Documentary Films Today,<mask> stated: “The purpose of the First Amendment is supposedly getting at the truth, but the lack of defamation protection for an individual no longer living isn’t helpful in that regard. If copyright protection is life plus 75 years, there’s no reason a defamation suit shouldn’t be life plus 20, 30 or even 40 years.”

<mask> (28 December 1842 - 9 July 1920) - in religious Angelico - was an Italian Roman Catholic priest and a professed member from the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin who founded the Franciscan Sisters of the Lord. Lipani settled on the religious life (despite his parents insisting he become a diocesan priest instead) but later joined the Franciscans after his parents relented; he did his religious formation as well as his theological and philosophical studies in Palermo where he was ordained in 1865. But new legislation forced religious orders to dissolve and he instead began to serve as a teacher in Caltanissetta for over two decades before being given a parish church to renovate and act from. He later was able to help restore his order in the region and founded a religious congregation dedicated to tending to the poor. The beatification process for Lipani had opened in the late 1990s in the Caltanissetta diocese and he became titled as a Servant of God; he became titled as Venerable in mid-2019 after Pope Francis confirmed that Lipani had practiced heroic virtue throughout his life. Life
<mask> was born on 28 December 1842 in Caltanissetta as the sixth of eight children born to <mask> and Calogera Raitano. He was baptized on his birthdate in his local parish church.His siblings (in order) were:
 Pietro

 Michelangelo
 Damiana
 Teresa
He received his Confirmation in 1849 from the first Bishop of Caltanissetta Antonino Maria Stromillo. He had expressed a desire to become a priest in a religious congregation despite his parents opposing that idea. His parents suggested to him that it would be better that he enter the diocesan priesthood so that he could remain in his hometown; this was important to them more so since his brother Pietro - a diocesan priest - died not long after his ordination in their

texts: hometown due to bronchopneumonia. But Lipani had settled on the religious life and it was strong enough that his parents later relented and gave him their blessing. Lipani entered the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin at their convent in Caccamo near Palermo to commence his novitiate period on 23 October 1861; he received the habit and also assumed the religious name of "Angelico". He completed his novitiate period on 24 October 1862 and made his initial profession that December before he was transferred to Palermo to undergo his philosophical and theological studies under the Jesuits. He made his solemn profession on 23 October 1865 and received his elevation to the diaconate on 1 November 1865 from Bishop Agostino Franco.<mask> received his ordination to the priesthood on 3 December 1865 from Archbishop Domenico Maria Ciluffo e Costa. <mask> decided to remain in Palermo so that he could complete his studies. But his time in the religious life would be short lived since legislation was enforced not long after his ordination that suppressed religious congregations. This forced him to set aside his habit and leave the convent and take up the diocesan clerical cassock. He placed himself under the direction of the Bishop of Caltanissetta Giovanni Battista Guttardauro and awaited his next assignment. He obtained permission from the bishop in 1868 to preach and began to dedicate himself to the spiritual direction and material assistance of the Third Order Franciscans in the area while in 1874 being assigned to teach Latin grammar to seminarians which he did until 1899. During this period he had helped to form three future bishops as well as a prominent medical professor and the future canon Michele Gerbino (whom he would later collaborate with towards the end of his life).The bishop also made him the rector for a small church on the diocese's

In September 1883 he acquired several houses that he renovated for the families of the sulphur miners that died in the mine collapses in Gessolungo in 1881 and Tumminelli in 1882. In October 1884 he worked with twelve orphans to pick out a house for them while aiding two women in becoming professed religious. This formed the basis for his religious congregation that he founded on 15 October 1885 called the Franciscan Sisters of the Lord. The order received diocesan approval from Bishop Ignazio Zuccaro while the Countess Adelaide Testasecca became a great benefactor for the order and would provide art pieces to them. Lipani also promoted Catholic publishing through the Svegliarino dei Terziari Francescani publication that began in December 1879 and was published each month; he wrote articles himself to explain the Third Order Franciscans as well as other spiritual topics. He also was a big promoter of social justice initiatives in favor of the poor and ministered to those who were poor in the area.In 1899 the bishop gave him the San Michele alle Calcare convent to replenish the order in that region in gratitude for his work as a teacher and among the poor. In September 1912 his health started to decline and so he attained permission from the Provincial Minister for permission to live with his two sisters at home. His sisters Damiana and Teresa looked after him. <mask> died in mid-1920 at his home and since 19 October 1947 his remains are housed in his old church after his remains were transferred from a grave at Santa Maria degli Angeli. The decree of praise came from Pope Pius XII - himself a Third Order Franciscan - on 7 December 1950 and full papal approval for his order came from

 Pope John XXIII - also a Third Order Franciscan - on 30 August 1960. In late 2008 his order had 310 sisters in 54 houses in places such as the Philippines while their general headquarters is located in Rome. Beatification process
The beatification process for the late priest launched on 30 June 1997 after the Congregation for the Causes of Saints titled Lipani as a Servant of God and issued the official "nihil obstat" (no objections) edict that declared no impediments would prevent the cause being launched.The Caltanissetta diocese launched a diocesan process of investigation on 11 October 1997 and later closed it on 9 July 2001; the C.C.S. in Rome validated this process on 2 May 2008 after determining it completed its work and adhered to C.C.S. rules for conducting causes. The postulation (officials in charge of the cause) submitted the official Positio dossier to the C.C.S. on 23 February 2016 for evaluation. Nine theologians issued their unanimous approval to the cause on 17 January 2019 as did the C.C.S. cardinal and bishop members later on 18 June 2019.<mask> became titled as Venerable on 5 July 2019 after Pope Francis confirmed that the late priest had practiced heroic virtue throughout his life to a sufficient degree. The current postulator for this cause is the Capuchin priest Carlo Calloni. References

texts:
Clotilde-<mask> (November 21, 1871 – June 7, 1946)  was a French scientist primarily known for her discovery with her mentor Paul Carnot of Hémopoïétine" (erythropoietin). She also pioneered work that led to the development of organ transplantation. She was the first woman in France to receive both a "docteur en médicine” (doctorate in medicine) and a docteur ès naturel sciences (doctorate in natural sciences). Early life and education
Deflandre was born in the 7th arrondissement of Paris on November 21, 1871. Her father, Gustave Edouard Deflandre (1851-1909) was a railroad employee,  a composer of religious music, and an organist at Dom Rue Simart 3 in Paris. Her mother, Marie Eugénie Giboz (1848-1938), was born in Autouillet, a commune in the Yvelines department of Northern France. She was working as a shop clerk at the time of her marriage to Deflandre in Paris on Sept 14, 1871.The Deflandres had three children, Jules Gustave (1870-1921), Clotilde and Georges Edouard  (1876- ). Jules Gustave was the father of the paleogeologist <mask> (1897-1973). Career and research
In 1895, Mlle. Deflandre was working in the laboratory of Augustin Nicolas Gilbert at the hospital Broussais in Paris with Carnot. Her study, examining the ability of skin grafts from black guinea pigs to persist in white guinea pigs, had a profound effect on the modern field of organ transplantation and was cited byPeter Medawar winner of the 1960 Nobel Prize for his work on immunocompetence. Medawar referring to her paper stated that ”it has been known for fifty years that if black guinea pig skin is grafted to a white area on the same animal, a process that may non-committally

Conversely, white skin grafted to a black area in due course blackens.”   He formulated the hypothesis that differentiated cells in the adult organism “breed true and preserve forever in cellular inheritance their specificity of histological type", an important concept that led to the further development of tissue transplantation.In 1903, Mlle. <mask> received a docteur-ès-sciences from the University of Lille on “Fonction adipogénique du foie dans la série animale” (The adipogenic function of the liver in a series of animals) again with Carnot and Gilbert in Paris. She was only the fourth woman to receive a docteur-ès-sciences in France. The others included the astronomer Dorothea Klumpke, Mlle. Rodeau- Lozeau and the Nobel Prize winner, Marie Curie. Deflandre's work grew out of the interest of 19th century biologists, especially Claude Bernard, on the metabolic functions of the liver. She methodically studied adipo -hepatic function in a series of invertebrates and vertebrates.She also examined the ability of a fatty liver to repair damage from drugs such as cocaine

After working as a school teacher at the Collège de Jeunes Filles in Rouen, Mlle. Deflandre resumed her studies for her docteur en médicine. Carnot and Gilbert had a long-standing interest in opotherapy— the use of an organ extract to replace a missing humoral factor. Carnot's quest for a hematopoietic stimulating substance found in blood was firmly in this tradition. Working again with Carnot in Gilbert's laboratory, Deflandre set out to determine the factors that control red blood

Late in her career and after her marriage to Dr. Léon Dufour,  Deflandre began a collaboration with Gaston Roussel (1877-1947) at the Roussel-Uclaf laboratories, one of the forerunner companies of Sanofi. Roussel had trained as a veterinarian and received a doctorate in medicine at the University of Paris. While there, he became acquainted with the work of Carnot and Deflandre, repeated their initial experiments and then used horses to scale up production of hémopoïtine for commercial use. His first product, Hemostyl, was widely used until the 1950s for treatment of anemia. Gaston and Deflandre (as Dufour-Deflandre) published a series of studies on the mineral content of embryonic materials as part of the continuing work of the Roussel laboratories to isolate active agents from organs for clinical use, again guided by the principles of opotherapy.Roussel Laboratories was among the first to produce steroid hormones for medical use. Personal life
Deflandre married Dr. Léon Adolphe Dufour on the 8th of November in 1921 in the 18th arrondissement in Paris. Dufour was a pioneer in infant nutrition working primarily in Fécamp in Normandy. He was the founder of the “Goutte de lait” (Drop of milk), an organization that devised safer methods of infant feeding to reduce childhood mortality  Dufour died on May 23, 1928. Deflandre was also the aunt of <mask> (1897-1973), a noted paleo geologist. Mme. Dufour-Deflandre died at 74 on June 7, 1946 in Paris.She was buried in Eglise St. Etienne in Fécamp on June 13, 1946.

I composed with the band in mind, utilizing each of their personal musical strengths."Although <mask> has not released a solo album, she has recorded full-length albums with musical groups: 101 North, Gene Dunlap Band, and Twennynine. Her music is generally R&B, but she has written songs for other musical artists that incorporates pop, soul, rock, disco, and funk into the music. She is also fluent in singing Italian and Japanese.

<mask> (22 March 1807 – 9 January 1881) was a British merchant. He moved to Ballincollig in 1863 to become managing director of Ballincollig Royal Gunpowder Mills. He played an active part in the social and industrial life of Ballincollig and Cork until his death in 1881. Tobins of Liverpool
The Tobins were an important merchant family in Liverpool at a time when the city was rapidly expanding at the end of the 18th and beginning of the 19th centuries. <mask>'s grandfather, Patrick, was a native of Ireland and lived on the Isle of Man. Two of Patrick's sons, John and <mask>, became apprentice seamen and later master mariners. They both built their prosperity on the slave trade later branching into palm oil and ivory.They had estates in Africa which employed many black people. After the emancipation many of these slaves came to England, and it was not uncommon to see coloured people in Liverpool who bore a mark identifying them as having once been on the servitude of the Tobins. John became Mayor of Liverpool in 1819 and was knighted on the ascension of George IV to the throne. On 19 July 1821, George IV's Coronation Day, Prince's Dock was opened, and the Tobins ship, May, was the first ship which entered and in honour of the occasion she was exempted from paying Town or Dock Dues. <mask>' father and family
On 6 June 1806, John's brother, <mask>, married Esther Watson, daughter of Richard Watson of Preston in Preston Church. They took up residence in Bold Street in Liverpool. At that time Bold Street had not become a shopping street but consisted of dwelling houses of well-to-do merchants, many of whom had their counting houses at the back.About halfway up the street <mask>, senior, lived in a fine house with a counting house behind. <mask>, senior, had a large family-six boys and six girls. The eldest of these were also called <mask> after his father and he was born

 on 22 March 1807, and was baptised in St. Peter's Church, Church Street, on 26 June 1807. Very little is known about the young <mask>' upbringing, except, as the oldest son, he naturally became involved in his father's business. Powder mills
In 1833–34, Tobin and company of Liverpool purchased the dilapidated powder mills in Ballincollig from the British Board of Ordnance. <mask> junior was involved in inspecting the buildings before the purchase was concluded for £15,00. With the renovation and the opening of the mills, <mask> junior was sent to Ballincollig by his father to become managing director of the mills.It seems unusual that <mask>, as the oldest son, was not kept in Liverpool to inherit the family in the business. But in the mid-1830s <mask> was the only son available to go to Ballincollig. One son had died at six months, a second was in the Army, a third was not yet twenty, while the fourth, James Aspinall, who later took over to Liverpool business, was only seventeen. It is clear <mask> took an active interest in the running of the mills, which grew rapidly. He is credited with making Ballincollig "almost a model village". In March 1806, on his retirement from his position as managing director, he was presented with "'a magnificent piece of plate' by the supervisors and workmen, a small token of their deep regret…. And of their gratitude for the kindness and humanity with which he always exercised his authority".Family
Shortly after taking up his position as managing director in 1835, <mask> married Catherine Ellis, daughter of Lister Ellis of Crofthead, Cumberland, on 12 September 1835. They had one child, a son, Arthur Lionel, who was born in Ballincollig on 7 August 1837. Arthur became a lieutenant in the 23rd Royal Welch Fusiliers with whom he served in the Crimean War and in the Indian Mutiny. He was wounded in the thigh while fighting at the

 capture of Kaiserbogh, Lucknow (16 March 1858) and died on 12 October 1858. He was buried near Lucknow. Saddened by the death of their only son and child at 21 years of age, Tobin presented a stained glass window to St. Peter's Church, Carrigohane, to commemorate his son. He also presented a memorial to the Royal Welsh Fusiliers and endowed a boat in his son's name with the Royal National Lifeboat Institution of which Tobin himself was the local representative.Oriel House
<mask> and Catherine lived in Oriel House, Ballincollig, from 1835. But in the early 1850s he rented the castle in Ballincollig and intended to have it 'repaired and protected from further decay'. He also intended to have the grounds around it "tastefully planted". Instead, in the mid-1850s he seemed to live for a while in Bridepark, Ovens. However, after that he lived in the Oriel House until his death in 1881. Travel and antiquities

<mask> and Catherine had a common interest in travel and in the antiquities of the middle and Near East. <mask> was elected member of the Royal Society of Northern Antiquaries, Copenhagen (1849), a fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London (1853), and a member of the Royal Irish Academy (1869).<mask> and Catherine travelled to North Africa, the Levant and Palestine. In February 1856, he lectured in the Athenium (Opera House) on 'Egypt, Past and Present', an account of a visit Cairo and a journey along the Nile. He concluded that the Turkish empire was doomed and speculated on Egypt's future. George Kelleher has suggested, however, that while <mask> was an 'antiquarian and curio collector in the spirit of the Victorian age', his wife Catherine, 'was a far more considerable cultural figure'. Her interest in antiquaries led her to write two books, "Shadows of the East" (Longmans, 1855) and "The Land of Inheritance" (Quaritch, London, 1863), and to translate a third

<mask> was very involved in many aspects of the social and commercial life of the Cork area. He was patron of Carrigrohane Church of Ireland Primary School.He was also a Justice of the Peace as well as being Deputy Lieutenant of the county of the City of Cork. Like his father, who was a member of the Dock Committee in Liverpool, <mask> was a member of Cork Harbour Board. He had greatest influence during the 1850s when he was "one of the most active members" of the Executive Committee which organised the Cork Exhibition of 1852. He was also Secretary of the Police Committee, which organised security for the Exhibition. His carriage was one of the fifty which rode in the parade at the opening of the Exhibition
Knighthood. The profits of the Cork Exhibition were used to build the Atheneum (Opera House). <mask> was President of the Atheneum and at its opening on 22 May 1855, he was knighted by the Lord Lieutenant.His Excellency, the Earl of Carlisle, said "In recognition of the services he has rendered for the institution, of the great esteem in which he was held by the citizens of Cork but particularly in reference for the vast goods and great benefits he has dispensed to the public in the conduct of the large manufactory at Ballincollig and especially for his kindness and humanity to the numerous workers over whom he has charge." Hospitals

<mask> took an active interest in the management of a number of the city hospitals. Two of these were the Erinville Hospital and the Eglinton District Lunatic Asylum along the Lee Road. In 1874, he presided over a public meeting, which was called to organise a new hospital for Cork. This was "The County and City of Cork Hospital for Women and Children" which later became the Victoria Hospital. <mask> was elected to the permanent Committee

 of Management in 1877. He was appointed Honorary Treasurer and Secretary in 1878 and served in this capacity until his death in 1881.His wife, Lady Catherine, was a patroness of the Hospital for many years. <mask>'s collection of Irish Bronze Age antiquities, that was mostly found in the area around Cork, was purchased by the British Museum in 1871. Death
<mask> died on 9 January 1881. He had been sick for ten weeks with a gastric ulcer and his brother, James Aspinall, was present at his death. He was buried at Inniscarra Cemetery on 11 January. The Cork Examiner said on his death: "Much regret was felt at the announcement of the death of the courteous and popular gentleman, Sir <mask>. He was not a native of this city but for a long time had identified himself with it.By political conviction he was a Conservative but his opinions were always maintained in the courteous and least obtrusive manner and they detracted nothing from the esteem which his urbane manners and general kindness of disposition had won for him." (In his will he left effects in Ireland valued at £5,305.7s.2d.) After his death his wife, Lady Catherine, moved back to England, first to London and then to Eastham in Cheshire where James Aspinall lived. She died there on 23 April 1903, and was buried in Eastham. The memory of Sir <mask> is largely forgotten in Ballincollig today. Yet he played a very important part in the development of the town in the middle of the last century. He was for many years the managing director  of one of the largest manufactories in the south of Ireland.He also played a very important part in the cultural life of Cork City at that time. His grave lies at the end of Inniscarra Graveyard. References

texts:
<mask> (ca. 1450 – 26 March 1517) was a Netherlandish Renaissance composer of south Netherlandish origin. He wrote masses, motets, songs (in French, German and Italian), and instrumental music. A significant contemporary of Josquin des Prez, <mask> influenced the development of music in Germany. Several variants exist of his name: Ysaac, Ysaak, Henricus, Arrigo d'Ugo, and Arrigo il Tedesco among them. (Tedesco means "Flemish" or "German" in Italian.) Early life
Little is known about <mask>'s early life (or indeed what he called himself), but it is probable that he was born in Flanders, probably in Brabant.During the late 15th century, standards of music education in the region were excellent, and he was probably educated in his homeland, although the location is not known. Sixteenth-century Swiss music theorist and writer <mask> claimed <mask> for Germany by dubbing him "Henricus <mask>us", but in his will <mask> called himself by the patronymic "Ugonis de Flandria", 'Hugo's [son] from Flanders'. A writer in the Milanese Revista critica della letteratura italiana, June 1886, speculated that this patronymic might be connected to 'Huygens' and discovered the name "<mask>ke" in the town archives of Bruges. Career

<mask>'s career spanned well over thirty years and allowed him to travel far from his homeland of Flanders into Germany, Italy, and Austria, as well as other parts of central Europe. While the absence of plentiful primary sources makes it hard for us to map out <mask>'s life, piecing together the sources we

texts: do have along with the works he wrote gives us a good picture of just how popular this Franco-Flemish composer was in his time. <mask> was probably writing music by the 1470s, and the first document mentioning his name dates back to 15 September 1484, placing him in Innsbruck as a singer for Duke Sigismund of Austria, of the House of Habsburg. The following year <mask> migrated to Florence, since documents show that by July 1485 <mask> had become employed as a singer at the church Santa Maria del Fiore.By the middle of 1491, he was designated as a singer at Santissima Annunziata, a position that he held until 1493. Several documents illustrate <mask>'s long stay in Florence under the employment of Santa Maria del Fiore and Santissima Annunziata as a singer, and also suggest that he may have developed a close working-relationship with Lorenzo de' Medici. It is speculated that it was Medici who may have summoned <mask> to Florence from Innsbruck in 1484. Previously, <mask> had been identified as an organist to Lorenzo but the <mask> who served at this post is now known to have been <mask>. During his presence in Florence from 1484 until the end of 1496, <mask> probably composed several masses, motets and secular songs, including missa “J'ay pris amours” and the carnival song "Hora è di Maggio". In 1487 <mask> composed the piece “A la battaglia” to commemorate the battle between Genoa and Florence for the castle Sarzanello although there is much debate over the exact date and purpose of the piece. <mask>'s relationship

texts: with Lorenzo de' Medici must have been fairly close, because allegedly between 1488 and 1489 he composed the music for a play called “San Giovanni e San Paolo”, written by Medici himself.Moreover, when Lorenzo died in April 1492 <mask> composed two motets in his memory. Lorenzo's son Piero inherited everything he owned, including his musical groups. In September 1492 Piero took his musical groups to Rome to perform for the coronation of Pope Alexander VI. Records show that <mask> was one of the three singers for whom clothing was purchased for the trip, implying that he probably performed for the Pope. During his first stay in Florence <mask> also had dealings with a Florentine named Piero Bello, whose daughter Bartolomea was <mask>’s wife. Although the actual date of the marriage is unknown, records imply that it may have been arranged for <mask> by Lorenzo de' Medici when he summoned <mask> from Flanders. There is record of Piero Bello giving <mask> a dowry for his daughter in January 1495.In November 1496 after <mask> and his wife spent some time in Pisa, they moved to Vienna and became employed by Emperor Maximilian I. By the winter of 1496 <mask> and Bartolomea had gone from Pisa to Vienna to Innsbruck, and on 3 April 1497, <mask> was appointed court composer for Maximilian I. He remained under Maximilian's employment from 1496 until his death, although he did not remain stationary during that period. In fact, <mask> traveled extensively around Europe north of Italy.

In 1502, <mask> returned to Italy, going to Florence to make arrangements with the hospital Santa Maria Nuova; payments were made to the hospital in return for health and food provisions. Recently discovered documents offer evidence that <mask> began making yearly payments to the confraternity of Santa Barbara for mutual assistance.On 15 August 1502, <mask> wrote his first will which included names of his proprietors, alluding to the fact that he was doing well to care for his wife and property should anything happen to him. He then traveled to Ferrara to the Este court where he wrote the motet "La mi la sol la sol la mi" in merely two days and competed with Josquin for employment: a famous letter from the agent of the Este family compared the two composers, saying that "[<mask>] is of a better disposition among his companions, and he will compose new works more often. It is true that Josquin composes better, but he composes when he wants to and not when one wants him to." Between 1505 and 1512 there are records of <mask> having dealings in Augsburg, Florence and Constance (see Konstanz), the latter in which he compiled his largest set of works: Choralis Constantinus. This monumental collection of mass propers was commissioned by the Constance cathedral on 14 April 1508 and completed by <mask> and his student Ludwig Senfl by the winter of 1509. <mask> and Bartolomea were almost definitely back in

On 4 January 1512 <mask> bartered his house in Florence for a smaller one, signifying his settling down.He and his wife probably remained there except for a few short trips until his death. <mask> also made a point to revise his will on 24 November 1512 in which he requested that a mass be said every year forever at Santissima Annunziata or another church should Annunziata be unable. Bartolomea would be able to pay for these masses with provisions. On the recommendation of Pope Leo X and of his brother Giuliano de’ Medici, he was given an honorary position as chief of the Chapel of Polyphonic Music at Santa Maria del Fiore on 30 May 1514, which served as a pension. <mask> also continued to receive payments from the court of Maximilian I regardless of his living in Florence. In December 1515, Pope Leo X made a visit to Florence, where he almost certainly would have heard <mask>'s music performed. Shortly before his death, <mask> wrote a third and final will, which shortened his previous request to instead have a commemorative mass said every year for ten years.<mask> died on 26 March 1517. Santissima Annunziata received payment the following day to hold his funeral. A last posthumous donation was made to the confraternity of Santa Barbara in the amount of five florins, which was equal to one quarter the value of <mask>'s home. Bartolomea survived her husband by just over seventeen years and died on 30 May 1534.

 Compositions

<mask> was one of the most prolific composers of the time, producing an extraordinarily diverse output, including almost all the forms and styles current at the time; only Lassus, at the end of the 16th century, had a wider overall range. Music composed by <mask> included masses, motets, songs in French, German, and Italian, as well as instrumental music. His best known work may be the song "Innsbruck, ich muss dich lassen", of which he made at least two versions.It is possible, however, that the melody itself is not by <mask>, and only the setting is original. The same melody was later used as the theme for the Lutheran hymn "O Welt, ich muss dich lassen", which was the basis of works by Johann Sebastian Bach, including his St Matthew Passion and Johannes Brahms. Of his settings of the ordinary of the mass, 36 survive; others are believed to have been lost. Numerous individual movements of masses survive as well. But it is composition of music for the Proper of the Mass – the portion of the liturgy which changed on different days, unlike the ordinary, which remained constant – which gave him his greatest fame. The huge cycle of motets which he wrote for the mass Proper, the Choralis Constantinus, and which he left incomplete at his death, would have supplied music for 100 separate days of the year. <mask> is held in high regard for his Choralis Constantinus.It is a huge anthology of over 450 chant-based polyphonic motets for the Proper of the Mass. It had its origins in a commission that <mask>

 received from the Cathedral in Konstanz, Germany in April 1508 to set many of the Propers unique to the local liturgy. <mask> was in Konstanz because Maximilian had called a meeting of the Reichstag (German Parliament of nobles) there and <mask> was on hand to provide music for the Imperial court chapel choir. After the deaths of both Maximilian and <mask>, Ludwig Senfl, who had been <mask>'s pupil as a member of the Imperial court choir, gathered all the <mask> settings of the Proper and placed them into liturgical order for the church year. But the anthology was not published until 1555, after Senfl's death, by which time the reforms of the Council of Trent had made many of the texts obsolete. The motets remain some of the finest examples of chant-based Renaissance polyphony in existence. <mask> composed a 6-voice motet Angeli Archangeli for the Feast of All Saint’s Day, honoring angels, archangels, and all other saints.Another famous motet by <mask> is Optime pastor (Optime divino), written for the accession to the papacy of Medici pope Leo X. This motet compares the Pope to a shepherd capable of soothing all of his flock and binding them together. While in the service of the Medici in Florence, <mask> wrote a lament on the death of Lorenzo de' Medici, Quis dabit capiti meo aquam (1492), which set words by Lorenzo's favorite poet, Angelo Poliziano. Influence

The influence of <mask> was especially pronounced in Germany, due to the connection he maintained with the Habsburg court. He was the first significant

 master of the Franco-Flemish polyphonic style who both lived in German-speaking areas, and whose music was widely distributed there. It was through him that the polyphonic style of the Netherlands became widely accepted in Germany, making possible the further development of contrapuntal music there.

title: George Boleyn, Viscount Rochford

texts:
<mask>, Viscount Rochford (c. 1504 – 17 May 1536) was an English courtier and nobleman who played a  prominent role in the politics of the early 1530s, and was the brother of Anne Boleyn, from 1533 the second wife of King Henry VIII and thus the maternal uncle of Queen Elizabeth I (whose reign he did not live to see). Following his father's promotion in the peerage in 1529 to Earl of Wiltshire and Earl of Ormond, he adopted his father's junior title Viscount Rochford (created in 1525) as a courtesy title. He was accused of incest with his sister Anne during the period of her trial for high treason, as a result of which both were executed. Early years and family
<mask> was the son of Sir Thomas Boleyn, later Earl of Wiltshire and Earl of Ormond, and his wife, Lady Elizabeth Howard, the daughter of Thomas Howard, 2nd Duke of Norfolk and Elizabeth Tilney. <mask> and his sisters were probably born in Norfolk at his family's home of Blickling Hall. However, they spent most of their childhood at another of the family's homes, Hever Castle in Kent, which became their chief residence in 1505 when Thomas inherited the property from his father, Sir William Boleyn. Thomas and Elizabeth had a number of children, including two sons named Thomas and Henry who failed to reach adulthood.Three children survived: Mary, Anne and <mask>. There has been much debate over the centuries as to the age of the three Boleyn siblings, but there is general agreement that <mask> was born c. 1504. This stems from a number of different sources. <mask> says in a poem that <mask> was about 27 when he gained a place on the Privy Council in 1529. Cavendish gives

In addition to Cavendish's verses, foreign diplomats believed <mask> was too young to be appointed as Ambassador to France in October 1529. Mary's date of birth is again generally accepted as being c. 1500 but there is some disagreement as to Anne's date of birth with arguments for 1501 and others for 1507.However, following the executions of Anne and <mask> in 1536 their father wrote to Thomas Cromwell and in his letter he stated that upon his marriage his wife gave him a child every year. As Thomas and Elizabeth were married between 1498 and 1499, if Thomas is to be believed this indicates that all five Boleyn children, including the two who failed to reach adulthood, were born between 1500 and 1504, and if we accept as the evidence suggests that <mask> was born in 1504 this is persuasive evidence for suggesting he was the youngest Boleyn child. This is the current thinking of the vast majority of modern historians with only one notable exception. Like his father, it was understood that <mask> would have a career as a courtier, politician and diplomat. The monarchy was the font of all patronage and potential wealth and it was only through service to the Royal Family that a family could hope to achieve or protect their greatness and social position. With this in mind, <mask> was introduced to Henry VIII's court at the age of ten, when he attended the Christmas festivities of 1514–15. He attended an indoor melee with his father and acted in a mummery with his father, and the much older Charles Brandon and Nicholas Carew.Thanks to

 his family's influence and the fact he obviously impressed Henry at an early age, he became one of the King's pageboys shortly afterwards. Since learning was highly praised at Court and essential for a career as a diplomat, <mask> received an excellent education, speaking fluent French together with some Italian and Latin. His two sisters are known to have been educated abroad (Mary from 1514 to 1519, Anne from the spring of 1513 to late 1521). <mask> is thought to have remained in England throughout his early years, although <mask>'s first biographer suggests <mask> may have spent time in France as a child when his father was on embassy from January 1519, as an explanation for how <mask> could speak such perfect French from a young age, and why Anne and <mask> remained so close during their formative years. However, this is pure speculation. Whatever the case, there is a long-standing tradition that <mask> attended the University of Oxford when he was not in attendance at Court, although he does not appear in any of the University's records – a relatively frequent occurrence in the period before the English Civil War, when few of the aristocrats who attended either technically matriculated or graduated. Personal life

Less is known about <mask>'s personal life than about his celebrated court career, but what is known is that he married Jane Parker sometime during 1524.They were certainly married by January 1526 because a note of that date in Cardinal Thomas Wolsey's hand confirms that an extra £20 a year had been awarded to "young Boleyn for him and his wife to live on". There has always been much speculation as to whether the

 marriage of <mask> and Jane was happy but there is no way to know for certain, as the state papers are virtually silent with regard to Jane. There is no mention of the couple having any children, which as the brother-in-law and sister-in-law to the king, there surely would have been had such a child existed. It had been thought that <mask>n, Dean of Lichfield, may have been their son; but it is more likely that he was a distant cousin. There is no record of the couple having a child, and Jane makes no mention of a child for whom she is responsible when she wrote a begging letter to Cromwell following <mask>'s death. Whether or not the marriage of <mask> and Jane was happy, <mask> had a reputation as a womaniser. <mask>, gentleman usher to Cardinal Wolsey, in his poetry entitled Metrical Visions lambastes the young man for his womanising, saying:

Yet in the same poem Cavendish, who was a staunch Catholic and hated the Boleyns and what they stood for, acknowledges <mask>'s good looks and intelligence, saying:

Likewise Thomas Wyatt in his poetry also recognises <mask>'s "Great wit" (although wit in the 16th century could suggest that a person was witty and charming, it mainly meant intelligence, and it is <mask>'s intelligence that Cavendish and Wyatt were referring to.)Wyatt's verse with respect to <mask> reads:

Historian David Starkey recognised <mask>'s intellect when he referred to him as having "many of Anne's talents and all of her pride". For all <mask>'s good looks and talent, as can be seen from the above verse, Wyatt, who was a friend of the Boleyns', also says that <mask> was too proud. Although Wyatt's poem is often

texts: used to suggest <mask> was hated for his arrogance, there is nothing to support this. Despite <mask>'s pride, Wyatt acknowledges that at his death many considered his death to be a great loss. It may also be that the allegations of <mask>'s womanising are exaggerated, since there was no scandal surrounding the Boleyns' marriage, and none of the Boleyns' enemies felt that <mask>'s behaviour towards women was base enough to comment on. Likewise, neither Cavendish nor the Imperial Ambassador, Eustace Chapuys, who was actively looking for faults in order to demonise the Boleyns, make any mention of him being particularly arrogant. Chapuys' only complaint was that <mask> could not resist entering into Lutheran discussion whenever he was being entertained by him.One modern historian, Retha Warnicke, believes that the men accused of being Anne's lovers were chosen because of ambiguity over their sexuality. This has led to an increasingly enduring myth that the men were charged with sodomy as well as treason. In fact, none of them was charged with sodomy, and there were no extant rumours of homosexuality relating to any of them. Warnicke's theory was put forth in her 1989 biography of Anne Boleyn, but has been criticised by many other historians for lack of evidence to substantiate it. However, more recently Alison Weir has resurrected the theory regarding <mask>'s sexuality by using the same arguments that Warnicke used 20 years previously. In addition to this, Weir also suggests that by his use of the phrase forced widows, Cavendish was insinuating that <mask> was a rapist. As with the theory of <mask>'s sexuality, there is no

texts:
 evidence to support the notion that he was a rapist.If he had been guilty of the criminal offences of rape or homosexuality, and if Cavendish knew about it, then so did the rest of the court. Yet no one ever commented on <mask>'s supposed bisexuality, or even hinted at it, not even enemies of the Boleyns, such as Chapuys. Metrical Visions are Cavendish's interpretation of <mask>'s scaffold speech, when <mask> said he was "a wretched sinner deserving of death". Despite the current enthusiasm for believing that Cavendish was referring to homosexuality, his 16th-century interpretation was that <mask> was apologising for his promiscuity, of which he may or may not have been guilty. To use Metrical Visions and <mask>'s scaffold speech as the lone pieces of evidence to support an argument for homosexual behaviour is problematic. The verses in Metrical Visions are based merely on Cavendish's interpretation of <mask>'s scaffold speech, with Warnicke and Weir solely re-interpreting <mask>'s final words on the basis of Cavendish's writings. Appointments and career
<mask> is first mentioned as an adult in 1522 when he and his father received a joint grant of various manor houses in Kent.The grant was made in April, suggesting that <mask> was born in April 1504 and that this grant was an 18th-birthday gift. He received the first grant in his sole name in 1524, when at the age of 20 he received from the King a country mansion, Grimston Manor in Norfolk. It is supposed that this was an early wedding present made to a young man who was rapidly coming into favour. He was a firm favourite of the King and is regularly mentioned in the Privy

texts: Purse expenses as playing the King at bowls, tennis, card games and archery. He also hunted with the King and bet large sums of money with him. He won huge sums off the King but probably lost just as much, if not more. Gambling was one of the European aristocracy's favourite pastimes in the period.In 1525, <mask> was appointed gentleman of the Privy Chamber, functioning as the male equivalent to the King of what a lady-in-waiting was to the Queen. As part of a reorganisation of the Court structure, known as the Eltham Ordinance, Cardinal Wolsey, an opponent of the Boleyns, ensured that <mask> lost this position six months later when he halved the number of gentlemen in the Privy Chamber. Wolsey used the reorganisation to get rid of those whom he perceived as a threat, which was something of a backhanded compliment to the 21-year-old Boleyn whose court prominence was already being acknowledged. As compensation, <mask> was appointed Royal Cupbearer in January 1526 in addition to his award of an additional £20 a year for him and his wife to live on. Following her return to England in 1519, Mary Boleyn became Henry VIII's mistress. It is not known when that relationship started or when it ended or indeed for how long it lasted. It was certainly over by 1526 when the King's eyes turned to another Boleyn sibling, Anne, and by 1527 he was seeking to marry her.Much of <mask>'s career was in furtherance to the king's desire for a divorce from his first wife to enable him to marry Anne. In June 1528, <mask> contracted the disease known as sweating sickness whilst with the King and Catherine of Aragon at Waltham Abbey. In a letter to

texts: Anne, who also contracted the disease while at Hever Castle, Henry told her of her brother's illness and recovery. Later that year, <mask> was appointed Esquire of the Body and Master of the Buckhounds in 1528. Throughout the late 1520s grants continued to be bestowed upon him. On 15 November 1528 he became keeper of the Palace of Beaulieu and on 1 February 1529 was appointed chief steward of Beaulieu (later in October 1533 he would be granted a life interest in the Palace). On 29 July 1529 he was appointed Governor of Bethlehem Hospital (Bedlam), which was a profitable sinecure.<mask>'s diplomatic career took off in late 1529 when he was knighted and regained his former position as a member of the Privy chamber. It was also in December 1529 that he became known by the courtesy title of Viscount Rochford when his father was created Earl of Wiltshire and Earl of Ormond, and undertook his first assignment as a diplomat to France as ambassador. Because of his youth, (he was only 25), it is believed that Anne's influence secured him this post, although there is no evidence that he lacked the ability to undertake the role. The French ambassador, Jean du Bellay, commented that <mask> was considerably younger than many of the other foreign diplomats and that the appointment of a man barely out of his teens would cause amusement. But he also goes on to say that <mask> should be shown more honour than was ordinarily necessary, and that his reception would be well weighted. Irrespective of his age, <mask> quickly established a good relationship with King Francis I of France and did well in his first embassy. <mask> attended a total of

texts: six foreign embassies to France.The first was between late October 1529 and late February 1530. <mask> attended with John Stokesley, the Dean of the Chapel Royal. Their mission was to encourage the universities of France to support Henry VIII's divorce from Catherine of Aragon. The universities' response was initially negative, but <mask> encouraged King Francis to write a strong letter in favour of the divorce, which was later used to reverse the universities' decision. The second was in March 1533 when he informed the King of France of his sister's marriage to the King of England. <mask> was also instructed to encourage Francis into giving Henry more support, and following a lengthy debate <mask> succeeded in obtaining a letter from Francis asking the Pope to concede to Henry's wishes. Not everyone was happy with <mask>'s success.The Bishop of Paris, who had found <mask>'s youth so amusing, described him as "the most unreasonable young man who ever crossed the sea". Yet despite the criticism Du Bellay grudgingly gave praise for the respect <mask>n inspired at the meeting and the strength with which he argued the case. <mask>'s third embassy was between May and August 1533 when he travelled to France with his uncle the Duke of Norfolk to be present at a proposed meeting between the King of France and Pope Clement VII. It was during this mission that news reached them that the Pope had excommunicated Henry. It was <mask> who returned to England to inform Henry of the Pope's actions. On 10 September 1533, <mask> carried the canopy over his royal niece the Princess Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth I) at her christening, along

His fourth embassy was in April 1534 when <mask> was again appointed to encourage the French King to give more support to Henry's cause, to pass similar legislation against the Pope as had been passed in England, and to arrange a meeting between the two Kings and Anne.In July 1534, <mask> once again attended the French court, this time to rearrange the meeting that had been arranged between the kings as a result of Anne's pregnancy (she later miscarried). In <mask>'s instructions is a passage stating he is one who the King "specially loveth and trustith". <mask>'s final embassy was in May 1535 when he and his uncle were appointed by the King to negotiate a marriage contract between the King of France's third son and the baby Princess Elizabeth, <mask>'s niece. When <mask> was not abroad, he often escorted foreign diplomats and ambassadors into the King's presence. Chapuys in particular regularly refers in his dispatches to meeting "the ladies brother". In October 1529, immediately prior to <mask>'s first embassy abroad, he was instructed to escort Chapuys on his first audience with the King. Chapuys refers to meeting "a civil gentleman named Boleyn".Ironically, Chapuys had liked <mask>, before he became aware of who he was. In addition to his diplomatic career, <mask> was an acknowledged court poet of considerable merit, and was also much admired as a talented linguist and translator. He was passionate about religious reform and translated from French into English two magnificent religious

texts: texts as presents for his sister Anne, which he dedicates "To the right honourable lady, the Lady Marchiness of Pembroke, her most loving and friendly brother sendeth greetings." The translations codify the Lutheran doctrine which both Anne and <mask> were so immersed in, and emphasise the joint commitment of both siblings to reform of the Church. When Anne was sent a religious pamphlet by Simon Fish, "A Supplication for the Beggars", it was <mask>, according to Fish's wife, who encouraged Anne to show it to the King. In matters of religion Anne and <mask>leyn were very much a team. Though Anne had far greater influence owing to the King's infatuation with her, her brother clearly identified both of them with the new religious ideas.<mask>'s own religious views resulted in him having an influential role in the Reformation Parliament between its conception in late 1529 and his death in 1536. Both siblings were talented debaters on the issues of religious philosophy and it was <mask> whom Henry chose in 1531 to argue the case for royal supremacy over the Church, before the Church's advisory body, Convocation. On 5 February 1533, <mask> was formally called to Parliament and his attendance rate was higher than any other Lord despite his other onerous duties, clearly indicating his commitment. He obviously voted in favour of the statutes which brought to an end the Pope's powers in England, and his commitment to religious reform earned him many enemies who held true to the Catholic faith. Various peers who were opposed to the legislation were excused attendance provided they appoint a proxy. <mask> twice held the proxy vote of

Unfortunately for <mask>, De La Warr later sat on the jury which tried him.In 1535 he was one of the special commissioners at the trial of Sir Thomas More and at the trial of three Carthusian Monks, all of whom, because of their religious convictions, refused to swear allegiance to the Act of Succession and Supremacy which had been passed the previous year. <mask>, his father, the King's illegitimate son Henry Fitzroy and all other courtiers of rank were present at the monks' executions, which took place on 4 May 1535. In June 1534, <mask> was appointed Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports and Constable of Dover Castle. These were among  the highest appointments in the realm and, as usual, he committed to them with zeal. He is regularly referred to in the State Papers in his position as Warden sitting at the Warden's court at Dover. From Thomas Cromwell's point of view, <mask>'s influence as Lord Warden was a thorn in his side. On 26 November 1534, <mask> wrote to Cromwell expressing fury that Cromwell had undermined one of his orders made as Lord Warden.Trial and execution: 1536
In 1536, Anne Boleyn miscarried a son. Her failure to provide Henry with a male heir coincided with Henry's infatuation with Jane Seymour, one of his wife's maids-of-honour. To rid himself of his wife, Henry and his chief advisor, Thomas Cromwell, devised a plot whereby Anne was accused of adultery with five men, one of whom was her brother, <mask>. <mask> was charged with incest with the Queen and plotting with Anne to kill the King. During a conversation with Chapuys following the

texts: Boleyns' deaths, Cromwell boasted that he had gone to a great deal of trouble arranging the plot, suggesting he did so in order to assist an alliance with Spain. Yet despite his boasts, during the same conversation he greatly praised both Anne and her brother for their "sense, wit, and courage". On 23 April 1536 <mask> was expected to be chosen to receive the Order of the Garter, but the honour went to a known opponent of the Boleyns instead, Sir Nicholas Carew.The following day, Henry gave instructions to Cromwell to set up a special commission looking into various treasons. Anne and <mask> were arrested on 2 May 1536, the day after the May Day joust at which <mask> was one of the principal jousters. The four others implicated in the plot, Sir Henry Norris, Sir Francis Weston, Sir William Brereton, and Mark Smeaton were tried on Friday 12 May. Only Smeaton confessed, probably after torture, but certainly emotional pressure. Despite lack of evidence all four men were found guilty. Thomas Howard, Duke of Norfolk sat on the jury and effectively condemned his own niece by finding the men guilty. Anne was pre-judged for the earlier convictions of the men found guilty of adultery with her; therefore she stood trial before her brother.<mask> stood trial a few hours after Anne on Monday 15 May. As Anne had been found guilty before <mask> had stood trial, he too was pre-judged because he could hardly be acquitted when his sister had already been found guilty of incest. The order of the trials had been arranged to ensure the difficult case against <mask> could not realistically fail. Everyone who witnessed <mask>'s trial, including the


title: George Boleyn, Viscount Rochford

texts: Imperial Ambassador Eustace Chapuys, considered that he put up a magnificent defence and many thought that he would be acquitted. Chapuys reported that those watching were betting 10 to 1 that he would be acquitted, and the court chronicler Charles Wriothesley said that his evidence was a marvel to hear. There was no evidence of incest save that on one occasion he had spent a long time alone with Anne. Chapuys says he was convicted merely on a presumption.<mask>'s wife has throughout history been accused of providing evidence to support the incest charge, but this is unlikely to be correct. None of the evidence relating to the trials makes any mention of <mask>'s wife as providing evidence save for the fact that she told in a letter that Anne had told her Henry was "not able to satisfy a woman and he had neither capacity nor virility". This in itself was damning because it provided a potential motive for Anne's behaviour. Yet whatever <mask> may or may not have said, it seems that the majority of the courtiers believed in his innocence, as can be seen from the wagers they were making in favour of acquittal. Irrespective of what those at court thought, he was unanimously found guilty and the sentence of the court was that he be hanged, drawn, and quartered (the sentence was later commuted to beheading). He asked for his debts be paid out of his confiscated assets so that no one would suffer from his death, and he continued to be distressed about his debts whilst awaiting death. In fact his distress was so acute that the Constable of the Tower, Sir William Kingston wrote to Cromwell twice begging him to help ease <mask>'s

 conscience.<mask> and the other four men were beheaded on Tower Hill on the morning of 17 May 1536. <mask>'s scaffold speech was extremely long and exemplified the orator's linguistic skills. For it to have been recorded in as much detail as it was, the vast crowd who witnessed the executions must have been virtually silent, and there could have been little booing or jeering as with normal state executions. His scaffold speech was primarily concerned with defending his religious beliefs and his passion for reform. It was not the honourable thing to deny guilt once a guilty verdict had been given in a court of law, and therefore he followed the conventions of the day by admitting he was a sinner deserving of death. He begged forgiveness of anyone he may have offended and begged for God's forgiveness. He came close to denying his guilt by declaring, "beware, trust not in the vanity of the world or the flatteries of the court, or the favour and treacheries of fortune".He said he would be alive if he had not done so. By blaming fortune for his fall he came as close as he dared to denying his guilt (i.e., he was dying because luck had been against him, not because he was guilty). He then went on to speak of his religious convictions before calmly submitting his neck to the axe. Anne was beheaded two days later. Titles
