paragraph: Irene Worth

paragraph: Irene Worth, CBE (June 23, 1916March 9, 2002) was an American stage and screen actress who became one of the leading stars of the British and American theatre. She pronounced her given name with three syllables: "I-REE-nee".

paragraph: Worth made her Broadway debut in 1943, joined the Old Vic company in 1951 and the RSC in 1962. She won the BAFTA Award for Best British Actress for the 1958 film "Orders to Kill". Her other film appearances included "Nicholas and Alexandra" (1971) and "Deathtrap" (1982) A three-time Tony Award winner, she won the Tony Award for Best Actress in a Play for "Tiny Alice" in 1965 and "Sweet Bird of Youth" in 1976, and won the 1991 Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Play for "Lost in Yonkers", a role she reprised in the 1993 film version. One of her final stage performances was opposite Paul Scofield in the 2001 production of "I Take Your Hand in Mine" at the Almeida Theatre in London.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Harriet Elizabeth Abrams was born in Fairbury, Nebraska to a Mennonite family. Her parents, Agnes Thiessen and Henry Abrams, were educators. They moved from Nebraska to California in 1920. She was educated at Newport Harbor High School, Newport Beach, California, Santa Ana Junior College, Santa Ana, California and UCLA.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Shakespeare and the West End.

paragraph: She joined the Old Vic company in 1951, worked with Tyrone Guthrie and there played Desdemona, Helena in "A Midsummer Night's Dream", Portia in "The Merchant of Venice" and her first Lady Macbeth. The company went off to South Africa with Worth as one of the leading ladies.

paragraph: In 1953, she joined the fledgling Shakespeare Festival in Stratford, Ontario for its inaugural season. There she was the principal leading lady, performing under an enormous tent with Alec Guinness in "All's Well That Ends Well" and "Richard III". "Binkie" Beaumont brought her back to London in N. C. Hunter's "Chekhovian" drama, "A Day by the Sea", with a cast that included John Gielgud and Ralph Richardson. She joined the Midland Theatre Company in Coventry for Ugo Betti's "The Queen and the Rebels". Her transformation from "a rejected slut cowering at her lover's feet into a redemption of regal poise" ensured a transfer to London, where Kenneth Tynan wrote of her technique: "It is grandiose, heartfelt, marvellously controlled, clear as crystal and totally unmoving."

paragraph: In the 1950s, Worth demonstrated her exceptional versatility by playing in the farce "Hotel Paradiso" in London with Alec Guinness, high tragedy in the title role of Schiller's "Mary Stuart", co-starring Eva Le Gallienne; and on Broadway and Shakespearean comedy in "As You Like It" at Stratford, Ontario. In Ivor Brown's play "William's Other Anne" she played Shakespeare's first girlfriend Anne Whateley opposite John Gregson as Shakespeare. She also made a number of well-regarded appearances in British films of the period, most notably her powerful performance as a French Resistance agent in Anthony Asquith's 1958 wartime espionage drama "Orders to Kill", which earned her the BAFTA award for Best Supporting Actress.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:The RSC, the National Theatre and Greenwich.

paragraph: In 1962, she joined the Royal Shakespeare Company at the Aldwych Theatre, and it was there that she gave some of her greatest performances. She was Goneril to Paul Scofield's Lear in Peter Brook's acclaimed "King Lear", the first of many collaborations with Brook. She recreated her implacable Goneril in the stark, black-and-white film version of this production. She repeated her Lady Macbeth and appeared again for Brook in Friedrich Dürrenmatt's "The Physicists". Playing an asylum superintendent, she showed the darker side of her acting. She then went to New York in 1965 for the opening of Edward Albee's enigmatic "Tiny Alice", in which she co-starred with John Gielgud and which won her the first of her three Tony Awards.

paragraph: She returned to the RSC at the Aldwych to repeat her role. She worked with Peter Brook in Paris and also toured Iran with "Orghast", Brook's attempt to develop an international theatre language. She joined the National Theatre at the Old Vic in 1968 to play Jocasta in Peter Brook's production of Seneca's "Oedipus", again opposite Gielgud. She was proud to have been in Noël Coward's last play "Suite in Three Keys", in which he himself made his last appearance on stage. In 1974 she appeared in three thematically-linked plays at the Greenwich Theatre directed by Jonathan Miller under the umbrella title of Family Romances and using the same actors for each play. Worth took the roles of Gertrude in "Hamlet", Madame Arkadina in Chekhov's "The Seagull", and Mrs Alving in Ibsen's "Ghosts".

paragraph: Section::::Career.:America.

paragraph: Worth spent most of the 1970s in North America. She was an acclaimed Hedda Gabler at Stratford, Ontario, a role she considered one of her most satisfying achievements and which prompted Walter Kerr to write, in "The New York Times", "Miss Worth is just possibly the best actress in the world."

paragraph: She played Princess Kosmonopolis in Tennessee Williams's "Sweet Bird of Youth" opposite Christopher Walken, which brought her a second Tony Award. She was Madame Ranevskaya in "The Cherry Orchard", for which she received another Tony nomination and which featured Raúl Juliá, Mary Beth Hurt and Meryl Streep, whose career was in its beginning stages. Towards the end of the decade she played Winnie, in Beckett's "Happy Days".

paragraph: Worth also appeared in the premiere of another Albee play, "The Lady from Dubuque", which closed after twelve performances; a revival of Ibsen's" John Gabriel Borkman"; "Toys in the Attic" by Lillian Hellman; and "The Golden Age" by A. R. Gurney.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:The later years.

paragraph: She starred as the goddess Athena in The National Radio Theater's 1981 Peabody Award-winning radio drama of "The Odyssey of Homer". On screen in 1982, Worth co-starred with Michael Caine and Christopher Reeve in the film version of a Broadway murder mystery, "Deathtrap", playing a psychic.

paragraph: In 1984, Peter Hall invited her to return to the National Theatre to play Volumnia in "Coriolanus", with Ian McKellen in the title role. The impresario Joseph Papp persuaded her to repeat Volumnia off-Broadway in a production by Steven Berkoff, when she was once again partnered by Christopher Walken as Coriolanus. She was also seen in David Hare's "The Bay at Nice" (National, 1987) and in "Chère Maître" (New York, 1998 and Almeida, London 1999), compiled by Peter Eyre from the letters of George Sand and Gustave Flaubert. Worth also starred along with Michael Hordern in George Bernard Shaw's play, "You Never Can Tell" at the Theatre Royal, Haymarket in 1987 and 1998.

paragraph: In 1991, she won a third Tony for her performance as the tough-as-nails Grandma Kurnitz in Neil Simon's "Lost in Yonkers", and later appeared in the film version along with Richard Dreyfuss and Mercedes Ruehl.

paragraph: In 1999, she appeared in the film "Onegin". As she was about to begin preview performances in a Broadway revival of Anouilh's "Ring Round the Moon", Worth had a stroke and never appeared in the production. She continued to act, however, right up until September 2001, when one of her last appearances was with Paul Scofield at the Almeida Theatre in the two-handed play, "I Take Your Hand in Mine", by Carol Rocamora based on the love letters of Anton Chekhov and Olga Knipper.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Recitals.

paragraph: During the mid-1960s in New York, Worth and Gielgud had collaborated in a series of dramatic readings, first from T. S. Eliot and Edith Sitwell and then from Shakespeare. It was a form of theatre at which she became more adept as she grew older, drawing from Virginia Woolf, Ivan Turgenev and Noël Coward among others. She referred to them as "her recitals". In the mid-1990s, she devised and performed a two-hour monologue, "Portrait of Edith Wharton", based on Wharton's life and writings. Using no props, costumes or sets, she created characters entirely through vocal means.

paragraph: Section::::Death and funeral.

paragraph: She died in 2002 following a second stroke in New York's Roosevelt Hospital, at the age of 85. At her memorial service, held at the Public Theater in New York City, numerous speakers paid tribute to her included Edward Albee, Christopher Walken, Mercedes Ruehl, Meryl Streep and Alan Rickman.

paragraph: There was also music performed by flutist Paula Robison and pianist Horacio Gutiérrez.

paragraph: Alfonso Martínez de Toledo

paragraph: Alfonso Martínez de Toledo (ca. 1398 – ca. 1470), known as the Archpriest of Talavera ("Arcipreste de Talavera"), was a Castilian poet and writer. He was born and studied in Toledo, Spain, spent time in Catalonia and Aragón, and served as a prebendary at the cathedral of Toledo. He then became archpriest at Talavera.

paragraph: He wrote two hagiographies, "Vida de San Isidoro" ("Life of Saint Isidore") and "Vida de San Ildefonso" ("Life of Saint Ildephonsus"), as well as the historical compilation "Atalaya de las crónicas".

paragraph: Section::::Corbacho.

paragraph: Martinez wrote the work known as "Corbacho o Reprobación del amor mundano" (1438), inspired by Boccaccio's "Corbaccio" (dated to either 1355 or 1365). Martínez’s "Corbacho" is his best known work. It consists of four parts, the first of which is a treatise against lust; the second, a satire lampooning women of all social stations; the third and fourth, the complexions of human beings and their varying amatory inclinations. Phlegmatic men were “lazy and negligent... neither with a propensity to neither laugh nor cry… taciturn, solitary, half-mute... suspicious...” In it he describes the personalities of men of varying complexions: Melancholic men "have no sense of temperance in anything they do, and only bang their head against the wall. They're very iniquitous, petulant, miserable...”

paragraph: Martínez employs bombastic language latinized by the device known as hyperbaton, and also employs rhymed prose and homeoteleuton. The value of this work resides in the fact that Martínez also employed vernacular language, capturing popular and colloquial speech, thus making his work a precursor to "La Celestina".

paragraph: The first part of "Corbacho" is focused on earthly love, which Martínez rejects by pointing out all of its pitfalls. In the second part, Martínez applies his arguments against earthly love to a criticism of women in general, repeating such stock arguments, for example, that women are the source of man's perdition. Martínez's chapter titles alone indicate only too well his opinions on the opposite sex: “How a woman is jealous of anyone more beautiful than she,” “How a woman is disobedient,” “How a woman lies even while under oath,” “How a man should watch out for a drunken woman,” “How a woman loves whomever she pleases regardless of age.”

paragraph: Juan Rodríguez de la Cámara's "Triunfo de las donas" (1445) includes 40 feminist arguments meant to counter the misogyny of Martínez's "Corbacho". Rodríguez's work presents arguments for the superiority of women to men.

Bambera emphasized that since becoming bishop in 2010, he has pursued a zero-tolerance policy toward clerical abuse.

Though his roots are in Hindu religious traditions, he use to protest certain rituals he perceived to be superstitions. However, he liked to study Sanskrit, Telugu languages at TTD High school, Tirupati. While studying high school final (S.S.C), atheism had more influence on him.

paragraph: He penned a different version of Ramayana by the name Sundara Ramayanam. Later on, he also wrote Sundara Bharatam, besides half-a-dozen other works.

Having lost love of his life, Sankaram became unstable and led a wanderer life. He toured many places, written some books during this period and one such "Buddha Geeta" became popular and sold over 10000 copies. However, with his wayward and unstable life towards the end, he missed many opportunities and recognition in life.

paragraph: Peire Bremon Ricas Novas

paragraph: Peire Bremon Ricas Novas (fl. 1230–1242) was a Provençal troubadour who left behind twenty works: thirteen "cansos", six "sirventes", and one "tenso". His treatment of courtly love was somewhat original.

paragraph: Peire's "senhal" or nickname, "Ricas Novas", means "interesting stories" (literally "rich news"). It indicates his reputation as a "jongleur" who spread wild tales. Peire's Provençal identity is clinched by his poem "La cart cartier aurem nos autri proensal", with its reference to "us Provençals".

paragraph: Peire's first datable work is a "tenso" written at the court of Raymond Berengar IV of Provence in 1230 with Gui de Cavalhon. At the court of Provence Peire also met Bertran d'Alamanon and Sordello, whose "planh" for Blacatz he imitated. Peire left the court of Raymond Berengar sometime in or after 1237 and went to that of Barral of Baux and thence to that of Raymond VII of Toulouse. Though there is no record of his having visited Spain, his "Rics pres, ferms e sobeirans" celebrates an anonymous Castilian "domna" (lady). He eventually fell out with Sordello and the two had an acrimonious exchange of vitriolic "sirventes" in 1240–41.

paragraph: Guilhem Rainol d'At

paragraph: Guilhem Rainol d'At (also "Guillem"; fl. 1209) was a minor Provençal troubadour from Apt in the Vaucluse.

paragraph: Guilhem Rainol was probably the "Guilelmus Ranoli" who witnessed a document of Alfonso II of Provence in 1209. In the north Italian troubadour manuscript "D" (1254, now in the Biblioteca Estense, Modena), the poem "A tornar m'er enquer al primer us" is assigned to "Guillems Rauols", probably an orthographic error for Guilhem Rainol. Elsewhere this same work is ascribed to Tomier and Palaizi, Bertran de Born, or Bertran lo Filhs.

paragraph: Little to nothing is known of Guilhem's life. In a "tenso" with Guilhem Magret, his interlocutor alludes to his having left the religious life. Guilhem's own works hint at a religious inclination. In the "sirventes" "L'aissatz m'era de chantar" he attacks the rich, whom he portrays as humbled by the clerics. His most interesting works, however, give insight into his personality and his home life: his light songs "Quant aug chantar lo gal sus en l'erbos" and "Auzir cugei lo chant e.l crit el glat" were "tensos" he made up between him and his wife.

paragraph: Sarrabezolles was born in Toulouse, studied at that city's École des Beaux-Arts (1904–1907), then from 1907 to 1914 at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he settled for good. In 1914 he was runner-up ("premier second") in Prix de Rome competition. From 1914 to 1918, during World War I, he was held prisoner in Germany. In 1920 he married Nicole Cervi, with whom he had three children. In 1923 they moved into a studio at 16 rue des Volontaires where he remained until his death. A square there, in the 15th arrondissement of Paris, bears his name.

In 1926 the sculptor developed a method of direct carving in setting concrete, and much of his subsequent work was integrated with architecture, particularly in collaboration with architect Paul Tournon, and in monumental scale.

paragraph: Ragnhild Sigurdsdotter

paragraph: The name Ragnhild Sigurdsdotter may refer to two different figures from Old Norse literature, an amalgam of them, or a purely fictitious figure.

paragraph: BULLET::::- The wife of Halfdan the Black (c. 810 – c. 860)

paragraph: BULLET::::- A woman who lived during the late 9th and/or early 10th centuries, who was the daughter of Sigurd Hart of the Dagling clan, .

paragraph: While some traditional accounts portray these two figures as the same woman, they (and their relatives) lived in differing periods.

paragraph: Section::::Ragnhild, second wife of Halfdan the Black.

paragraph: According to "Heimskringla", a Ragnhild Sigurdsdotter was the second wife of Halfdan the Black. (The first being Ragnhild Haraldsdotter Gulskeg.) Hake, a berserker encountered her father in Hadeland and killed him, before kidnapping Ragnhild Sigurdsdotter from her home. Halfdan the Black then had her kidnapped from Hake, so that he could marry her. "Fagrskinna" does not mention any of these details. However, both sagas agree that Ragnhild and Halfdan were the parents of Harald Fairhair.

paragraph: Section::::Ragnhild, daughter of Sigurd Hart.

paragraph: According to the Ragnarssona þáttr, Ragnhild Sigurdsdotter, daughter of Sigurd Hart and his wife Ingeborg ("Ingibjorg") was the granddaughter of Helgi the Sharp and Aslaug. Her maternal grandfather was Harald Klak. The identity of her maternal grandmother is not mentioned. The Heimskringla changes the name of Harald Klak's daughter but the given lineage remains the same. "Ragnhild's mother was Thorny, a daughter of Klakharald king in Jutland, and a sister of Thrye Dannebod who was married to the Danish king, Gorm the Old, who then ruled over the Danish dominions." Some sources describe Aslaug as a twin sister of Harthacnut of Denmark. The "Ragnarssona þáttr", "Fagrskinna", and "Heimskringla" suggest that Ragnhild was a daughter or even granddaughter of Sigurd Snake-in-the-Eye, unless there was more than one man by that name. That is, most sources suggest that Sigurd Snake-in-the-Eye was active only in the "late 9th century", which would mean that he was either about the same age as Ragnhild or "younger".

paragraph: Section::::Traditional accounts.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Ragnarssona þáttr"

paragraph: According to the Ragnarssona þáttr, "Sigurd Hart. Of all the men ever seen, he was the fairest, and the biggest, and the strongest. They were the same age, Gorm Knutsson and Sigurd Hart. When Sigurd was twelve, he killed the berserk Hildibrand in a duel, and he single-handedly slew twelve men in that fight. After that Klakk-Harald gave him his daughter, who was called Ingibjorg. They had two children: Gudthorm and Ragnhild."

paragraph: "Then Sigurd learnt that King Frodi, his father's brother, was dead. He went north to Norway and became king over Ringerike, his inheritance. There is a long story told of him, as he did all manner of mighty deeds. But it's said of his passing, that he rode out hunting in the wilderness, as was his custom, and Haki Hadaberserk came at him with thirty fully armed men and they fought with him." The name of his opponent means "Haki, berserker from Hadeland." Nothing else is mentioned of his past. "Sigurd fell there, after first killing twelve men, but King Haki had lost his right hand and received three other wounds besides. Afterwards Haki and his men rode to Ringerike, to Stein, where Sigurd's dwelling was, and took away Ragnhild his daughter, and his son Gudthorm, and plenty of goods too, and carried them off home with him to Hadeland. And soon after that, he had a great feast prepared and meant to celebrate his wedding, but it was put off because his wounds weren't healing. Ragnhild was fifteen years old then, and Gudthorm fourteen. Autumn passed, and Haki was laid up with his wounds till Yule."

paragraph: "At this time, King Halfdan the Black was staying at his estate in Hedmark. He sent Harek Gand with a hundred and twenty men, and they marched over the frozen Lake Mjøsa to Hadeland one night and came the next morning to King Haki's home and seized all the doors of the hall where the retainers were sleeping. And then they went to King Haki's bedroom and took Ragnhild and Gudthorm, her brother, and all the treasure that was there, and carry it off with them. They burnt all the retainers in their hall and then leave. But King Haki got up and got dressed and went after them for a while. But when he came to the ice, he turned down his sword-hilt to the ground and fell on the point and met his death there, and he's buried on the bank of the lake."

paragraph: "King Halfdan saw them coming over the ice with a covered wagon and guessed their mission had gone exactly as he wished. He had a message sent then to all the settlements and invited to all the important people in Hedmark to a big feast that very day. There he celebrated his wedding to Ragnhild, and they lived together for many years after. Their son was King Harald the Fine-Haired, who was first to become sole ruler over the whole of Norway."

paragraph: The "Ragnarssona þáttr" was preserved in the Hauksbók by Haukr Erlendsson. The book is a collection of Old Norse tales and was compiled in the early 14th century.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Heimskringla"

paragraph: A similar account is given in the "Saga of Halfdan the Black", part of the Heimskringla by Snorri Sturluson. The Kings' sagas included were written in the 13th century.

paragraph: "Sigurd Hjort was the name of a king in Ringerike, who was stouter and stronger than any other man, and his equal could not be seen for a handsome appearance. His father was Helge Hvasse (the Sharp); and his mother was Aslaug, a daughter of Sigurd the worm-eyed, who again was a son of Ragnar Lodbrok. It is told of Sigurd that when he was only twelve years old he killed in single combat the berserk Hildebrand, and eleven others of his comrades; and many are the deeds of manhood told of him in a long saga about his feats. Sigurd had two children, one of whom was a daughter, called Ragnhild, then twenty years of age, and an excellent brisk girl. Her brother Guthorm was a youth." The account slightly differs from the Ragnarssona þáttr when giving the age of Ragnhild at the time of Sigurd Hart's death. According to "Ragnarssona þáttr", she was fifteen years old, but according to "Halfdan the Black's saga", she was twenty.

paragraph: "It is related in regard to Sigurd's death that he had a custom of riding out quite alone in the uninhabited forest to hunt the wild beasts that are hurtful to man, and he was always very eager at this sport. One day he rode out into the forest as usual, and when he had ridden a long way he came out at a piece of cleared land near to Hadeland. There the berserk Hake came against him with thirty men, and they fought. Sigurd Hjort fell there, after killing twelve of Hake's men; and Hake himself lost one hand, and had three other wounds. Then Hake and his men rode to Sigurd's house, where they took his daughter Ragnhild and her brother Guthorm, and carried them, with much property and valuable articles, home to Hadeland, where Hake had many great farms. He ordered a feast to be prepared, intending to hold his wedding with Ragnhild; but the time passed on account of his wounds, which healed slowly; and the berserk Hake of Hadeland had to keep his bed, on account of his wounds, all the autumn and beginning of winter."

paragraph: "Now King Halfdan was in Hedemark at the Yule entertainments when he heard this news; and one morning early, when the king was dressed, he called to him Harek Gand, and told him to go over to Hadeland, and bring him Ragnhild, Sigurd Hjort's daughter. Harek got ready with a hundred men, and made his journey so that they came over the lake to Hake's house in the grey of the morning, and beset all the doors and stairs of the places where the house-servants slept. Then they broke into the sleeping-room where Hake slept, took Ragnhild, with her brother Guthorm, and all the goods that were there, and set fire to the house-servants' place, and burnt all the people in it. Then they covered over a magnificent waggon, placed Ragnhild and Guthorm in it, and drove down upon the ice. Hake got up and went after them a while; but when he came to the ice on the lake, he turned his sword-hilt to the ground and let himself fall upon the point, so that the sword went through him. He was buried under a mound on the banks of the lake."

paragraph: "When King Halfdan, who was very quick of sight, saw the party returning over the frozen lake, and

paragraph: with a covered waggon, he knew that their errand was accomplished according to his desire. Thereupon he ordered the tables to be set out, and sent people all round in the neighbourhood to invite plenty of guests; and the same day there was a good feast which was also Halfdan's marriage-feast with Ragnhild, who became a great queen. Ragnhild's mother was Thorny, a daughter of Klakharald king in Jutland, and a sister of Thrye Dannebod who was married to the Danish king, Gorm the Old, who then ruled over the Danish dominions."

paragraph: "Ragnhild, who was wise and intelligent, dreamt great dreams. She dreamt, for one, that she was standing out in her herb-garden, and she took a thorn out of her shift; but while she was holding the thorn in her hand it grew so that it became a great tree, one end of which struck itself down into the earth, and it became firmly rooted; and the other end of the tree raised itself so high in the air that she could scarcely see over it, and it became also wonderfully thick. The under part of the tree was red with blood, but the stem upwards was beautifully green and the branches white as snow. There were many and great limbs to the tree, some high up, others low down; and so vast were the tree's branches that they seemed to her to cover all Norway, and even much more."

paragraph: "Queen Ragnhild gave birth to a son, and water was poured over him, and the name of Harald given him, and he soon grew stout and remarkably handsome. As he grew up he became very expert at all feats, and showed also a good understanding. He was much beloved by his mother, but less so by his father."

paragraph: Section::::Historicity.

paragraph: According to "A History of the Vikings" (1968) by Gwyn Jones, "the written sources of the twelfth century and thirteenth centuries must be regarded with scepticism or downright disbelief" when they portray the chieftains, jarls and kings of Viking Age Norway. "Their world is that of tradition and folktale rather than history". Jones considers however that the grandparents of Harald I of Norway "loom closer to the frontier of history." The assassination of Gudrød the Hunter by command of his wife Åsa could be estimated to c. 840. Halfdan the Black was their son. The account of the assassination is given in the Ynglinga saga, also written by Snorri Sturluson. "They had a son by their marriage called Halfdan; and the autumn that Halfdan was a year old Gudrod went upon a round of feasts. He lay with his ship in Stiflesund, where they had been drinking hard, so that the king was very tipsy. In the evening, about dark, the king left the ship; and when he had got to the end of the gangway from the ship to the shore, a man ran against him, thrust a spear through him, and killed him. The man was instantly put to death, and in the morning when it was light the man was discovered to be Åsa's page-boy: nor did she conceal that it was done by her orders."

paragraph: The saga of Halfdan the Black portrays its hero rising to the throne of Agder and Vestfold at the age of eighteen years (c. 858). "When he was eighteen years old he took his kingdom in Agder, and went immediately to Vestfold, where he divided that kingdom, as before related, with his brother Olaf." Olaf being Olaf Geirstad-Alf, a paternal half-brother to Halfdan. Gwynn considers that accounts of how Ragnhild was married to Halfdan "are heavy with the accoutrement of fictional saga". Wedding and bedding the rescued princess the same day of meeting her follows "the highest tradition of the Sagas of Old Time."

paragraph: The identification of Ragnhild as a niece of Thyra is considered improbable due to chronology involved. Ragnhild would be a 9th-century figure while Thyra became Queen consort of Denmark in the 10th century. Gwynn considers the saga of Halfdan the Black to be able to give some historical information but dismisses its second part, covering events from the marriage with Ragnhild to his death, as based on "legend, folktale, and dreams." The dream of Ragnhild has a clear implication, that "her progeny would flourish like a great tree with blood-red roots, green trunk, and snow-white branches which would cover the whole of Norway and lands father afield." Such dreams of future greatness were reported in tales concerning the parents of other conquerors. Gwyn points to a literary tradition of such "dreams," dating at least to the surviving narratives about Cyrus the Great. Such tales would also exist about figures born later that Harald I, such as Sigurd I of Norway.

paragraph: William Watkins (architect)

paragraph: William Watkins (1834–1926) was an architect who worked in Lincoln, England, and is particularly noted for his Terracotta Revival Architecture.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Watkins was articled to the Worcester architect Henry Day between 1854 and 1859, and he then worked as principal assistant to the Lincoln architect Henry Goddard between 1860 and 1864. He set up his own practice St Edmond's Chambers, Silver Street, Lincoln in 1864 and was living at Leyland House Lincoln in 1881. Between 1877 and 1883 he was in partnership with William Scorer. Two of his sons, William Gregory Watkins and Henry (or Harry) Garnham Watkins also became architects. William Gregory (1869-1859) was articled to his father and became a partner with his father in 1897. Harry Garnham Watkins (1870/1-1956), joined the practice of Albert Nelson Bromley, formed the partnership of Bromley and Watkins from 1912 to 1928, and was to become a leading architect in Nottinghamshire. William Watkins retired from the practice in 1918, and it was continued by his son William Gregory Watkins until 1934, when Bob Coombes (1900-1968) became a partner. The practice had moved to Heslam Chambers, 191 High Street, Lincoln by 1959. The practice later moved to 4 Burton Road Lincoln (now the Bronze Pig restaurant), and it ceased operating about 1990.

paragraph: It is suggested by Antram that the Lincoln Drill Hall was by Watkins The attribution is incorrect – the architect was Henry Goddard.

paragraph: BULLET::::- Royal Albert Orphanage, Henwick, Worcester. 1868. The building cost £5,000 and the contract was won by Watkins in open competition. Funds were raised for the construction of permanent premises for the institution, with a donation of £4,000 being received from local MP Alderman Richard Padmore, and legacy of £1,000 in 1866 from Mr Edward Wheeler. A site was obtained on Henwick Road, Worcester, and a competition held for designs for the new building. The plans put forward by William Watkins and Samuel Dutton Walker were chosen.

paragraph: BULLET::::- Grantham Town Hall, Grantham. 1867–69. This is an early work by Watkins in an Italianate/ Jacobethan revival style with stone dressing and florid Corinthian columns surmounted by a clock tower giving a heavy and ungainly appearance. The Guildhall, as originally designed, was made up of three separate buildings – the main building, which housed a ballroom and courtroom (or session's hall); a governor's residence and a gaol for up to 18 men and women on two floors. The work was carried out Mr Wartnaby, of Little Gonerby, for £7,260. In 1991 it was redesigned by the Sleaford architect Tim Benton and re-opened as the council owned Guildhall Arts Centre at a cost of £1.2 million.

paragraph: BULLET::::- The Market Hall, Corn Exchange and Fish Market, Doncaster. The impressive facade and arched Exchange buildings were built to the designs of Watkins]] of Lincoln, who won an architectural competition in 1870. It is set within an earlier U shaped Market Hall structure of 1847-9 by J Butterfield, the architect to Doncaster Corporation. The Corn Market, Market Hall and Fish Markets were further extended in 1930 and the overall complex is Grade II listed. The Corn Exchange has advanced central and side bays with projecting stonework to corners, acting as plinths for clasping) corner pilasters and adjacent engaged red sandstone columns to first floor. The balustrade to front has a plinth inscribed "Wm Cotterill Clark Mayor 1873". The interior of the corn exchange is very elaborate with a gallery supported on a round arched arcade with alternating plain and panelled pilasters between the arches. Galleries to sides have paired iron columns with foliate capitals supported by round arches of pierced ironwork with sumptuous decoration to the spandrels. Roof with iron arched trusses with decorative bracing, with a large central ridge light supported on foliate trusses.

It was restored to its original appearances at street level in 1992.

paragraph: BULLET::::- HSBC, High Street Lincoln, 1893. Formerly the Lincoln and Lindsey Bank, later Midland Bank, The earlier building was occupied by Hepworths the clothiers.

paragraph: BULLET::::- Sleaford. The Midland Bank (now HSBC) was built in 1903, designed by William Watkins and Son, in a stone faced Jacobethan/Renaissance Revival style with shaped gables and oriel windows.
