ahmose features prominently in the divine conception scenes. Hatshepsut had scenes created showing how the god Amun approached her mother, Ahmose, and how she (Hatshepsut) was of divine birth. The inscriptions show how the god Thoth first mentions Queen Ahmose to Amun. "Ahmose is her name, the beneficent, mistress of [--], She is the wife of the king Aakheperkare (Thutmose I), given life forever" (from Breasted's Ancient Records). The god Amun then proceeds to the palace and makes himself known to the Queen. They proceed to conceive a child and Amun declares that she should be named Khnemet-Amun-Hatshepsut. Amun proceeds to the god Khnum and instructs him to create Hatshepsut. The scenes continue to show the confinement of the queen and the birth of her divine daughter.

paragraph: Many years later Pharaoh Amenhotep III copied these scenes almost exactly to show how Amun visited his mother queen Mutemwiya and conceived the royal prince.

paragraph: Silbannacus

paragraph: Mar. Silbannacus is a mysterious figure believed to have been a usurper in the Roman Empire during the time of Philip I (244-249), or between the fall of Aemilianus and the rise to power of Valerian (253).

paragraph: Silbannacus had been known only from a single coin, an "antoninianus" reputedly found in Lorraine, which is now at the British Museum. This coin has an obverse with the portrait of the usurper and the legend ("Imperator Mar. Silbannacus Augustus"), the reverse shows Mercury holding a Victoria and a "caduceus", with ("Augusta Victoria") as legend. The name Silbannacus shows a Celtic origin, the "-acus" suffix; given the location of the coin, Silbannacus could have been a military commander in Germania Superior. As the coin was dated to Philip the Arab's age, it is possible he revolted against Philip, with his revolt ending under Emperor Decius, since Eutropius (ix.4) reports a "bellum civile" was suppressed in Gaul during this emperor's rule.

paragraph: A second "antoninianus" was published in 1996, bearing the shortened legend ("To Mars the defender"). According to the style, the coin was coined in Rome; since the shortened legend is present on Aemilianus coins, in 253, Silbannacus might have prevailed here during the march of Valerian on Rome. An interpretation of these facts leads to Silbannacus being an officer who was left in garrison in Rome while his emperor, Aemilianus, left to face his rival Valerian. After the defeat and the death of Aemilianus in September 253, Silbannacus would have tried to become emperor with the support of the troops confined in Rome, thus controlling the monetary workshop, before being quickly eliminated by Valerian and his son Gallienus.

paragraph: Pacatianus

paragraph: Tiberius Claudius Marinus Pacatianus (died "c." 248) was a usurper in the Danube area of the Roman Empire during the time of Philip the Arab.

paragraph: He is known from coins, and from mentions in Zosimus and Zonaras, who say that he was an officer in one of the Danube legions. According to Zosimus, the revolts of Pacatianus in Moesia (he probably controlled Viminacium) and Iotapianus in Syria prompted Philip to make an offer to the Roman Senate to step down, but the senator Decius (who was sent by Philip to deal with the rebellion), correctly predicted that Pacatianus would soon be killed by his own men before his own arrival.

paragraph: Rodolphe Töpffer

paragraph: Rodolphe Töpffer (; ; 31 January 1799 – 8 June 1846) was a Swiss teacher, author, painter, cartoonist, and caricaturist. He is best known for his illustrated books ("littérature en estampes", "graphic literature"), which are possibly the earliest European comics. He is known as the father of comic strips and has been credited as the "first comics artist in history."

paragraph: Paris-educated, Töpffer worked as a schoolteacher and ran a boarding school, where he entertained students with his caricatures. In 1837, he published (published in the United States in 1842 as "The Adventures of Obadiah Oldbuck"). Each page of the book had one to six captioned cartoon panels, much like modern comics. Töpffer published several more of these books, and wrote theoretical essays on the form.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Töpffer was born on 31 January 1799 in Geneva, Léman, French First Republic. His father, painter and occasional caricaturist Wolfgang-Adam Töpffer, had come from Franconia. Rodolphe was educated in Paris from 1819 to 1820, then returned to Geneva and became a school teacher. By 1823 he established his own boarding school for boys. In 1832 he was appointed Professor of Literature at the University of Geneva.

paragraph: Relatively successful in his profession, Rodolphe gained fame from activities he pursued in his spare time. He painted local landscapes in a style considered influenced by contemporary Romanticism. He wrote short stories and entertained his students by drawing caricatures. He collected these caricatures in books; the first of them, ("The Story of Mr. Wooden Head"), was completed by 1827 but not published until 1837. It was 30 pages, each containing one to six captioned panels. It was translated and republished in the United States in 1842 as "The Adventures of Obadiah Oldbuck". The stories were reproduced by "autography", a variation of lithography that allowed him to draw on specially prepared paper with a pen. The process allowed for a loose line, and was quicker and freer than the more common engraving process.

paragraph: Section::::Publications.

paragraph: The comedic story was not originally intended for publication but Rodolphe continued to create others in his spare time to entertain his acquaintances. Notable among them was Johann Wolfgang von Goethe who in 1831 persuaded Rodolphe to publish his stories. Seven of them were eventually published in newspaper form across Europe but Goethe would not live to see them.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Histoire de M. Jabot" – created 1831, first published 1833. It features the adventures of a middle class dandy who attempts to enter contemporary Upper class.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Monsieur Crépin" – first published in 1837. It features the adventures of a father who employs a series of tutors for his children and falls prey to their eccentricities.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Histoire de M. Vieux Bois" – created 1827, first published 1837. The above-mentioned story.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Monsieur Pencil" – created 1831, first published 1840. An escalating series of events beginning with an artist losing his sketch to the blowing wind and almost resulting in a global war.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Histoire d'Albert" – first published in 1845. The adventures of an inexperienced young man in search of a career. After many attempts he ends up as a journalist in support of radical ideas. The panels show the erection of barricades and crowds singing La Marseillaise.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Histoire de Monsieur Cryptogame" – first published in 1845. The story of a lepidopterist who goes to great lengths to replace his current lover with a more suitable one.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Le Docteur Festus" (or "Voyages et aventures du Docteur Festus") – created 1831, first published 1846. A scientist wanders the world, offering his assistance. He is blissfully unaware that disaster marks his path.

paragraph: All seven are considered satirical views of 19th century society and proved popular at the time. In 1842 Rodolphe published "Essais d'autographie". On 14 September 1842 the "Histoire de M. Vieux Bois" was first introduced to a United States audience as "The Adventures of Mr. Obadiah Oldbuck". It was published in comic book form as a supplement to that day's edition of "Brother Jonathan", a New York City newspaper published by author John Neal (25 August 1793 – 20 June 1876). It has come to be considered the first American comic book and, according to several Robert Beerbohm articles published in "Comic Art" and the "Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide", the inspiration for an entire U.S. genre of nineteenth-century graphic novel.

paragraph: The University Press of Mississippi published an English translation of his full-length stories as well as previously unpublished works in 2007.

paragraph: Rodolphe is considered alternatively the father or at least an important precursor to the modern art form of comics. He is also considered to be an influence to younger comic artists such as Wilhelm Busch (15 April 1832 – 9 January 1908), creator of "Max and Moritz".

paragraph: Section::::Child art.

paragraph: Töpffer wrote two chapters on child art and child creativity in his book (1848), which was published after his death. He wrote that children often displayed greater creativity than trained artists, whose creativity was often overshadowed by their technical skill.

paragraph: Sponsianus

paragraph: Sponsianus is believed to have been a Roman usurper, who attempted to seize the throne during the 240s, likely during the rule of Philip the Arab. The sole evidence for his existence is a single "aureus" of dubious quality.

paragraph: Section::::Evidence.

paragraph: The sole evidence found for his existence was from a single "aureus", found in 1713 in Transylvania, among coins bearing the inscription of Philip the Arab and Gordian III, bearing the inscription of Sponsianus. The numismatist Henry Cohen believed them to be "very poor quality modern forgeries". However, according to the ancient numismatist Wayne Sayles, as the usurpers and emperors of the time were often ephemeral, the lack of coins should not be seen as evidence that Sponsianus did not actually exist. The problems with the "aureus" are twofold: firstly, the obverse (face) side of the coin is "barbaric and strange" according to the findings of the Roman Imperial Coinage, and the reverse (tail) side of the coin appears to be a copy of a Republican denarius struck in 135 BC.

paragraph: Section::::History.

paragraph: Based upon the location of the "aureus", if it is legitimate, it would place Sponsianus' ruling period sometime in the 240s. It is believed that this would have taken place entirely within the rule of Philip the Arab (244-249 AD). Based upon the location of his "aureus", he is believed to have staged his revolt in Pannonia.

paragraph: Upon his return to Poland he joined the Polish Army, where he served under Konstanty Ostrogski. Together with his fellow starosta of Cherkassy, he organized several units out of local Zaporozhian Cossacks and lead them to various wars against the Ottoman Empire and Crimean Khanate. He gained much fame as one of the last knights and a hero who reached Bilhorod in 1516 and Ochakov in 1528. And although never awarded the title of hetman, he is sometimes treated as the first hetman of the Ukrainian Cossacks. He died in Kraków in 1531.
