paragraph: Frederick of Blankenheim

paragraph: Frederick of Blankenheim (c. 1355 – Castle Ter Horst (Loenen), 9 October 1423) was bishop of Strasbourg from 1375 to 1393 as Friedrich II, and bishop of Utrecht from 1393 to 1423 as Frederik III.

paragraph: Section::::Strasbourg and Utrecht.

paragraph: Frederik van Blankenheim studied law in Paris and was named bishop of Strasbourg in 1375. His reign was not a success, and with help from William I of Guelders and Jülich he was transferred to Utrecht, where he proved to be an able ruler. Supported by the "Lichtenbergers" faction, he managed to maintain his rights over the cities in the bishoprics, the local nobility and the surrounding counties of Holland and Guelders. He strengthened ecclesiastical authority in the Oversticht and forced the city of Groningen to recognise his authority. In 1407 he granted city rights to Coevorden.

paragraph: Section::::Wars.

paragraph: As ally of William VI, Count of Holland, he took part in the Arkel-war of 1406, through which he gained possession of Hagestein. The Hollandic faction-struggle around Jacqueline, Countess of Hainaut forced the aged bishop to fight a war with Holland and Guelders from 1419 to 1422, in which the bishopric was barely able to keep itself standing.

paragraph: Section::::Church matters.

paragraph: Frederik did not personally deal with churchely matters, instead letting a well-organised administration deal with it. His suffragan bishop was Hubertus Schenck (titular bishop of Hippus in Palestine).

paragraph: He was a protector of the Modern Devotion, embodied in the Brethren of the Common Life.

paragraph: Section::::Death.

paragraph: Frederik van Blankenheim died on October 9, 1423 and was buried in the Dom Church.

paragraph: John of Epiphania

paragraph: John of Epiphania () was a late sixth century Byzantine historian.

paragraph: John was born in Epiphania (modern Hama, Syria). He was a Christian and served as a legal counselor to the Patriarch of Antioch, Gregory (ca. 590). John was also a cousin of the church historian Evagrius Scholasticus.

paragraph: John obviously received good training. In his role as legal adviser, he was a witness to the Persian king, Khosrau Parvez's retreat into Roman territory, and may have even met the king. Khosrau was restored to the Persian throne by the Roman emperor Maurice. John may have also visited Persia (cf. Fragment 1)

paragraph: John wrote a history of the Byzantine-Persian wars; from the campaigns of Khosrau I against Justin II, to the flight of his grandson Khosrau II to the Byzantines. The work is lost, but a fragment is preserved. The history was used by Evagrius and Theophylact Simocatta. As with many other Byzantine works, it is written in an archaic form of Greek, meant to imitate the classical style (e.g. Thucidydes).

paragraph: Yanassi

paragraph: Yanassi was a prince during the 15th Dynasty of Egypt. He was the "eldest king's son" of the Hyksos pharaoh Khyan and this title suggests that he was the crown prince, designated to be his successor. Nevertheless, Khyan was succeeded by Apophis who, for this reason, is believed to have been an usurper.

paragraph: Section::::Attestations.

paragraph: In spite of his status as the royal son of the long-reigning Khyan, Yanassi is not attested by any scarab seals but only by a damaged stela (Cairo TD-8422 [176]) found at Tell el-Dab'a, site of the ancient Hyksos capital, Avaris. On the stela – which was probably dedicated to the god "Seth, lord of Avaris" – he is called the "eldest king's son" of Khyan.

paragraph: A further, though non-contemporary attestation may be found in Josephus' polemic, "Contra Apionem". Claiming to directly quote Manetho, Josephus put a king named Iannas instead of Siaan (the latter being a Greek form of the name "Khyan") within the 15th Dynasty, ascribing to him a reign lasting for 51 years and one month. It has been suggested that the name "Iannas" () is a corruption of "Yanassi". If true, this means that Manetho would have considered Yanassi as a king, a statement refuted by modern consensus which considers Apophis as Khyan's direct successor. It appears more likely that, in a Manethonian passage mentioning both Iannas/Yanassi and Siaan/Khyan, Josephus erroneously chose the former instead of the latter.

paragraph: Barthélemy de Laffemas

paragraph: Bartholomew Laffemas was an economist, born in Beausemblant, France in 1545. He is officially record as dying in Paris in 1612. However, it is rumoured that he actually died on September 23, 1611, after falling from his horse. He is known as the first person to write about underconsumption

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:Beginnings.

paragraph: His father was Isaac de Laffemas (1583 - 1657). Coming from the gentry Protestant, poor, he worked and became a tailor. He left the Dauphiné and went to Navarre. There he met Henry of Navarre, the future Henry IV of France.

paragraph: Then, in 1576, he became a "silver merchant" for the king. In 1579, the king owes his supplier 483 491 pounds. He had to borrow the money for his business, paid in annuities. In a memoir, Laffemas wrote that he lifted "..the silverware shop of the king, and borrowed over two hundred thousand crowns ...". These annuities are not as good and he was pursued by the creditors, and imprisoned for debt. When Henry of Navarre became King of France he was freed.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:General of Trade.

paragraph: In 1596, in his "memory to draw Manufactures and works of the kingdom", it proposes to extend the guilds and develop the chambers of trade. He also advises to reduce imports and develop royal factories, supported by the state. Henry partly supports this program.

paragraph: In 1598 Laffemas continued writing his ideas on trade and manufacture. Writing his ideas may have been required to receive support from Henry IV. They acted as a balance to those of Sully, more interested in agriculture. In the same year Laffemas published "Les Trésors et richesses pour mettre l'Estat en splendeur", which blasted those who frowned on French silks because the industry created employment for the poor. This is the first known mention of Underconsumption Theory, which is later refined by John Maynard Keynes.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.:New letters.

paragraph: New letters patent of July 20, 1602 ordered the Commission to assemble regularly to attend to the execution of previous orders required by the body and communities of merchants.

paragraph: He received the king, 15 November 1602. He advocated the mercantilism and encouraged the development of trade and manufacturing, differing in this from the Minister Sully, which emphasized the agriculture. He had a great influence in the areas of labor, economic and social organization and a leading role in the history of silk in Europe.

paragraph: The committee concludes its meetings on October 22, 1604.

paragraph: The political economy project of Henry IV of France based on the spread of plantations and silk industry followed Laffemas's advice. He was helped by the Protestant agronomist Olivier de Serres, a Protestant figure and author of a famous thesis on "The collection of Silk". He also got help from François Traucat, a native gardener of Nîmes. Traucat was the originator of the intensive mulberry plantations in the South of France, he planted four million in mulberry bushes in Provence and Languedoc.

paragraph: In 1602, a Royal Decision requires every parish in the country to own a mulberry bush nursery and silk. In Paris, the Gobelins manufactory is created and the Bois de Boulogne a silkworm is built surrounded by 15,000 mulberry trees.

paragraph: This is also the time when the first river navigation channel is dug, the Briare Canal, while the Dutch capital is put to use to dry part of the Marais Poitevin, using as at the Flemish engineers refugee brand new Netherlands, first Protestant republic in Europe.

paragraph: For domestic trade, Bartholomew Laffemas emphasizes the rehabilitation and development of roads and bridges, waterways, creating service letter post. For foreign trade, source of wealth, it grows to transit trade and warehousing, trade with the Levant, the colonial trade with the creation of large French East India Company and Western.

paragraph: With the end of the Royal Commission in 1604, implementation of manufacturing projects will also stop at the image of that which was to be built north of the Place Royale, in Paris. In 1608, Bartholomew Laffemas complains in a treaty that his advice was ignored. The development of silk manufactures stopped and France resumed imports.

paragraph: Section::::Nobility.

paragraph: In the marriage contract of his son, passed November 10, 1608, BARTHELMY is called noble. It is not known how Bartholomew became noble because it is unclear whether his father, Isaac, was. The ennoblement Bartholomew had to be acquired in return for his services.

paragraph: Section::::Publications.

paragraph: Laffemas had a large number of publications about his ideas on trade and enriching the kingdom.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Source de plusieurs abus et monopoles qui se sont glissez et coulez sur le peuple de France, depuis trente ans ou environ, à la ruyne de l'Estat, dont il se trouve moyen par un règlement général d'empescher à l'advenir tel abus, présenté au Roy et à nosseigneurs de l'assemblée" (1596)

paragraph: Consuelo Zavala

paragraph: Consuelo Zavala Castillo (1874-1956) was a Mexican feminist teacher, and founder of one of the first secular private schools in Mérida, Mexico. She is credited with establishing the first kindergarten to utilize the Froebel method in Mérida. She was the organizer of the First Feminist Congress in Mexico authorized by state governor Salvador Alvarado.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Consuelo Zavala Castillo was born in 1874 in Mérida, Yucatán, Mexico. She studied at the "Instituto Literario de Niñas" (ILN) (Literary Institute for Girls) under the feminist teachings of Rita Cetina Gutiérrez. She graduated at the age of 23 with a degree in elementary and higher education. After teaching at various schools in the state in 1902 founded her own school basing the curriculum on secular, scientific education methods. In 1904, Zavala participated in the 5th General Congress on Primary Education.

paragraph: In 1906, she established the first professional kindergarten in Yucatán, following the Frobel principals. In 1912, she was commissioned to study in France by president Francisco I. Madero to learn more about European educational models.

paragraph: She was President of the Board of Directors for the Organizing Committee of the First Feminist Congress in Mexico held in 1916, driven by the Governor of Yucatán, Salvador Alvarado. Numerous topics were discussed at the January meeting, but at the center of the discussion was suffrage and political involvement of all citizens, followed by women's education and women's roles as wives, mothers and their rights to divorce. A storm of controversy resulted when Hermila Galindo's paper advocating sexual education and female sexuality was read. When the second congress was held in December of that same year, Zavala who had been surprised by the amount of anti-feminist feeling that emanated from the first congress, did not attend.

paragraph: In 1922, Zavala helped found the Feminist League of Yucatán, as part of the Socialist Party of the Southeast with Elvia Carrillo Puerto, Raquel Dzib Cicero, Rosa Torre González, Beatríz Peniche de Ponce and Adolfina Valencia.

paragraph: Zavala died 22 June 1956 in Mérida.

paragraph: There are six schools in Mexico that bear her name: three in the city of Mérida, one in Akil, Yucatán, one in Kanasín and one in Tizimín.

paragraph: Samuel Pegge

paragraph: Samuel Pegge the elder (5 November 1704 – 14 February 1796) was an antiquary.

paragraph: Born at Chesterfield, Derbyshire, he was the son of Christopher Pegge and his wife Gertrude, daughter of Francis Stephenson of Unstone, near Chesterfield. Christopher Pegge (died 1723) belonged to a family that had lived for several generations at Osmaston, near Ashbourne, Derbyshire, was a woollen dealer in Derby and later a lead merchant in Chesterfield. Samuel's father was Mayor of Chesterfield three times. Samuel published an important study on the Roman roads of Derbyshire as well as notes which his son, also Samuel, continued on the subject of Derbyshire words and phrases.

paragraph: Section::::Education.

paragraph: Samuel Pegge was educated at Chesterfield and he became a pensioner and scholar of St. John's College, Cambridge, in 1722. He graduated B.A. 1725, M.A. 1729. He was elected to a lay fellowship on the Beresford foundation of his college on 21 March 1726, but was removed in favour of Michael Burton (afterwards vice-master of St. John's), who claimed founder's kin. Pegge was then made an honorary fellow, and in 1729 was elected a ' Platt ' fellow of St. John's. In 1730 he was elected a member of the Spalding Society, to which he contributed some papers, and from 1730 to 1732 belonged to the Zodiac Club, a college literary society consisting of twelve members denominated by the signs of the zodiac. Pegge was the original Mars.

paragraph: Section::::Vicar and antiquary.

paragraph: Pegge was ordained in 1729, and in 1730 became curate to Dr. John Lynch at Sundridge in Kent. On 6 December 1731 he became the vicar of Godmersham, Kent, where he lived for about twenty years, writing on antiquities and collecting books and coins. From 1749 to 1751 he lived at Surrenden, again in Kent, as tutor to the son of Sir Edward Dering. In 1751 he was elected fellow of the Society of Antiquaries, and in the same year was inducted into the rectory of Old Whittington, near Chesterfield, exchanging Godmersham for the rectory of Brinhill (or Brindle), Lancashire. On 22 Oct. 1758 he exchanged Brinhill for the vicarage of Heath, near Whittington, holding Heath together with Whittington until his death.

paragraph: In 1765 he was presented to the perpetual curacy of Wingerworth, near Whittington.

paragraph: He was a prebendary of Lichfield (1757–1796), and in 1772 was collated to a stall in

paragraph: Lincoln Cathedral. In 1791 he was created LL.D. by the University of Oxford. He died, after a fortnight's illness, on 14 February 1796 at age 92. He was buried in the chancel at Whittington, where a mural tablet was installed. His small collection of English coins and medals were sold by auction on 23 March 1797.

paragraph: Section::::Family.

paragraph: On 13 April 1732, Pegge married Anne (d. July 1746), daughter of Benjamin Clarke of Stanley, near Wakefield, Yorkshire, and they had three children : Christopher (died in infancy), Samuel (the younger), and Anna Katharine, wife of the Rev. John Bourne of Spital, near Chesterfield. A portrait of Pegge, drawn by Gustavus Brander, and engraved by James Basire, is prefixed to Pegge's Forme of Cury (see illustration above) however there was an oil painting of him (reputed a better likeness) by Elias Needham.

paragraph: Section::::Contributions.

paragraph: Pegge contributed to the first ten volumes of the "Archaeologia" memoirs on a great variety of topics, such as Anglo-Saxon jewellery ; the introduction of the vine into Britain; the stylus: King Alfred; the bull-running at Tutbury; the horn as a charter or instrument of conveyance; shoeing horses among the ancients ; cock-fighting; the right of sanctuary; the manner of King John's death ; Kit's Coty House ; the commencement of day among the Saxons and Britons; ' the mistaken opinion that Ireland and the Isle of Thanet are void of Serpents and prehistoric remains generally. He wrote seven memoirs in the Bibliotheca Topographica Britannica, including "The Story of Guy, Earl of Warwick" (1783); "The History of Eccleshall Manor" (1784); "The Roman Roads of Derbyshire" (1784); "The Textus Roffensis " (1784) ; "History of Bolsover and Peak Castles, Derbyshire" (1783). He also wrote a large number of articles for the Gentleman's Magazine from 1746 to 1795, signing himself ' Paul Gemsege - an anagram of Samuel Pegge), "T. Row" ( = The Rector Of Whittington), and 'L. E.' ( = [Samue]L [Pegg]E) . While vicar of Godmersham Pegge made collections relating to Kent, including a ' Monasticon Cantianum ' in two folio manuscript volumes, and an account of the antiquities of Wye.
