paragraph: David George Ouellet

paragraph: David George Ouellet (June 13, 1944 – March 6, 1967) was a US Navy seaman, and received the Medal of Honor for his actions in the Vietnam War.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Ouellet was born in Newton, Massachusetts. After finishing school, he enlisted in the United States Navy July 28, 1964 and upon completion of his training, joined Assault Craft Division Twelve for duty in Vietnam. After five months in Vietnam, he was ordered to San Diego, California for training in river patrol boats. Upon completion of this training, he returned to Vietnam and joined River Squadron Five, My Tho Detachment 532. He was on patrol in PBR–124 on March 6, 1967 as the forward machine gunner. While patrolling near a river bank, Seaman Ouellet saw an enemy grenade coming towards his boat. He ran back towards the stern shouting for everybody to take cover and when seeing the boat captain unprotected, he pushed him down a hatch to safety. Between the split second the missile landed in the boat and exploded, Seaman Ouellet placed himself between the missile and his shipmates and absorbed the impact of the blast. As a result, Seaman Ouellet was mortally wounded. For his heroic sacrifice, he was posthumously received the Medal of Honor. He is buried at Woodlawn Cemetery in Everett, Massachusetts. His name is listed on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial on panel 16E, Row 030.

paragraph: Section::::Medal of Honor citation.

paragraph: Seaman David G. Ouellet, United States Navy, (posthumous), Seaman, U.S. Navy, River Squadron 5, My Tho Detachment 532., Mekong River, Republic of Vietnam, March 6, 1967.

paragraph: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty while serving with River Section 532, in combat against the enemy in the Republic of Vietnam. As the forward machine gunner on River Patrol Boat (PBR) 124, which was on patrol on the Mekong River during the early evening hours of March 6, 1967, Seaman Ouellet observed suspicious activity near the river bank, alerted his Boat Captain, and recommended movement of the boat to the area to investigate. While the PBR was making a high-speed run along the river bank, Seaman Ouellet spotted an incoming enemy grenade falling toward the boat. He immediately left the protected position of his gun mount and ran aft for the full length of the speeding boat, shouting to his fellow crew members to take cover. Observing the Boat Captain standing unprotected on the boat, Seaman Ouellet bounded onto the engine compartment cover, and pushed the Boat Captain down to safety. In the split second that followed the grenade's landing, and in the face of certain death, Seaman Ouellet fearlessly placed himself between the deadly missile and his shipmates, courageously absorbing most of the blast fragments with his own body in order to protect his shipmates from injury and death. His extraordinary heroism and his selfless and courageous actions on behalf of his comrades at the expense of his own life were in the finest tradition of the United States Naval Service.

paragraph: Gionatha Spinesi

paragraph: Gionatha Spinesi (born 9 March 1978 in Pisa) is an Italian former footballer who played as a forward.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Spinesi started playing for Pisa Calcio. In November 1995 he signed for Inter Milan, however, he was not able to make appearance in the first team. Sold in January 1997 to Castel di Sangro, he played two unimpressive Serie B seasons for the small Serie B team. In June 1997 he joined A.S. Bari, where he made his Serie A debut and played six seasons. In February 2004, he was released for free by Bari following clashes with the board about his contract renewal.

paragraph: In 2004–05, Spinesi played for newly promoted Serie B team Arezzo, where he scored 22 goals and won the league top scorer title. In 2005–06, Spinesi followed Siena coach Pasquale Marino in joining Catania, where he scored 23 goals and helped the team to promote to Serie A.

paragraph: In 2006–07 Spinesi kept his excellent top flight record up by notching 17 goals and ensuring Catania remained in Serie A.

paragraph: During the 2007–08 season, however, Spinesi scored only 7 goals in the league, but was still an influential part of the first team, as Catania again managed to avoid relegation. However, from 2008 onwards he failed to get back into the first team due to recurrent injuries, and he was released on June 2009. Spinesi successively announced his retirement from football, thus turning down an agreement he had previously found with Lega Pro Prima Divisione club Valle del Giovenco.

paragraph: Juan Antonio Villacañas

paragraph: Juan Antonio Villacañas (born 1922 in Toledo; died August 21, 2001) was a Spanish poet, essayist and critic. In 2015, he was named distinguished son ("hijo predilecto") of the city of Toledo.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Born in Toledo in 1922, the Civil War cut short his secondary education. Obligatory military service was carried out in places as different as Melilla and the Pyrenean Valley of Arán. In the former, he was placed in charge of the reorganisation of the Military Club library and he took advantage of the opportunity to develop an intense autodidactic process, reading avidly and widely. On returning to Toledo, he was employed by the Town Council where he was later to take charge of the area of Art and Culture, a post he held for many years. His book of poetry "Los Sapos" (1968) is an indictment of power and its abuses, where a Town Council is at the same time a reality and a metaphor of such power. In 1956, he was invited by the Belgian Academy of French language and literature to the III Bienale Internationale de Poésie de Knokke-le-Zoute (Belgium). His close friendship with the Hispanicist and poet Edmond Vandercammen dates from this period. The latter reviewed his "Conjugación Poética del Greco" in Le Journal des Poètes (1959) and translated several of Juan Antonio’s poems into French, all appearing in the said Journal (1972). Following his stay in Belgium, he was interviewed at the UNESCO in Paris where his voice was recorded for a special broadcast for Spanish America. From the 1950s onwards, the work of Juan Antonio Villacañas begins to appear in both national and international poetry anthologies. At the same time, extracts from his poetic and critical works was to appear in different journals and newspapers.

paragraph: Villacañas lived in Toledo throughout his life, remaining independent of groups and literary trends and following his own poetic and personal course. Such personal and artistic independence was to bring the toll of silence and neglect from the established groups and critical trends from the 1980s onwards.

paragraph: However, from 2001 onwards, the number of poets and critics, both Spanish and foreign, that admire Villacañas' work increases. This revival, coming after the break of these decades of the twentieth century, shows once again, the importance of Juan Antonio Villacañas. Relevant in this respect are the appreciations of such poets and critics as Emilio Porta, Pablo Luque Pinilla, Roberto Carlos Hernández Ferro, Enrique Gracia and Michael Smith.

paragraph: In 2010, the annual book fair of Toledo was dedicated to Juan Antonio Villacañas.The opening speech was said by his daughter, Beatriz Villacañas

paragraph: Section::::Works.

paragraph: Juan Antonio Villacañas wrote thirty three books of poetry, spanning a wealth of themes and forms, from free verse (as early as the 1950s) to the sonnet, from stanzas and rhymes of his own invention to the lira: Juan Antonio Villacañas infused this classical form with new and surprising content, so much so that his liras

paragraph: are now known as "Liras juanantonianas".

paragraph: To honour the maestry of Juan Antonio Villacañas regarding the lira, Juan Ruiz de Torres invented a new form deriving from this one, called decilira. In addition to poetry, he also produced an ample work of criticism and essays (these were to appear in a wide variety of publications as for instance "La Estafeta Literaria" y "Nueva Estafeta", directed by Luis Rosales) and two prose books: "Bécquer o la Poesía de Todos" (awarded the Círculo de Escritores y Poetas Iberoamericanos de Nueva York prize in 1971) y "Versómanos" (1989).

paragraph: In the latter, Villacañas exposes the falacies underlying a great part of the predominant poetry criticism of that time. Poems, reviews, short stories and writings of different types can be found in such publications as "ABC", "Poesía Española" (1ª y 2ª Épocas), "Diario Ya", "Poesía Hispánica", "Diario de León", "Le Journal des Poètes" and "El Mercurio" de Chile.

paragraph: In the seventies, Juan Antonio Villacañas explores a new way of creating: the union of poem and image to construct a unity of significance that he called “liriforma”. An exhibition of these “liriformas” took place in the Palace of Benacazón in Toledo in 1976. These “liriformas” form together, a book called "Testamento de Carnaval". Together with some other media, the periodical "La Estafeta Literaria" covered the news interviewing the author in the Nº 579, 1 January 1976.

paragraph: Jinul

paragraph: Jinul Puril Bojo Daesa (, 1158–1210), often called Jinul or Chinul for short, was a Korean monk of the Goryeo period, who is considered to be the most influential figure in the formation of Korean Seon (Zen) Buddhism. He is credited as the founder of the Jogye Order, by working to unify the disparate sects in Korean Buddhism into a cohesive organization.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Bojo Jinul's birthname was Jeong and by age 15 he left his family to ordain under Seon Master Jonghwi of the Sagulsan School, one of the nine mountain schools of Seon, receiving the ordination name "Jinul". This occurred in 1173. By 1182, Jinul passed the royal examination for monks and qualified for a higher administrative position, but turned it down to join the Seon sangha at Bojesa in Pyongyang. The community being uninterested in his efforts to reform the retreat community, he moved to Cheongwonsa at Changpyeong, then Bomunsa on Hagasan.

paragraph: During this period of travel and study, Jinul was said to have studied the entire Tripiṭaka and had a series of awakenings. Jinul sought to establish a new movement within Korean Seon which he called the "samadhi and prajñā society" (). This movement's goal was to establish a new community of disciplined, pure-minded practitioners deep in the mountains. Jinul eventually accomplished this mission with the founding of Songgwangsa on Jogyesan, and in the process the Jogye Order, which taught a comprehensive approach to Buddhism including meditation, doctrine, chanting and lectures. By 1209, he completed his magnum opus the "Excerpts from the Dharma Collection and Special Practice Record with Personal Notes" (), an extensive exploration of various schools of Chan Buddhism in China, with extensive commentaries on the writings of the Chinese monk Guifeng Zongmi as well as personal notes.

paragraph: This earned him the respect of the Goryeo, and in particular King Huijong, who ordered that Mount Songgwangsan be renamed Jogyesan in his honor. Upon his death in 1210, he was given a posthumous title of honor by King Huijong as well.

paragraph: Section::::Teachings.:Essence-Function.

paragraph: Essence-Function () is a key concept of Korean Buddhism. Essence-Function takes a particular form in the philosophy and writings of Jinul.

paragraph: Jinul viewed Nirvana as a sublime essence that is present in all beings. This essence is the very nature of Buddha and has always been present in beings. Writing on the faith in such matters held by his own school, Jinul states:

paragraph: Henry Flynt

paragraph: Henry Flynt (born 1940 in Greensboro, North Carolina) is a philosopher, avant-garde musician, anti-art activist and exhibited artist often associated with Conceptual Art, Fluxus and Nihilism.

paragraph: Section::::Background.

paragraph: Henry Flynt’s work devolves from what he calls cognitive nihilism; a concept he developed and first announced in the 1960 and 1961 drafts of a paper called "Philosophy Proper." The 1961 draft was published in Milan with other early work in his book "Blueprint for a Higher Civilization" in 1975. Flynt refined these dispensations in the essay "Is there language?" that was published as "Primary Study" in 1964.

paragraph: In 1961 Flynt coined the term concept art in the Neo-Dada, proto-Fluxus book "An Anthology of Chance Operations" (co-published by Jackson Mac Low and La Monte Young) that was released in 1963. "An Anthology of Chance Operations" contained seminal works by Fluxus artists such as George Brecht and Dick Higgins. Flynt's "concept art", he maintained, devolved from cognitive nihilism, from insights about the vulnerabilities of logic and mathematics. Drawing on an exclusively syntactical paradigm of logic and mathematics, "concept art" was meant jointly to supersede mathematics and the formalistic music then current in serious art music circles. Therefore, Flynt maintained, to merit the label "concept art", a work had to be an object-critique of logic or mathematics or objective structure."

paragraph: In 1962 Flynt began to campaign for an anti-art position. Thus he demonstrated against cultural institutions in New York City (such as MoMA and Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts) with Tony Conrad and Jack Smith in 1963 and against the composer Karlheinz Stockhausen twice in 1964. Flynt wanted avant-garde art to become superseded by the terms of "veramusement" and "brend"—neologisms meaning approximately pure recreation. Flynt read publicly from his text "From Culture to Veramusment" at Walter De Maria's loft on February 28, 1963—an act which can be considered performance art.

paragraph: From about 1980, Flynt has given a great deal of time to two endeavors which did not achieve the notoriety of the early actions: his concepts of meta-technology and personhood theory. In 1987 he revived his "concept art" for tactical reasons; and spent seven years in the art world. Following that period, Flynt began to publish recorded but unreleased musical compositions. Over 10 audio CDs have appeared as of 2007.

paragraph: Flynt's writings on a wide variety of subjects are available on his website: Henry Flynt: Philosophy

paragraph: Section::::Flynt as composer & violinist.

paragraph: Henry Flynt is also known for his musical work, often with him performing on violin, that attempted to fuse avant-garde music (particularly the hypnotic aspects of minimalism) with free-jazz, country blues, rock music and hillbilly country music.

paragraph: In 1966, he recorded several rehearsal demo tapes with Henry Flynt & The Insurrections, a garage rock and folk rock band, which were later compiled and released in 2004 on Locust Music.

paragraph: Much of Henry Flynt's subsequent recorded output has been release on the Recorded and Locust Music record labels. His first CD release was "You Are My Everlovin'/Celestial Power" on Recorded (curated by John Berndt, and initiating the "New American Ethnic Music" or NAEM series on that label), quickly followed by "Spindizzy" and "Hillbilly Tape Music" also on Recorded. Later Recorded released NAEM 4, "Ascent to The Sun." Recently, Flynt's "Glissando No. 1" was published by Recorded (2010).

paragraph: The Locust Music releases (curated and designed by Dawson Prater) showcase the full range of his musical interests from minimalism, hillbilly country and garage rock. "C Tune" (Locust, 2002) documents a 1980 live improvisation with Catherine Christer Hennix on tamboura and Flynt on electric violin. "Raga Electric: Experimental Music 1963-1971" (Locust, 2002) is the seminal anthology of Flynt's most challenging avant-garde work that includes "Raga Electric" (1966) and "Free Alto" (1964). "Back Porch Hillbilly Blues - Volume 1" (Locust, 2003), with "Acoustic Hillbilly Jive" and "Blue Sky Highway and Tyme", and "Back Porch Hillbilly Blues Volume 2" (Locust) showcase a meeting of Henry Flynt's vision of rural roots music and American minimalism. "I Don't Wanna" (Locust Music, 2004) documents a garage-punk band, the Insurrections, that Flynt led in 1966 with Walter De Maria and Paul Breslin. "Purified by the Fire" (Locust, 2005), recorded in December 1981, repeats the format of "C Tune": Catherine Christer Hennix on tamboura and Flynt on electric violin. The 41-minute raga is dominated by the languid phrases of the violin that tests the border between melodic fragments and distorted tones. The "Indian" element is the background of hypnotic tamboura drones, but Flynt's improvisation at the violin betrays the influence of jazz music."Henry Flynt & Nova'Billy" (Locust, 2007) collects material recorded between 1974 and 1975 by his rock band Nova'Billy. "Dharma Warriors" (Locust, 2008) showcases another meeting between Catherine Christer Hennix & Flynt recorded in 1980 in Woodstock, New York.

paragraph: Section::::Relationship with Fluxus.

paragraph: Because of his friendship and collaboration with La Monte Young and George Maciunas, Flynt sometimes gets linked to Fluxus. While Flynt himself describes Fluxus as his "publisher of last resort" (Flynt did permit Fluxus to publish his work, and took part in several Fluxus exhibitions) he claims no affiliation or interest in the Fluxus sensibility. In fact, he is a strong critic of the neo-Dada sensibility.

paragraph: Wonhyo

paragraph: Won Hyo (617 – April 28, 686) was one of the leading thinkers, writers and commentators of the Korean Buddhist tradition. Essence-Function (), a key concept in East Asian Buddhism and particularly Korean Buddhism, was refined in the syncretic philosophy and world view of Wonhyo.

paragraph: As one of the most eminent scholar-monks in Korean history, he was an influential figure in the development of the East Asian Buddhist intellectual and commentarial tradition. His extensive literary output runs to over 80 works in 240 fascicles, and some of his commentaries, such as those on the "Mahāyāna Mahāparinirvāṇa Sūtra" and the "Awakening of Faith in the Mahayana", became classics revered throughout China and Japan as well as Korea. In fact, his commentary on the "Awakening of Faith" helped to make it one of the most influential and intensively studied texts in the East Asian Mahāyāna tradition. Chinese masters who were heavily influenced by Wonhyo include Fazang, Li Tongxuan, and Chengguan. The Japanese monks Gyonen, Zenshu and Joto of the Kegon school were also influenced by him.

paragraph: With his life spanning the end of the Three Kingdoms of Korea and the beginning of Unified Silla, Wonhyo played a vital role in the reception and assimilation of the broad range of doctrinal Buddhist streams that flowed into the Korean peninsula at the time. Wonhyo was most interested in and affected by Buddha-nature, East Asian Yogācāra and Hwaeom thought. However, in his extensive scholarly works, composed as commentaries and essays, he embraced the whole spectrum of the Buddhist teachings which were received in Korea, including such schools as Pure Land Buddhism, East Asian Mādhyamaka and the Tiantai.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Wonhyo was born in Amnyang (押梁), nowadays the city of Gyeongsan, North Gyeongsang Province, South Korea. He had a son, Seol Chong, who is considered to be one of the great Confucian scholars of Silla.

paragraph: Wonhyo was famous for singing and dancing in the streets. While the Buddha discouraged such behaviors, his songs and dances were seen as upaya, or skillful means, meant to help save all sentient beings.

paragraph: He is thought to have founded Korea's lone riverside temple, Silleuksa, in the late 600s. While Wonhyo was in Bunhwangsa (in modern Guhwang-dong, Gyeongju), he wrote a number of books. For such strong association with Wonhyo, a research center and a shrine named Bogwangjeon hall dedicated to Wonhyo's legacy are located in Bunhwangsa.

paragraph: Section::::Contribution to commentarial tradition.

paragraph: He wrote commentaries on virtually all of the most influential Mahayana scriptures, altogether including over eighty works in over two hundred fascicles. Among his most influential works were the commentaries he wrote on the "Awakening of Faith", "Mahāparinirvāṇa Sūtra" and "Vajrasamādhi sūtra", along with his exposition on the meaning of the two hindrances, the "ijangui". These were treated with utmost respect by leading Buddhist scholars in China and Japan, and served to help in placing the "Awakening of Faith" as the most influential text in the Korean tradition.

paragraph: Section::::Teaching story.

paragraph: Wonhyo spent the earlier part of his career as a monk. In 661 he and a close friend - Uisang (625–702, founder of the Hwaeom) - were traveling to China where they hoped to study Buddhism further. Somewhere in the region of Baekje, the pair were caught in a heavy downpour and forced to take shelter in what they believed to be an earthen sanctuary. During the night Wonhyo was overcome with thirst, and reaching out grasped what he perceived to be a gourd, and drinking from it was refreshed with a draught of cool, refreshing water. Upon waking the next morning, however, the companions discovered much to their amazement that their shelter was in fact an ancient tomb littered with human skulls, and the vessel from which Wonhyo had drunk was a human skull full of brackish water. Upon seeing this, Wonhyo vomited. Startled by the experience of believing that a gruesome liquid was a refreshing treat, Wonhyo was astonished at the power of the human mind to transform reality. After this "One Mind" enlightenment experience, he abandoned his plan to go to China. He left the priesthood and turned to the spreading of the "Buddhadharma" as a layman. Because of this aspect of his character, Wonhyo ended up becoming a popular folk hero in Korea. An important result of his combined work with Uisang was the establishment of Hwaeom as the dominant stream of doctrinal thought on the Korean Peninsula.

paragraph: Section::::English translation project.

paragraph: Wonhyo's twenty-three extant works are currently in the process of being translated into English as a joint project between Dongguk University and Stony Brook University. The University of Hawaii Press is publishing them in five volumes.

paragraph: Section::::Legacy.

paragraph: The International Taekwon-Do Federation pattern "Won-Hyo" is named in Wonhyo's honor. This pattern consists of 28 movements.

paragraph: The World Taekwondo Federation has a Hyeong or pattern named Ilyeo for 9th Dan black belt which means the thought of the Buddhist priest of Silla Dynasty, Wonhyo.

paragraph: Wonhyo Bridge across the Han River in Seoul is named after him.

paragraph: Uisang

paragraph: Uisang (625–702) was one of the most eminent early Silla Korean scholar-monks, a close friend of Wonhyo (元曉).

paragraph: He traveled to China, studying at Mount Zhongnan as a student of the influential Huayan master Zhiyan (智儼) and as a senior colleague of Fazang (法藏), with whom he established a lifelong correspondence. He became an expert in Huayan (華嚴) doctrine and was the founder of the Korean Hwaeom school. Most well-known among his writings is the "Beopseongge" or "Hwaeom ilseung beopgye do "("Diagram of the Avataṃsaka Single Vehicle Dharmadhātu") (華嚴一乘法界圖). This is a commentary on his mandala-like diagram "haein do" ('Ocean Seal'), which consists of 210 Chinese characters that express the essence of the Huayan doctrine. A full translation can be found in the appendix to Odin, 1982.

paragraph: Little is known of his early life other than his father was named Hin-sin and his family name was Kim.

paragraph: He is famous for his travel to Táng China with his friend, Wonhyo. At one point they were captured by border guards and held for ten days as suspected spies but were subsequently released and expelled. Late, Wonhyo left Uisang, after unknowingly drinking water from a skull in the dark. The shock of this brought about an enlightenment experience such that he felt it was unnecessary to continue to China in search of wisdom. Dismayed, but nonetheless determined, Uisang continued on his journey eventually reaching China by sea.

paragraph: A Korean folk story relates how, when he was young, Uisang fell in love with a beautiful girl, Myo Hwa ("Delicate Flower") but she was chosen by the king of Silla to be sent as a gift to the Chinese Emperor thus thwarting their relationship. This turned Uisang to the religious life and he became a monk. Myo Hwa in desperation tried to commit suicide on the journey in China by throwing herself in the river. However, she was rescued and nursed back to health by a family who subsequently adopted her. Many years later she met Uisang on his travels to China but he explained that he was now a monk and could not go back with her to Silla as she wished. However, he said he would visit her when his studies in China were complete. This he did ten years later. Unfortunately, Myo Hwa was not at home so Uisang left her a note and hurried to get his ship back to Silla. Myo Hwa returned and realized she had just missed him and ran down to the sea to try and catch him before he left. The ship however had already left the shore and in desperation she leapt in the water. As she hit the water she was magically transformed into a dragon by the strength of her love and she was able to follow the ship back to Silla.

paragraph: Safely arrived in Silla, Uisang went on to found Buseoksa, a temple in the Gyeongsangbuk-do (North Gyeongsang) mountains. The temple name means "Floating Rock" and is derived from an incident in which Myo Hwa, as a dragon, scares away some bandits by magically raising a bolder into the air. She is said to have transformed herself into a rock to continue protecting the site and her lover, Uisang. (Story related by Sunin, 1987).

paragraph: Uisang is often referred to as the "Temple Builder" because of the number of temples he established or extended during his lifetime.

paragraph: Félicia Mallet

paragraph: Félicia Mallet (1863–1928) was a French comedian, singer and pantomime artist.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Félicia Mallet was born in Bordeaux in 1863.

paragraph: In 1887 she played the part of Giovanni Paisiello, the court composer, in the first staging of Victorien Sardou's drama "La Tosca".

paragraph: In May 1888 she appeared with the "Cercle Funambulesque" pantomime company at the Fantaisies-Parisiennes in its first evening of performances, starring in "Léandre Ambassadeur".

paragraph: Her performances with the "Cercle Funambulesque" launched her into stardom.

paragraph: In 1890 Mallet played Pierrot in a production of "L'Enfant prodigue" staged in Paris.

paragraph: In 1893 Maurice Lefèvre dedicated his book "À travers chants" to Mallet. In it he presented a defense of popular songs.

paragraph: Georges Wague made his debut as a mime in 1893. Mallet assisted him in developing his own individual style in the years that followed. Wague was an innovative mime artist who became a film actor. Mime was important in the early days of silent films since a typical mime sketch was short, did not depend on words and could easily be enhanced by music.

paragraph: Mallet appeared in 1897 at the relatively high-brow "La Bodinière" theater, where she sang "chansons brutales" after being introduced in a talk by Lefèvre. She sang "Noël de Pierrot" and "Fête des Morts", both compositions by Xavier Privas. Mallet visited London in 1897 and played Pierrot in "A Pierrot's Life" in matinees at the Prince of Wales Theatre. In 1899 Mallet was an understudy for the cabaret singer and actress Yvette Guilbert. Félicia Mallet acted in "L'Enfant prodigue" at the Phono-Cinéma-Théâtre, which opened on 28 April 1900 at the Exposition Universelle, and gave programs that featured films with manually synchronized sound tracks as well as live performances.

paragraph: Félicia Mallet died in 1928, aged about 65. According to Pierre Trimouillat she was "an incomparable mime, an impeccable story teller and an actress of the first order.

paragraph: Section::::Style.

paragraph: Mallet's style of pantomime was more human and natural than the traditional blank-faced style of Jean-Gaspard Deburau and his disciples, and more expressive of emotions. She was known for the flexibility of her face and her figure. The Irish critic and playwright George Bernard Shaw compared Mallet's 1897 performance to that of other Pierrot's, saying,

paragraph: However, although she was praised for her ability, she was not able to attract large enough audiences with pantomime alone, and also became known as a singer. Mallet often sang Aristide Bruant's songs. She and others who sang Bruant's songs tried to imitate his harsh singing style. Léon Xanrof dedicated his "Le fiacre" to Mallet, who made it one of her most popular songs in café concert performances. Mallet, Guilbert, Emma Liébel and Eugénie Buffet were pioneers of the chanson réaliste style in their popular shows.

paragraph: Section::::Selected performances.

paragraph: John Sparke (died 1640)

paragraph: John Sparke (c. 1574 – 1640) of The Friary, in the parish of St Jude, Plymouth, Devon, was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1628 to 1629.

paragraph: Section::::Origins.

paragraph: Sparke was the son of John Sparke (died 1603) of Plymouth, Devon, Mayor of Plymouth in 1583 and 1591, by his wife Juliana Cock (died 1583), daughter of Gregory Cock, mayor of Plymouth. In the 1580s John Sparke (died 1603) acquired the former Whitefriars Priory in the parish of St Jude, Plymouth (dissolved a few decades before during the Dissolution of the Monasteries), which he made his residence.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: He matriculated at Exeter College, Oxford on 13 December 1622, aged 19. He was a student of Lincoln's Inn in 1623. In 1628, probably due to the influence of his wife's family the Rashleighs, he was elected Member of Parliament for Mitchell and sat until 1629 when King Charles decided to rule without parliament for eleven years.

paragraph: Section::::Residence.

paragraph: The Sparke family's residence in Plymouth was the former Whitefriars Abbey, in the parish of St Jude, which after the Dissolution of the Monasteries was probably acquired by Giles and Gregory Iselham, who obtained possession of other ecclesiastical property in Plymouth. It was then acquired by the Sparke family, who made it their residence. From Sparke it passed to the Molesworths and Clarkes to the Beweses. The buildings were converted into a hospital for soldiers in the year 1794, when a deadly sickness was ravaging the troops detained at the port for the West India expedition. They were subsequently used as an infirmary for the troops stationed at Millbay and Frankfort Barracks. Parts were used as dwellings, but Friary Court was thenceforth never considered a fashionable address. By 1890 all had disappeared and the bulk of the site was occupied by the Friary Railway Station, now closed, of the London and South Western Railway, with another part occupied by the Roman Catholic Church of the Holy Cross.

paragraph: Section::::Marriage and children.

paragraph: In 1620 he married Deborah Rashleigh (1581–1638), a daughter of John Rashleigh (1554–1624), of Menabilly, near Fowey, in Cornwall, builder of the first mansion house at Menabilly, a shipping-merchant, MP for Fowey in 1588 and 1597, and High Sheriff of Cornwall in 1608. By his wife he had children including:

paragraph: BULLET::::- Jonathan Sparke, second son, who married Mary Basset, a daughter of Sir Robert Basset (1573–1641), MP, of Heanton Punchardon in North Devon, by whom he had a son and heir John Sparke (1636–1680), MP, of the Friary, Plymouth. Jonathan Sparke is mentioned in the Travel Journal of Cosimo III de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany (1642–1723) who was visiting Plymouth on 5 April 1669:

paragraph: Section::::Death and burial.

paragraph: He died on 17 March 1640, aged 66, and was buried in St Andrew's Church where survives his mural monument, with alabaster kneeling statues of himself and his wife, with the arms of Sparke impaling Rashleigh. It was smoke damaged during World War II bombing, and was restored and repainted in the early 1990s by Plymouth stonemason Mark Robinson. It is inscribed as follows:

paragraph: Hugo Aufderbeck

paragraph: Hugo Aufderbeck (23 March 1909 – 17 January 1981) was a Roman Catholic theologian. He served as Bishop and Apostolic Administrator in the of Erfurt-Meiningen.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Section::::Life.:Early years.

paragraph: Aufderbeck was born in , a small village in the heart of the Sauerland countryside, and located some 70 km (45 miles) to the southeast of Dortmund. He attended the local school and then studied Latin for a year with his vicar, Dr. Josef Brill. His early years were spent in a Roman Catholic environment, but he then switched to secondary school, the humanist in nearby Arnsberg. He concluded his secondary schooling in Paderborn, where he was able to board at the archbishop's boys' seminary (""Seminarium Liborianum""). It was in Paderborn, as a pupil at the city's , that on 8 March 1930 he successfully passed his school final exams.

paragraph: Remaining in Paderborn he now entered the episcopate's and studied Theology. This period also included two sabbatical semesters, in 1932/33, in Vienna and Munich. Then, from 1934 till 1936, he attended the Paderborn Catholic Priest Seminary. On 28 March 1936, in the Cathedral, Archbishop Caspar Klein ordained Hugo Aufderbeck into the priesthood.

paragraph: Following his ordination Aufderbeck became a religious teacher in Gelsenkirchen at the Lyceum. In 1937 he began to study at the University of Münster for a higher level teaching qualification. This was cut short in 1938 when the course was closed under pressure from the government. Aufderbeck now relocated to the eastern part of the large Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Paderborn: he became vicar of the provost's parish of in Halle, also becoming a student chaplain for the city.

paragraph: Section::::Life.:Wartime.

paragraph: In 1940 he took on pastoral responsibilities for soldiers in the Halle region, having already since September 1939 been creating a "Soldiers' Circle", in which regular soldiers, regardless of rank, met together. Using the military mail service he had built up and sustained a massive correspondence, which by Easter 1945 and the end of the war had involved several thousand soldiers. Mistrusted by the Gestapo, he was subject to house-searches and interrogation sessions, and by the end of the war at constant risk of arrest and punishment.

paragraph: During the war Aufderbeck was in contact with the resistance group around Prof. Theodor Lieser. As the end approached Halle was occupied by US troops on 17 April 1945, and Theodor Lieser was installed by them as the city's Lord Mayor. Although Halle was liberated by Americans, by the time war ended zones of occupation had been agreed which placed Halle in the Soviet occupation zone in what remained of Germany, and in July 1945 the Americans withdrew and were replaced by the Red army. Both under US occupation and under the longer period of Soviet administration which followed, Aufderbeck focused on youth work. He was a member of the "Archbishop's Council for Imperiled Youth" (""Erziehungsbeirats für gefährdete Jugendliche"") and of the "Advisory Council for Public Youth Support". He was the Roman Catholic representative in liaison with the newly formed Free German Youth (FDJ / "Freie Deutsche Jugend"). The FDJ was the youth wing of the recently renamed and reconstituted ruling party in this part of Germany, which by the later 1940s was in the process of reverting to one-party dictatorship. In 1947 Aufderbeck was appointed by Wilhelm Weskamm, the episcopal commissioner (who later became the Bishop of Berlin) as the permanent representative of the Archbishop's Commission for Youth Work in the Province of Saxony. The context for these developments, and for much of Aufdebeck's subsequent career, was the political frontier which since 1945 had divided the eastern half of the Paderborn archdiocese from Paderborn itself. Although this secular border was initially thoroughly porous, it would become progressively less so after the reinvention, formally in October 1949, of the Soviet occupation zone as the new Soviet sponsored German Democratic Republic. Because of the way in which FDJ activity was ever more overtly blended into the increasingly ubiquitous political activity of the ruling SED (party), Aufderbeck's contacts with the FDJ were fairly soon abandoned.

paragraph: Section::::Life.:Soviet occupation zone / German Democratic Republic.

paragraph: In 1948 made Aufderbeck responsible for building up and directing spiritual support on behalf of the Archdiocesan Commission. The political division of Germany was becoming accepted as a permanent aspect of the post-war legacy. Within this political reality Aufderbeck and Weskamm, and then Weskamm's successor created an increasingly separate structure for the eastern part of the Paderborn archdiocese, and in the process constructed an important spiritual and administrative focus for the Roman Catholic church in the German Democratic Republic. Of particular importance are Aufderbeck's efforts regarding liturgical renewal, the "priestless" offices in remoter areas, with Communion celebrated by members of the laity, and his work at preparing priests and believers for ideological confrontation with Communism.

paragraph: In 1955 he became a member of the Liturgical Commission of the Fulda Bishops' Conference of Pastoral Theologians in the German speaking lands. In 1956, at the invitation of the German Liturgical Institute, he took part in the first international Pastoral Liturgical Congress, held at Assisi. In 1958 he was appointed a Papal chamberlain and in 1959 a Papal Honorary Prelate. On 19 June 1962 The Pope appointed Aufderbeck Titular bishop of "Arca in Phonicia" and an Auxiliary bishop with his base in Erfurt. The sudden erection in August 1961 of the Berlin Wall had made it clearer than ever that the eastern part of the Paderborn archdiocese could no longer be administered from Paderborn. Aufderbeck received his episcopal ordination on 5 September 1962 from Archbishop of Berlin (later Cardinal) Alfred Bengsch.

paragraph: Section::::Life.:Death.

paragraph: Aufderbeck became aware of his incurable cancer in 1977. He signed his last will on 15 December 1980. He died on 17 January 1981 in the Erfurt .

paragraph: Nikolaos Himonas

paragraph: Nikolaos Himonas (Greek: Νικόλαος Χειμώνας. Russian: Николай Петрович Химона; 25 September 1864, Yevpatoria - 1 August 1929, Skyros) was a painter and art teacher of Greek ancestry who was born in Russia and spent most of his life there. His name may also be transcribed in English as Heimonas or Cheimonas.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: His father was a retired army sergeant from the Greek Battalion of Balaklava who had fought in the defense of Sebastopol during the Crimean War. His mother was descended from the Pontic Greeks who received asylum in Russia after the Russo-Turkish War of 1768–74. He grew up in Yalta, where the family was engaged in commercial enterprises, and received a well-rounded education.

paragraph: Later, he attended the Saint Petersburg Art and Industry Academy then, in 1889, began auditing classes at the Imperial Academy of Arts, where his teachers included Ivan Shishkin and Arkhip Kuindzhi, with whom he became a lifelong friend. He graduated in 1897 and was able to travel with a group of Kuindzhi's students to Berlin, Dresden, Vienna and Paris.

paragraph: In 1902, against her father's wishes, he married Olga Khitrova, a young woman from an old noble family who was only seventeen. Two years later, he made his first trip to Greece and stayed for a year. He taught painting at the "Imperial Society for the Encouragement of the Arts" from 1897 until 1919. From 1900, he was the Inspector there, and became a full member in 1909, the year that he helped create the "Kuindzhi Artists' Society". In 1916, he was named an Academician.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Leaving Russia.

paragraph: In 1919, during the Russian Civil War, Olga was denounced and arrested by the new government for transferring messages written by political prisoners. His attempts to free her failed, and only served to make his situation dangerous, so he sought refuge with relatives in Crimea and, when the opportunity arose, emigrated to Greece. After arriving, he spent several years travelling throughout the Peloponnese, Crete, and the islands on the west coast, painting landscapes and architectural sites. Eventually, due to her father's influence, Olga was freed and, with some searching, was able to rejoin him. After that, she essentially became his manager.

paragraph: In 1929, they settled on Skyros, where he became ill with malaria and died, due to an incorrect diagnosis and improper treatment. Later that year, Olga presented a major retrospective of his works in Athens and, the following year, in London. Some sources indicate that he actually died in London, but this apparently derives from his frequent visits there to exhibit, and to confusion with Olga who did, in fact, die there in 1963.
