paragraph: George Grenfell

paragraph: George Grenfell (21 August 1849, in Sancreed, Cornwall – 1 July 1906, in Basoko, Congo Free State [now the Democratic Republic of the Congo]) was a Cornish missionary and explorer.

paragraph: Section::::Early years.

paragraph: Grenfell was born at Sancreed, near Penzance, Cornwall. After the family moved to Birmingham he was educated at a branch of King Edward's school. Though his parents were Anglicans he soon joined Heneage Street Baptist Chapel, where he was admitted to membership by baptism on 7 Nov.1864.

paragraph: Influenced by the likes of David Livingstone, Grenfell’s ambition was to become a missionary so in September 1873 he entered the Baptist College, Stokes Croft, Bristol. On 10 Nov. 1874 the Baptist Missionary Society accepted him for work in Africa.

paragraph: In 1875, he went as a Baptist missionary to Cameroon, West Africa, with Alfred Saker (1814–80), and thereafter did some exceedingly important work in exploring little-known rivers of the Congo Basin. In 1877 he removed to Victoria and explored the Wouri River and in the following year he ascended Mongo ma Loba Mountain.

paragraph: Section::::Congo explorations.

paragraph: In 1881, cooperating with the Rev T J Comber and others, he established a chain of missions at Musuko, Vivi, Isangila, Manyanga, and other points, and in 1884, in a small steam vessel, he explored the Congo to the equator. He established headquarters at Arthington, near Leopoldville, in 1884, and launched on Stanley Pool a river steam vessel, the "Peace", in which he explored the Kiva, the Kwango, and the Kasai rivers, discovered the Ruki, or Black River, and ascended the Mubangi for 200 miles (320 km) to Grenfell Falls, at lat. 4° 40' N.

paragraph: In 1885 he explored with Curt von François other tributaries of the Congo, notably the Busira, along which he found Pygmy Batwa peoples. In the following year he examined the Kasai, the Sankuru, and the Luebo and Lulua, and made careful records of the Bakuba and Bakete tribes. He was awarded in 1887 the Patron's Gold Medal of the Royal Geographical Society for his explorations in the Cameroons and Congo.

paragraph: In 1891 he was appointed a plenipotentiary for Belgium to delimit the boundary line between the Belgian and Portuguese possessions along the Luanda frontier. In 1903 he protested to King Leopold against consistent refusal of the Congo Free State authorities to countenance further Baptist advance beyond Yakusu on the Upper Congo, but with no effect.

paragraph: From 1893 to 1900 Grenfell remained chiefly at Bolobo on the Congo, where a strong mission station was established. After a visit to England in 1900, he started for a systematic exploration of the Aruwimi River and by November 1902 had reached Mawambi, about eighty miles from the western extreme of the Uganda protectorate.

paragraph: Section::::Last years.

paragraph: Between 1903 and 1906 Grenfell was busy with a new station at Yalemba, fifteen miles east of the confluence of the Aruwimi with the Congo.

paragraph: Meanwhile, he found difficulty in obtaining building sites from the Congo Free State, which accorded them freely to Roman Catholics. He grew convinced of the Catholic character of Belgian administration, in which he had previously trusted. In 1903 King Leopold despatched at Grenfell's entreaty a commission of inquiry, before which he gave evidence, but its report gave him little satisfaction. Grenfell died after a bad attack of blackwater fever at Basoko on 1 July 1906.

paragraph: A memorial tablet was unveiled in Heneage Street Baptist Chapel, Birmingham, on 24 September 1907. During major 1950s clearance of the area for redevelopment Heneage Street Baptist was closed. The tablet was recovered and was moved to a new Chapel in north-east Birmingham named in his honour.

paragraph: Ichiki Shirō

paragraph: Ichiki was born in Satsuma Province (now Kagoshima Prefecture) in Kyūshū on 24 December 1828. He excelled in the study of topics related to gunpowder production in the Takashima-ryū school of gunnery. This talent was recognized by Shimazu Nariakira, the "daimyō" of Satsuma, who selected Ichiki to be one of his personal retainers. In 1848, Shimazu obtained the first daguerreotype camera ever imported into Japan. Ever fascinated by Western technology, he ordered his retainers (including Ichiki) to study it and produce working photographs. Due to the limitations of the lens used and the lack of formal training, it took many years for a quality photograph to be created, but on 17 September 1857, Ichiki created a portrait of Shimazu in formal attire. All this was recorded in detail in Ichiki's memoirs, which were compiled in 1884.

paragraph: This photograph became an object of worship in Terukuni jinja after Shimazu's death, but it later went missing. Lost for a century, the daguerreotype was discovered in a warehouse in 1975 and was later determined to be the oldest daguerreotype in existence that was created by a Japanese photographer. For this reason, it was designated an Important Cultural Property by the government of Japan in 1999, the first photograph so designated.

paragraph: Motoichi Kumagai

paragraph: Born in Ōchi (; now Achi), Shimoina District, Nagano Prefecture, Kumagai worked from 1930 to 1933 as a teacher. He had his first work for children published in the May 1932 issue of the magazine "Kodomo no Kuni." In 1936 he bought a Pearlette camera (a Konishiroku derivative of the Vest Pocket Kodak), with a simple meniscus lens, and started to use this to photograph village life; his first photograph collection was published two years later by Asahi Shinbunsha. In 1939 he went to Tokyo as a government photographer and was later sent three times to Manchukuo; after the war, he returned to teach in his village.

paragraph: A book of photographs of school life published by Iwanami Shoten in 1955 won a photography prize from "Mainichi Shimbun."

paragraph: Kumagai published books of works for children as well as books of photographs. His photographs are held in the permanent collection of the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography, and a volume of the series Nihon no Shashinka is dedicated to his work. He received various honours for his work, especially since around 1990. The village of Achi created a gallery, Kumagai Motoichi Shashin Dōgakan, for the permanent exhibition of his work.

paragraph: He died in 2010, in a nursing home in Tokyo, of natural causes.

paragraph: Francesco Benozzo

paragraph: Francesco Benozzo (born 22 February 1969) is an Italian poet, musician and philologist. He works as a Research Fellow in Philology at the University of Bologna, Italy.

paragraph: Section::::Biographical notes.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Poetry"

paragraph: Author of long epic poems about natural landscapes, Benozzo usually composes them orally and then performs them with his harp (the last two published are "Felci in rivolta / Ferns in revolt" [2015]) and "La capanna del naufrago / The Castaway's Shack" [2017]. Since 2015 he has been nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature for his poetry in defence of natural places and for his use of techniques belonging to the ancient tradition of oral poetry. In 2016, on the official webpage of the Swedish Academy, he was consecrated by the international readers' jury as the most worthy author for the prize itself.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Philology and Linguistics"

paragraph: In his revolutionary book "Speaking Australopithecus" (written together with the archaeologist Marcel Otte) he argues for a much greater antiquity of human language than has usually been presumed in recent research (according to which it was born with Homo sapiens at the end of Middle Paleolithic – 50.000 years ago – or at the most with some Neandertal, 200.000 years ago), providing linguistic and archaeological evidence for seeing the appearance of human language with Australopithecus, between 4 and 3 million years ago. He is the author of more than 700 publications, including academic works on oral poetry, shamanism, anarchism, ethnophilology, the Paleolithic Continuity Theory, and the problem of landscape in literature. He is the general editor of the international journals "Philology" (Peter Lang publisher, Bern-Oxford-New York), "Quaderni di Semantica" (Edizioni dell'Orso, Alessandria, Italy) and "Quaderni di Filologia Romanza" (Pàtron editore, Bologna, Italy).

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Music"

paragraph: As a songwriter and harpist, he released 11 CDs, produced in Italy, Denmark and UK (the last published is "Ytiddo BPB - Benozzo Performs Bowie" [2017]), reaching an international wide appeal (two special mentions at the Edinburgh Folk Awards, one prize as "Best album of the month" assigned by the magazine "RootsWorld", and for two times the National Italian Musical Prize "Giovanna Daffini"). He represented Italian poetry and music in different international happenings, including the Rich Text Literature Festival in Cardiff (Wales), the Tradicionarius Festival in Barcelona (Spain), the Stanza Poetry Festival in St. Andrews (Scotland), the Festival Literario de Madeira (Portugal), and the Printemps des poètes (France) He performed in Rome together with the Nobel Prize Wislawa Szymborska.

paragraph: Jovanka Bončić-Katerinić

paragraph: Jovanka Bončić-Katerinić (; 5 July 1887 – 27 December 1966) was a Yugoslav architect who worked in the interwar period. Born in Serbia, Bončić-Katerinić was the first woman to obtain an engineering degree in Imperial Germany.

paragraph: Section::::Education and early life.

paragraph: Bončić was born in Niš, Serbia, in 1887. Her father was Mihailo, a lawyer and judge. Her mother, Katarina Petrović, was originally from Belgrade. Bončić first attended elementary school in Požarevac and then in Vranje. In 1905, she graduated from a Belgrade high school and went on to study architecture at the University of Belgrade. While there, she undertook an internship for the Serbian State Railways. In her last year of studies, she was granted a scholarship from the Ministry of Construction allowing her to attend Darmstadt University in Germany where she obtained two degrees. In 1913, she graduated with a bachelors in architecture and also one in engineering.

paragraph: In 1914, Bončić married Ukrainian engineer Andrej Katerinić, whom she met at Darmstadt University. They lived in several cities, including Petrograd, Riga, Moscow, Kozelovo, Kiev, Padolsky and the outskirts of Odessa. To escape the Russian Revolution, they fled to Belgrade in 1922. He worked as an engineer for the municipal government. Bončić and her husband had three sons, Mihailo, Petar and Vitaly.

Until the outbreak of the Second World War, she constructed mostly public buildings in modern-day Serbia and in Bosnia-Herzegovina. In 1931, she helped construct the Banski Dvor cultural center in Banja Luka. Banski Dvor is today a national monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

paragraph: She was the architect of several structures in Belgrade. In 1935, she built the "Queen Mary Women Teachers Training School" and co-designed the Faculty of Law building with architect Petar Bajalović. She also worked on the reconstruction of the "Ankera" home located on Balkanska street. She is known for having designed Belgrade's Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in 1939. The structure is free standing and has an unadorned facade.

paragraph: Charles Corydon Hall

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Hall was the son of Theodore Hall and his wife Jennie. He was born on a farm at Sandisfield, Massachusetts, on July 3, 1860. He grew up in Worcester, Massachusetts. Hall went to the local public schools and graduated from Westfield High School. He attended Worcester Polytechnic Institute and graduated in 1882.

paragraph: Section::::Mid life and career.

paragraph: Hall's first jobs were in engineering. In 1887 he became a manager with a small steel plant in southern Ohio. Later he took a position as a manager of a steel plant in Belleville, Illinois. In the early 1890s it was discovered that Alexandria, Indiana, had a large supply of natural gas. The steel plant wanted to take advantage of this cheap fuel, so sent Hall to that city to investigate the possibilities of operating a steel mill plant there. He started the disassembly of the Belleville plant in 1895 and reconstructed it in Alexandria. Hall moved with his family to Alexandria permanently in 1897. The plans of operating this plant in this city fell through when it merged with Republic Steel Company in 1898 and moved to Youngstown, Ohio.

paragraph: Hall was on a business trip in Pittsburgh in 1897 and saw mineral wool being made from steel slag. Some of the drawbacks he noted were that it soon disintegrated into powder and was unstable when moist. He thought that perhaps Alexandria's abundance of limestone to make a rock wool product similar to the steel mineral wool might be something to work on. Hall, using his chemical engineering background, experimented with the bedrock material. He discovered that it had a melting point near that of glass. He played with this molten stone in steel cupola furnaces and drew fibers out of them with blasts of air. The result of this experiment was a wool-like substance similar to that of the steel slag mineral wool. His product however did not have sulfur in it, which he considered caused the problems with steel mineral wool. He eventually determined that his material was an excellent insulator. He organized some investors and with $600 started a plant in 1897 to produce this insulating material in Alexandria.

paragraph: Hall negotiated the purchase on several hundred acres of land that contained limestone that could be used in the future for making rock wool. At the time he was manufacturing this insulating material, the chief users of insulation were breweries, distilleries, and cold storage facilities. For their insulation they used cork that was imported from Spain and Portugal. These firms were skeptical of Hall's new insulating material, so he made board-like sheets under the brand name "Rock Cork" to make it more appealing to the market. Hall in 1902 created the Chemical Crystal Company to produce this product as the first factory in the United States to do so. A few years later the natural gas supply of the area had been used up. All the local industries moved out, including the original investors of Chemical Crystal Company and the company ceased to exist.

paragraph: Hall then organized in 1906 another group of investors to form the Banner Rock Company. It operated the same plant in Alexandria. They used coke then as a substitute fuel for the furnaces to melt the rock to product the rock wool material. By the 1920s the business was very productive. Hall then acquired additional lots in Alexandria for building. A second plant was eventually built and later two additional plants. Hall initiated the rock wool insulation industry in America. He is considered its father and progenitor.

paragraph: Section::::Later life and death.

paragraph: Hall sold Banner Rock Company in 1929 to Johns-Manville Corporation and retired. He bought a roofing company in his retirement , which he ran to the end of his life. Hall died August 19, 1935.

paragraph: Bernard Harley

paragraph: Bernard Harley was an Ordinary Seaman in the Union Navy during the American Civil War, where he earned the Medal of Honor. He was born in 1842, in Kings County (Brooklyn), New York. While aboard the U.S. Picket Boat No. 1, on October 27, 1864, he was awarded the Medal of Honor for his extraordinary heroism in action near Plymouth, North Carolina. The Confederate ram Albemarle had resisted many previous attacks, but Harley and his picket boat, equipped with a spar torpedo, succeeded in passing the enemy pickets. They were then able to destroy the Ablemarle. The picket boat was destroyed by enemy fire, and almost the entire crew was taken prisoner or lost. This included Harley, who was taken as a prisoner of war.

paragraph: Harley was awarded his Medal of Honor on December 31, 1864. He was married to Anna Harley (?-1909). Harley died on January 15, 1886 in Kings County (Brooklyn), New York, and was later buried in the Holy Cross Cemetery.

paragraph: Moses Harris (October 8, 1837 – June 27, 1927) was an officer in the United States Army who fought for the Union during the American Civil War and was awarded the Medal of Honor.

paragraph: Harris was born on October 8, 1837 in Andover, New Hampshire. He stayed in New Hampshire until enlisting to fight in the Union Army. While a First Lieutenant in the 1st U.S. Cavalry, on August 28, 1864 at Smithfield, Virginia, Harris was faced with an attack by a superior force. After the engagement, Harris was cited as having "personal gallantry" ... "so conspicuous as to inspire the men to extraordinary efforts, resulting in complete rout of the enemy." For this action, he was awarded the Medal of Honor on November 23, 1896.

paragraph: Harris served the rest of his career in the 1st US Cavalry, rising to Major of the regiment. He also married Abba Eliza Boutelle Harris (1841-1916), and had two daughters: Eleanor Sarah Harris Haverstick (1876-1949), and Margaret Boutelle Harris (1878-1970). Harris died on June 27, 1927 in New York, USA, and was buried in the United States Military Academy Post Cemetery.

paragraph: Khun Srun

paragraph: Khun Srun (, 1945–1978) was an important Cambodian writer. He was born in Char village, Roveang commune, Samrong district, Takéo province, into a poor Chinese Cambodian family. When he was eight, his father, Khun Kim Chheng, a Chinese man who had fled Communism, died, and he and his six siblings were raised by his mother, Chi Eng, a small shopkeeper and a devout Buddhist. He began his schooling during the country's first years of independence, when the doors to higher education and professionalization were inching open to all Cambodians, regardless of their social and economic class. A brilliant student, he studied Khmer literature and psychology at the university in Phnom Penh, becoming widely read in the sciences, mathematics, and European literature. Amid the turmoil of the 1960s, he worked as a professor of mathematics and a journalist while writing fiction and poetry. He also worked as a member of the textbook editorial committee at the Ministry of Education. In less than four years, he published three collections of poems, short tales, and philosophical anecdotes; two collections of autobiographical short stories, "The Last Residence" and "The Accused"; and a final volume of poems, "For a Woman". He was influenced by both existentialism and Cambodian Buddhism. In 1971, he was imprisoned during 7 months by the right-wing Lon Nol government for refusing to collaborate, but still refused to align himself with the extreme left. In 1973, after being imprisoned for a second time, he finally joined the communist guerrillas. He was only 28, and his life as a writer was finished. After the Khmer Rouge took power, in 1975, Khun Srun (aka Phoeun - ភឿន) was assigned work as a railway engineer). On the 20th of December 1978, he, his wife and their two youngest children were victims of the last purges. They were arrested, transferred to Tuol Sleng prison and probably killed in Choeung Ek, few days before the end of Pol Pot's regime. Only Khun Srun's nine-year-old daughter, Khun Khem, survived, taken by the Khmer Rouge and forced to live among them in the forest on the Cambodian-Thai border.

paragraph: One of his brothers, Khun Ngoy, was among the intellectuals who returned to Cambodia during the rule of the Khmer Rouge and disappeared from Dey Kraham (Red Land) camp.

paragraph: The life and writing of Khun Srun is portrayed in Eric Galmard's documentary film, "A Tomb for Khun Srun" (2015).

paragraph: BULLET::::- លំនៅចុងក្រោយ ("The Last Residence"), 1972. This book is composed of five short stories.

paragraph: "Srun might have written the first story, ផ្លេកបន្ទោរមួយ ("A Flash of Lightning"), after reading the short story "Erostratus" from Sartre's book, "The Wall". When the narrator, a prisoner, takes a shower on the roof of the police station, he suddenly has the delusion that he wants to kill a woman who happens to be there, just as the hero in "Erostratus" while standing on top of a high building decides to kill someone. The second story, ភេទដែលគេជិន ("A Disgusted Nature"), deals with the confession of a lady teacher who is distrustful of men. One can draw some comparisons with characters from classical stories such as Kakey, Tum Teav, and Reamker. The lady teacher asserts that men have always exploited women, marriage does not bring women happiness and women have a right not to bear a child. The story raises gender issues that are the same today. In ផ្ទះអន្ទិតសុក ("Sok's Home"), the hero, Sok, leaves his home village and goes to Phnom Penh where he wanders from house to house as a servant. He sees that a rich family who used to live in an elegant home had come on hard times and finally found a place to live in peace in the simple home of a married couple. សាលាខ្ញុំ ("My School") and គ្រូភឿន ("Mr. Phoeun, a teacher") describe the sweet memories of Srun's schooldays."

paragraph: "Khun’s last novel, "The Accused", published in 1973, is narrated by a writer imprisoned by Cambodia’s military government. The accused asserts that he is not a person of politics or even a man of conviction, simply an observer and a writer. He, a lover of literature, wants to flee the country and be part of the wider world; yet he wants, also, to have the courage to risk his life for his principles. Shortly after "The Accused" was published, Khun left Phnom Penh and joined the Khmer Rouge." (Madeleine Thien, Brick Magazine)

paragraph: Tamás Bakócz

paragraph: Tamás Bakócz (1442 Erdőd – 15 June 1521, Esztergom) was a Hungarian archbishop, cardinal and statesman.

paragraph: He was the son of a wagoner and was adopted by his uncle, who trained him for the priesthood and whom he succeeded as rector of Tétel (1480). He studied in Breslau and Padua. Shortly afterwards he became one of the secretaries of King Matthias Corvinus, who made him bishop of Győr and a member of the royal council (1490). Under Vladislaus II of Bohemia and Hungary (1490–1516) he became successively bishop of Eger, the richest of the Hungarian sees, archbishop of Esztergom (1497), cardinal (1500), and titular Latin Patriarch of Constantinople (1510).

paragraph: From 1490 to his death in 1521 he was the leading statesman of Hungary and mainly responsible for foreign policy. It was solely through his efforts that Hungary did not accede to the league of Cambrai, was consistently friendly with Venice, and formed a family compact with the Habsburgs. He was also the only Magyar prelate who seriously aspired to the papal throne. In 1513, on the death of Julius II, he went to Rome for the express purpose of bringing about his own election as pope. He was received with more than princely pomp, and all but succeeded in his design, thanks to his extraordinary adroitness and the command of an almost unlimited bribing-fund. But Venice and the emperor played him false, and he failed.

paragraph: He returned to Hungary as papal legate, bringing with him the bull of Leo X proclaiming a fresh crusade against the Turks. But the crusade degenerated into a jacquerie which ravaged the whole kingdom, and much discredited Bakócz. He lost some of his influence at first after the death of Wladislaus, but continued to be the guiding spirit at court, till age and infirmity confined him almost entirely to his house in the last three years of his life. He left a fortune of many millions.

paragraph: He and his family are buried in a separate chapel of the Esztergom Basilica, the most precious artwork of the Hungarian Renaissance.

paragraph: Don McEwen

paragraph: Don McEwen is a former track and field athlete. He was a two-time NCAA champion in the two-mile run.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: While competing for the University of Michigan, he won consecutive NCAA men's track and field championships in the two-mile race. In 1950, McEwen won the NCAA championship with a time of 9 minutes, 1.9 seconds. In 1951, he repeated as the NCAA champion with a time of 9 minutes, 3.2 seconds. His two-mile time of 9:01.9 in 1950 set a new NCAA record.

paragraph: McEwen also won six Big Ten Conference individual championships in track. His Big Ten championships include consecutive championships in the two-mile run (1950 with a time of 9:13 and 1951 with a time of 9:23.8) and a championship in the one-mile run (1951 with a time of 4:09.0).

paragraph: Although the University of Michigan did not have a varsity cross country team at the time, McEwen also competed in cross country while attending the school. He won consecutive Big Ten Conference cross country championships. Competing in the four-mile cross country race, McEwen won the 1949 championship with a time of 19 minutes, 44.5 seconds and repeated as champion in 1950 with a time of 19 minutes, 34.3 seconds.

paragraph: McEwen, was “thought to have legitimate medal prospects in the 5000 meters” at the 1952 Summer Olympics in Helsinki, but he was unable to compete in the games because of an injury.

paragraph: In 1953, McEwen graduated from the University of Michigan Business School with a bachelor's degree in business administration.

paragraph: After graduating, McEwen became a sales trainee for Shell Oil of Canada. In 1955, he became a track coach. He was hired by the Ann Arbor Public Schools in 1958 as a math teacher and assistant track coach. He also became the cross country coach at Ann Arbor’s Pioneer High School. In 1962, McEwen stopped coaching and became a full-time education and vocational counselor at Pioneer High School.

paragraph: McEwen was inducted in the University of Michigan Athletic Hall of Honor in 1988, and into the Michigan Men’s Track and Field Hall of Fame as part of the second group of inductees in 2007.

paragraph: In February 2008, McEwen’s record for the fastest two-mile time in a dual meet between Michigan and Ohio State (9:04.6) was broken after standing for 55 years. McEwen was present at the Michigan Indoor Track Building as a volunteer timer when Michigan sophomore Sean McNamara broke McEwen’s record by approximately eight seconds. At the time, McEwen told the Ann Arbor Press: "He ran well. I'm just glad he wasn't an Ohio State guy."

paragraph: Jean-Joseph-Xavier Bidauld

paragraph: Jean-Joseph-Xavier Bidauld (10 April 1758 – 20 October 1846) was a French painter.

paragraph: A native of the city of Carpentras, Bidauld first studied painting with his elder brother, Jean-Pierre-Xavier, in Lyons. In 1783 he traveled to Paris, there winning the favor of an art dealer and perfume seller named Dulac. This latter subsidized Bidauld's travels in Italy, where for five years he lived in Rome and traveled widely. Most of his contacts within the French artistic community in that city were history painters.

paragraph: In 1790 Bidauld returned to Paris; in 1791 he entered the Salon for the first time. Thereafter he participated regularly. In 1792 he began receiving official commissions, and in 1823 he became the first landscape painter elected to the Académie des Beaux-Arts. 1825 saw him awarded the Légion d'honneur. His reputation began to decline at about this time; as a member of the Salon jury, he was seen as blocking a new generation of landscape painters from gaining entry. Chief among these was Théodore Rousseau. Bidauld was savaged in the press, and as a result became unable to sell his work. By the time of his death, he was near penury.

paragraph: Camille Corot was among Bidauld's admirers during his career.
