title: Ferdinand von Prondzynski

texts: <mask> is a former university leader in Ireland and Scotland, a lawyer and legal academic, and a high-profile public commentator. He was the Principal and Vice-Chancellor of the Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen, Scotland, and the second President of Dublin City University in Ireland. Prondzynski is an authority on employment and commercial law and on certain EU and competition policy matters, as well as an active commentator on aspects of academic affairs and public policy. The earliest records go back to 1366, but <mask>'s family can be traced back to 1550. <mask>, a 19th-century Prussian general from Groschowitz, is a direct descendant of him. Konrad started a cement business in the late 19th century and the town square in Groszowice is named after him. Alfred, <mask>'s grandfather, was wounded in the First World War and died from his wounds in 1932.<mask>'s father, Hans, was a young man when his father remarried in the 1930s to a retired admiral who worked for the Ministry of Labour. The Iron Cross Class 1 was awarded to <mask> <mask>, who was a captain in the German army during the Second World War. After the war, he lost his lands in Poland and moved to the new West Germany where he studied law and became a director of Dyckerhoff AG. He married the daughter of the family at the family residence at Breese im Bruche in Lower Saxony (Hanover) in 1950, and they had four children. <mask> <mask> <mask> was born on June 30, 1954. The family home at Breese, Germany had to be partially demolished in 1958 because of structural damage to two wings during the war and immediate post-war years, and Hans and <mask> and their two sisters moved to a farming estate in Ireland in 1961. According to Prondzynski, his father's poor health, lack of funds to maintain Breese im Bruche, and a desire for a less stressed lifestyle led to him and his wife moving to the Knockdrin estate near Mullingar.After a few years, Hans moved back to Germany and to Dyckerhoff AG, but the family kept their new estate in Ireland, and Hans retired to there in 1982. He died in Ireland after a long illness. She lived in Knockdrin until she died. <mask> <mask> was educated at Headfort School, Kells, County Meath, after his family moved to Ireland in 1961. After the family returned to Germany in 1968, Prondzynski attended the Thomas-Morus Gymnasium in Oelde, where he passed his Abitur examination in 1972. From 1972 to 1974 <mask> worked for Dresdner Bank AG in Germany. He graduated from Trinity College, Dublin, with a B.A., after not planning on going to college.And LL.B. There are degrees. He obtained a PhD in Law from the University of Cambridge in 1983. In 1976, <mask> became an Irish citizen. Heather Ingman is an academic author and novelist, and she has also been an occasional writer in the Irish Times. Sebastian and Theo are the sons of Ingman and <mask>. Prondzynski is a member of the Church of Ireland and a fan of the football club.Several calendars of his photographs were published by DCU. Knockdrin Castle and estate, near Mullingar, County Westmeath, Ireland, was sold in January 2021. In 1980 <mask> was appointed as a lecturer in the School of Business Studies at Trinity College, Dublin, and in 1987 he became a Fellow of the College. He gained the nickname "the Red Baron" due to his sympathetic approach to the trade union movement and his views on industrial relations and labour law matters. The field of industrial relations and employment law has been influenced by <mask>'s published academic output. In his early work, he advocated for the removal of the law from industrial relations in favor of bargaining. His book Freedom of Association and Industrial Relations was the most elaborate expression of his views during this period.He argued for a framework of employment regulation that took account of economic pressures and the need to maintain competitive conditions as his views began to change. He contributed to a major international book in 2000 in which he argued that the law should protect employees' rights, but also promote business success and economic growth. He has published a number of books and articles on social policy and the importance of legal protection against discrimination. He achieved national status as an authority on employment and commercial law in Ireland, co-authoring the first academic textbook on Irish employment law. He is an expert on European Union matters. <mask> was the Professor of Law in the University of Hull from 1991 to 2000 and also the Dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences. The British-American Business Council was chaired by him.Danny O'Hare had been president of Dublin City University for 22 years before <mask> was appointed as the second president. He became known for his comments on higher education and other public policy issues. In his role as president, he oversaw improvements to the campus facilities for both students and staff. Though seen by some as one of the new breed of so-called'reforming' university presidents, on the whole he avoided the large-scale structural reforms that have characterized the leadership in other third-level institutions. The purpose of these was to reinforce and develop the reputation of the university, and to influence the university's research mission, but the appointment of 'Theme' was not intended to do that. Prondzynski oversaw the growth of the student population and the performance in attracting research funding. The Programme for Research in Third Level Institutions and the Science Foundation Ireland programme for Centres for Science, Technology and Innovation were some of the grants secured by DCU.Two of the largest SFI grants went to projects. The drive to develop innovation in teaching and learning continued. In 2004, a new post of Vice- President for Learning Innovation was established, and in 2007, the university adopted a new "Academic Framework for Innovation". Even when student applications nationally were decreasing, the pattern of DCU being successful in recruiting students continued under <mask>'s presidency. The Times Higher Education World Rankings ranked the university at number 300 in 2007. The university rose in the rankings in 2009. According to a newspaper profile, <mask> was liked by colleagues even when there were disagreements.There was controversy around three employment law cases during his tenure. Three members of academic staff, two senior, at the university, received much media attention and the university lost all of its appeal at the Supreme Court. There was controversy over new contracts of employment and negotiations on a new procedure, which had begun before <mask>'s term of office but continued throughout his tenure without resolution. A vote of no confidence in the conduct of negotiations by senior management of the university was narrowly passed by those staff who voted, while several parliamentary questions were raised on this matter. The Executive elections at the university were briefly delayed when a senior academic was nominated as a candidate, though the elections proceeded and the candidate was not elected. Robert Gordon University <mask> became Principal and Vice-Chancellor of the Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen, Scotland at the end of March 2011. He was appointed to chair a national review of university governance by the Scottish Cabinet Secretary for Education and Lifelong Learning in June 2011.Robert Gordon University was declared to be a leader in the development of Scottish economic and cultural growth by <mask> in a number of interviews. He became associated with the proposal in 2012 due to Sir Ian Wood, the university's billionaire Chancellor. The City Council was urged to adopt the proposal for a new 'City Garden' in a letter signed by him. A high-profile local campaign by the university led to the regeneration of the Aberdeen city centre. He is a board member of the City Centre Regeneration Board. The value for money of university salaries was commented on by Prondzynski. Prondzynski has made several public statements questioning an aspect of British public policy designed to focus research funding on a small number of older universities, arguing that all excellent research should have the potential to be funded regardless of the university that hosts it.The university had achievements and issues during <mask>'s tenure. RGU was the best modern university in the UK according to the Times Good University Guide and the second best in the UK according to the Guardian University Guide. According to an analysis published by the Higher Education Statistics Agency, graduates from full-time undergraduate degrees in each of the last three years had among the top 20 employment rates of any university in the UK. RGU fell from #36 in the 2010 edition of The Guardian University Guide to #78 in the current edition, as well as seeing a decline in performance in The Complete University Guide. The Scottish Ministers commissioned <mask> to chair a review of higher education governance in 2011. Student and staff representatives welcomed the review. The University and College Union raised concerns about the appointment of <mask> to chair the review because of an ongoing dispute about recognition of the union at his university.The UCU strongly endorsed the published report after the dispute was resolved. The report was published by the Scottish government in February. Some of the recommendations in the report were seen as radical by some, but the report was generally well received. The report suggested that Scotland's universities should act in a transparent and accountable manner. The report recommended that universities should maintain and defend academic freedom. The Cabinet Secretary for Education and Lifelong Learning announced to the Scottish Parliament that the government would implement the findings of the review. The Scottish Government published a consultation document in November of last year which stated its intention to introduce a statute.An internal review was launched after a whistle blower flagged that RGU's newly appointed Vice-Principal for Research, Gordon McConnell, a senior academic and formerly the Head of the Office of the President at DCU, was co-director with Prondzynski in the company. The information had been in the public domain since 2009, and was accessible to anyone by a free search in the Irish register of companies. The appointment was valid and the non-declaration was a genuine omission or oversight that did not warrant much action. This finding lead to a letter of resignation from another of the three Vice-Principals, who condemned RGU for failing to punish the pair, stating that this damaged the institution. He made it clear that the issue was not personal to the appointed fellow vice-principal, and that an alternative appointment process would have been instigated if the information had been made available at the right time. ... This outcome will undoubtedly drive a wedge between the staff and members of the Executive and the irony is that Gordon may have been appointed through such an alternative process.Our stock is very low. On August 9th, RGU announced that Prondzynski would step down on August 31st. The outcome of the investigation has caused division and therefore had a damaging impact on the university's reputation, which I personally hugely regret, and that's why I resigned. Mary Senior of the University and College Union said that it was ironic that while he made such a huge contribution to improving university governance, his former university is shoe-horned. The Vice-Principal withdrew his resignation and RGU accepted it. The Chair of the RGU Board of Governors commented that under his leadership, the University has had significant successes and has been recognised for its sector leadership in the national skills agenda, for the continuing development of student-centred excellence and for industry-focused research and support. RGU is recognised for its leading position in the rankings for graduate employment for students, has received a 'gold' ranking in the Teaching excellence Framework, and leads the way in graduate apprenticeships.Mary Senior commented that it was disappointing to learn of Prof <mask>'s resignation. He has made a significant contribution to higher education in Scotland despite not agreeing on everything. <mask> was an author of a weekly column in the Irish Times newspaper. He wrote about the benefits of immigration, the risks to universities caused by the failure of the Irish Department of Education and Science to prioritize higher education, and the need to recover civility and courtesy in society. The 'free fees' scheme in Ireland, under which Irish and EU students pay only "registration" fees, he argued that too much of the money was spent on wealthier people who did not need it. The points system in Ireland determines student entry into university courses. He believes that there are too many lawyers educated and trained at Irish universities and that there is a need for a re-think.In March 2012 he gave evidence to the Scottish Parliament's Education and Culture Committee about the number of law graduates in Scotland. Higher levels of entrepreneurship and interaction between universities and industry were argued for by him. The National Executive Council of Ibec was a member of the Irish National Competitiveness Council. He chaired the Research Advisory Committee of Ireland's National Disability Authority for two years. He was the director of the Irish National Chamber Choir from 2000 to 2010. He was appointed to the board of directors of Educate Together in 2011. He is not an executive director of the company.The Royal Irish Academy is one of the highest academic honours in Ireland. H.E. invested in Prof. <mask> in September of 2010. The Military and Hospitaller Order of St Lazarus of Jerusalem has a Knight of Justice named Don Carlos de Gereda y de Borbn. <mask> <mask> is the author of a biography on The Robert Gordon University.

title: Max Kaser

type: paraphrased

texts: <mask> was a German professor of Jurisprudence who taught at several universities. His main focus was on Roman law. He was a member of many societies. He was awarded doctorates from ten different universities on three different continents. An eleventh degree from the Jurisprudence faculty at the University of Regensburg was posthumously awarded in 1999. The author of the first writings on the step by step progression from classical legal concepts to modern European civil law is <mask>. His text books on Roman civil law and modern civil procedure break new ground in presenting the historical evolution of legal concepts and principals, incorporating analyses and commentaries on written sources, and using research techniques that he himself (with others) developed.<mask> was born in Vienna where his father worked as a university tutor. Many generations of Austrian government administrators, lawyers, physicians, army officers and artists, as well as his father's and mother's side of the family, were traced back through his ancestral roots. The family relocated to that city after his father accepted an appointment as an extraordinary professor at the University of Graz. The family moved again in 1914 after Dr.<mask> accepted a full professorship at the University of Czernowitz. After the First World War, <mask>'s family moved frequently between Salzburg and Czernowitz, as his father pursued his career as a university professor. Between 1924 and 1928, <mask> studied Jurisprudence at the University of Graz. He was taught by Artur Steinwenter who taught Roman law, and whom Kaser would always single out as a powerfully positive influence.Steinwenter's death in 1959 ended the friendship between the two. Walter is a life-long friend of the student contemporary who later achieved eminence as a legal scholar and lawyer. He received his doctorate in November of 1928. <mask>'s grandfather received a doctorate in Jurisprudence from the University of Graz. Steinwenter recommended that <mask> switch to Munich in 1929 where he was supported by a scholarship. He was a student at the Institute for Papyrus Research and Legal History in antiquity. The primary focus of his research was a question arising from the Roman civil law of property which two years later formed the basis for <mask>'s habilitation.He worked as a research assistant to Otto Eger at the University of Giessen, where he delivered a programme of lectures during the winter 1930/31 term. The habilitation degree Kaser received in June 1931 was supervised by Eger. He took over from Hans Kreller who had moved to Tbingen when he accepted the teaching post at Mnster. He accepted a full professorship in Civil and Roman law in October 1933. He would stay at Mnster until 1959. His strong preference for Roman law was never in question despite his duties requiring him to take interest in Civil law. He was made dean of the law faculty in 1937.Through the energy and ability that he brought to the job, the confidence of his mostly conservative senior colleagues, and quietly resisting pressure to pander to Germany's increasingly institutionalised Nazism, he won and retained the post. In 1933, <mask> met Erna Lehnig, whose mother's family DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch Her father's family DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch DropCatch By the end of 1933, the two were married, demonstrating through their "Austrian-North German partnership" a "Perfect harmony" as Kaser later wrote. It was a loving partnership. Erna Kaser ran the house, even to the point, of taking care of the family's annual tax declaration, leaving her husband to concentrate on his work at the university. A son and daughter were born in rapid succession after the marriage.<mask>'s academic career and reputation continued to grow. He received attractive offers of professorships, but he turned them down. In every case, he preferred to stay at Mnster "at his own wish", as he expressed the matter in a letter to a colleague. <mask> was exempt from military service in 1939 due to a serious heart defect. He was conscripted into the army in November 1943 as the slaughter of war intensified. After being engaged in anti-aircraft warfare, he was sent back to Mnster where he worked as a clerk. The army allowed him to speak at the university for two days each week.The Americans came in 1945. <mask> was a prisoner of war after the war ended. After his release in 1946, he was held in various American and French camps. He went back to teach at the university. The National Socialists had differing views on Roman law. They decided to replace the German legal code with their own People's Legal code which would remove the influence of Roman Law over the German system. They were gone now.The constraints on <mask>'s lecturing, writing and networking could now be removed. His reputation continued to grow. There were offers of professorships from Marburg. There were also offers from Gttingen and Vienna. He did not accept all of the offers before 1959. When <mask> accepted an invitation to move in 1959 it was to take a professorship at the University of Hamburg where he had a successful career in teaching and research. Three of his personally supervised habilitation students went on to become professors of jurisprudence.In his obituary, Medicus surmised that <mask>'s decision to retire from his professorship at Hamburg had been accelerated by the student unrest of 1968. He was unable to understand either the methods employed or the objectives of those involved. His retirement from Hamburgers did not end his career as a law professor at the top university. <mask> held the teaching chair for Roman and Civil law at the University of Salzburg from 1971 to 1976. He got the position after talking to Theo and Wolfgang. He let his friends know that he enjoyed teaching Roman law to students who were not interested in studying in the German system. He taught at Salzburg until 1985 when he was almost 80.<mask> was a co-producer of the ZRG, a renowned journal for scholars and students of historical jurisprudence. In 1959 <mask> became a full member of the Gttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. He became a foreign member of the academy in 1960. He became a member of the Academy of sciences in 1968. He became a foreign member of the Lombard Academy of Sciences and Letters in 1969. He became a member of the Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei in 1971. He became a member of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and Humanities in 1972He became a member of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities in 1973. He became a member of the British Academy in 1973. He was a member of the Society for the promotion of Roman Studies in London. He became a member of the Academy of Athens in 1988. The "<mask> Kaser Seminar" at the University of Salzburg is named after <mask>. The seminar's library was set up in 1966 and contains books, newspapers, and other printed material by <mask>. The collection is kept current.Roman Civil Law and Roman legal history are covered in <mask>'s text books. They have been translated into many other languages. <mask> received a lot of doctorates. The Austrian Academy of Sciences, the Lincean Academy, and the Academy of Athens have members who died in 1997.

title: Daniel Boyarin

texts: <mask> is a historian of religion. He was born in New Jersey and holds dual US and Israeli citizenship. He is a professor in the Department of Near Eastern Studies and Rhetoric at the University of California, Berkeley. He is married to a lecturer at UC Berkeley. They have two boys. Jonathan Boyarin is also a scholar and has written with his brother. Boyarin attended high school in New Jersey.Boyarin was in the school's hall of fame in 2009. Before earning his degree at the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, Boyarin was educated at a number of institutions. He taught at several universities, including the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Bar-Ilan University, Yale, Harvard, and the University of California at Berkeley. He is on the Advisory Board of the journal Henoch. He was a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. A number of Boyarin's students have Rabbinics posts at American universities. The opening scene of Footnote features a discussion of the merits of Boyarin's scholarship.His first book, Sephardic Speculation, examines the Talmudic methodology of Canpanton. Boyarin's first English book, Intertextuality and the Reading of Midrash, is credited with introducing Literary Theory into the field of Rabbinics. A Radical Jew: Paul and the Politics of Identity argues that misreading of Paul the Apostle's universalist philosophy eventually led to violent coercion. In Unheroic Conduct, Boyarin's interests mesh with those of others who are interested in the relationship between psychoanalysis and Judaism. The fear Sigmund Freud had of being classified as feminine in the context of the times in which he lived resulted in the Holocaust. According to Boyarin, passivity is an essential feature of Judaism, and that because this is a quality that is held in common with homosexuality, it has the power to inspire panic among Jews who fear the censorious gaze of authority. Freud conceived of the Oedipus complex as a way of deferring the charge of Jewish femininity by offering proof that Jews had within them the desire to kill.Boyarin supports his argument that passivity is essential to Judaism with the observation that Judaism worships a powerful male authority figure who demands obeisance, and with documentary evidence such as Haggadot, prayer guides for the Jewish Passover ritual of the Seder, that show the wise son as Boyarin believes that Zionism is at odds with what he believes to be the authentic and persistent current of scholarship that defines the tradition, as he feels that the necessary element of activity and war is at odds with what he believes to be the authentic and persistent current of scholarship. According to Martha Nussbaum, the true man sits still all day with a book, and has the bodily shape of someone who does that. The partition of Judaism and Christianity into two separate and distinct religions was examined in Border Lines. The dialogic structure in Plato and the Babylonian Talmud is explored in Socrates and the Fat Rabbis. The argument that "New Testament" ideas can be found in long-standing Jewish traditions is developed in The Jewish Gospels: The Story of the Jewish Christ. There is a critical view of the Israeli government in Historic Jesus scholarship Views on Israel Boyarin.He writes in the introduction to one of his books that he was told on the stairs of his synagogue this year that there were many different versions of Judaism in late antiquity. Watching a tradition that I have dedicated my life to, disintegrating before my eyes, is more piercing to me. Many Christians believe that Christianity died at Sobibor. I fear that my Judaism may be dying at Nablus. Other Jews want to know who will be for them if we are not for ourselves. If we are for ourselves alone, what are we? In a publicised essay, the Director of the Institute for the Study of Contemporary Anti-Semitism criticized Boyarin for his words and for the parallel to the Holocaust.His use of quotations and his 'controversial report' have been criticized for taking things out of context. The Babylonian Talmud, Tractate Nazir is a critical edition. There was a doctor's dissertation in 1975. Sephardic Speculation: A Study in Methods of Talmudic Interpretation was published in 1989. Intertextuality and the Reading of Midrash was published in 1990. The University of California Press published a book called Carnal Israel: Reading Sex in Talmudic Culture. A Radical Jew: Paul and the Politics of Identity was published in 1994.


title: Michael Chabon

texts: <mask> is an American novelist, screenwriter, columnist and short story writer. He graduated from the University of Pittsburgh in 1984 after spending a year at Carnegie Mellon University. He received a master's degree in creative writing from the University of California, Irvine. The Mysteries of Pittsburgh was <mask>'s first novel. Wonder Boys was followed by two short-story collections. John Leonard would later call <mask>'s novel the "masterpiece" of his career. It won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction in 2001.His novel The Yiddish Policemen's Union, an alternate history mystery novel, won the Hugo, Sidewise, Nebula and Ignotus awards in 2007, while his novel Gentlemen of the Road appeared in book form in the fall of the same year. Telegraph Avenue was published in 2012 as "a twenty-first century Middlemarch" about the lives of two families in the San Francisco Bay Area. Moonglow, a fictionalized memoir of his maternal grandfather, based on his deathbed confessions under the influence of powerful painkillers, was published in November 2016 by Chabon. Chabon's work is characterized by complex language, frequent use of metaphor, and recurring themes such as nostalgia, divorce, abandonment, and fatherhood. Gay, bisexual, and Jewish characters are included in his work. He has written in a variety of styles since the late 1990s, and has defended the merits of genre fiction and plot-driven fiction. <mask> was born in Washington, DC to a Jewish family.His parents are a doctor and a lawyer. At the age of ten, Chabon wrote his first short story for a class assignment and knew he wanted to be a writer. The story received an A and he thought to himself, "That's it." I want to do that. I can do this. I didn't have any doubts or second thoughts. He wrote that he was raised on a diet of "crap".He grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Columbia, Maryland, after his parents divorced. Columbia, where he lived with his mother for nine months of the year, was a progressive planned living community in which racial, economic, and religious diversity were actively fostered. He wrote about his mother's marijuana use when she sat in the front seat of Kathy's car and passed a metal pipe back and forth before going to see a movie. His mother's parents and siblings spoke Yiddish to him. <mask> received a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Pittsburgh in 1984. He received a master's degree in creative writing from the University of California, Irvine. <mask>'s first novel, The Mysteries of Pittsburgh, was written as a master's thesis.Donald Heiney, Chabon's professor, didn't tell Chabon about the novel and sent it to a literary agent, who made the author an impressive $150,000 advance on the novel. <mask> was catapulted to literary celebrity after The Mysteries of Pittsburgh appeared in 1988. Donald Barthelme was one of his major literary influences in this period. In 2010, he said, "I copied the writers whose voices I was responding to, and I think that's probably the best way to learn." <mask> wasn't sure about his newfound fame. He turned down the chance to be in a Gap ad and to be included in the "50 Most Beautiful People" list. He said that he didn't give a shit about the People offer.I take pride in what I've done. It's weird to be praised for something like that. It felt like calling someone and saying, "We want to put you in a magazine because the weather's so nice where you live." Chabon reflected on the success of his first novel in 2001, saying that while the upside was that he was published and got a readership, the downside was that emotionally, this stuff started happening and I was still like, 'Wait a minute, is my?' It took me a while to catch up. Many of the stories in A Model World were published in The New Yorker. After the success of The Mysteries of Pittsburgh, <mask> spent five years working on a second novel about an architect building a perfect baseball park in Florida.There was no end in sight as it ballooned to 1,500 pages. Chabon never felt like he was conceptually on steady ground during the process. He submitted a 668-page draft to his agent and editor, who didn't like it. Chabon had problems with the novel. He said it was scary. I had signed a contract and been paid all the money. Half the money was already with my ex- wife when I got a divorce.I was told by my instincts that the book was fucked. Drop it. I thought, "What if I have to give the money back?" I used to fantasize about all the books I could write. Chabon confessed to being careless and sloppy when it came to his novels' plots, saying he "again and again falls back on the same basic story." Chabon remembers staring at his blank computer for hours before imagining a troubled young man trying to end it all. Within a few days, he had written 50 pages of his second novel, Wonder Boys.The character of Grady Tripp, a frustrated novelist who has spent years working on an immense fourth novel, was inspired by <mask>'s experiences with Fountain City. He wrote Wonder Boys for seven months without telling his agent or publisher. The book was a success. "An annotated, four-chapter fragment" from the unfinished 1,500 page Fountain City manuscript was included in McSweeney's 36. The Washington Post critic Jonathan Yardley was one of the supporters of Wonder Boys, but he argued that Chabon had been preoccupied with fictional explorations. He needs to break away from the first person and explore larger worlds. <mask> said that Yardley's criticism chimed with his own thoughts.I had bigger ambitions. He published his first genre fiction story, "In the Black Mill," in 1999 in his second collection of short stories, Werewolves in Their Youth. After completing Wonder Boys, Chabon discovered a box of comic books from his childhood, as well as memories of his Brooklyn-born father telling him about the middle years of the twentieth century in America. The radio shows, politicians, movies, music, and athletes of that era inspired him to begin work on a new novel. The amazing adventures of Kavalier and Clay, an epic historical novel that charts 16 years in the lives of Sammy Clay and Joe Kavalier, two Jewish cousins who create a wildly popular series of comic books in the early 1940s, was published in 2000. The novel won the 2001 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and became a New York Times Best Seller. The ability to pull off multiple points of view, historical settings, the passage of years, and which had never been tested before were discovered by Chabon in writing Kavalier & Clay.Summerland, The Final Solution, Gentlemen of the Road, and The Yiddish Policemen's Union were all published by Chabon in 2002. Two years later, he published The Final Solution, a novella about an investigation led by an unknown old man, who the reader can guess to be the famous detective, during the final years of World War II. His Dark Horse Comics project was a quarterly anthology series that was published from 2004 to 2006 and supposedly culled stories from a 60-year history of the character created by Kavalier & Clay. It received the 2005 Eisner Award for Best Anthology and a pair of Harvey Awards for Best New Series. <mask>'s novel, Gentlemen of the Road, ran in The New York Times Magazine from January 28 to May 6, 2007. Chabon described the serial as a swashbuckling adventure story set around the year 1000. The Yiddish Policemen's Union, the author's next novel, was published just before Gentlemen of the Road ended.A hard-boiled detective story that imagines an alternate history in which Israel collapsed in 1948 and European Jews settled in Alaska spent six weeks on the New York Times Best Seller list. The Hugo Award was won by the novel. In May 2007, Chabon said that he was working on a young-adult novel. The author said he put the young-adult book on hold and signed a two-book deal. Manhood for Amateurs: The Pleasures and Regrets of a Husband, Father, and Son was published in Europe in the spring of 2009. The collection was nominated in the Creative Nonfiction category. The second collection of essays and non-fiction was published by Chabon.Maps and Legends, a collection of <mask>'s literary essays, was published by McSweeney's. The book's proceeds went to 826 National. <mask>ich award in 2008. In an interview with the Washington Post in 2007, <mask> said he wanted his second book to be set in the present day and that he wanted to do something more mainstream than his recent work. Chabon said that he was writing a "naturalistic" novel about two families in Berkeley. In a March 2010 interview with the Guardian newspaper, Chabon said that "So far there's no genre content: it's set in the present day and has no alternate reality or anything like that." An idea for a TV series pilot that Chabon was asked to write in 1999 is the basis of Telegraph Avenue, a social novel set on the borders between Oakland and Berkeley in the summer of 2004.<mask> said in an interview with the San Francisco Chronicle that the novel concerns the possibility and impossibility of creating shared community spaces that attempt to exceed the limits imposed on us by our heritage and history. Telegraph Avenue had a difficult birth, <mask> told the Guardian newspaper, "I got two years into the novel and got completely stymied and felt like it was an utter flop." I had to start all over again, keeping the characters but changing the story completely. <mask> feels that Telegraph Avenue is a significant "unification" of his earlier and later styles, declaring in an interview, "I could do whatever." I was open to all of that and I didn't have to steer away from the naturalistic story about two families living their everyday lives and dealing with pregnancy and birth and adultery and business failure and all the issues that might go into making a novel written in the genre of mainstream quote. Scott Rudin, who previously optioned and produced Wonder Boys, is adapting the novel into a script. In a public lecture and reading of the novel in Oakland, California, Chabon listed several creative influences.<mask>'s latest novel, Moonglow, was published in November of 2016 The novel is based on the deathbed confessions of <mask>'s grandfather. Kingdom of Olives and Ash: Writers Confront the Occupation is a non-fiction collection of essays by writers concerning the continued Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza. <mask> and Waldman contributed essays to the collection. <mask> wrote an op-ed piece for the New York Times in June 2010 in which he noted the role of exceptionalism in Jewish identity in relation to the "blockheadedness" of Israel's botching of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Pops: Fatherhood in Pieces was published in May. Pops is a collection of essays about the rewards and challenges of being a father and a family member.<mask>'s next book was published in January of 2019. <mask> has contributed over the years to various books and other projects, as well as exploring his own literary influences and ideas about writing and reading. <mask> is donating all royalties from the book to MacDowell. In an interview with the American Booksellers Association promoting Moonglow in November 2016 <mask> stated that his next fiction project would be a follow-up to Summerland, but not a sequel. I have been trying to get around to it for a long time. <mask> was involved in writing lyrics for Mark Ronson's album, as well as writing a song for the Monkees' album Christmas Party. Chabon sees himself as a failure despite his success, noting that anyone who has ever received a bad review knows how long it will last.Amazon.com had a dispute with Hachette, a publisher. Hundreds of authors, including <mask>, condemned Amazon in an open letter because they stopped taking pre-orders for books. <mask> was mistakenly featured in a Newsweek article on up-and-coming gay writers after the publication of The Mysteries of Pittsburgh. The New York Times reported that Chabon was happy about the magazine's error, and quoted him as saying, "I feel very lucky about all of that." It gave me a new audience and a loyal one. <mask> said in a 2002 interview, "If Mysteries of Pittsburgh is about anything in terms of human sexuality and identity, it's that people can't be put into categories all that easily." In "On The Mysteries of Pittsburgh," an essay he wrote for the New York Review of Books in 2005, Chabon remarked on the autobiographical events that helped inspire his first novel: "I had slept with one man whom I loved, and learned to love

title: Michael Chabon

texts: another man so much that it wouldChabon married the poet Lollie Groth. The success of The Mysteries of Pittsburgh had an adverse effect on <mask>'s career because he was married at the time to a struggling writer. He and Groth divorced. He married an Israeli-born writer. They live in Berkeley with their children. <mask> has said that the "creative free-flow" he has with Waldman inspired the relationship between Sammy Clay and his wife. <mask> said in an interview that he writes from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. on Sunday through Thursday.He is trying to write 1,000 words a day. Chabon said, "There have been plenty of self-destructive rebel-angel novelists over the years, but writing is about getting your work done and getting your work done every day." If you want to write novels, they take a long time, they are big, and they have a lot of words in them. A very stable, structured kind of life is the best environment for me. Chabon was a vocal endorser of Barack Obama during his 2008 election campaign, and wrote an enthusiastic opinion piece on Obama for the New York Review of Books. Chabon included a fictionalized 'comeo' by Obama in his novel Telegraph Avenue. <mask> has been an outspoken critic of Donald Trump, both during his campaign for the presidency and during his administration.During an interview with The Guardian before Trump's inauguration, Chabon remarked, "I really have no idea what to expect." He is so unpredictable. He is so unpredictable. If he said he was going to take all the illegal immigrants out to be shot, I wouldn't be surprised. He is a random impulse generator. Chabon said in a radio interview that he woke up with a " boundless sense of optimism and hope that this is the day that he's going to have a massive day." Chabon decried the state of modern short fiction in 2002, saying that it consisted of "the contemporary, quotidian, plotless, moment-of-truth revelatory story."<mask>'s post-2000 work has been marked by an increased interest in genre fiction and plot. <mask>'s previous works, such as The Mysteries of Pittsburgh and Wonder Boys, were realistic, contemporary novels with a plot centered around comic-book superheros. The Yiddish Policemen's Union won five genre awards, including the Hugo Award. <mask> wants to "annihilate" not the genres themselves, but the bias against certain genres of fiction such as fantasy, science fiction and romance. <mask>'s genre fiction has met with mixed reviews. One science fiction short story by Chabon, "The Martian Agent," was described by a reviewer as "enough to send readers back into the cold but reliable arms of The New Yorker." Another critic wrote of the same story that it was "richly plotted, action-packed," and that "Chabon skilfully elaborates his world and draws not just on the steampunk worlds of William Gibson, Bruce Sterling and <mask>, but on alternate histories by brilliant science fiction mavericksThe story keeps us hanging on. The Final Solution was described by The Village Voice as "an ingenious, fully imagined work, an expert piece of literary ventriloquism, and a mash note to the beloved boys' tales of Chabon's youth." Chabon makes good on his claim that a successful detective story needs not be lacking in literary merit. Chabon was against the idea that genre fiction and entertaining fiction should not appeal to the real writer. I like to read and write to entertain. Period. One of the more positive responses to Chabon's brand of "trickster literature" appeared in Time magazine.Jonathan Lethem is friends with <mask> and is part of a movement of authors who want to blend literary and popular writing. In Slate in 2007, Ruth Franklin said, "<mask> has spent considerable energy trying to drag the decaying corpse of genre fiction out of the shallow grave where writers of serious literature abandoned it." August Van Zorn is an unusual horror/fantasy fiction persona created by <mask> for some of his own genre work. August Van Zorn is said to be a pen name for Albert Vetch. In <mask>'s 1995 novel Wonder Boys, the narrator wrote that he grew up in the same hotel as Vetch, who worked as an English professor at Coxley College and wrote hundreds of pulp stories that were "in the gothic mode." A horror-themed short story titled "In the Black Mill" was published in Playboy in June 1997 and later in <mask>'s 1999 story collection Werewolves in Their Youth, which was attributed to Van Zorn. Along with a fictional literary scholar devoted to his oeuvre, <mask> has created a comprehensive bibliography for Van Zorn.Van Zorn was declared to be the greatest unknown horror writer of the twentieth century by the website that existed under the auspices of Chabon's. "Leon Chaim Bach" is an anagram of "<mask>bon" and "Malachi B. Cohen" is a fictional comics expert who wrote occasional essays about the Escapist for the character's Dark Horse Comic series. In 2004, Chabon established the August Van Zorn Prize, which was awarded to the short story that most faithfully and disturbingly embodies the tradition of the weird short story as practiced by August Van Zorn and his literary descendants. The winning story of the prize, "7C," was edited by Chabon and included in McSweeney's anthology. A scene in the film adaptation of Chabon's novel The Mysteries of Pittsburgh shows two characters in a bookstore. The Chabon universe has provided several subtle hints that the stories he tells take place in a shared fictional universe. Eli Drinkwater, a fictional catcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates who died suddenly after crashing his car on Mt., is one of the recurring characters in three of Chabon's books.Nebo Road. The most detailed exposition of Drinkwater's life appears in <mask>'s 1990 short story "Smoke," which is set at Drinkwater's funeral, and refers to him as a scholarly catcher, a redoubtable batsman, and a kind, affectionate person. In <mask>'s 1995 novel Wonder Boys, the narrator explains that his sports writer friend Happy Blackmore was hired to ghost the autobiography of a catcher, a rising star who played for Pittsburgh and hit the sort of ball. Blackmore turned in an inadequate draft, his book contract was canceled, and the catcher died, leaving nothing in Happy's notorious 'files' but the fragments and scribblings of a ghost. According to <mask>'s children's book Summerland, Happy Blackmore wrote a book called Eli Drinkwater: A Life in Baseball. Drinkwater's name may have been chosen to honor contemporary author John Crowley, who <mask> admires. Alice Drinkwater was a main character in Little, Big Crowley.Character surnames can reappear from story to story. Cleveland Arning, a character in <mask>'s 1988 debut novel, The Mysteries of Pittsburgh, is described as having come from a wealthy family, one that might be expected to be able to build a building. At the end of Wonder Boys, it is mentioned that the English faculty at the college where Tripp teaches kept office hours in a building called Arning Hall. In <mask>'s 1989 short story "A Model World," a character named Levine discovers a formula for "nephokinesis" that wins him respect and prominence in the meteorological field. The "massive Levine School of Applied Meteorology" is a building owned by New York University and is referred to in The AMAZING ADVENTURES OF Kavalier & Clay. Although <mask> once described his attitude toward Hollywood as "pre-emptive cynicism," for years the author has worked to bring both adapted and original projects to the screen. Scott Rudin was the producer of The Gentleman Host, a romantic comedy about old Jewish folks on a third-rate cruise ship out of Miami.Rudin bought the project and developed it with <mask>, but it was never filmed because of the release of Out to Sea. <mask> had story ideas for the X-Men and Fantastic Four films, but they were rejected. When Rudin was adapting Wonder Boys for the screen, he declined to write the script because he was too busy with his other projects. Wonder Boys was a flop in 2000 and starred <mask>. Rudin asked <mask> to work on the film's script after buying the film rights. <mask> spent 16 months in 2001 and 2002 working on the novel's film adaptation, but the project has been stuck in pre-production for years. Rudin purchased the film rights to The Yiddish Policemen's Union in 2002, five years before the book would be published.Miramax bought the rights to Summerland and Tales of Mystery and Imagination, a collection of eight genre short stories that Chabon has not yet written, for a sum in the mid-six figures. About a third of the Spider-Man 2 draft was used in the final film. Sam Raimi wanted to hire <mask> to work on the sequel to Spider-Man 2, but he never worked on Spider-Man 3. In October 2004, it was announced that <mask> was working on Disney's Snow and the Seven, a live-action martial arts remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs to be directed by Yuen wo Ping. <mask> said in August 2006 that he had been replaced on Snow because the producers wanted to go in a more fun direction. Although <mask> was not involved with the project, Rawson Marshall Thurber shot a film adaptation of The Mysteries of Pittsburgh. The film was released in April of 2008.Rudin reported in February 2008 that a film adaptation of The Yiddish Policemen's Union would be written and directed by the Coen brothers. Chabon was skeptical that the Coens would make the film, saying that they had decided to make A Serious Man instead, and did not wish to do another film with similar themes. In April 2009, <mask> confirmed that he had been hired to revise the script for Disney's John Carter. <mask> was hired to revise the script for Disney's Bob the Musical. Chabon joined the writing team of Star Trek: Picard, a new Star Trek series starring Patrick Stewart. "Calypso", a Star Trek: Short Treks episode co-written by Chabon, was released in November. "Q&A" was written by Chabon and was released on October 5, 2019.<mask> referred to himself as a lifelong Star Trek fan on the premiere day of his series. <mask> said in an interview with Variety in March 2020 that he would be an executive producer on the second season of Star Trek: Picard. <mask> has been working on a television adaptation of Kavalier and Clay with Ayelet Waldman since December of 2019. Following an article in The Hollywood Reporter which alleged numerous instances of physical and emotional abuse from Rudin towards his employees, <mask> wrote a public apology, stating that he had "regularly, even routinely" heard Rudin shout at and insult staff during their twenty years of collaboration. <mask> said he was ashamed. I want to apologize for my part in enabling Scott Rudin's abuse. The International Dublin Literary Award was for Wonder Boys.<mask>'s tale of darkness and light is a modern fable.

You should watch yourself. <mask> began his rightward shift towards being a "liberal with sanity" after reviewing the controversy surrounding then-New York City Mayor John Lindsay's attempt to place a 3,000-person housing project in a middle-class community in Queens.

George H.W. was the Director of Central Intelligence.<mask> was informed of the threat by Bush. <mask> asked for protection from both the CIA and the FBI. When <mask> took office, the city was reeling from high crime, a devastating blackout, and a fiscal crisis.

The local chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union and many African-American leaders criticized these positions. <mask>'s first memoir, Mayor, became a best-seller and was adapted into an off-Broadway and Broadway musical, Mayor. <mask> signed a lesbian and gay rights law for the city in 1986 after 15 years of failed attempts by the City Council to approve such legislation.The New York City Health Department shut down the city's gay bathhouses in 1985 due to concerns over the spread of AIDS. The enactment of the measure the next year meant that the bathhouses would have to be reopened because many heterosexual "sex clubs" were in operation in the city at the time, and allowing them to remain open. The heterosexual clubs, including Plato's Retreat, were ordered to close by the Health Department. <mask> was involved in both the Statue of Liberty's 100th anniversary celebration and Hands Across America. The paralyzing shooting of NYCPD detective Steven McDonald, the Robert Chambers "preppie murder" case, the Howard Beach incident, and the racially motivated murder of Yusef Hawkins all happened during <mask>. <mask> consistently demonstrated a fierce love for New York City, which some observers felt he carried to extremes on occasion: in 1984 he went on record as opposing the creation of a second telephone area code for the city, claiming that this would divide the city's

title: John Davis (explorer)

texts: <mask> was a navigator for Queen Elizabeth I of England. He was a pilot and captain on both Dutch and English voyages to the East Indies. The Falkland Islands were discovered in August 1592. <mask> spent his childhood in Sandridge Barton, which is close to the parish ofStoke Gabriel, where he was born. It has been suggested that he learned a lot of his seamanship when he was a child playing in the river Dart. Adrian Gilbert and Humphrey Gilbert were his childhood neighbours. He became friends with <mask> early on.Francis Walsingham was the queen's secretary when he began pitching a voyage in search of the Northwest Passage. In 1585, the secretary relented and funded the expedition, which traced the route of Frobisher to the east coast and west towards Baffin Island. Two of the four ships that he sent back to the north in 1586 were sent to the eastern shore of the island, but the other two were blocked by the ice cap. The attempt was to go around the island from the east. <mask>' initial approach to the Inuit was to bring musicians and have the crew dance and play with them, but after they stole one of his anchor's, they were likely irate at having been interrupted during one of their religious ceremonies. The Inuit attacked his ships. The third expedition reached 7212'N and Disko Island before unfavorable winds forced it back.The Davis inlet is in the coast of Labrador. For centuries, the log of this trip was a textbook model for later captains. In 1588 he commanded Black Dog against the Spanish Armada. He joined the Earl of Cumberland in 1589. He was on Thomas Cavendish's last voyage, which sought to discover the Northwest Passage "upon the back parts of America" from the western entrance. After the rest of Cavendish's expedition returned unsuccessful, <mask> continued to attempt on his own account the passage of the Strait of Magellan; though defeated by foul weather, he apparently discovered the Falkland Islands. His crew 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 800-273-3217 800-273-3217<mask> is thought to have sailed with Sir Walter Raleigh to Cdiz and the Azores as master of Raleigh's ship from 1596 to 1597 and then accompanied a Dutch expedition to the East Indies as pilot from 1598 to 1600. He dodged a bullet at Achin on Sumatra. He was with Sir James Lancaster on the first voyage of the English East India Company. If the voyage doubled its original investment, <mask> would get 500 for his part, £1,000 if three times, £1,500 if four times and £2,000 if five times. <mask> had told merchants in London that it was possible to get pepper in Aceh for four reals of eight per hundredweight. Lancaster complained that <mask> had been wrong about the price and availability of pepper. On December 5, 1604 <mask> sailed again for the East Indies as pilot to Sir Edward Michelborne, who had been granted a charter by James I despite the supposed East India Company monopoly on trade with the East.He was killed off Bintan Island by a pirate whose disabled vessel he had just seized. The pirates had taken the English in through several days of friendly discourse before the surprise attack in which the subject was dragged back, hacked and slashed. He died after the attack. After his death, the importance of Dutch whalers led to the settlements along the western coast of the island being called "Straat Davis", while the eastern shore was mistakenly referred to as "Greenland". Richard Hakluyt published <mask>'s explorations in the northern part of the world. <mask> published The Seaman's Secrets in 1594 and The World's Hydrographical Description in 1595. <mask>'s last voyage was written on his return to England in 1606.His invention of the backstaff and double quadrant was popular among English seamen until the reflecting quadrant was introduced. <mask> was married to Mistress Faith Fulford, daughter of Sir <mask>, and the daughter of the Earl of Bath. Their children were four sons and a daughter. On his return from the 1592 voyage, <mask> discovered his wife had taken up with a "sleek paramour"; conspiring with this man, a counterfeiter, Faith "brought false and unavailing charges" against him".
