paragraph: Sampson Lloyd (iron manufacturer)

paragraph: Sampson Lloyd (1664–1724) was an iron manufacturer in Birmingham, then a small town in the county of Warwickshire, England, and was the founder of the Lloyd family of Birmingham, iron-founders and bankers, which went on to found Lloyds Bank, today one of the largest banks in the United Kingdom.

paragraph: Section::::Origins.

paragraph: He was the younger son of Charles Lloyd (1637–1698) of Dolobran in Montgomeryshire (now Powys), where the Lloyd family had been established gentry for many centuries. Sampson's mother was his father's first wife Elizabeth Lort (1633–1685), daughter of Sampson Lort (died before 1670) of East Moor in Pembrokeshire, one of the three sons of Henry Lort of Stackpole Court in Pembrokeshire, Sheriff of Pembrokeshire in 1619, of whom the eldest was Sir Roger Lort, 1st Baronet (died 1664), created a baronet in 1662.

paragraph: Sampson was born in 1664 "at Anne Eccleston's in Welshpool", the rented house where his parents had been held for the previous two years under house arrest, having been transferred from the Welshpool jail, and where they would remain for the next eight years, having as Quakers refused to take the Oath of Allegiance to King Charles II (1660–1685) as required by the Quaker Act of 1662, the swearing of oaths being forbidden by the Quaker religion.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: He adhered to the Quaker faith which had been adopted by his father and aged 34 in the year 1698, the year of his father's death, leaving his elder brother Charles Lloyd (1662–1747), who had inherited Dolobran, he deserted the "uncharitableness of his native Wales" and moved about 62 miles south-east of Dolobran to the town of Birmingham in Warwickshire (home of his brother-in-law John Pemberton), a town especially tolerant of Quakers and religious dissent. There he could escape the harassing and ruthless legal penalties of the Conventicles Act and Five Mile Act, for as Birmingham was not a borough, dissenting preachers were not barred from preaching there. He might have been tempted to follow thousands of other Welsh dissenters in emigrating to the new American colony of Pennsylvania, which course had been chosen by his uncle Thomas Lloyd (1640–1694) a quaker and preacher who assisted William Penn in the establishment of that colony, which he served as Deputy-Governor and President from 1684 to 1693.

paragraph: However, Birmingham had other attractions than religious toleration to Sampson. It was a place where due to the absence of guilds controlling trade and industry, it was easy to establish a business or factory. There he "soon found scope for his energies and capital" and became an ironmaster and established a slitting mill at the botton of Bradford Street, Birmingham, on the bank of the River Rea, where by use of water power, sheet iron was cut-up to form nails. Slitting mills were especially plentiful on the River Stour between Stourbridge (where Sampson's father-in-law Ambrose Crowley operated) and Stourport. He also started business as an iron merchant in Edgbaston Street, Birmingham, in which he lived at number 56. He had a profitable career in the firm he founded called "Sampson Lloyd and Sons".

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Description of Lloyd's mills.

paragraph: In a map of Birmingham dated 1731, 7 years after Samuel's death, Lloyd's slitting and corn mills are shown with access from Digbeth by Lower Mill Lane. A later map dated 1751 shows the slitting-mill with a mill pool and a large garden. A description of the slitting mill survives in a letter dated 31 July 1755 written by visitors from London to the Pembertons, Lloyd cousins:

paragraph: Section::::Marriage and children.

paragraph: He married twice. His first wife was Elizabeth Good (died 1692), by whom he had four daughters. After her death, he remarried in 1695 to Mary Crowley (born 1677), whose sister Sarah Crowley had married his elder brother Charles Lloyd (1662–1747) of Dolobran. Mary and Sarah were daughters of Ambrose Crowley, a Quaker Blacksmith in Stourbridge, Worcestershire (near Birmingham) and Sheriff of London. The brother of the two sisters was Sir Ambrose Crowley (1658–1713), an ironmonger, whose daughter Elizabeth Crowley was the wife of John St John, 11th Baron St John of Bletso (died 1757). During the time of Sir Ambrose III's management, the Crowley Iron Works at Winlaton, Winlaton Mill, and at Swalwell, all in County Durham were probably Europe's biggest industrial complex. Sir Ambrose lent large sums to the government which appointed him a founding director of the South Sea Company. By his second wife Mary Crowley he had four sons and two daughters including:

In 1728 he acquired further, from Thomas, Bishop of Bangor, and in partnership with his younger brother Sampson Lloyd, a lease of the Forge or Blademill in Saultley, Aston, being described in the lease as "ironmongers". He inherited his father's residence at 56 Edgbaston Street, Birmingham, but later moved to Bingley House on Broad Street (later demolished to build the Bingley Hall, itself demolished and replaced by the present International Convention Centre and Symphony Hall. He married Sarah Careless, daughter of Benjamin Careless, by whom he had children including Charles Lloyd (1724–1760) and Benjamin Lloyd (1727–1804). His heir to his industrial enterprises was his younger brother Sampson Lloyd.

paragraph: Oliver Holden

paragraph: Oliver Holden (September 18, 1765 – September 4, 1844) was an American composer and compiler of hymns.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: He was born in Shirley, Massachusetts. During the American Revolutionary War, he was a marine for a year (1782-1783) on the USS Deane, which returned to Boston with at least one British prize while he was in the crew. For his service, he received an annual pension. A carpenter by trade, in 1786 he moved to Charlestown, Massachusetts, to help rebuild it after the war. A carpenter and real estate dealer in his professional life, he also organized many music schools, and served as legislator and pastor.

paragraph: He was a Baptist. In 1791 he joined the First Baptist Church in Boston and became leader of the choir. In 1801, he and some others started the First Baptist Church in Charlestown. He was in a group that left that church in 1809, due to what they perceived as lax discipline, and started a Second Baptist Church in Charlestown.

paragraph: He entered King Solomon's Lodge as a freemason in 1795, and was an active member for ten years. He was in the Massachusetts House of Representatives on behalf of his town in 1818, 1825, 1826, and 1828 to 1833. His mansion, which he built around 1800, later became the Oliver Holden School, a kindergarten of Boston.

paragraph: He is buried at the Phipps Street Burying Ground in Charlestown, Massachusetts.

paragraph: Section::::Books.

paragraph: While working as a carpenter, Holden published "The American Harmony" (1793), a book of sacred music, mostly original, arranged in three and four parts. Soon afterward followed "Union Harmony, or a Universal Collection of Sacred Music" (1793 & 1801) and "The Massachusetts Compiler" (1795). He wrote the last-named work with Hans Gram and Samuel Holyoke. He edited "The Worcester Collection of Sacred Harmony" (1797), a sixth edition, altered, revised, and corrected, with an appendix containing new psalm-tunes; it was printed upon movable types that had been procured from England in 1786, by Isaiah Thomas, of Worcester, and is the oldest music book that was thus printed.

paragraph: When George Washington visited Boston in 1789, Holden wrote the lyrics and score of an ode, and trained the choir which sang the music that greeted Washington at the Old State House. This chorus was performed again by the Stoughton Musical Society in their concerts at the Chicago World's Exposition in 1893 His popular tune "Coronation," to Edward Perronet's hymn "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name", is said to be the earliest American hymn tune still in general use. Also of note is his hymn "Confidence."

DJ was working as a co-host on the morning show at Little Rock NBC affiliate television station KARK channel 4, when he was called by the Washington Redskins to join the team during their 2015 pre-season camp. Since he was cut before the regular season began, Williams returned to KARK. Williams has spearheaded "D.J.'s Day of Action" to build awareness and raise funds for Women & Children First, a Little Rock charity that helped Williams' family break the cycle of domestic violence when he was a child.

paragraph: Sir William Portman, 6th Baronet

paragraph: Sir William Portman, 6th Baronet (5 September 1643 – 18 March 1690) FRS was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons between 1661 and 1690.

paragraph: Portman was the son of Sir William Portman, 5th Baronet and his wife Anne Colles, daughter of John Colles. He inherited the baronetcy on the death of his father in 1646.

paragraph: In 1661, Portman was elected Member of Parliament for Taunton for the Cavalier Parliament and held the seat until 1679. In 1679 he was elected MP for Somerset where he sat until 1685. He was then elected MP for Taunton again, and held the seat until his death in 1690.

paragraph: Portman married three times but died without issue and the baronetcy became extinct.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: He was the eldest son of Sir William Portman, 5th Baronet (1610–1648) of Orchard Portman, by Anna, daughter and coheiress of John Colles of Barton. The father was returned for Taunton to both the Short and Long parliaments of 1640, but was disabled, as a royalist, to sit on 5 February 1644. On his death in 1648, William succeeded him as sixth baronet.

paragraph: He matriculated at All Souls' College, Oxford, 26 April 1659, and at the Restoration of 1660 was made a Knight of the Bath. He represented Taunton in parliament from 1661 until 1679, and from 1685 till his death. From 1679 to 1681 he sat for the county of Somerset. Apart from Sir Edward Seymour, he was accounted as influential a tory as any in the west of England.

paragraph: He was a strong ‘abhorrer’ during the exclusion crisis in Charles II's reign, and while attending parliament in May 1685 he received a mysterious warning of the Duke of Monmouth's impending insurrection in the west. He directed the search of post-coaches in the neighbourhood of Taunton, in the hope of intercepting treasonable correspondence, and took an active part in investigating the causes of disaffection, and later on in organising the militia. After the battle of Sedgmoor (6 July 1685) Portman, with the Somerset militia, formed a chain of posts from Poole to the northern extremity of Dorset, with a view to preventing Monmouth's escape. On 8 July he and Lord Lumley captured the fugitive Duke near Ringwood in the New Forest, and did not trust him out of their sight until he was delivered safe at Whitehall.

paragraph: In November 1688 Portman joined the Prince of Orange at Exeter with a large following. William is said to have intended him for high promotion, but he died at his seat of Orchard Portman, near Taunton, on 20 March 1690. Sir William was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society on 28 December 1664.

paragraph: Section::::Family and heirs.

paragraph: He married thrice, but had no issue. He married firstly in 1661, Elizabeth, daughter and coheiress of Sir John Cutler, 1st Baronet by his first wife; secondly in 1674, Elizabeth, the daughter and coheiress of Thomas Southcote of Buckland Tout Saints, Devon and thirdly in 1682, Mary, the daughter and heiress of Sir John Holman, 1st Baronet of Banbury, Oxfordshire.

paragraph: He left his valuable estate to his first cousin Henry Seymour (d. 1728), the 5th son of his aunt Anne Portman (d.1695) and her husband Sir Edward Seymour, 3rd Baronet (d.1688). Henry Seymour assumed the name and arms of Portman, and although twice married, left no male progeny. Under Sir William's will his next heir was another cousin, William Berkeley (d.1737) of Pylle, Somerset, great-grandson of his other aunt, Joan Portman, sister of Anne Portman (d.1695). Joan had married Sir George Speke of Whitelackington, Somerset, and their daughter Philippa Speke became the wife of Edward Berkeley (d.1669) of Pylle, 4th in descent in a junior line from Richard Berkeley (d.1514) of Stoke Gifford, Gloucestershire, which manor had been granted in 1337 by Maurice de Berkeley, 2nd Baron Berkeley(1271-1326) to his second son Maurice de Berkeley (d.1347). Philippa's son was Edward Berkeley (d.1707) MP, of Pylle, who married Elizabeth Ryves, daughter of John Ryves of Ranston, Dorset. Their second son was William Berkeley (d.1737) of Pylle (who was heir to his elder brother Maurice Berkeley (d.1717) MP of Pylle) who became in 1728 the second heir of Sir William Portman, 6th Baronet, who like his first heir Henry Seymour, changed his surname to Portman and also assumed the arms of Portman which he quartered with his paternal arms of Berkeley of Stoke Gifford, placing the Portman arms in the 1st and 4th quarters of greatest honour. His grandson Henry William Portman gave his name to Portman Square in London (begun in 1764), and was grandfather of Edward Berkeley Portman, 1st Viscount Portman (1799-1888). Bryanston Square is named after Bryanston, the seat and estate purchased by Sir William in Dorset shortly before his death.

paragraph: Irene Vorrink (7 January 1918 – 21 August 1996) was a Dutch politician of the Labour Party (PvdA).

paragraph: She was born on 7 January 1918 in The Hague as the daughter of the Dutch socialist leader Koos Vorrink. She studied law until 1943 and held several legal functions, before she became a member of the Senate for the PvdA in 1969.

paragraph: In 1973 she became Minister of Health in the cabinet Den Uyl. A major issue was the legislation concerning drugs, which she achieved in 1976 together with Minister of Justice, Dries van Agt. The Netherlands has since then employed a distinction between hard and soft drugs.

paragraph: She also took the leading role in attempting to establish a legal basis for the fluoridation of drinking water. Though fluoridation to prevent tooth decay had been occurring in many areas across the Netherlands for years, the Supreme Court ruled in 1973 that it should be specifically provided for in the Water Supply law. Her bill to do so did not find support in the House of Representatives outside her own party, and was dropped.

paragraph: From 1978 until 1979 Vorrink was an alderman in the city of Amsterdam.

paragraph: Sobekhotep VIII

paragraph: Sekhemre Seusertawy Sobekhotep VIII was possibly the third king of the 16th Dynasty of Egypt reigning over the Theban region in Upper Egypt during the Second Intermediate Period. Alternatively, he may be a ruler of the 13th or 17th Dynasty. If he was a king of the 16th Dynasty, Sobekhotep VIII would be credited 16 years of reign by the Turin canon, starting c. 1650 BC, at the time of the Hyksos invasion of Egypt.

paragraph: Section::::Chronological position.

paragraph: The 2nd line of the 11th column of the Turin canon reads "Sekhem[...]re" and refers, according to Egyptologists Kim Ryholt and Darrell Baker, to Sekhemre Seusertawy, which is Sobekhotep VIII's nomen. If this identification is correct, then Sobekhotep VIII reigned for 16 years as the third king of the 16th Dynasty. This would make him the direct successor of Djehuti and the predecessor to Neferhotep III, although his relation to both of these kings remains unknown. In his reconstruction of the chronology of the Second Intermediate Period, Ryholt proposes that Sobekhotep VIII reigned from 1645 BC until 1629 BC, shortly after the Hyksos 15th Dynasty took over the Nile Delta and the city of Memphis, thereby precipitating the collapse of the 13th Dynasty.

paragraph: In older studies by Egyptologists Jürgen von Beckerath and Labib Habachi, Sobekhotep VIII was considered to be a king of the 13th Dynasty.

paragraph: Section::::Attestation.

paragraph: The only contemporary attestation of Sobekhotep VIII is a stela found inside the third pylon at Karnak. This stela was used as construction material to fill the pylon during Amenhotep III's extensive works at the site. The stela is dated to the epagomenal, or final five days, of Sobekhotep VIII's fourth regnal year, and describes his attitude at a temple, probably that of Karnak, during a massive Nile flood:

paragraph: According to Egyptologist John Baines, who studied the stela in detail, by coming to the temple as it was flooded, the king reenacted the Egyptian story of the creation of the world in imitating the actions of the creator god Amun-Ra, to which the stela iconography closely associates the king, ordering the waters to recede from around the primordial mount.

paragraph: Lady Baldwin

paragraph: Charles B. "Lady" Baldwin (April 8, 1859 – March 7, 1937) was an American left-handed pitcher. He played six seasons in Major League Baseball with the Milwaukee Brewers (1884), Detroit Wolverines (1885–1888), Brooklyn Bridegrooms (1890), and Buffalo Bisons (1890).

paragraph: Baldwin had his best season in 1886 when he compiled a 42–13 record and a 2.24 earned run average (ERA), threw 55 complete games, and led the National League with 323 strikeouts. Baldwin's 42 wins in 1886 set the major league record for a left-handed pitcher and remains the second highest single season total by a southpaw. Baldwin also pitched five complete games for a 4–1 record and a 1.50 ERA in the 1887 World Series. Arm troubles cut short Baldwin's major league career at age 31.

paragraph: Section::::Early years.

paragraph: Baldwin was born in 1859 in Oramel, Allegany County, New York, approximately 60 miles southeast of Buffalo. His father, Samuel Baldwin, was a farmer. As a boy, he moved with his family to Barry County in western Michigan, first to Johnstown Township and then to Hastings.

paragraph: Baldwin was introduced to baseball in Hastings and began his pitching career for the Hastings team. His battery-mate on the Hastings team was Deacon McGuire, with whom he would later play as a member of the Detroit Wolverines.

paragraph: Section::::Professional baseball career.:Grand Rapids.

paragraph: Baldwin began his professional baseball career in 1883 playing for the Grand Rapids, Michigan, team in the Northwestern League.

paragraph: Section::::Professional baseball career.:Milwaukee Brewers.

paragraph: In 1884, at age 25, Baldwin played for the Milwaukee Brewers of the Northwestern League. He compiled a 9-10 record in 22 games in the Northwestern League despite having an impressive 1.17 earned run average (ERA). The Northwestern Association disbanded during the 1884 season, and the Brewers became part of the Union Association, considered a major league, toward the end of the season. Baldwin made his major league debut with the Brewers on September 30, 1884. He compiled a 1-1 record and 2.65 ERA in two games in the Union Association.

paragraph: In 1885, the Brewers became members of the Western Association. Baldwin pitched impressively for the Brewers in 1885, compiling an 11-4 record and a 0.68 ERA in 16 games.

paragraph: Section::::Professional baseball career.:Nickname.

paragraph: Baldwin was given the nickname "Lady" because of his "quiet ways" and his refusal to swear or to come into contact with either tobacco or liquor.

paragraph: Section::::Professional baseball career.:Detroit Wolverines.

paragraph: During the 1885 season, Baldwin was acquired by the Detroit Wolverines of the National League. He appeared in 21 games for Detroit in 1885 and, despite an impressive 1.86 ERA, managed only an 11-9 record for a team that finished in sixth place with a 41-67 record. Baldwin led the National League in walks plus hits per inning pitched (0.92) and in strikeouts per nine innings pitched (6.775), and he was the only pitcher on the 1885 Detroit team to compile a winning record.

paragraph: In 1886, the Wolverines acquired "The Big Four" (Dan Brouthers, Deacon White, Hardy Richardson, and Jack Rowe) from Buffalo and improved to second place and an 87-36 record. Baldwin accounted for nearly half of Detroit's victories in 1886. He compiled a record of 42–13 with a 2.24 ERA in 487 innings pitched, striking out 323 of 1,936 batters faced. Baldwin also completed 55 of 56 games, seven of which were via shutout. One of Baldwin's complete games in 1886 was a 3-0, 14-inning victory over the Philadelphia Phillies. Another was a one-hitter against Washington in June 1886 in which he struck out 13 batters.

paragraph: Baldwin's 42 wins in 1886 set a major league record for a left-handed pitcher and remains the second highest single season total by a southpaw. Baldwin was also "reputed to be the first southpaw hurler to master the curve."

paragraph: In 1887, the Wolverines won the National League pennant and the 1887 World Series. However, a shoulder injury sidelined Baldwin during the season, and he was "sent home without pay" in late July. Baldwin rejoined the Wolverines in August, and after resting his arm, won seven of his last eight games. Baldwin appeared in only 24 games in 1887 (down from 56 in 1886) and compiled a 13-10 record and a 3.84 ERA. The heaviest load for the 1887 team was handled by Charlie Getzien who compiled a 29-13 record. However, in the World Series, Baldwin pitched five complete games for a 4–1 record and a 1.50 ERA.

paragraph: Baldwin was also a strong hitting pitcher. During Detroit's 1887 championship year, Baldwin compiled a respectable .271 batting average and a .354 on-base percentage.

paragraph: In 1888, Baldwin was able to play in only six games. According to some sources, his pitching arm was "dead" from overwork in the three prior seasons. He compiled a 3-3 record in 1888, but saw his ERA balloon to 5.43—nearly 300% higher than his ERA of 1.86 just three years earlier.

paragraph: Ned Hanlon, who played with Baldwin in Detroit, later said of Baldwin: "I will not hesitate in saying that 'Lady' Baldwin was the best left-handed pitcher of his day and one of the best that ever stood in the box. He had wonderful command, speed and curves, and knew how to work the batters."

paragraph: Section::::Professional baseball career.:Brooklyn and Buffalo.

paragraph: Baldwin attempted a comeback in 1890. He split the 1890 season between the Brooklyn Bridegrooms of the National League and the Buffalo Bisons of the Players' League. He compiled a 3-5 record and 4.78 ERA in nine games for the two teams. He appeared in his final major league game on June 26, 1890, and was released by Buffalo in early July 1890.

paragraph: Section::::Family and later years.

paragraph: By 1890, Baldwin had returned to his hometown of Hastings, Michigan, and taken up farming. At the time of the 1900 Census, Baldwin was living in Hastings with his wife Dora E. Baldwin. He remained in Hastings for the remainder of his life and became a successful orchard owner and farmer. In 1910, he was seriously injured when he fell from a hay mow, breaking his collarbone. The injury deprived Baldwin of the full use of his right arm, and he underwent surgery at the University of Michigan Hospital to correct the problem. In 1914, he was again seriously injured after falling from a ladder and was unable to walk for months. He later went into the real estate business in Hastings.

paragraph: Baldwin died in 1937 after an illness of six months at age 77. He was buried in Riverside Cemetery in Hastings.

paragraph: Bruno Caruso

paragraph: Bruno Caruso (; Palermo, 8 August 1927 – Rome, 4 November 2018) was an influential Sicilian artist, graphic designer and writer who spent much of his adult life working in Rome.

paragraph: Caruso's work focused on the moral, political and ethical flaws of the 20th Century. He fought against influence of Sicilian Mafia in Italian politics, protested against the Vietnam War, campaigned against use of straitjackets in psychiatric wards, and championed the rights of Sicilian farmers in their battle for land ownership in the aftermath of World War II.

paragraph: Over the course of his career he created more than 25 collections of drawings, founded celebrated Sicilian cultural magazines, "Sicilia" and "Ciclope", and illustrated works by Machiavelli, Kafka, Leonardo Sciascia, Giovanni Arpino and Giuseppe Ungaretti amongst many others.

paragraph: Caruso's work has ended up in the collections of notable 20th Century patrons of the arts, including Helena Rubenstein, Arthur Jeffress and Irene Brin. In 1987 he was awarded an honorary degree from the University of Palermo, and in 2001 he received the Gold Medal of Merit for Culture and Art from the President of Italy. He was a member of the prestigious Accademia di San Luca.

paragraph: Section::::Life and works.

paragraph: Section::::Life and works.:Early life and education (1927-1948).

paragraph: Bruno Caruso was born on August 8, 1927 to Giuseppe Caruso and Maria Cucco, as a scorching Sirocco wind blew through the streets of Palermo. As a child he learned to draw under the tutelage of his father, mainly copying the work of classical masters like Leonardo Da Vinci, Pisanello and Andrea Mantegna. His first collection of drawings was completed at age 5 (1931–32); a bestiary featuring 'Il Cane' (1932), a meticulously crafted drawing of a dog, textured by needlepoint (see image).

paragraph: Caruso's early influences were the famous Orto botanico di Palermo and Monreale Cathedral, but as the Second Italo-Ethiopian War, Spanish Civil War and eventually World War II ignited, he turned his attention to depicting the horror and isolation of war. At age 19 he left Italy for the second time to visit Munich and the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, where he was profoundly affected by the work of Gustav Klimt and George Grosz.

paragraph: Immediately after the end of World War II, Caruso signed up to study Law at the University of Palermo. He earned a living by writing dissertations for exchange students, and claimed to have submitted over 100 successful papers during his time at the university. Having completed his own Law degree, he began a second degree in Classics, but dropped out following a dispute over the faculty's decision to award an honorary degree to a notorious (but unnamed) Sicilian-American celebrity.

paragraph: In 1948 Caruso took his first trip to Prague where, confronted by the Nazi atrocities of World War II, he completed his first official collection entitled "Deutschland über alles", after George Grosz.

paragraph: Section::::Life and works.:Artistic Director, Editor and Graphic Designer.

paragraph: In 1953 Caruso received a commission from the Sicilian Government to create "Sicilia", a magazine series celebrating Sicilian art and culture. As Artistic Director, Caruso was charged with setting up one of the first modern printing presses in Sicily, and forging strong relationships with artists, intellectuals and photographers from around the world, including Richard Avedon, Herbert List and Brassai. In 1974 the magazine created a special edition in honour of Caruso, featuring a bespoke cover and 117 of his drawings.

paragraph: The early success of "Sicilia" caught the eye of Irene Brin and Gaspero del Corso, founders of the "Galleria dell'Obelisco" in Rome, a famous hub for Italy's artistic elite. Caruso became the director of the gallery's publishing arm and struck up close friendships with poets De Liberto, Giuseppe Ungaretti and Leonardo Sinisgalli, and painters Ben Shahn, Fabrizio Clerici, Colombotto Rosso and Renzo Vespignani.

paragraph: He also published the first books on The Triumph of Death (Palermo), Italian sculptor Giacomo Serpotta and German photographer Wilhelm von Gloeden.

paragraph: Section::::Life and works.:Breakthrough (1952-1956).

paragraph: Caruso's association with the "Galleria dell'Obelisco" led to his first major solo show in 1953, followed by his first monograph in 1954, curated by Leonardo Sinisgalli. The collection made Caruso's name internationally, featuring what Sinisgalli labelled ""a tiny universe of jugglers, sleep-walkers, acrobats, time-wasters, street urchins and craftsmen darting around cheerfully like fish caught in the net of a tragic, silent and unstable world"",

paragraph: He had his first solo show in London at the Arthur Jeffress Gallery in 1955, and saw his work appear in the collections of celebrated patrons of the arts across the United States like Helena Rubenstein, Larry Aldrich, Richard Avedon, Walter Bareiss, Eric Estorick, Joan Whitney Payson, Stanley J. Seeger and John Hay Whitney.

paragraph: Section::::Life and works.:Political Drawings (1948 - 1973).

paragraph: Back in Sicily, Caruso struck up a friendship with Girolamo Li Causi, leader of the Italian Communist Party, and began actively supporting the local peasant revolts. He completed a collection on the Portella della Ginestra massacre, and campaigned actively for the cultural emancipation of Sicily against the rise of the Mafia. His fight against the endemic corruption in Italian politics climaxed in the 1970s when he was fighting three concurrent legal cases against Michele Sindona, Giovanni Gioia and Vito Ciancimino.

paragraph: Throughout the 1950s he worked at Palermo's Psychiatric Hospital (the "Real Casa dei Matti di Palermo"), producing a damning series of studies highlighting the use of medieval curing techniques and abject conditions in the wards, contributing to a major overhaul of the system. He returned to this theme throughout his career in collections like "Manicomio" (1969) and "La Real Casa dei Matti" (1975).

paragraph: Over the following years Caruso travelled extensively to Iran, India, Thailand and Japan, studying Persian calligraphy and completing a series of drawings on dictatorships, famine, and the threat of nuclear warfare. These drawings formed part of four collections; "Il Pugno di ferro / The Iron Fist" (1962); "Pace in terra / Peace on Earth" (1963); "Totum procedit ex amore" (1964); and "La Tigre di carta / The Paper Tiger" (1964).

paragraph: He returned to the United States in the month of the Kennedy assassination, guest of Jack Levine, Tennessee Williams and Ben Shahn. On this trip he completed commissions for Time, Fortune and Life magazines and, inspired by a meeting with Malcolm X, began work on "Americana" (1968) in which he championed the Civil Rights Movement and stood against the Vietnam War.

paragraph: The fight against the Vietnam War became one of Caruso's most active political stands. He was invited to Hanoi by Phạm Văn Đồng, the Prime Minister of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, and edited four books in support of their plight, including "Vietnam: Biographia e documenti sull'aggressione imperialistica contro il popolo Vietnamita" (1972). In 1972 he illustrated the last testament of Ho Chi Minh.

paragraph: Section::::Life and works.:Death (2018).

paragraph: Bruno Caruso died on 4 November 2018 at the "Regina Margherita" hospice in Rome. He was 91 years old. Days before his death his son, Roberto Caruso, gave him a pencil and paper and, despite having refused to work for almost two years, he completed one final drawing; a melted, disfigured face (see image).

paragraph: Olga Brandon

paragraph: Olga Brandon (1863–1906) was an Australian born stage actress who specialized in comedy, melodrama and drama. She was born Olga Lazarrevich to Spiro Lazarrevich a Croation and Danish Victoria Schinkle. She had three brothers and two sisters, Anna and Adrianna. Olga and her family moved to Geelong in 1865. Her father accidentally drowned in 1867 in Corio Bay. Her mother placed Olga and her siblings in orphanages called Sacred Heart and St. Augustines. Olga's mother worked in New Zealand before returning to Australia in 1873. Victoria married an American seafarer Albert Wagner in 1875 and the entire family reunited and emigrated to Los Angeles in America. At 14 in 1878 Olga married a 32 year old man named Valentine Wolfenstein. The marriage didn't last and they separated 3 months later. In 1880 she married a bookkeeper Herman Brandenstein, 25, and moved with him to New York in 1884. She altered part of her married name and professionally referred to herself as Olga Brandon. In New York she became popular with society and attracted admirers and lovers. She and Brandenstein separated in 1886 and Olga left for England. Olga settled in England achieving fame and fortune finally performing at London's Shaftesbury Theatre in 1890. She was one of the highest paid actresses of the time and was received in comedy and drama. She enjoyed success throughout the 1890s but her health gradually deteriorated from tuberculosis forcing her to retire by 1901. She survived until 1906 when the tuberculosis claimed her life.

paragraph: Adriaan van den Spiegel

paragraph: Adriaan van den Spiegel (or Spieghel), name sometimes written as Adrianus Spigelius, (1578 – 7 April 1625) was a Flemish anatomist born in Brussels. For much of his career he practiced medicine in Padua, and is considered one of the great physicians associated with the city. At Padua he studied anatomy under Girolamo Fabrici.

paragraph: Section::::Work.

paragraph: His best written work on anatomy is "De humani corporis fabrica libri X tabulis aere icisis exornati", published posthumously in 1627. He borrowed the title from "De humani corporis fabrica", written by his fellow countryman, Vesalius, who had also studied in Padua. The book was intended as an update in medical thinking (a century later) about anatomy. In his 1624 treatise "De semitertiana libri quatuor", he gave the first comprehensive description of malaria.

paragraph: His name is given to the Spiegelian line (Linea semilunaris) and the Spiegelian fascia, which refers either to the combined aponeuroses of the external abdominal oblique muscle, the internal abdominal oblique muscle and transversus abdominis muscle, or just the aponeurosis of the transversus abdominis. An uncommon hernia of the Spiegelian fascia that he first described is called a "Spigelian hernia".

paragraph: The caudate lobe of the liver is also known as Spiegel's lobe.

paragraph: Spiegel also did work as a botanist. The genus "Spigelia" (containing about 60 species) is named after him. Traditionally, the rhizome and roots of "Spigelia marilandica" were used as a cure for intestinal parasites.
