texts: <mask>Ronnie<mask> was an English rugby union footballer who captained. He died in the First World War. He was the son of Emily Palmer and the husband of a zoologist. He attended the Dragon School, Rugby School, and Balliol College. Balliol College was one of the places where <mask> played. The individual record for the fixture in 1909 is still held by <mask>, who scored five tries. He captained England in the 1913–14 season and scored four tries against France in the last test match before World War I.Edward Bagnall <mask> was born at Wykeham House in Oxford on September 12th, 1889. Edward was a professor at Oxford University and a fellow of Jesus College. He was brought up at Wykeham House, an impressive residence on Oxford's Banbury Road, with six servants. Edward, Margaret, and Janet were his siblings. He attended the Dragon School from 1897 to 1903. The best all-round athlete at the school was <mask>. He scored 15 tries in one match.Rugby School was where he went from 1903 to 1908. He was a part of the rugby XV for four years. He won the 'Athletic Cup' in his final three years, after being in the cricket XI in 1907 and 1908. He was in both the rugby XV and the hockey XI for the Varsity matches of 1909, 1910, and 1911 while he was at Balliol College. He was promoted to the rank of cadet colour sergeant after he resigned from the Oxford University officers training corps. After moving to Reading in 1912, he joined his uncle in the Huntley and Palmer biscuit company. He joined the factory workers in sporting activities in order to introduce the game of rugby to them.He trained in engineering and played for the FC XV. He had a fortune after his uncle died. The responsibility of how to use it for the best is something that troubles him. The condition of his inheritance was that he change his name to Palmer. His name was not actually '<mask> Palmer' but rather '<mask>-Palmer'. One of the most talked about rugby players in the history of the game was Oxford'sRonnie <mask>. He followed in the footsteps of Adrian Stoop, who was one of the great innovators of rugby tactics.When Stoop went to Oxford, he played in the Varsity matches of 1901, 1903, and 1904, and was the captain in 1904. Stoop already applied an intelligent approach to improving the game with rigorous attention to detail, and new ideas about changing the direction of attack, and deliberately surprising the opponent's defence. Stoop introduced <mask> to the threequarter line for his first class match. He knew before he arrived at Balliol that it was going to be difficult to get into the Oxford side, despite his reputation as a rugby player. Colin Gilray arrived from New Zealand with a strong reputation and was given the only vacancies. At first, he played on the wing, but then at centre, in his first term. The last fixture before the match was against Blackheath.Being so close to the game against Cambridge, it was something of a trials match, and <mask> had a bad game at right centre. The centre pair of Vassall and Frank Tarr was proven in 1907 and 1906. On January 30, 1909, Frank Tarr and <mask> were called up to play for England against France. England came away with a 22–0 victory over France, despite the fact that France was not part of the Five Nations Championship. Tarr only played for England once more in 1913 after scoring two tries that day. The remaining Championship games are against Ireland and Scotland. George Cunningham, who later captained Oxford, replaced Vassall with <mask> for the Varsity match.Cunningham had the same threequarter line as the previous year at his disposal, and it was only shortly before the match that he decided against Vassall. For his part, Vassall was considered one of the world's best centres, and had played for England against Ireland and for the Anglo-Welsh touring side. In earlier matches, Gilray was on the wing, but in the 1909 match, they played at the centre. The match became known as "Poulton's Match" due to the fact that he had five tries in the match. The first international rugby match to be played at Twickenham was between England and Wales on January 15, 1910. Adrian Stoop, England's captain and flyhalf, received the ball from Ben Gronow. In a break with orthodox play, which required him to kick the ball back into touch, Stoop began a run from the right side towards the far left corner.He then passed the ball to John Birkett on the left wing, and from there it moved on to other people. The ball was sent to Fred Chapman on the right wing, who scored in the corner, after Dai Gent sent a kick towards the posts. England led 11–3 at half time and Wales only managed to score one try in the second half. A big crowd turned up at Queen's to watch the match. He was in the left centre with Geen. After a try by Cambridge was ruled out in the opening minutes, <mask> ran through the Cambridge defence and passed to Geen, who dived in at the corner. Oxford led 5–0 with Turner's conversion.Geen dropped the ball after crossing the line while trying to get closer to the posts after a similar passage of play. Cambridge scored two tries and were leading 15–13 at the break, despite Geen getting a second try. A try early in the second half gave Cambridge a five-point lead, but an injury to a winger reduced them to 14 men. He scored from a dummy pass to Geen, and then ran in a solo try after receiving a pass from Freddie Knott. The score was 23 to Oxford. Geen and <mask>, who were considered the scoring force of the Oxford team, were both selected to play for England in the second trial match against The North. Although Geen scored a try in the game, he was outshone by <mask>, "the only man who was adding to his reputation, and played a really brilliant game."Geen was dropped for the third and final trial, England versus The Rest, on January 7, 1911. He was only picked to play for England in a test match against Scotland in March of 1911. Oxford had a captain in the autumn of 1911. The <mask>–Geen partnership was a constant threat to opposing teams in the run up to the 1911 Varsity Match. Oxford beat London Scottish 39–3 ten days before the game, with Geen scoring four tries. Oxford defeated Cambridge in front of a crowd of 10,000 on 12 December. Eric Thomas, a forward, lacked the speed and skills to combine effectively with Geen after the first try of the match was scored by <mask>.Geen dropped the ball over the tryline in the previous year's match, but he came close to scoring. He was going to make the same mistake the next year. Freddie Turner, a former Oxford teammate and captain of Scotland, was the captain of the club that later merged with St Helen's RUFC. In the 1913–14 season, the club had three international rugby captains of the same era, with the inclusion of Dickie Lloyd, Ireland's flyhalf and captain. The club lost many members in the First World War. In 1912, he played three games for England, against Wales, Ireland and Scotland. On January 4, 1913, he scored the only try by any of the international teams to face the tourists of 1912–13, in a game against a touring side from South Africa.E.H.D. There was a chance that England would score a further try in the game. Had it not been for E.E., the South African fullback Gerhard Morkel would have been the one to score. McHardy made a tackle. The left wing of England, V.M.H., was blamed for not following up by the press. There is a person named Coates. He thought that it was impossible for the wings to keep up with him because of his elusiveness, and that he was better suited to play on the wing.The Welsh hosted the English on 18 January. Since 1895, England has not won in Wales. Norman Wodehouse, England's captain, was confident of victory until the morning of the match when it was raining, and the first half of the match ended without a score. In the second half, <mask> kicked a drop goal to open the scoring. England scored two tries to win the match. The term 'Grand Slam' was not yet used, but in 1914 the captain of England was named, and he led the team for all four matches of the Five Nations Championship and a second Grand Slam. The first match was between England and Wales.For the next game, against Ireland, a large police contingent was posted outside the ground in anticipation of violent protests relating to the Home rule debate, but the 40,000 crowd were peaceable and kept entertained. The Irish flyhalf and captain that day was <mask>, who was praised by a teammate. It was a pleasure to play against him and he was always fascinating. England got ahead 16–6, but Scotland fought back to within one point. The last international rugby match was between England and France in April of 1914. In England's 39–13 victory, <mask> set a record for tries scored in an international match. Chris Ashton equalled his tally in 2011.The Victoria Cross was awarded to five players from the England team who were killed in the First World War. When it was discovered that some farmers and fishermen were receiving money to play, <mask> challenged the RFU on the question of payment to players, arguing that recompensing workers for lost wages did not amount to professionalism, but would allow rugby to flourish amongst all social classes. He was ignored. The last international game of rugby to be played in the United Kingdom before the First World War was England's victory over Scotland in March 1914. The next best game was against Wales and South Africa in 1913. Against Wales, playing on the wing, he dropped a goal in England's 12–0 victory away at Cardiff, with his former Oxford partner Billy Geen at centre for the opposition. After leaving Oxford and stepping down from the Officers' Training Corps, he was commissioned into the 1st/4th Battalion Princess Charlotte of Wales's (Territorial Force) in June of 1912.<mask> volunteered for overseas service during the First World War. He told his parents that nothing mattered until the war was over and Germany was defeated. You can't see what's happening in Australia. Germany has to be destroyed. Everybody is volunteering at the military party. I would be a skunk to hold back those who are most wanted. When the battalion left for the Western Front on 30 March 1915, it remained in training in Chelmsford.His experience of the war was brief. On the morning of May 5, 1915, <mask> was shot by an enemy sniper while he was repairing a trench in the vicinity of Ploegsteert Wood in Belgium. Lieutenant Colonel Thorne wrote that his death must have been instantaneous. Captain Jack Conybeare wrote later that day, "I was talking to one of the Berks' officers this morning." <mask> was the most popular officer in the battalion, according to him. He was directing a working party on top of the parapet when he was hit. If one is caught showing his head above the parapet one is threatened with court-martial.At night, we have working parties of one kind or another out, either wiring, repairing the parapet, or doing something which involves coming from under cover, and one simply takes the risk of stray bullets. He captained his team to a 17–0 victory in a game of rugby against the 4th Division, with Basil Maclear, the former Irish international, as the referee. It was his last. His team included two other internationals, Sidney Smart of England and William Middleton Wallace of Scotland, while the opposition included Billy Hinton and Tyrell, both of Ireland. The grave of <mask> is in a cemetery in Belgium. There is a memorial on the west wall of the Chapel passage at Balliol College. The cross marking <mask>'s grave was taken back to Oxford and put in a wall in Hollywell Cemetery.George Cunningham, his Oxford teammate and captain, wrote on his death: "He ran, as everyone remembers, with a curiously even, yet high-stepping motion, his head thrown back, the ball held in front at full arms' length." He was a welcome companion on the football field and everywhere else. Rugby had a service on 10 May. The Reverend Albert David was the Head Master of Rugby School. If we were asked to describe what the highest kind of manhood rugby helps to make, I think we should have Ronnie in mind. He was endowed with a rare combination of graces and we hoped that he would live and die for others. A memorial service was held in Oxford in 1915."Many of us believed that with his ready sympathy, his freedom from selfishness, and his courage to follow what he saw to be right, he would grasp the causes of our labour unrest, and remove them from the great industry," said Reverend William Temple. The greatest-ever attacking rugby union threequarter was considered by many contemporary observers to be that of <mask>-Palmer. The World Rugby Hall of Fame inducted <mask> on September 20, 2015. Rugby players killed in action during the First World War are included in the List of England rugby union footballers killed in the World Wars. The World Rugby Hall of Fame has deaths by firearm in Belgium.

title: Scarlat Vârnav

type: paraphrased

texts: Sofronie Vrnav, also known as <mask>rnav, was aMoldavian political figure and philanthropist. He was made to study for a career in the church, but fledMoldavia and studied abroad. He helped establish bodies of intellectuals dedicated to cultural and political cooperation across the Danubian Principalities and beyond. The core of the Iai Museum of Art is his purchase of Baroque paintings. Vrnav's revolutionary agenda brought him into conflict with European governments. He returned to take orders at Neam Monastery after playing a small part in the French Revolution. He and his brother took part in the nationalist movement that established the United Principalities, and were active as electoral campaign workers.His stand-off with the conservative monks of Neam resulted in the establishment of a dissident monastery, and his support of modernization in schools and the church was not welcomed by the religious establishment. Vrnav still approved of Cuza's authoritarian agenda even though he lost the backing of Domnitor. Vrnav ended his career in Tutova County after campaigning for Carol I. He was a member of the Free and Independent Faction. He died of a sudden illness days after winning a seat in the Assembly of Deputies. The riot had to be quelled by armed intervention and an official inquiry after rumors of his poisoning by the Jews. He was survived by his brother and nephew.It is known that Vrnav was a native of Hilieu (or Silieu), Dorohoi County, but other details remain unclear. According to Petronel Zahariuc, the most likely date was October 14, 1813, though he notes that it may be impossible to know the exact date. Zahariuc thinks that the record from Vrnav's day is unrealistic. Vrnav was christened after the reigning <mask> Callimachi in a family manuscript.

Petrachi was one of the leaders of the resistance to the "Sacred Band" during the civil war of 1821.The son of Ban Vasile Vrnav was believed to have been a book collector and translator. It is argued by Zahariuc that this identification is misleading because his father was a Vasile Vrnav, but not the same as a translator. The future monk's distant cousins included a bishop. His brother, Costandin or Costache, trained himself as a surgeon. The Hilieu estate and part of Liveni were shared by the two. After an early education provided by his father, Scarlat began copying manuscripts. According to Zahariuc, both <mask> and Constantin were sent to study abroad in the Duchy of Bukovina immediately after the 1821 troubles.Maria was married to another boyar, Costache Roset of Botoani. According to one account, <mask> was selected by his mother to take orders in the church. He escaped to his relatives in Bukovina, and later made his way to Paris, according to this reading. It is possible that his departure was prompted by the incident. Vrnav lived in France. He attended the Paris Law Faculty in the 19th century but never took a degree. He purchased the art collection with his own money.It included paintings by Caravaggio, Philippe de Champaigne, Egbert van Heemskerck, Eustache Le Sueur, Pietro Liberi, Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, and Franois Stella. In 1847, he donated all of his artwork to theMoldavian state, which took little interest in the offer. At the shipyard in Galai, the collection was left to degrade. Vrnav dedicated a library to the "new era of European liberalism" and set the foundation for a Romanian Orthodox chapter in Paris after taking up the cause of Romania's nationalism. The library has 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 888-270-6611 Vrnav was a good friend of Dinc, who was born into slavery at Pacani. He offered to hire Dinc as a secretary of the library if he wouldn't return to his owners.Vrnav was in contact with Ion Ionescu de la Brad in the mid 1840s, sponsoring his attempts to set up a model farm in southernMoldavia, and also offering to employ Ionescu as a trainer of peasants. In his address to the library's patrons, Vrnav explained that he believed the church and the Romanian language to be protectors of our nationhood. He said that the "new ideas and new beliefs" had not yet settled, but that the mores were "dead" because of the "era of transition" that 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 He was worried that the nation might not be allowed the time to enjoy its future joys. Vrnav suggested that the two were inextricably linked, as he chided Westernized Romania for forgetting their mission and native language. He proposed that the emerging Romanian literature needed to keep its cosmopolitan tendencies in check by showing "originality and Romanianism" rather than the "illusions of the senses" and "chimeras of individual hurdles." His focus was on providing young intellectuals with a cultural training that was already in their vernacular language, which included efforts to discard the Cyrillic orthography as "foreign".He wanted to know if the books were in Latin or Cyrillic. His experiments resulted in abizarre personal orthography. While the nationalist movement was struggling to popularize the name "Romanian" for the shared ethnicity and culture, Vrnav suggested the variant Roumén, later replaced by romn and romn. He proposed that linguists from the Danubian Principalities, as well as from other regions of the country, meet up in congress. The political unification ofMoldavia and Wallachia could be traced back to the cultural "fusion" that Vrnav was promoting in the student colony. The establishment of the Society of the Romanian Students in Paris was the result of his campaigning. After earning Rosetti's full trust, Vrnav became the Society's administrator and provided the enterprise with its first capital.The club meetings were held at Vrnav's house in Quartier de la Sorbonne. The leadership consisted of Rosetti, Ion Ghica, and Vrnav. Rosetti and Vrnav took over most of the business after Ghica left Paris in August 1846. The Society sought patronage from conservative figures in both Principalities. The French poet Alphonse de Lamartine accepted the presidency offered by Vrnav with "the greatest joy and affection". According to some records, Vrnav was accepted into the Masonic lodge of the Grand Orient de France in 1845. Vrnav was a member of the spiritist lodges in Paris, but he never joined the Freemasonry.Despite his public overture to the conservative boyars, he had also joined the Wallachians' secret society, Fria, which was repressed at home but maintained a presence in the diaspora. He noted that Ghica-Comneti and the others had surrendered the Society to backbiters. According to ledgers published by Vrnav, the Society made a yearly profit of 21,200 Francs in subscriptions and donations. New recruits to the nationalist cause, including N. Chinezu and Ianache Lecca, were able to get scholarships from him. As a result of new funding, he and Ghica were able to bail out the student from prison. He was the only doctor of Iai to have survived the epidemic, and he became famous for his advocacy of balneotherapy. He relied on folk medicine to cure the disease, as he did not believe that it was contagious.He published his plans to set up a sanitary service and medical schools. He was the son-in-law of a conservative prince. The Students' Society revolutionary connections caused concern in Russia, which shared custody of the Principalities. The French monarchy was worried by the developments despite Lamartine's support. The society was pushed into the underground by the Guizot government. In early 1847, Vrnav's Library welcomed the French republican historian, and after hearing him speak, Vrnav reportedly stood up and said that all of them would die for their motherland. In November of that year, Vrnav, Blcescu, Lecca and Chinezu had founded.It had a political project to unify and standardize education in both Principalities. The agenda was seen as late by other intellectuals. Vrnav was an active participant in the February Revolution. Vasile Alecsandri and Costache Negri were the ones who voted for the more cautious young boyars. According to a letter sent home by Mihail Koglniceanu's brother Alecu, Vrnav was regarded as "insane" by the more conservative exiles, who feared that he had no grasp of the revolution's weakness. He set up a first-aid station in his library while he was in the National Guard. The Wallachian blue-yellow and theMoldavian blue-red were combined in a single tricolor.TheMoldavian liberal revolution was helped to draft its only manifesto by Constantin. The effort was fed by sending his friends at home issues of the French radical newspapers. As noted by Zahariuc, the activity created the impression that Vrnav was editing the newspaper, and that he was the author of the news in La Démocratie Pacifique. The prince ordered the border guards to prevent Vrnav from enteringMoldavia, just days before the revolutionary attempt. One of his companions, Teodor Rcanu, had to flee after he passed through. Vrnav returned to Bukovina, where other radicals had taken refuge. When other Society members objected to his proposal, he promised to pay back the money using his personal assets.According to some reports, Vrnav returned to his native country with Claude Thions, the Consul toMoldavia of the French Second Republic. Zahariuc thinks they may refer to another Scarlat Vrnav. The other Vrnav, who had been allowed inMoldavia, was given the title of Postelnic and advanced to Sublieutenant in theMoldavian Militia, according to Ion Nistor. The enthronement of Grigore Alexandru Ghica, a more liberal Prince, in late 1849 prevented Vrnav from being repatriated. The Romanian Library went out of business in the summer of 1850 according to a note passed by an adversary. He was asked to pay storage fees for the Marismas collection, but he was able to recover it from Galai. He ordered its restoration and assigned it to two people.The Iai Museum of Art opened for the public in 1860. Sofronie Vrnav was a monk at Neam Monastery after only a few months' novitiate. He was described by Iorga as intelligent and charitable, but also returned to Hilieu, where he enjoyed living among the peasants. He donated 5,000 ducats to the Romanian chapel and gave a Czernowitz townhouse to the library of Bukovina. The establishment of a boys' school in Dorohoi was sponsored by both brothers. As argued by Iorga, the monk was "democratic", and from the 1840s proudly listed himself a taxpayer, causing the latter's annoyance and generating some interest. Vrnav's ideas of self-sacrifice for the greater good and his critique of the boyar class as a drain

texts: onMoldavia's budget were highlighted by the title of his book.Zahariuc thinks that the name invoked Vrnav's responsibilities at his Library. In a letter to George Bari, Vrnav noted that birnic referred to his belief in "peaceful reform", the sort that required material investment rather than bloodshed. Vrnav had a negative reputation due to his violent persecution of the peasants, his disregard for others' property, and his attempts to chase away police agents. He was accused of personally torturing aMoldavian Gendarme for three days. Vrnav could not be tried in a regular tribunal because he had obtained French citizenship. The Dorohoi estate was sold by the Vrnav's in the late 1850s. His land was sold.Vrnav was associated with the National Party, which supported the unification ofMoldavia and Wallachia. In 1858, it was speculated that his turn to religion was a ruse for nationalists to have an agent of influence in the clergy. The Bishop's note suggests that Vrnav wanted to raise the intellectual level of the church by climbing through church ranks. Vrnav turned to monasticism as a result of scandals on his estate, according to an account hostile by Hieromonk Andronic Popovici. Vrnav was faced with a choice between prison and monastery, and chose the latter. Some biographers don't believe that Vrnav was ever married, and he would never allow a woman to visit him. Vrnav was brothers-in-law with Koglniceanu because he was the husband of Eliza Jora.After the Crimean War, Vrnav was once again visible in political life. He sent a stallion to the Captain for his defiance of the Russian Army. Vrnav was one of the Roman County clergymen who signed petitions for union's international recognition by the National Party's Unionist Committee. He became aware of the intimidation tactics used against his colleagues when he became the head of the National Party in Bacu County. As "Hieromonk Varnav", <mask> was a registered elector for the clergy estate in the Diocese of Hui. Iorgu Mavrodin, an anti-unionist, took a seat in the ad-hoc Divan despite their campaigning. The Vrnavs signed a letter of protest against the Education Minister for using his position to canvass anti-unionist votes.The results were canceled due to widespread electoral fraud by the anti-unionists; during the repeat election of September, <mask> himself was documenting instances of authoritarian abuse, describing how peasant voters in Broscui were being threatened with physical harm by a servant of the Mavrodin Vrnav supported Vasile Mlinescu, who became a county delegate to the Divan. The younger Vrnav brother ran in the 1858 elections for Dorohoi in the Divan as a member of the National Party. His campaign was organized by <mask>, who lectured the peasant voters of Hilieu in church and re-baptized the village as "Union Square". The election of Cuza as Domnitor of the United Principalities was praised by <mask> in his letters to Hurmuzachi. Described as an "independent unionist", he agitated in the streets, mocking his opponent Prince Sturdza, who had stood as aMoldavian-and-separatist candidate for the throne. According to literary historian N. Petracu, it was Vrnav who first joked that Strudza's royal cypher, M.S.V., stood for Mai Sti Voinice.V. A. Urechia claimed that he was the father of that joke. Vrnav's favorite slogan was Viaa, averea, onorul, which appeared on painted banners. The Romania to his Motherland pledges his life, fortune, and honor. He donated his belongings to the Paris library in his testament. Vrnav took orders at Secu Monastery a few months after he lived among the monks of Neam. He became a proponent of innovation, creating controversy with his belief that monks should let their estate becurated by the state, his attempt at introducing polyphony, and his moves to do away with Slavonic services. The conflict was worsened when Vrnav used church events to popularize the unionist cause, including among pilgrims from Russia's Bessarabia Governorate.There were situations that appeared to other monks to be "playful and non-canonical". Vrnav donated to the Secu patrimony items replicating the Romanian tricolor scheme. Vrnav was involved in the controversy over the secularization of monastery estates, which doubled as Cuza's attempt to curb Russian influence within the national borders. Vrnav and his followers were enthusiastic about secularization, unlike a circle of conservative monks. Vrnav was assigned to the reform committee by the Education Minister ofMoldavia. Vrnav was the inspector of the peasant schools of Neam County. The establishment of a printing press is one of the proposed innovations he learned at Paris.He was suspected of giving away the monastery's cloth factory and a large press to his patron, Mihail Koglniceanu, as well as to the government. His harsh temper led to many complaints. Vrnav was protected by the new minister. He called the monks the "hirelings of Russia" and scolded them for wanting him tried by a church tribunal. Vrnav accused Popovici of using sermons to promote anti-Cuza sentiment and Russophilia. Sofronie failed in his bid to be elected as Archimandrite, having to share administrative power with a traditionalist. Vrnav set up Noul Neam Monastery outside Kitskany after obtaining Popovici's demotion.Andronic claimed that the establishment was just for the old one. Vrnav's adversaries forged or obtained permission from other administrators to keep the monastery seal on him. Vrnav was arrested by Cantacuzino after he took over the ministry. Vrnav petitioned the Divan with letters taken up in the Tribuna Romn gazette. Vrnav was depicted as a persecutor of his monks, who had interpreted Cuza's policies in order to suppress dissent at the monastery. Vrnav was allowed to return after a few weeks in jail, so that he could witness the great fire which affected Neam in December 1862. He spent some time in Buzu after being forced out of the monastery.He was given the titles of Protosyncellus and Hieromonk. According to church historian Melchisedec tefnescu, Vrnav, who was "detested by the public and disgraced by prince Cuza", settled in Bucharest "providing his services to whoever would need them." He thinks that the former Starets are an extremists and a heretic. Vrnav was employed at Sfntul Dumitru–Pot Church in Lipscani. Vrnav was able to reestablish contacts with his old friend Rosetti because of this position. In January 1864, the unified ministry of education appointed the Hieromonk to a commission that was tasked with assessing calendar reform. His name was flagged and stricken out by the bishop.Vrnav was the auditor of the state charity funds, and he uncovered the misuse of the funds by the political clientele. The case referred to young girls collecting social welfare while serving as mistresses to some in the ministry staff. Vrnav supported Cuza's anti-parliamentary coup. Vrnav enforced censorship laws against Ionescu de la Brad while he was on the Princely Court of Justice. Cuza's uncle Grigore shared a rented house with Sofronie during the coup events. The Domnitor put up a "lit sign" reading "Popa Vrnav zice da or Printele S. Varnav dice" during the June 1864 plebiscite in order to increase his executive power and impose a land reform. The sign was both questionable taste and unintentionally humorous, since it did not clarify what was being said to, concluding: "that great Vrnav, being as zealous as ever, fell from the sky."On the morning of February 11, 1866, Cuza and his authoritarian regime were deposed by a "monstrous coalition" of liberals and conservatives. Vrnav was attacked in his house by supporters of the coup. He was picked up, covered in tricolor cockades, and paraded into the Princely Palace on Mogooaiei Bridge, but he was protected by the council. On a mission to Mount Athos, Vrnav was sent by Rosetti, the Education Minister, to consecrate the Romanian Monastery there. The two youths were training at the seminary. Carol of Hohenzollern, a foreign prince, was selected as the new Domnitor. During the month of April, Vrnav traveled as far south as Ploieti and as far north as Bacu to convince Wallachians andMoldavians to vote for Carol.As the Bishop put up resistance in Iai, he took an emergency trip there and acted as a negotiator between the two camps. He wanted to ingratiate himself with the authorities and be the curator of the Monastery. He was in the city in September to attend the funeral of his friend. He switched back to his civilian commitments and announced his candidacy for an Assembly of Deputies seat in the November 1866 election. The church authorities launched another investigation after this initiative. The last months of Vrnav's life were spent in Tutova County politics, but also in efforts to provide the local hospital. He continued to spread his political and religious beliefs.The "National Liberal Party" was established by Ion, P. Chenciu, A. V. Ionescu, and others. Vrnav is described as a "firebrand antisemite" by his biographer. According to a Jewish man's letter, published in L'Echo Danubien, his "preaching against the Israelites was of the most barbaric kind", disturbing the otherwise tolerant mood of Tutova. Vrnav was a Tutova candidate for both the Senate and Assembly in the December 1867 election. He won a deputy's mandate at Tutova's Fourth College despite being soundly defeated in the previous race. He died without ever taking his seat, after illness that lasted just one day. An autopsy found nothing relevant after the mysterious circumstances.He was sent to Bucharest for a more in-depth toxicological inquest. There was a rumor before his death that his Jewish enemies had poisoned the Starets, who had taken residence at a Jewish-owned hotel. As noted by D. R. Rosetti, "the excitement of the population required intervention of troops sent in from bordering counties, as a safeguard for the Jews, whose lives were being threatened." Military measures were taken to curb the anti-Jewish movements after his death, as noted by Iorga. The "ignorance was exploited" by the enemies of the country, according to the daily Romnul. The paper reported that only the city synagogue and a few Jewish houses had been damaged. According to an early report, Brlad's intelligentsia was involved in calming the populace before "rebels" could destroy the synagogue.A detailed note of protest, signed by 200 notables of Brlad, claimed that the riot had been started by mourners gathering in front of Vrnav's lodging, located opposite a Jewish establishment.

The Assembly was told on February 25 that Jews had participated in the riot. Vrnav's death was likely caused by a disease according to the AIU. By February, the Starets' belongings, including itemized lists of donations for the Transilvania Cultural Society, were in police custody. After Romania gained independence, his brother, who had served in the Assembly and Senate, died.His son, <mask> C. Vrnav, was a civil and military engineer. He pursued a career in politics after managing the School of Bridges, Roads and Mines. The restoration of the painting collection was done by Gheorghe iller. The student library of Vrnav was revived by Iorga during the interwar period. In September 1916, Petre S. Vrnav was decapitated during the bombing of Zimnicea, after the Vrnav line had been extinguished. Iorga claims that both Scarlats had been forgotten.

From 1921 to 1929, he worked for Standard Oil Company in Shreveport, Louisiana. He was admitted to the Louisiana state bar in the late 19th century. He married Virginia Stuart Garrison on December 11, 1922.The General Finance Company was founded in the fall of 1928 by <mask>. Peters, Eric Woods, and Ralph G. Trippett. The General American Oil Company was formed in the summer of 1936 by Peters and Trippett and J. W. Gilliland. The headquarters moved from Shreveport to Dallas in 1937. An ingenious method of acquiring oil- producing properties was used by the new company. The "ABC plan" involved three parties in the purchase transaction to minimize tax liability and the use of interest-bearing oil payments to meet a large percentage of the purchase price. In 1941, he became the president and major stockholder of the General American Oil Company, and in 1950 he was elected chairman of the board. By 1959 his company had acquired 2,990 oil wells in fifteen states and Canada and was drilling for oil in Spain.General American Oil Company was sold in 1983 by Eric Woods. During business trips to Madrid in the 1950s,<mask> insisted on staying at the Ritz Carlton. There is a hotel next to the Museo Nacional del Prado Prado, which inspired an interest in Spanish old masters. He began buying paintings by El Greco and Goya. In order to establish a museum of Spanish art in his wife's memory, he donated his collection and a million dollar endowment to Southern Methodist University. In order to find an outdoor sculpture garden in honor of his second wife, Elizabeth Boggs Bartholow, he donated a collection of contemporary Italian sculpture to SMU. SMU's school of arts was named in 1969 in honor of <mask>, who had given more than $34 million.His second wife encouraged him to collect paintings by French Impressionists and post-Impressionists. Thirty-eight of the fifty-eight works in his private collection were forgeries and many of the earlier works in SMU's Meadows Museum collection were wrongly attributed. After his death, the Dallas Museum of Art was given a million dollars to replace the works that were questionable, and much of the collection was donated to the museum. The family of the recently deceased French artist, Jean Despujols, had hundreds of pieces of original artwork. Despujols lived in Shreveport, Louisiana, until his death, after moving to the United States during World War II. The paintings were paid for by the Despujols family and immediately donated to the college. He gave $200,000 to the college to transform the former administration building into an art gallery and later gave an additional $150,000 to be used for museum maintenance.The museum opened in 1975. He and his first wife established the Meadows Foundation in 1948 to benefit programs throughout Texas in health, education, visual arts, and social services. He was a Trustee of SMU, a Trustee of Republic National Bank of Dallas, and a Trustee of St. Mark's School. In addition to being a Presbyterian, Mason, and member of numerous professional, civic, and social organizations, he was also a member of the Dallas Citizens Council. He received a doctor of humane letters degree from SMU in 1965, and a doctor of laws degree from Centenary College in 1969. He died in a Dallas hospital on June 10, 1978, after an automobile accident in Duncanville, Texas the night before. The Meadows Museum at SMU is considered to be the finest collection of Spanish art outside of Spain thanks to the generosity of the Meadows Foundation.The Preservation Dallas 2021 Achievement Awards include an award of Midcentury Modern Design.

The home stories of the new California writer were praised by the newspapers.

texts: The Permanent Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs was the highest-ranking civil servant in the Foreign Office, and he was a British diplomat who served as the British High Commissioner in Germany after World War II. The elder son of Colonel <mask> and his wife, Mary Hardinge, was born on February 3, 1897 in Wellington, India. His father is a descendant of a Scottish family that settled in Ireland in the 18th century. His mother was the Maid of Honour to Queen Victoria and his grandfather was the governor-general of India. The Viceroy of India was her first cousin and the Permanent Under-Secretary of the Foreign Office. When he was sent to Downside School, he was a Roman Catholic. On the outbreak of the First World War, <mask> volunteered for active service and was commissioned in November 1914.After being wounded in action against the Turks in August 1915, he was accepted by Balliol College, Oxford, in October, but chose to resume his war service early in 1916 when he was employed in propaganda and intelligence activities for the GHQ. He was stationed in the Netherlands as a replacement for Sigismund Payne Best. He ran a network of Belgian resistance agents in German-occupied Belgium. He joined the diplomatic service in July 1919. He returned to London in August 1920 to take up a post in the Western Department of the Foreign Office after being posted to Brazil for a year. He was promoted to first secretary in October 1928. He married the daughter of the army surgeon of 7 Phillimore Terrace, London, on January 10, 1929.The first secretary at the British Embassy in Berlin was posted to <mask>, as was the chargé d'affaires at the Vatican. He got to experience dealing with European dictatorships during this time. During the Second World War, <mask> was once again employed in the propaganda and information work that he had enjoyed so much twenty-five years earlier. He was appointed Director of the Foreign Division of the Ministry of Information in April 1940. He made a major contribution by interviewing Hitler's deputy after he flew to Scotland in May 1941. The Prime Minister, Foreign Secretary, Lord Privy Seal, Clement Attlee, and Minister of Aircraft Production were shown the report. After the end of the war, the British element of the Allied Control Commission for Germany was reorganized as the British political adviser to General Eisenhower.He became the Permanent Under-Secretary for the German Section at the Foreign Office in 1949. The British High Commissioner for Germany was appointed in June of 1950 by King George VI. The negotiation of the Bonn convention, which ended the occupation regime and prepared the way for the rearmament of West Germany, was one of the responsibilities held by <mask>. Sir William Strang was brought back to London to be the Permanent Under-Secretary. Sir William Strang became the Permanent Under-Secretary in 1953. He remembered in his memoirs that he was related to a former PUS, his mother being the first cousin to Charles Hardinge. After spending three years in wartime intelligence and propaganda work, he joined the Office in 1919 and became a foreign adviser to the BBC in 1941.He made clear his detestation of the Nazis when he was head of Chancery in Berlin. His views did not impress the British Ambassador. He was very involved with German affairs after 1945, serving for a year in the Office's Germany Section and then as High Commissioner in Bonn. The Irishman had little time for discussion and had a reputation for being combative. He was not the easiest of men to work with, according to some of his former colleagues, and he would have made an excellent general. In his memoirs, The Inner Circle, he didn't mention the Suez Crisis of 1956, but it was an event that was difficult during his time as PUS. Convinced that the nation's survival was dependent upon the exercise of great power responsibilities, he encouraged the Prime Minister.Both men opposed any 'appeasement' of Nasser because of their experience in the 1930s. The Prime Minister was unhappy with what he perceived to be a pro-Arab stance held by his Foreign Office subordinates. As a result, <mask> became a conduit between himself and other senior officials in the Office. The PUS had to exclude the Foreign Office from the decision-making process during the final crisis. The Suez debacle was a test of Britain's great power status, leading him to believe that no country in the Western world can pursue an independent foreign policy. The liberty of action of each is restricted by the need to get the approval of at least one member of the alliance. The Permanent Under-Secretary was in favor of a strong line against Colonel Nasser.If we sit back while Nasser consolidates his position and gradually acquires control of the oil-bearing countries, he can and is, according to our information, resolved to wreck us. Our gold reserves will disappear if Middle Eastern oil is not sold to us. The sterling area is destroyed if our gold reserves disappear. We will not be able to maintain a force in Germany or anywhere else if the sterling area is destroyed. I don't know if we will be able to pay for our defence. A country that can't provide for its defence is finished. "He was so sharp that he cut", said Sir Evelyn Shuckburgh.<mask>'s reputation as PUS was sullied by the fact that he fulfilled a civil servant's duty of loyalty to his political chiefs. Mussolini: Study of a Demagogue was published posthumously in 1964. He was appointed Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George in 1939, Knight Commander (KCMG) in 1948, Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath (KCB) in 1951, and Knight Grand Cross of the Order of St Michael and St George in 1953.

texts: The Hungarian architect <mask> was known for his ultra-modern style of building. After leaving his previous firm, Probst, Hanbury & Co., he began working on his first project, the New Frontage building of Mr. Lane, Crawford & Co., in 1922. The Capitol Theatre, Sun Sun Department Store, the Bank of East Asia, and the Bank of Communications are his largest works. The younger son in a family of a Jewish merchant and a housewife was named C. H<mask>. The name of the family was changed to make it sound more Hungarian. Kroly finished his secondary education in Vienna and his brother Aurel started working as a doctor. During the summer semester of 1914, <mask> dropped out of the Technical College of Vienna's School of Architecture.He graduated from the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and then went to work in London. Both Kroly and Aurel were drafted during the First World War. Kroly was awarded a silver medal in 1917 for his service in the national guard infantry. He was assigned to a prisoner's war camp after being captured by the Russians. He met the daughter of the well-known architect N.V. Dmitriev while in captivity. He was hired as the language teacher for her two sons from the previous marriage, George and Vladimir, because he spoke many languages. In January 1919, Kroly and Evdokia married, and <mask> adopted their sons.As Russia was getting entrenched in the civil war, a couple and their children left the country and went to China, arriving in Shanghai on September 15, 1920. <mask> was employed at the Property and Estate Department of the British firm Probst, Hanbury & Co., and the family settled on Liyang Lu. <mask> moved to the more central Ferry Road, where they lived in an affluent colonial-style villa with a private tennis court, a large green Packard and several servants. Victor Sassoon was one of the foreign elites that <mask> revolved with as he rose to be a renowned architect. Many of the former prisoners of war were socialized with by the family. C. H<mask> was an architect for 25 years. According to some accounts, he designed more than forty buildings.He was an avid proponent of modernist style, having published a eulogy for it entitled "Modern and Ancient Forms in Local Architecture," in which he expressed his animosity towards historicism. The pulse of our time has to be heard, and from the chaos of bad taste slowly but surely the new style is awakening. Cinema was considered the most important of contemporary entertainments by <mask> because of his commitment to technological progress. More than half of the buildings in China that have been identified are movie theaters. He sat on the selection committees for art shows and was a proficient oil painter. <mask> was an active member of the Jewish community and participated in fund-raising campaigns. The architect's brother escaped the fascist Vienna and joined C. H. <mask> in Shanghai.After the Communist victory in China in 1949, the brothers and their families left for the US and settled in New Jersey. After retiring from architecture, C. H<mask> focused on landscape painting. He died a year after his wife. The studio of C. H<mask> opened in the early months of 1922. It only employed one Russian assistant architect, N. N. Emanoff, but as the practice grew 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 There are 11 people on the staff of C. H. Gonda's firm in the July 1926 business listing. Specializing primarily in commercial buildings, Gonda's studio won numerous design competitions and received major commissions.The modernization and rebuilding of the Lane, Crawford & Co. store on the main shopping promenade in Shanghai was his first known project. Installation of extra large glass required some ingenuous engineering and the use of sturdy concrete pillars sunk into the soil, which is believed to be the largest in the Far East. In 1923, <mask> designed and supervised the construction of the China and the South Sea Bank. He commuted to Amoy several times and was elected as an architect at the Amoy University in 1923. The Sun Sun Department Store was designed by <mask> for the local businessmen. The building cost 4,000,000 taels and was inaugurated in January 1926. The seven-story department store, hotel and amusement centre was topped with a tower.The Sun Sun Co. was called a "spacious, commodious and different department store" by the press. The banking hall without a column was one of the innovative structural decisions made in the building. The project put forward a novel aesthetic which would become <mask>'s signature. The Shahmoon Building was built in 1927 and was praised for its simplicity and restrained ornamentation. The curved facade featured three horizontal divisions topped by a classic stepped-back art Deco pinnacle. The Capitol Theatre was located at the bottom of the Shahmoon Building. The Capitol Theatre was the first air-conditioned movie house in China and the first to feature a pillar-less design.The foyer was decorated with frescoes by the Russian artist Victor Podgoursky and sculptures by the Hungarian George Koppany. The space had concealed lighting and ornamental copper grills. In February 1928, C. H<mask> relocated his practice to the Shahmoon Building and announced a partnership with the German architect. The Grand Theatre opened in December 1928 and was designed by the new studio. The Carlton Ballroom building where the movie house was constructed was called the most luxurious in the Far East. The walls and staircases were treated with filigree flat-oil stain in old gold, the first use of this technique, and they were said to have achieved a noteworthy effect in combining the beautiful old circular staircases, spacious lounges, and rotunda with the most advanced ideas in theatrical design. The 50,000 square-foot warehouse, owned by the German A. Widmann, opened on East Broadway in 1929.The Gonda & Busch partnership ended at the end of the year. The design of the 16-story Grand Hotel was published in December 1929. The lower floors of the hotel had lounges, ballrooms, and concert rooms. The start of the construction for autumn 1930 was anticipated and the height of the building was increased to 21 floors. The construction was supposed to be 900,000 taels, but was later revised to 2,500,000 taels. The project was estimated to cost 200,000 taels. The four-story office building at the corner of Burkill and Park roads was designated to host legal and medical professionals.The projects were not realized. In the French Concession, there was a 7-story apartment house on the corner of Rue Lafayette and Route Pichon. The cost of constructing the building was estimated at 200,000 taels. Multiple designs by C. H<mask> were realized in the 1930s. He took charge of the reconstruction of the Whiteaway, Laidlaw & Co. store in August 1930. Adding steel casement windows and visually updating the faade were intended to increase the amount of natural light. The two top floors of the building were destroyed in a fire in November 1930.The Ohel Rachel Synagogue is next to the Shanghai Jewish School on Seymour Road. The two-story building with a capacity for 250 students was built at a low cost thanks to the donation of the late S.Perry. The building was modeled after the recently built schools in Holland and the USA. The access of maximum daylight and air into the classrooms was prioritized by its construction. Luna Park opened in July 1931 in time for the first Miss Shanghai. The architect said that Luna Park was an outstanding piece of outdoor construction and architectural work. On the first day of 1932, the Cathay Theatre opened on Avenue Joffre, becoming yet another triumph for the architect.A reinforced concrete corner structure clad in red brick was called "extra-super-modernistic," while the "sumptuous interior" struck a viewer "dumb with excitement," although some journalists called it "bizarrely decorated." For the 1,080 seat auditorium, <mask> designed a special chair with added attention to slope, height, comfort and appearance. After two years of construction, the Ritz Theatre in Hongkou district became the largest movie house in the city. Ample space for billboards was reserved for the faade with "severe constructional lines". The building had a large elliptical foyer with a domed ceiling on the ground floor, while the auditorium was underground. Plans for a theatre on the border of the French Concession and the Chinese City were published in 1934. The movie house on the ground floor accommodated 1,100 seats, and there were two floors of offices and three floors of apartments above it.The entrance was protected from the elements by a canopy and three illuminated columns. The stage was extended over the entire front of the auditorium so that it could be used for theatrical performances as well as for movie screenings. <mask>'s expertise in the construction of hotels and movie theatres made him a good choice for other cities in China. The Capitol Theatre in Beijing and the Victoria Theatre in the British Concession were designed by <mask>. The latter building was sited on a corner lot and combined a vertical stepped structure in the center with horizontal banded wings. The interior was lit with concealed lamps and the canopy over the entrance functioned as a lighting feature. C. H<mask> was credited with the Capitol Theatre in Chefoo.The Grand Hotel opened in 1936 on a site of a private villa. There were 30 bedrooms in the four-story building, each with a bathroom and a balcony. The nightclub at the western end of the International Settlement was designed by <mask>'s cousin, entertainer Joe Farren. Structural alterations of a very complicated nature were involved in the conversion of the garden residence into a ballroom and amusement centre. <mask> oversaw the conversion of an indoor shopping arcade in the Bubbling Well Apartments into a 500-seat theatre. The Doumer Theatre opened on Route Doumer in June of 1939. The minimalist interior design had concealed lighting.The Embassy Theatre, which used to be on Bubbling Well Road, was reconstructed into the Roxy Theatre in December of that year. In 1941, <mask> designed the residential compound Hardoon Villas for the China Star Land Investment Co, and retained the original foundations and bearing walls. The Queen's Theatres Inc opened in February 1942, after the construction of the Queen's Theater on Yu Ya Ching Road. The theatre cost 3,000,000 taels to build and had 1,450 seats, which were wide and arranged on a double incline. The architect brought down the ceiling to the proscenium in gradual steps to improve the acoustics. The Royal Theater was built in 1942 in the French Concession on Rue Lafayette. The auditorium had concealed fluorescent light tubes and the lobby was made of rough-texture, multi-colored plaster.The Bank of Communications was designed a decade earlier, but was delayed because of the Japanese occupation.

title: Theodosius I

texts: <mask> I was the Roman emperor from 381 to 395. He was instrumental in establishing the creed of Nicaea as the orthodoxy for Christianity, as he succeeded in a crucial war against the Goths, as well as in two civil wars. Theodosius was the last emperor to rule the entire Roman Empire before it was split into two separate courts. The son of a high-ranking general, <mask> rose through the ranks of the Roman Army. Theodosius had some success against the invading sarmatians when he held independent command. He was forced into retirement and his father was executed. After a series of executions at the emperor Gratian's court, Theodosius regained his position.After the eastern Roman emperor Valens died at the Battle of Adrianople against the Goths, Gratian appointed <mask> as his successor. The Goths were allowed to settle south of the Danube as allies of the Empire because the emperor's resources weren't enough to drive the invaders out. In 386, Theodosius signed a treaty with the Sasanian Empire which partitioned the Kingdom of Armenia and secured a peace between the two powers. <mask> was an ardent supporter of the Christian doctrine of consubstantiality. The latter was confirmed as a heresy by a council of bishops at Constantinople in 381. Although Theodosius did not interfere with the functioning of pagan cults or appoint non-Christians to high offices, he failed to prevent or punish the damaging of several Hellenistic temples of classical antiquity. The western provinces were overseen by the emperors Gratian and Valentinian II, whose sister he married, while the eastern provinces were ruled by Theodosius.The Forum Tauri, the biggest public square in antiquity, was expanded by Theodosius in order to improve his capital and main residence, Constantinople. The two pretenders, Magnus Maximus and Eugenius, were defeated by <mask> after both Gratian and Valentinian were killed. <mask> died a few months after his final victory and was succeeded by his two sons, Honorius in the west and Arcadius in the east. <mask> was said to have been a strict administrator and a Christian. <mask> was seen as a champion of Christian orthodoxy after he died. Modern scholars see this as an interpretation of history by Christian writers, rather than an accurate representation of actual history. Some historians have characterized the revival of classical art as a "Theodosian renaissance".The status of the Goths within the Roman borders caused problems for succeeding emperors. Defending his own interests at the cost of two civil wars has been criticized by Theodosius. His two sons were weak and incapable rulers who presided over a period of foreign invasions and court intrigues which weakened the Empire. The west and east division of the Roman world lasted until the fall of the Western Empire in the 5th century. On January 11, 347, Flavius <mask> was born in Hispania. His father was a successful and high-ranking general under the western Roman emperor, and his mother was called Thermantia. It's not clear if the social status of the family went back several generations or if <mask> the Elder was simply awarded land for his military service.The descendants of the future emperor <mask>, who was Spanish, were associated with the image of fellow Spanish-born emperors in the ancient literary sources and panegyrics. The upbringing of Theodosius is not recorded. Theodoret claimed that the future emperor grew up and was educated in Spain, but his testimony is not reliable. According to a modern historian, Theodosius must have grown up in the army, participating in his father's campaigns throughout the provinces, as was customary at the time for families with a tradition of military service. One source says he received a decent education and developed a particular interest in history, which Theodosius valued as a guide to his own conduct throughout life. Career Theodosius was with his father on his expedition to suppress the "Great Conspiracy", a Celtic and Germanic invasion of the island provinces. After probably serving in his father's staff on further campaigns, Theodosius received his first independent command when he was appointed the dux.He was able to repel an incursion of sarmatians on his sector of the frontier and force them into submission. After the execution of <mask>'s father, the future emperor felt compelled to retire to his estates in Hispania. Historians usually attribute this fall from grace to the machinations of a court group led by Maximinus, a senior civilian official. According to another theory, the future emperor <mask> lost his father, his military post, or both, in the purges of high officials that resulted from the accession of the 4-year-old emperor Valentinian II. During his time away from service in Hispania, Theodosius was said to have received threats from those responsible for his father's death, but he was not removed from power until April 373. The emperor Gratian immediately began replacing Maximinus and his associates with relatives of Theodosius in key government positions, indicating the family's full rehabilitation, and by 377 Theodosius himself had regained his command against the sarmatians. The news that the eastern Roman emperor, Valens, had been killed at the Battle of Adrianople in August 372 against invading Goths came as a shock.The disastrous defeat left much of Rome's military leadership dead, discredited, or barbarian in origin, and <mask> became the establishment's choice to replace Valens and assume control of the crisis. The council of officials at Sirmium invested Theodosius in the purple with the consent of the western emperor Gratian. After the debacle at Adrianople, Theodosius faced the problem of how to check the bands of Goths that were laying waste to the Balkans. The western emperor Gratian surrendered to Theodosius control of the prefecture of Illyricum, giving him full charge of the war effort. Theodosius was 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 Even self-mutilation did not exempt men from service. Theodosius admitted many non-Roman auxiliaries into the army.Some foreign recruits were exchanged for Roman garrison troops in Egypt. <mask> and his generals, based at Thessalonica, won some minor victories over individual bands of raiders, but suffered at least one serious defeat in 380, which was blamed on the treachery of the new barbarian recruits. After recovering from a life-threatening illness, Theodosius asked to bebaptized. The military situation was found to be stable enough for <mask> to move his court to Constantinople, despite some obscure victories being recorded in official sources. In January 381, the emperor received the visit and submission of a minor Gothic leader, Athanaric. Theodosius no longer believed that the Goths could be completely ejected from Roman territory. After Athanaric died, the emperor gave him a funeral with full honors and signaled to the enemy that the Empire was going to negotiate terms.The Goths were driven out of Macedonia and Thessaly into Thrace by reinforcements from Gratian, while <mask> or one of his generals repelled an incursion by a group ofSciri and Huns. After several months of negotiations, the Romans and Goths concluded a settlement on 3 October 382. The Goths were allowed to settle some Roman land south of the Danube in return for military service to Rome. The terms were favorable to the Goths because they were entrenched in Roman territory and had not been driven out. Instead of fully submitting to Roman authority, they were allowed to remain independent under their own leaders. The Goths would mostly fight for the Romans as a national contingent, rather than being fully integrated into the Roman forces. According to the Chronicon Paschale, <mask> celebrated his quinquennalia on January 19th at Constantinople and raised his oldest son to co-emperor.Constantia died sometime in 383. Laeta's father was a consularis of Roman Syria. The appointment of Themistius as emperor in Constantinople in 383 was preceded by the acclamation of Magnus Maximus as emperor in Britain. On August 25, 383, Gratian was killed by Andragathius, the magister equitum of the rebel emperor during the rebellion of Magnus Maximus. Constantia's body arrived in Constantinople on September 12th and was buried in the Church of the Holy Apostles on December 1st. Gratian was deified. Due to ongoing military inadequacy, <mask> opened negotiations with the Persian emperor Shapur <mask>.Theodosius received an embassy from Constantinople in 384. Theodosius tried to curb Maximus's ambitions by appointing Flavius Neoterius as the prefect of Italy. <mask> met his co-emperor in northern Italy. The peace agreement was brokered by Theodosius. According to Peter Heather, <mask> I refused to appoint a recognized counterpart in the west because he wanted his two sons to inherit half of the empire. The bureaucrats and military officers who felt they were not getting a fair share of the imperial cake gave him plenty of support. Honorius, <mask>'s second son, was born on December 9, 384.The death of Aelia Flaccilla occurred by 386. Her funeral oration was delivered by Gregory of Nyssa and she was buried at Constantinople. There is a statue of her in the Senate. Serena was married to the magister militum, Stilicho. Pulcheria died in the beginning of 386. More Goths were defeated and many were settled in the area. Constantinople celebrated a Roman triumph over the Gothic Greuthungi.Work began on the great triumphal column in the Forum of Theodosius in Constantinople. The quinquennalia of Arcadius was celebrated in Constantinople. There was an uprising at the end of the month. The Peace of Acilisene with Persia was signed at the end of the Roman–Persian Wars. The powers of the ancient Kingdom of Armenia were divided by the terms of the agreement. The court and Theodosius were located in Milan and northern Italy at the end of the 400s. According to Peter Brown, gold was being made in Milan by those who owned land as well as those who came with the court for government service.Great landowners took advantage of the court's need for food, turning agrarian produce into gold, while oppressing and misusing the poor who grew it and brought it in. The decline of the Roman empire is linked to the avarice of the rich of this era according to Brown. The men were described as creating a court where "everything was up for sale". The need for the rich to care for the poor was presented by the bishop of Milan as a consequence of the unity of all Christians. The political culture of the day was called the "advocacy revolution of the later Roman empire". The revolution was fostered by the imperial government and INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals INRDeals The late Roman state remained impervious to Christianity in the area of taxation and the treatment of fiscal debtors.The peace with Magnus Maximus was broken in 387, and Valentinian escaped to the east with Justina, and appealed to <mask> for help. He celebrated his decennalia on January 19th in Thessalonica. The first time <mask> was a diplomat was in 388. The first child of Galla and Theodosius was a boy named Gratian. The meeting of Christians deemed heretics was banned by Valentinian after Theodosius recovered Italy from Magnus Maximus.

In August/September of that year, Arbogast killed Flavius Victor, Magnus Maximus's young son and co-emperor. Damnatio memoriae was pronounced against them. There was a massacre of local civilians by Roman troops in Greece. April of 395 is the best estimate of the date. The murder of a Roman official is thought to be the reason for the massacre. Most scholars see the Historia ecclesiastica written by Sozomen as the most reliable source, as it contains the identity of the murdered Roman official as Butheric.Butheric arrested and jailed the charioteer after he tried to rape a cup-bearer. When Butheric refused to release the chariot racer, a general revolt cost him his life. Doleal says the name "Butheric" indicates he might have been

texts: a Goth, and that the general's ethnicity could have been a factor in the riot, but none of the early sources actually say so. There are no accounts from sources. Church historians wrote the earliest accounts during the fifth century. The moral accounts emphasize imperial piety and ecclesial action. The events move into legend in art and literature very quickly.Doleal says that there is another problem created by aspects of these accounts conflicting with one another to the point of being mutually exclusive. The basic account of the massacre is accepted by most classicists, although they still dispute who was responsible for it, what motivated it, and what impact it had on subsequent events. When the massacre occurred, <mask>' role was not in Thessalonica. There was a court in Milan. According to several scholars, Theodosius ordered the massacre in excess of "volcanic anger". The less reliable fifth century historian, Theodoret, also puts all the blame on the Emperor. Mark Hebblewhite and N. Q. are other scholars.Do not agree with King. The emperor had to listen to his ministers before acting, according to Peter Brown.

Peter Brown thinks that what was planned as a killing got out of hand. According to Doleal, Sozomen said that the soldiers made random arrests in the Hippodrome to perform a few public executions as a demonstration of imperial disfavor, but the citizens objected. Doleal suggests that the soldiers were surrounded by angry citizens, panicked, and forcibly cleared the Hippodrome at the cost of thousands of lives.According to McLynn, <mask> was unable to impose discipline on the troops and covered that failure by taking responsibility for the massacre on himself. The bishop of Milan, Ambrose, was away from court. He wrote <mask> a letter offering a different way to save face and restore his public image after being informed of the events in Thessalonica. Ambrose told the emperor he would not give communion until a demonstration of penitence was done. <mask> came to church without his imperial robes until Christmas, when Ambrose admitted him to communion, according to Wolf Liebeschuetz. The image of the mitered prelate braced in the door of the cathedral in Milan blocking <mask> from entering is a product of the imagination of Theodoret who wrote of the events of 395 "using his own ideology to fill the gaps in the historical record". Peter Brown says there was no confrontation at the church door.The encounter at the church door has been known as a fiction. According to Wolfe Liebeschuetz, Ambrose advocated a course of action that avoided the kind of public humiliation Theodoret describes. The massacre of Thessalonica has stained history's assessment of Theodosius' character. Williams describes Theodosius as a man who was vigorous in pursuit of any important goal, but also a man who contrasted the "inhuman massacre of the people of Thessalonica" with the generous pardon of the citizens of Antioch. Modern scholarship has begun to question Theodosius' responsibility for those events. Ambrose' action after the fact has been cited as an example of the church's dominance over the state in antiquity. It would be pointless to cite the authorities because the assumption is so widespread.There is no evidence for Ambrose to exert any influence over <mask>. There is no evidence that Theodosius favored Ambrose over anyone else. Ambrose had been a bishop for 16 years and had seen three emperors die before Theodosius. Ambrose used his "considerable qualities" and "considerable luck" to survive these political storms. <mask> was in his 40s, had been emperor for 11 years, and had won a civil war. As a leader of the western part of Greece, Boniface Ramsey left a mark on history. McLynn claims that the relationship between <mask> and Ambrose became myth after their deaths.The documents revealing the relationship between these two men do not show the personal friendship the legends portray. The documents are more about the negotiations between the Roman state and the Italian Church. <mask> left his trusted general Arbogast, who had served in the Balkans after Adrianople, to be a militum for the Western emperor. The death of Valentinian II was either suicide or part of a plot by Arbogast. The man was found hanged in his room after a fight with Arbogast. Arbogast said that it had been a suicide. The death of Valentinian left Arbogast in an "untenable position" according to Stephen Williams.Without the ability to issue edicts and rescripts from a legitimate emperor, he had to continue governing. The non-Roman background of Arbogast made him unable to assume the role of emperor himself. Arbogast had the master of correspondence, Eugenius, proclaimed emperor in the West at Lugdunum. At least two embassies went to Theodosius to explain events, one of them Christian in make-up, but they were sent home without achieving their goals.

The prefect of Italy who was appointed by Theodosius defected to their side.Both sides prepared for war. The Goths, who had settled in the eastern empire as foederati, were part of the large army that Theodosius gathered. The battle began with Theodosius' assault on Eugenius's forces. Thousands of Goths died, and in Theodosius's camp, the loss of the day was bad. Theodoret said that Theodosius was visited by two "heavenly riders all in white" who gave him courage. On the next day, <mask>'s forces were aided by a natural phenomenon known as the Bora, which can cause hurricanes. The line was disrupted by the blow against the forces of Eugenius.Eugenius was captured and executed after his camp was attacked. <mask> defeated Eugenius at the Battle of the Frigidus. Arbogast took his own life on 8 September. On January 1, 395, Honorius arrived in Mediolanum and a victory celebration was held. <mask>'s wife died at the end of April when he was away at war, according to Zosimus. According to a number of Christian sources, Eugenius cultivated the support of the pagan senators by promising to restore the altar of Victory and provide public funds for the maintenance of cults if they would support him and if he won the coming war against Theodosius. The ultimate source for this is Ambrose's biographer Paulinus the Deacon, who he argues fabricated the entire narrative and deserves no credence.Historian Renee Salzman says that there are two new texts that reinforce the view. The idea of pagans united in a "heroic and cultured resistance" who rose up against the ruthless advance of Christianity in a final battle near Frigidus was said to be by Maijastina Kahlos, a historian and Docent of Latin language and Roman literature at the University of Death <mask> had a disease. His body lay in state in the palace in Milan for forty days after he died. His funeral was held in the cathedral. In the presence of Stilicho and Honorius, Bishop Ambrose gave a speech in which he praised the suppression of paganism by <mask>. He was buried in the Church of the Holy Apostles in Constantinople on November 8, 395.He was deified. He was buried in a porphyry sarcophagus that was described in a work by Constantine VII. Around the year 400, art of the era reflects optimism among traditional polytheists according to art historian David Wright. The renaissance of classical styles of art in the Theodosian period is often referred to in modern scholarship as the Theodosian renaissance. A column and a triumphal arch were added to the Forum of Theodosius. The obelisk of <mask>, the city of Aprodisias' statue of the emperor, the columns of Theodosius and Arcadius, and the dyptich of Probus were all commissioned by the court. The obelisks were shipped from Karnak to Alexandria by the Romans.The Lateran obelisk was shipped to Rome by Constantius II. The Romans learned from the Egyptians how to transport large heavy objects, so they built a doubleship version of the Nile vessels. The obelisk was moved to Constantinople because of Theodosius' victory over the tyrants. The Hippodrome of Constantinople was once the center of Constantinople's public life and is now known as the obelisk of <mask>. The technology used in the construction of siege engines made it difficult to re-erect the monolith. The obelisk's white marble base is covered in bas-reliefs depicting Theodosius' imperial household and the engineering feat of removing it to Constantinople. The imperial family is separated from the nobles by a cover over them as a mark of their status.It has served as the key monument in identifying a so-called Theodosian court style, which is usually described as a "renaissance" of earlier Roman classicism. The controversy about the nature of the divine trinity and its accompanying struggles for political influence began in Alexandria before the reign of Constantine the Great, according to John Kaye. Athanasius became the representative of orthodoxy after Alexander's death. Arius claimed that the Father created the Son. The Son was not equal to the Father because he had a beginning and was not eternal. Father and Son were not the same. The Christology spread quickly through Egypt and Libya.The people were divided into parties, sometimes demonstrating in the streets in support of one side or the other. The Council of Nicaea's rules were not universally accepted, as Arnold Hugh Martin Jones states. The Councils at Ariminum, Nike, and Constantinople were held after the word "homoousios" was used in the Creed. The creeds of these councils are not considered to be compatible with the Nicene Creed in the tradition of the Church. After Alexander died, Athanasius became the "champion of orthodoxy" and was at the center of the controversy. To Athanasius, Arius' interpretation of Jesus' nature could not explain how he could accomplish the redemption of humankind. According to Athanasius, God had to become a human in order for humans to be divine.The teaching of Athanasius was influential in the West. According to the Edict of Thessalonica issued by Theodosius, only Christians who believed in the consubstantiality of God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit could style themselves "catholic". The idea that the edict was a key step in establishing Christianity as the official religion of the Empire seems to have gone largely unrecognized outside the capital. The first known secular Roman law to positively define a religious orthodoxy is the edict. <mask> fell under the influence of a Nicene lobby during his stay at Thessalonica. According to Thornton Robinson, Theodosius began taking steps to suppress his beliefs after he wasbaptized. Two days after arriving in Constantinople, Theodosius expelled the Homoian bishop and appointed Meletius and Gregory of Nazianzus as his successors.During a severe illness, the bishop Ascholius of Thessalonicabaptized Theodosius. In May 381, Theodosius summoned a new ecumenical council at Constantinople to repair the divide between East and West on the basis of Nicene orthodoxy. The council defined orthodoxy as equal to the Father and the Holy Spirit. The council condemned the Apollonarian and Macedonian heresies and ruled that Constantinople was second in precedence to Rome. Policy towards paganism seems to have adopted a cautious policy towards traditional non-Christian cults, reiterating his Christian predecessors' bans on animal sacrifice, divination, and apostasy, while allowing other pagan practices to be performed publicly and temples to remain open. He voiced his support for the preservation of temple buildings, but failed to prevent the damaging of many holy sites, images and objects of piety, including his own officials. The festivals associated with pagan holidays continued even after Theodosius turned them into workdays.A number of laws against paganism were issued towards the end of his reign, but historians have tended to downplay their practical effects and even the emperor's direct role in them. There is no evidence that Theodosius pursued an active and sustained policy against the traditional cults. There is evidence that Theodosius tried to prevent the pagan population from feeling bad about him. Cynegius, who had vandalized a number of pagan shrines in the eastern provinces, was replaced by a moderate pagan who moved to protect the temples. During his first official tour of Italy, the emperor won over the pagan lobby in the Roman Senate by appointing its foremost members to important administrative posts. The last pair of pagan consuls in Roman history were nominated by Theodosius. According to contemporary archaeology, the area with the most destruction against temples by Christians took place in the territory around Constantinople in the diocese
