title: Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche

texts:
<mask> (, 1930–2002) was a Tibetan teacher of the Nyingma school of Vajrayana Tibetan Buddhism. He was known and respected in the West for his teachings, his melodic chanting voice, his artistry as a sculptor and painter, and his skill as a physician. He acted as a spiritual guide for thousands of students worldwide. He was the sixteenth tülku of the Chagdud line. Chagdud Gonpa centers practice Tibetan Buddhism, primarily in the Nyingma tradition of Padmasambhava. Early life

<mask> was born Padma Gargyi Wangchuk  in the Tromtar region of Kham eastern Tibet in 1930. His father was <mask>, a lama in the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism.His mother was Dawa Drolma, who was widely considered to be an emanation of Tara and was from a Sakya family, and had a profound influence on her son's spiritual life. By the time he was three years old, he was recognized as the incarnation of the previous Chagdud Tulku, and soon thereafter traveled to Temp'hel Gonpa, a monastery about two or three days by horseback from Tromtar. As he recounts in his autobiography, The Lord Of The Dance:

After this retreat he received numerous teachings, empowerments, and oral transmissions, from various spiritual masters. One of them, Sechen Rabjam Rinpoche, told him that Tara meditation would be one of his major practices. In 1945, shortly after completing his first three-year retreat, he went to see Dzongsar Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö. From him, Chagdud tulku received the rinchen terdzö () empowerments and met Dilgo Khyentse, who was also attending. By 1946 he entered his second three-year retreat, this time under the guidance of the Tromge Trungpa Rinpoche.Near the conclusion of this retreat, the death of Tromge Trungpa forced him to leave before its completion. He then returned to Chagdud Gompa in Nyagrong, and after staying there for a while, proceeded on a pilgrimage to Lhasa with an entourage of monks. He then did an extended retreat at Samye, the monastery built by Padmasambhava, and afterwards attended empowerments given by Dudjom Jigdral Yeshe Dorje, who became a main teacher as well as a source of spiritual inspiration for him. After this in 1957 he stayed for a year in Lhasa, Tibet, in the same household as Khenpo Dorje, whom he regarded as his root lama. Among his other teachers were Shechen Kongtrul, <mask> Arig and Dudjom Jigdral Yeshe Dorje. During 1958, his last year in Tibet, Chagdud <mask> was advised to marry in order to have a companion and helper in the unsettled times to come. He later wed Karma Drolma, the daughter of a wealthy landowner in Kongpo.Later, in exile in India, they had a son and a daughter, Jigme Tromge and Dawa Lhamo Tromge. Life in exile from Tibet
Following the Tibetan Uprising in 1959, <mask> <mask> escaped along with Khenpo Dorje to India, after enduring hunger, and many dangers, where it looked like they would be captured. His route took him through the Pemakö region of Tibet, and his party came out from there into the Indian state of Nagaland. In India <mask> lived in a number of Tibetan refugee resettlement camps ─ Kalimpong, Odisha, Dalhousie, Bir, Himachal Pradesh, and Delhi. He practiced traditional Tibetan medicine, and was much in demand as his fellow refugees had trouble coping with the heat, and subtropical diseases found in India. A year or two after his arrival in India, <mask> entered a retreat in Tso Pema, a lake sacred to Padmasambhava, located  near the city of Mandi, Himachal Pradesh. At this location he met Jangchub Dorje, a primary disciple of Apong Terton and a lineage holder of this great tertön's Red Tara cycle.Jangchub Dorje gave him empowerments for the Red Tara cycle, and then he re-entered into retreat and signs of accomplishment in the practices came very swiftly. Later, when he began teaching in the West, the Red Tara sādhanā became the meditation most extensively practiced by his Western students. While he was living in Bir, Himachal Pradesh, circumstances there gradually led to an estrangement with Karma Drolma, and eventually they separated. After giving a teaching in Kulu Manali, the 14th Dalai Lama extended an invitation for <mask> to go to the United States and teach, contingent upon him getting a visa. It was at this time that he moved to Delhi, and lived in Majnu-ka-tilla, a Tibetan camp on the banks of the Yamuna. The process of trying to get a visa went on for three years, and was ultimately unsuccessful. During this time period he met his first Western students, but he also caught malaria and nearly died, and was saved by an Indian doctor who finally made the correct diagnosis of what was ailing him.In the fall of 1977 empowerment cycles were given in Kathmandu, Nepal by Dudjom Jigdral Yeshe Dorje in order to propagate the sacred lineages to a new generation. <mask> <mask> decided to travel there in order to receive all the empowerments of the Dudjom treasures from Dudjom Rinpoche. Hundreds of tulkus, scholars, yogis and lay practitioners gathered at <mask> Urgyen <mask>'s monastery for these empowerments. About his experience he says this in his autobiography:

While attending them Chagdud <mask> met an older lama from Western Tibet, Lama Ladakh Nono, who was known for doing mirror divinations. He subsequently did a mirror divination for Chagdud and told him he should go to the West and benefit many people there by teaching the Dharma. He also predicted that a Western woman would come into his life and that this would be good. He continued to stay in Nepal on into 1978 in order to attend a new series of empowerments in the Chokling Tersar cycle given by Dilgo Khyentse.It was while attending one of these empowerments that a Western woman, Jane Dedman (later <mask> Khadro), approached <mask> <mask> with the offering of a white scarf and a jar of honey. Afterwards he invited her to lunch, and shortly after this he gave her some teachings. A month or so later he accepted her offer to serve as his attendant in retreat after the empowerments. This retreat lasted for several months, after which Dudjom Jigdral Yeshe Dorje among other things suggested Chagdud go to America to teach. Life in the West
After many months of waiting he was finally granted a visa and landed in San Francisco on Oct. 24, 1979. Shortly after this, he married Jane in South Lake Tahoe, California. The early years of his teaching in the Americas was spent in Eugene, and Cottage Grove, Oregon.In 1983, at the request of his students, he established Chagdud Gonpa Foundation. He soon ordained his first lama, a Western woman named Inge Sandvoss, as Lama Yeshe Zangmo (in 1987). Additionally in the time period of 1980 through 1987 he traveled widely and gave many teachings, accompanied by his interpreter, Tsering Everest. He invited many other Lamas such as Dudjom <mask>, <mask> Urgyen <mask>, Kalu <mask>, and Kyabje Penor <mask> to Oregon where they bestowed many empowerments and teachings. He also helped set up Padma Publications which eventually published his two books: The Lord of the Dance, and Gates to Buddhist Practice. With the assistance of Richard Barron, Padma Publications also began the monumental task of translating Longchenpa's Seven Treasuries from Tibetan into English,  three volumes of which have been published to date. In 1987 he returned to Tibet for the first time since 1959.He  traveled to Kham, visiting the three monasteries of his youth, and actually bestowed empowerments to the monastic staff there. His son, Jigme Tromge <mask>, traveled with him to Tibet and the next year immigrated to the United States, entering a three-year retreat a few months after his arrival. Then in 1988, after land was acquired in the Trinity Alps of Northern California, the main seat of Chagdud Gonpa Foundation was created there as Rigdzin Ling. It was here that Chagdud Tulku offered the empowerments and oral transmissions of the Dudjom Treasures in 1991, and several years later, of the supreme Dzogchen cycle, Nyingt'hig Yabzhi. In 1992 he received an invitation to teach in Brazil and he became a pioneer insofar as spreading the Dharma in South America. Throughout the 1990s he maintained  an extensive teaching schedule, put some of his senior students into three year retreats, and helped to establish many Chagdud Gonpa centers throughout the Western Hemisphere. These include more than 38 Dharma centers under Chagdud <mask>'s supervision and inspiration, in USA, Brazil, Chile, Uruguay, Switzerland and Australia.The best known are Rigdzin Ling in Junction City, California and Khadro Ling, his main center in Três Coroas, Brazil. In all his teachings he was known for stressing pure motivation in doing spiritual practice. He once wrote, "In the course of my Buddhist training, I have received teachings on many philosophical topics and meditative methods. Of all teachings, I find none more important than pure motivation. If I had to leave only one legacy to my students, it would be the wisdom of pure motivation. If I were to be known by one title, it would be the 'motivation lama.'" ”

In this context, ‘pure motivation’ means the cultivation of bodhicitta, which is the enlightened intent of doing practice for the benefit of oneself, and all other sentient beings.In 1995 he moved to Khadro Ling, in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, and it became the main seat of his activities for the rest of his life. Before moving to Brazil, Chagdud Tulku enthroned Lama Drimed Norbu (Alwyn Fischel) one of his main Western students, head lama of the Chagdud Gonpa foundation and gave him authorization to teach the Great Perfection teachings. In 1996 the first  Brazilian Dzogchen retreat took place at Khadro Ling and a large Guru Rinpoche statue was created there. In the next few years, he traveled in South America, giving teachings in Uruguay, Argentina, and Chile, in addition to different parts of Brazil. He also continued to travel to his centers in the United States, and made frequent visits to Nepal, a return to Chagdud Gompa in eastern Tibet and a visit to mainland China. During this same time period, in addition to leading Drubchens and month-long Dzogchen retreats, he also trained his students in the sacred arts of sculpture and painting, as well as ritual dance, chanting, and music. In 1998, construction began on the lha khang (temple) of Khadro Ling.In July 1998, the empowerments of the Taksham Treasures were bestowed by Terton Namkhai Drimed in the still incomplete temple. This temple was followed by an enormous prayer wheel project, perhaps the largest in the Western Hemisphere, then eight magnificent stupas, and a monumental statue of Akshobhya Buddha. In the same period, in Pharping, Nepal, Rinpoche built a new retreat center where eight people began training according to the Kat'hog tradition under Kyabje Getse Tulku. While <mask> <mask> kept up a tremendous amount of Dharmic activity, in the last few years of his life he was somewhat slowed down by diabetes, and in 1997, he entered a clinic and was diagnosed with a serious heart condition. In the last year of his life Rinpoche's body began to hinder his outer activities. He tired more easily, and travel became difficult. In 2002, he cancelled a trip to the United States, which had been scheduled for October, and instead entered strict retreat.In the last week of his life, he concluded this retreat on November 12, worked with a student artist to complete a statue of Amitabha, talked with many of his students, and led a training in phowa (transference of consciousness at the moment of death) for more than two hundred people. He continued teaching with great vigor until about 9 pm on the night of November 16. On November 17, at about 4:15 a.m., Brazilian daylight time, he suffered massive heart failure while sitting up in bed. According to his son, Jigme Tromge <mask>, <mask> <mask> <mask> then remained in a state of meditation for almost six full days. The ability to remain in meditation after the breath stops is known as (t'hug dam). Jigme Tromge <mask> described this in a release to the Brazilian press:

Afterwards his ku dun (the physical body) was flown to Kathmandu, Nepal, and then to the retreat center in Parping. During the forty-nine days that followed, Getse <mask> <mask> and Jigme Tromge <mask> led ceremonies in Parping, to purify inauspicious circumstances to Rinpoche's rebirth and to generate great merit through offerings and practice.A year later on the full moon of December 8, 2003, <mask>'s cremation was held on Jigme <mask>'s land in Parping, with Kyabje Mogtza Rinpoche, one of the highest lamas of Kat'hog  Gonpa, serving as Vajra Master. Hundreds of Rinpoche's students gathered, to mourn the loss of his direct physical presence, and made prayers and offerings for his eventual rebirth. His main students and the lamas he ordained continue to teach and carry on Chagdud's many projects and practices. At Brazil Gonpa, the project of Padmasambhava's Pureland was realized. To build a replica of Zangdog Palri was <mask> <mask>'s last wish and great project before he died in 2002. Chagdud Rinpoche made it a point to not only ordain many western lineage holders and lamas, but to surround himself with powerful female practitioners. Over half of the 30 some-odd westerners he has ordained as lamas have been women..." The first lama whom he had ordained as Lama Yeshe Zangmo was a Western woman named Inge Sandvoss.In 1995, Chagdud Rinpoche ordained western teacher Lama Padma Drimed Norbu (Alwyn Fischel), authorized him to teach Dzogchen, and recognized him as his Dzogchen lineage holder. In September 2010, Lama Drimed offered his resignation to the Board of Directors of Chagdud Gonpa Foundation from his positions as Spiritual Director and President of the Foundation, while remaining an ordained lama with authorization to teach the Great Perfection.

type: original

texts:
<mask> (1894–1973) was an eminent Irish architect. His collection of files about Irish architects formed the basis of the Dictionary of Irish Architects 1720–1940. Childhood and youth
<mask>,  only son of <mask> and Mary Mitchell, was  born in Shorncliff, Kent, England,  on 14 August 1894. He spent his early childhood in Rawalpindi where his father was a sergeant major in the 4th Royal Irish Dragoon Guards. On his father's retirement from the service in 1895 the family moved to Dublin, Ireland. Educated by the Jesuits at Belvedere College, <mask> pursued a variety of careers before becoming apprenticed to the architectural practice of Ashlin & Coleman c. 1911. He first attracted notice about this time when his measured drawing of the ceiling of Belvedere's Apollo Room was featured in the Irish Builder.A design for an iron railing and gate which won him the Gold Medal at the Father Matthew Feis, two years later, was published in the same journal. Earlier illustrations by <mask> had appeared in the third, fourth and fifth volumes of the Irish Georgian Society Records (1911–1913). By 1914 he was an assistant in the practice of Rudolf Maximilian Butler with a growing reputation. In 1918 his drawings of the Marino Casino won him the Downes Bronze Medal of the Architectural Association of Ireland, according to the judges, ' one of the finest specimens of draughtsmanship ever produced by a member of the Association'. Professional career

Early years
In 1919 <mask> spent some months in partnership with Aubrey Vincent O’Rourke. Later that year he set up practice with Stephen Stanislaus Kelly whom he had known since childhood. In 1920 they won  the competition for Ballymena Town Hall, and in 1923  were winners of the Cork City Hall design competition.They remained in practice, under the title 'Jones & Kelly' until Kelly's  death in 1951. Subsequently, <mask> took his son <mask> <mask> and his elder daughter, Elisabeth Fleming, into partnership, providing consultancy services to the firm for the remaining years of his life. The practice was then taken over by his grandson also named <mask> <mask> who carried on the practice until 2022. He was a fine designer and winner of The RIAI Travelling scholarship while  a student .He was a designer of many residential  developments on the South side of Dublin  and as a conservation architect was much in demand Some of his residential projects included 'The Burgage' In Dalkey 'Rock Lodge' in Limerick , Stratford College in Rathgar, The Mill Hill Missionaries Retirement Center also in Rathgar, along with numerous other residential projects. Mature years
Alfred Jones & Stephen Kelly had a wide-ranging practice, involving the design of ecclesiastical and educational structures as well as cinemas, theatres, manufacturing plants, commercial buildings and housing schemes. Among their most notable achievements were:  Screen Cinema, Eden Quay, Dublin (1920, 1930; Ballymena Town Hall, Co Antrim (1928); Church of the Four Masters, Friary, Athlone, Co. Westmeath (1930); Mount Mellerary Cistercian Abbey, Co Waterford (1924–27, 1933); DeLuxe Cinema, Camden Street, Dublin (1933); The Green Cinema, St. Stephen's Green, Dublin (1935); Columban missionaries, Dalgan Park, Co Meath (n/d);  Cork City Hall (1936) [Its Concert room is renowned for its superb acoustic]; Irish Pavilion for Empire World Exhibition, Glasgow (1938);  The National Stadium (1939); St. Francis Church, Cork City (1949); Mill Hill missionaries, Freshford, Co Kilkenny (n/d); Dublin Corporation Unbuilt Proposal, Wood Quay (1957). For the first quarter century of its existence Jones & Kelly was a practice of the old school, offering apprenticeships to applicants, over a hundred of who were indentured until the mid 1940s.Several were later to become notable Irish architects, including  Timothy Joseph Ahern, Basil Boyd Barrett, Rupert Boyd Barrett, Jackie Collins, John Peter Butler, Vincent Gallagher, Patrick F. McDonnell, Dermot O’Dwyer, Donal O’Dwyer and Michael Scott. The latter who worked in the practice between 1923–1926, and much later designed Dublin's Busáras (bus station) and other buildings in the modern style, regarded Jones & Kelly's preoccupation with the Gothic, Renaissance or Romanesque as a straitjacket which was out of date and outmoded. His grandson <mask> <mask> modernised the practice  and designed some modern buildings such as 'The Marr House' in South Park, Howth. His main buildings are renovation and redevelopment  of protected structures such as 'Stoneview' in Clarinda Park, Dunlaoghaire,

Wider  interests
<mask> was a man whose interests ranged well beyond the  confines of his profession to embrace the historical, artistic and sporting. He had a lifelong interest in Archaeology and Egyptology. In the last decades of his life he  devoted much of his time in producing   a comprehensive  biographical index of Irish architects and engineers. He also trawled the Irish Builder for interesting material, transcribing his findings.The results of this labour, deposited in 1980, are now are to be found in the Irish Architectural Archive, and are central to the Archive's database of Irish architects from 1720 to 1940. Fittingly his portrait adorns the I.A.A. reading room with an inscription paying tribute to the wealth and quality of his research. <mask> was also a philatelist and possessed a highly regarded collection of early French and French Colonial stamps. In addition he was a violinist who as a young man was known to have performed in the La Scala Theatre, Dublin. His sporting interests included life membership of the Old Belvedere R.F.C. and the Irish Amateur Boxing Association whose home (the National Stadium) had been designed by Jones & Kelly.<mask> was also a trustee of the organisation and served as its President for over 20 years. Death
Dying on 29 June 1973 <mask> was interred in the cemetery at Tallaght, County Dublin, on 2 July. He was survived by  his wife  of 50 years Mary (née Ardiff) (1892–1986), and by his three children: Elizabeth, Felix, and Marie, a distinguished musician. Elizabeth and Felix maintained the practice of Jones & Kelly after their father's death. References

Honorary Captain <mask> (7 July 1933 – 29 April 2006) was an Indian hockey player. He was goalkeeper of the Indian team in the 1956, 1960 and 1964 Olympics, that won two gold medals and one silver medal. He was the first goalkeeper to become captain of an international hockey team and was awarded the Arjuna award and the Padma Shri by the Indian government. He was captain of the Indian team which won the gold in the 1966 Asian Games. After missing the selection for the 1968 Olympics, <mask> quit hockey. He remained with the Army, retiring in 1979 as a captain of the Maratha Light Infantry. He died in 2006 after suffering gangrene in one leg in Mhow.Early life
<mask> was born on 7 July 1933, in Mhow a small cantonment town in the Indore District of the Malwa region of Madhya Pradesh, he belonged to the Shekhawat community of Rajasthan. <mask> began his sporting career as a footballer. He was the captain of the football team of Kodaria village in Mhow. He joined the Indian Army as a bandsman in the year 1947. He served in the 5th Battalion of Maratha Light Infantry. Career
After joining the army, he made the switch to hockey from football. Starting his career in 1955 playing for Services.He earned praises for his goalkeeping, and was selected for the national team, on the back of an impressive run in the domestic circuit. 1956 Olympics
Coached by Sardar Harbail Singh, and managed by Air Commander O.P. Mehra, India looked poised for another gold medal. The team's captain Balbir Singh Sr. had suffered a fracture in his favoured right hand during the tournament, but the then 2-time Olympic gold medallist set an example by playing through the pain barrier and in the process, notched up his 3rd gold and India's only medal at the 1956 Olympics at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). The finals was setup between arch-rivals India and Pakistan, where <mask> kept goal, the only goal came from Randhir Singh Gentle, to beat Pakistan 1–0 and India claimed its 6th consecutive Gold in Field Hockey, while <mask> was praised for his great saves, against Pakistan's forwards. 1960 Olympics
Captained by Anglo-Indian wizard Leslie Walter Claudius, and marching towards their 7th consecutive Gold medal, the team was brimming with a rare mixture of youth and experience. Strong in the defence where the legendary goalkeeper <mask> made for a formidable figure.Once again the finals was setup between India and Pakistan, it turned out to be a classic as Pakistan went ahead in the 11th minute through a goal by inside-left Naseer Bunda, right-in Hamidi had passed the ball to Nur Alam, the right-out, who in a flash and with a brief run hit the ball in the direction of the ever alert Bunda who dodged one to flick the ball on the left of the net, the one which a goal keeper of <mask>'s calibre could not stop, India lost 1–0, and were thus dethroned as the Kings of Hockey, much to the backlash of the fans back home. 1964 Olympics
The echoes of the 1960 Olympics defeat could be heard in Tokyo, where the Indian hockey team was not expected to win, at least according to the Indian media that doubted whether the Gold medal could be regained given Pakistan's ascendancy. Managed by Inder Mohan Mahajan, and captained by Charanjit Singh, the Indian team went on to beat Belgium 2–0, in their opening game. India once again met Pakistan in the finals, with India defeating Pakistan 1–0. <mask> was declared Man of the Match for his goalkeeping. Retirement
After he captained India in the 1966 Asian Games in Bangkok and again beat Pakistan for the gold medal, <mask> was dropped from the 1968 Mexico Olympics squad, he subsequently announced retirement, in displeasure. India did not do well at the 1968 Mexico Olympics, where India managed a bronze.Later life and death
After his retirement from hockey, <mask> served in the Army, and retired in 1979 as an honorary Captain in the Maratha Light Infantry. Towards the end Laxman lived in neediness, he was diagnosed with gangrene. Doctors suggested amputation, but <mask> preferred naturopathic remedies suggested by his friend, the hockey authorities did not pay any heed to his plea for help and were left on his own. The Madhya Pradesh government, offered assistance to <mask> £300, towards his treatment which was considered more to be mortification than help, while <mask>'s grandson condemned what he saw as the lack of interest of the Indian Hockey Federation. <mask> died on 29 April 2006, after his battle with Gangrene. Laxman was cremated at Mhow with full military honours. Awards and honours
 In 1964, he was awarded India's highest sports honour, the Arjuna award from Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, the President of India.In the 1964 Olympic final against Pakistan, Pakistan's Chef-de-mission Major General Musa said, Give us Joginder and <mask>, we will defeat you. It was the ultimate tribute to <mask>. In 1967 he was presented with the prestigious Padma Shri award by the President of India Zakir Husain. Garrison ground of Mhow has been dedicated to <mask>, the Infantry School has named it as Honorary Captain <mask> Stadium. In 1979 Laxman retired as an Honorary Captain in the Maratha Light Infantry. During the 1964 Hockey Olympics finals against Pakistan in Tokyo, an Australian Hockey magazine Hockey Circle quoted "'for <mask>, the ball was the size of a football. It was his afternoon of glory and fame.'''"In 2016, he was posthumously awarded the Major Dhyan Chand Lifetime Achievement Award. In popular culture
<mask>'s name was mentioned in the closing credits of the movie Paan Singh Tomar''. It was mentioned in the movie that <mask> was a four-time Olympic gold medallist, however, this is factually inaccurate, as he was only a two-time Olympic gold medallist. References

<mask> (June 8, 1906 – December 11, 1994) was an American author, poet, and activist. She was a lover of Valentine Ackland and wrote The Life of Anne Bradstreet: The Tenth Muse, about the early American poet and first American writer to be published in the Thirteen Colonies. Early life

<mask> was born at 107 Prospect Street, Waterbury, Connecticut, the first child of <mask> (1876–1952) and <mask> (1878–1949). She had one brother, <mask> (1909–1995). Her paternal grandfather was <mask> (1852–1914), one of the leading American paper box manufacturers and a stockholder of White & Wells and L.C. White Co. His estate amounted to half a million dollars which, at the time of his wife's death, Julia Phelps Haring (1852–1928), became $1.67 million ($ in  dollars). Her maternal grandfather was <mask> (1842–1912), a stockholder of the Waterbury Clock Company who left $1.75 million ($ in  dollars) to his two daughters, Lucy and Mary, <mask>'s mother.The <mask> and <mask> families descended from the Puritans who migrated to New England in the 1630s. The <mask>s were well-off and in addition to the Prospect Street house they owned a country house at Breakneck Hill, Middlebury, Connecticut (overlooking Waterbury, only 6 miles from Prospect Street), and another house at Bass Rocks, Gloucester, Massachusetts. They also owned a house and shooting camp in Middleton, South Carolina, Strawberry Hill House, 30 miles north of Savannah, inherited by <mask>. <mask> attended Westover School in Middlebury. <mask>'s closest female friend was Katherine Bullock (1908–1995), daughter of Calvin Bullock from Denver, who also attended Westover. They remained life-long friends and <mask> was often a guest at the 18th-century Royalston, Massachusetts houses Bullock's father bought and restored. Bullock married Henry P. Cole from Denver, and <mask> was the godmother of their first child.After graduation, <mask> made her debut into society in December 1925 at a reception given at the Waterbury Club; her dress gown was in white chiffon over silver with white fur trimming. Early in 1927, <mask> attended the Miss Risser's school in Rome together with her cousin, Helen "Henny" Chase Streeter, daughter of Edward Clark Streeter and Alice Chase, who later married John Bertram <mask>. After Rome, <mask> attended school in New York City to study sculpture. In 1937, <mask> with her brother Henry and their friend, George Heard Hamilton, attended the coronation of George VI. Career
In the 1930s, <mask> supported Franklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal program. She conducted investigations in industrial and mining towns to understand labor conditions there. Her father did not approve of her support for Roosevelt.In 1937, <mask> moved to Dorset, England, ostensibly to conduct a research on Anne Bradstreet, an early American poet and the first American writer to be published in the Thirteen Colonies. This was actually an excuse used with her family; her real intent was to meet English novelist and poet, Sylvia Townsend Warner, and her partner Valentine Ackland, and to join the American Friends Service Committee, a group that was providing relief workers to Spain. Back in Connecticut, <mask> had raised $1180 ($ in  dollars) for the Spanish Medical Aid Committee. Between 1937 and 1938, <mask> traveled many times to Spain, while her parents urged her to return to the United States. <mask> rented a house in Dorset and continued to support Spain's cause, also hosting refugees. At the beginning of World War II, <mask> went back to the United States, living in New York City and volunteering for the American Red Cross as an ambulance driver. She also tried to raise awareness of the Russian War Relief effort.For her support of the Soviets, <mask> was excluded from her mother's will: Mary left everything to her son, and <mask>'s brother Henry, with the agreement that Henry was to be the manager of her sister's part of inheritance. Henry did not share his mother's concerns, and as soon as possible, he passed the property of the "Patch", the house Mary had inherited from her own mother, and where <mask> was living, to <mask>, as well with her share of money. At the end of the 1940s, <mask> joined and became active in the Progressive Party. She was involved in the Communism movement, and was a supporter of the 1948 presidential campaign of Henry A. Wallace. Personal life
Late in 1938, <mask> had a nervous breakdown and spent the Christmas season at Ackland and Warner's home in Dorset; she later started a relationship with Ackland. In For Sylvia: An Honest Account (1949), Ackland tries to explain her affair with <mask>; the relationship was brief, and Ackland spent the rest of her life with Townsend Warner. <mask> was a supporter of John Craske, a painter friend of Ackland.For this reason she was in contact with Peter Pears, who was collecting Craske's works, and she donated her papers about the artists to the Aldeburgh Festival Archive. In 1939 <mask> met Evelyn Virginia Holahan (August 28, 1905 – May 27, 1985) and they later shared an apartment in Greenwich Village. Holahan was originally from Rochester, New York, and moved to New York City to work at Benton & Bowles, an advertising agency. Holahan's older sister was <mask>, a famous interior decorator with several historical restorations in New York State to her credit; her younger sister was aspiring actress Annie Holahan. She met Ackland in Dorset, where Holahan arrived to retrieve her sister, who had followed Llewelyn Powys, British novelist and essayist, and Ackland's neighbor, to England. From the correspondence between Holahan and Ackland, it appears that they were having an affair at the time. In May 1939 <mask> accompanied Ackland to the New York pier after a visit, and there <mask> met Holahan.At the end of 1945, <mask> moved back to Middlebury, living at "The Patch", the house her grandmother, Martha Starkweather <mask>, left her. Holahan, who would become her life partner, moved in with her. At the end of the 1940s, Holahan and <mask> founded "White & Holahan, Books", a rare and used book business they ran from their home. In 1985 her companion Holahan died and <mask> continued to live at "The Patch" till her own death. In 1950 <mask> was accepted into the B.Litt. program at University of Oxford, even though she did not have an undergraduate degree; she was accepted thanks to the research she had conducted on Anne Bradstreet. <mask> graduated in 1953; her thesis, "The Life of Anne Bradstreet: The Tenth Muse", was published in 1971.In one of her analyses, <mask> highlights how Bradstreet's poem, The Prologue, is divided into two parts: at the beginning Bradstreet laments her inferiority to male writers, while at the end she asserts her woman's right to express herself. <mask> died on December 11, 1994 and is buried at Middlebury Cemetery, Middlebury, together with Evelyn Holahan.

title: Ali Shifau

texts:
<mask> (born 19 May 1977) is a Maldivian film director, cinematographer and editor. One of the most successful filmmakers in Maldivian Cinema, Shifau is the recipient of a number of awards, including seven Gaumee Film Awards, and four Maldives Film Awards. In 2018, the Government of Maldives honoured him with the National Award of Recognition. Career
<mask> collaborated with Moomin Fuad to direct the critically appreciated crime film Heylaa (2006) featuring a cast of Ismail Rasheed, Ahmed Mauroof, Zeenath Abbas, Lufshan Shakeeb and Abdulla Muaz. The film narrates the story of a fourteen year old ambitious boy who finds himself unknowingly being involved in the smuggling of a revolver. Apart from directing the film, <mask> worked as the editor and cinematographer, marking it as the first Maldivian film to be shot in high-definition digital video. Though the film received positive reviews from critics, it was a commercial failure.Shifau opined that its commercial status was a result of casting "not very prominent" faces in the film and the "film-goers were not ready to accept the genre" at the time of its release. Ahmed Nadheem from Haveeru praised the narration and direction; "The film is embroiled in a realistic story which has sensible characters who are emotive under the helm of two great leaders serving as directors". At the 5th Gaumee Film Awards ceremony, <mask> won Best Cinematography and Best Art Direction award. Three year later, the duo reunited for a suspense thriller Happy Birthday (2009) which narrates the story of a simple man who receives a call on his birthday informing him that his wife and son have been kidnapped, only to be returned for a ransom. The film was a commercial failure, despite the positive response from the critics. Winning five Gaumee Film Awards and twelve Maldives Film Awards, the film was also screened at the Venice Film Festival. The film earned him several accolades including his first Gaumee Film Award for Best Editing.After being involved in two art films, <mask> paced his direction more into a commercial phase with family drama Dhin Veynuge Hithaamaigaa (2010) starring an ensemble cast including Yoosuf Shafeeu, Niuma Mohamed, <mask>, Mohamed Manik and Ravee Farooq. The film showcases discrimination against the islanders, family revenge and fatherhood responsibilities. It received a positive response from critics while his direction and use of a "unique approach in presenting the concept to the romance-starved Maldivian audience" was particularly noted and was believed to be a "huge improvement" compared to the recent Maldivian films. Despite the commercial failure for his previous two films, Dhin Veynuge Hithaamaigaa was declared a commercial success. He then directed the psychological romantic thriller Zaharu (2011) starring <mask>, Niuma Mohamed and Sheela Najeeb. The film centers on a married man who has a weekend affair with a woman who refuses to allow it to end and becomes obsessed with him. The film was inspired from Adrian Lyne-directed American psychological erotic thriller film Fatal Attraction (1987).Upon release it received a mixed response from critics and was declared a "flop" at the box office. In 2013, <mask> directed the horror film Fathis Handhuvaruge Feshun 3D which serves as a prequel to Fathis Handhuvaru (1997) starring Reeko Moosa Manik and Niuma Mohamed in lead roles. It was based on a story by Ibrahim Waheed, Jinaa: Fathis Handhuvaruge Feshun (2009), which itself is a prequel to the story Fathishandhuvaru (1996) written by himself which was later adapted to a film by the same name in 1997. The film was marketed as being the first 3D release for a Maldivian film and the first release derived from a spin-off. Upon release the film received generally negative reviews from critics. Ahmed Nadheem from Haveeru Daily criticized the screenplay for the lack of "amusement" and the "abrupt rush" in the story-line with "flaws in the script". He concluded the review by praising the efforts put into the visual effects and addressing the "dislike of the film in comparison to Fathis Handhuvaru".Fathimath Zaina from Vnews echoed similar sentiments and mentioned: "It brings a good opportunity for Maldivians to experience a Dhivehi film in 3D, however it is a disappointment as a film overall. It does not bring justice to the genre it represents and so does the same to the story it's based on". Despite the negative reviews, at the 7th Gaumee Film Awards he was nominated in the Best Director award category. Shhifau's next release was the romantic film Emme Fahu Vindha Jehendhen (2015) starring Mohamed Jumayyil and Mariyam Majudha. The film was declared as the highest grossing Maldivian film  of the year, and was also a critical success. The collaboration was repeated with his next release, the romantic comedy Vaashey Mashaa Ekee (2016). His work was positively mentioned in the reviews, Ahmed Nadheem from Avas called it a "masterful creation by Shifau" and wrote: "Till this point, it was perceived that Shifau's talent was vanished with Heylaa, since all the films post his debut direction, his work is average at best".The film emerged as one of the highest-grossing films of the year. The film fetched him his first Gaumee Film Award for Best Director and Best Editor. The following year, he released another romantic comedy film Mee Loaybakee (2017) starring Mohamed Jumayyil alongside Mariyam Azza. The film emerged as one of the highest grossing Maldivian films of 2017. This was followed by a family drama Vakin Loabin (2018), marking his fourth collaboration with Mohamed Jumayyil and his third collaboration with Mariyam Majudha. The film tells a story of a young couple's divorce and its impact on everyone involved. Upon release, the film met with a positive response from critics—specifically praising the screenplay for toning down its melodrama and breaking from the stereotypes of its genre—and was a commercial success.In a pre-premier review from Raajje.mv, Ismail Naail Nasheed favored the character development and minimised use of melodrama in the film while praising Shifau's direction. Later during the year, first Maldivian anthology film was released which credited Shifau as the director of the segment titled Foshi which focuses on the impact on a couple's life due to the home use of an abortion drug. The project was filmed in 2013 and digitally released six years later due to several delays in post-production, where the producer of the film criticizes Farooq for "failing" to complete his segment during the stipulated time period took over the post-production.

<mask> (born Sara Payson Willis; July 9, 1811 – October 10, 1872), was an American novelist, children's writer, humorist, and newspaper columnist in the 1850s to 1870s. Her popularity has been attributed to a conversational style and sense of what mattered to her mostly middle-class female readers. By 1855, <mask> was the highest-paid US columnist, commanding $100 per week for her New York Ledger column. A collection of her columns published in 1853 sold 70,000 copies in its first year. Her best-known work, the fictional autobiography Ruth Hall (1854), has become a popular subject among feminist literary scholars. Biography

Early life
Sara Payson Willis was born in Portland, Maine, to newspaper owner Nathaniel Willis and his wife Hannah Parker. She was the fifth of their nine children.Her older brother Nathaniel Parker Willis became a notable journalist and magazine owner. Her younger brother Richard Storrs Willis became a musician and music journalist, known for writing the melody for "It Came Upon the Midnight Clear". Her other siblings were Lucy Douglas (born 1804), Louisa Harris (1807), Julia Dean (1809), Mary Perry (1813), Edward Payson (1816), and Ellen Holmes Willis (1821). Inspired by Reverend Edward Payson of Portland's Second Congregational Church, her father intended to name his fifth child after the minister. When the child was born a girl, he intended to name her after Payson's mother, Grata Payson. The reverend urged the Willises to reconsider, noting that his mother had never liked the name. In accordance with this request, the family named her Sara instead.Willis's surname was to change often in her life, throughout three marriages and the adoption of her chosen pen name "<mask>." She decided on the pen name because it reminded her of childhood memories of her mother picking ferns. Feeling that this chosen name was a better fit, she used it also in her personal life; eventually most of her friends and family called her "<mask>." Willis attended Catharine Beecher's boarding school in Hartford, Connecticut. Beecher later described her as one of her "worst-behaved girls" (adding that she also "loved her the best.") Here, the girl had her first taste of literary success when her compositions were published in the local newspaper. She also attended the Saugus Female Seminary .After returning home, Willis wrote and edited articles for her father's Christian newspapers, The Puritan Recorder and The Youth's Companion. First marriage and early career

In 1837, Willis married Charles Harrington Eldredge, a banker. They had three daughters together: Mary Stace (1838), Grace Harrington (1841), and Ellen Willis (1844). Sara's mother and younger sister Ellen both died early in 1844; in 1845 her eldest daughter Mary died of brain fever (meningitis); soon afterward, her husband Charles succumbed to typhoid fever. The widowed Willis was left nearly destitute. With little help from either her father or her in-laws – and none from her brother N.P. Willis – she struggled to make ends meet for her surviving young daughters.Her father persuaded her to remarry. Second marriage
In December 1848 the young widow married Samuel P. Farrington, a merchant. The marriage was a mistake. Farrington was so intensely jealous that in 1851 Willis left him, scandalizing her family. The couple divorced two years later. Willis published her first article, "The Governess", in November 1851 in the new Boston newspaper Olive Branch, followed by some short satirical pieces there and in True Flag. Soon after she regularly began using the pen name "<mask>" for all her articles.In 1852, on her own with two daughters to support, she began writing in earnest. She sent samples of her work under her own name to her brother Nathaniel, by then a magazine owner, but he refused them and said her writing was not marketable outside Boston. He was proved wrong, as newspapers and periodicals in New York and elsewhere began printing <mask>'s "witty and irreverent columns". In the summer of 1852, <mask> was hired by publisher Oliver Dyer at twice her salary to publish a regular column exclusively in his New York newspaper Musical World and Times; she was the first woman to have a regular column. The next year, Dyer helped her find a publisher for her first two books: Fern Leaves from Fanny's Portfolio (1853), a selection of her more sentimental columns, and Little Ferns for Fanny's Little Friends (1853), a children's book. She had to reveal her legal name to the publishers. As it was still Farrington and disagreeable to her because of her divorce, she tried to keep her name secret.The former book sold 70,000 copies in its first year, "a phenomenal figure for the time." Highest-paid columnist
James Parton, a biographer and historian who edited Home Journal, the magazine owned by <mask>'s brother Nathaniel (known as N.P. Willis), was impressed by <mask>'s work. He published her columns and invited the author to New York City. When her brother discovered this, he forbade Parton from publishing any more of <mask>'s work. Instead Parton resigned as editor of the magazine in protest. Fern's first book, Fern Leaves (1853), was a best seller.It sold 46,000 copies in the first four months, and over 70,000 copies the first year. She received ten cents a copy in royalties, enough for her to buy a house in Brooklyn and live comfortably. Three years into her career, in 1855 she was earning $100 a week for her column in the New York Ledger, making her the highest-paid columnist in the United States. Her first regular column appeared on January 5, 1856, and would run weekly, without exception, until October 12, 1872, when the last edition was printed two days after her death. <mask> wrote two novels. Her first, Ruth Hall (1854), was based on her life – the years of happiness with Eldredge, the poverty she endured after he died and lack of help from male relatives, and her struggle to achieve financial independence as a journalist. Most of the characters are thinly veiled versions of people in her world.She took revenge by her unflattering portrayals of several who had treated her uncharitably when she most needed help, including her father, her brother N.P. Willis, her in-laws, and two newspaper editors. When <mask>'s identity was revealed shortly after the novel's publication, some critics believed it scandalous that she had attacked her own relatives; they decried her lack of filial piety and her want of "womanly gentleness" in such characterizations. At the same time, the book also garnered positive attention. The author Nathaniel Hawthorne, who had earlier complained about the "damned mob of scribbling women", wrote to his publisher in early 1855 in praise of the novel. He said he "enjoyed it a great deal. The woman writes as if the devil was in her, and that is the only condition in which a woman ever writes anything worth reading."Wounded by the criticism and ambivalent about the wide publicity she stirred up, <mask> tried to reduce the autobiographical elements in her second novel, Rose Clark. But while it features a conventionally sweet and gentle heroine, a secondary character makes a poor marriage of convenience, an act which Fern had regretted in her own life. <mask>'s writing continued to attract attention. In her Ledger column of May 10, 1856, she defended the poet Walt Whitman in a favorable review of his controversial book Leaves of Grass. She noted Whitman's fearless individualism and self-reliance, as well as his honest and "undraped" portrayal of sex and the human body. Criticized for her admiration, she continued to champion literature that was ahead of its time. It has been suggested that Whitman imitated her Fern Leaves in his choice of cover art for the first edition.Third marriage
Sara Willis and James Parton were married in 1856 when she was 45 and well established. She and her husband lived in New York City with Ellen, one of her two surviving daughters. They also raised Ethel, her granddaughter and orphan of Grace, who died in 1862. In 1859, <mask> bought a brownstone in Manhattan at what is now 303 East Eighteenth Street near Second Avenue. She and Parton lived in the house for 13 years until her death. Final years

<mask> continued as a regular columnist for the Ledger for the remainder of her life. She was a suffrage supporter, and in 1868 she co-founded Sorosis, New York City's pioneer club for women writers and artists.The club was formed by <mask> and others after women were excluded from hearing the author Charles Dickens at the all-male New York Press Club dinner in his honor. Fern dealt with cancer for six years and died on October 10, 1872. She is buried in Mount Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge, Massachusetts next to her first husband. Her gravestone was inscribed simply "<mask>." After her death, her widower James Parton published Fanny Fern: A Memorial Volume (1874). Published works

Literary criticism
<mask> developed a writing style that closely reflected her pugnacious personality, with its common-sensical optimistic approach, always leavened with a dash of humor. She was an individualist who sought answers to social problems through individual personality development rather than politicized organizational movements. She did tackle such major issues as prostitution, divorce, child labor, and the horrors of slum living. Instead of calling for the radical reconstruction of society, she told her large audience of middle-class women to improve their health and their minds, urging downtrodden wives to be patient and bore from within. Fern was extremely successful in her lifetime as a columnist. She was said to fit her material and subject matter to the audience. Many readers of weekly literary papers were women, and Fern addressed them in a conversational style, often using interjections and exclamation points, while tackling topics that concerned the daily life of ordinary women.Her readers were wives and mothers who worried about their children, current fashions, difficult husbands, and aggravating relatives. Sometimes they felt oppressed, depressed, or stressed. Fern expressed their problems in plain language, addressing women's suffrage, the woman's right to her children in a divorce, unfaithful husbands, social customs that restricted women's freedom, and sometimes just having a bad day. Critics of "women's literature" considered some of these strengths to be weaknesses. They attacked her conversational style as unprofessional, feminine, and too spontaneous. Many male critics labeled her as "sentimental." This has led to counter-criticism about what exactly "sentimental" writing is, and why it is considered bad.The criticism showed women's lower status in society almost as well as Fern did in her work—who decides the standards by which literature is judged, and who does the judging? Nathaniel Hawthorne praised her as an exception to the "damned mob of scribbling women", who wrote "as if the devil was in her". Fern was straightforward when she wrote of subjects such as men's economic and social victimization of women. Legacy
<mask> is credited with coining the phrase, "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach". Henry D. Butler dedicated his 1858 book The Family Aquarium to "the gifted litterateuse whose nom de plume is '<mask>'"
Fern's granddaughter Ethel Grace Thomson Parton became a correspondent for the periodical The Youth's Companion (founded by her great-uncle, Nathaniel Willis). In 2005, Susan Stoderl's opera about Fern, titled A.F.R.A.I.D. (American Females for Righteousness Abasement Ignorance & Docillity), premiered as the inaugural show of the Brooklyn Repertory Opera, at the New York International Fringe Festival.Notes

He studied political science, history, philosophy, sociology and German studies in Düsseldorf, Cologne and Frankfurt am Main from 1969 to 1974. In 1978 he received his doctorate in Frankfurt with a dissertation on The Chinese Development Model in Theory and Practice under Dieter Senghaas. In 1982 he habilitated in political science, also in Frankfurt, with a thesis on Autocentric Development despite World Market Integration. After completing his doctorate, he taught and researched in the  University of Bremen, University of Tokyo, Frankfurt, University of Duisburg and Braunschweig before being appointed to the Chair of International Relations and Comparative Government at the Institute of Social Sciences at the Technical University of Braunschweig in 1993. He served as Dean (1995-1997) and Vice President (2001-2003).From 2004 until his retirement in 2015, he was managing director of the Institute of Social Sciences. In 2009, a festschrift was published in his honor, and his overall work has been discussed by several authors:

<mask>'s teaching and research fields are the theory and history of the international system, hegemony in world history, development theory, development politics and North-South relations, international political economy and peace and conflict studies. His regional interests lie mainly in East and Southeast Asia (especially China and Japan) and Europe. His major work, Die Ordnung der Welt. Imperium oder Hegemonie in der Hierarchie der Staatenwelt. (The Order of the World) was published in 2015. In the course of his research on globalisation, he provided a definition: globalisation is the intensification and acceleration of cross-border transactions with their simultaneous spatial expansion, or shorter is the compression of space and time.On the occasion of the COVID-19 pandemic, he predicted the possible end of globalisation because the discourse of globalisation has become defensive.

title: Katharine Emma Maltwood

texts:
<mask> (née Sapsworth) was a writer and artist on the esoteric and occult. Throughout her childhood, she was reared to be an artist. Her parents were progressive, and they pushed each of their children equally to achieve their potential. In her formative years of art education, her artistic inclinations drew her into the fashionable Arts and Crafts Movement. <mask> matriculated at the Slade School of Fine Art, University College, London (1896–97). Here, she studied sculpture. She was fascinated by Buddhism, theosophy, Masonic rituals, Goddess Spirituality, and Egyptian culture.These topics of study were widely popular amongst the middle- and upper-class society in England during her lifetime. In addition, her extensive travel ventures made the objects of her spiritual curiosity accessible for her to learn and grasp auxiliary meanings, all of which inspired her sculpture. Her work was part of the sculpture event in the art competition at the 1924 Summer Olympics. In 1925, <mask> was commissioned to draw a map outlining the adventures of the Knights of King Arthur and the Holy Grail, a subject made popular in the Victorian era by the Pre-Raphaelites and Alfred, Lord Tennyson. While researching, she claimed that the effigies of the zodiac were designed in a circle on the fields of Somerset—the very fields that the tales of King Arthur had transpired upon (Maltwood; 1944, p. 3). She devoted the rest of her life to researching, writing, and publicizing what she termed “Temple of the Stars.” Her theory regarding the zodiac was a combination of Sumerian, theosophy, Masonry, Egyptosophy, Early Christianity, and Rosicrucianism. She moved to Victoria, Canada, in 1938 with her husband because of her disillusionment with the state of Europe.She was encouraged to join the local art community by her friend Ina Uhthoff, an established figure as an artist, an art teacher, and an administrator. Maltwood contributed two pieces to the 1941 annual exhibition of the Island Arts and Crafts Society. She entered two sculptures in the exhibition: The Fire God of Mount Rainier, an Indian profile; and Aspiration, a bronze figure. She encouraged her cousin Elizabeth Duer to exhibit. <mask> also enjoyed sketching. Her depictions of nature were influenced by Emily Carr, from whom she purchased paintings. Maltwood continued to sketch and sculpt until she died in 1961.Thanks to <mask> and her husband <mask>’s generous bequest of their estate to the University of Victoria, the Maltwood Gallery and Special Collections own a large assortment of valuable objects and information about their lives. The Maltwood Gallery and Special Collections serve different functions: the gallery conserves the art objects the Maltwoods acquired while travelling the globe, furnishing their home, pursuing their interests, and supporting fellow artists and the artistic endeavours of Mrs. <mask> herself. Special Collections preserve the Maltwoods’ personal letters, journals, and books, including Mrs. <mask>’s own writing. Major works

Maltwood’s first publicly recognized work was Magna Mater in 1911. It was designed as a triptych. The central individual is crouched with his arms bound together. His position resonates with despair and struggle.The man’s strong legs and arms connote that he is a labourer. On either side of the labourer, mounds of people are bound together along a rope. The quote is taken from Sirach 40 or the Ecclesiasticus, which states, “Great travail is created for every man, and an heavy yoke is upon the sons of Adam, from the day that they go out of their mother's womb, till the day that they return to the mother of all things.”

Primeval Canada Awakening to Her Destiny was originally shown by the Arts and Crafts Society in the Grosvenor Gallery in 1912 and again at the London Salon in 1913. According to the Lady’s Pictorial of July 11, 1914, the monument was intended for erection in Canada, although we have no other source to prove this statement. The title of the work confirms that Maltwood had connections within Canada early on in her career. The Maltwoods had many friends who had moved from England to Canada, and they chose to visit Victoria in particular on several occasions. In fact, they even asked Samuel McLure to design a home for them on one visit.The dynamic head is the only remaining portion of this sculpture. A photo is the only proof we have that this sculpture was once attached to a body. The grand woman in this photo has her head upturned to the sky, possibly delivering a message to God. She is clothed in forest leaves, and at her sides are figures of moose and buffalo. Between the feet of the woman stands a bearded figure, a pioneer with an axe. His arms are outstretched as if in worship of Canada rising before and above him. Maltwood saw Canada as unspoiled and bountiful, in contrast to the materially driven and spiritually decayed Britain.Maltwood felt a deep connection to the nature of British Columbia; it evoked truth, power, and mysterious strength, all of which were virtues that she aspired to represent in her art. Font for the New Church of the Good Sheperd was made in Tadsworth, Surrey, in 1923. Circling the bowl is an inscription from Keble’s Lyra Innocentium. The three reliefs at the top surrounding the basin are the “open hand,” the “Agnus Dei,” and the holy dove descending; they symbolize the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost (Brown, p. 23). Mills of God (1919) is a sculpture of a giant wheel with multiple bodies helping one another to reach the peak of the wheel. The sculpture concerns the subject of reincarnation: each time an individual reincarnates, they are closer to reaching enlightenment. The wheel is a known symbol of reincarnation.In Buddhism, it is believed that when a person reaches the state of Buddha, they no longer reincarnate unless they desire to. The Priest of Buddha (1920) is a bust of Buddha with his hands in prayer position. The Buddha’s appearance is influenced by Art Deco, and he wears a headdress with a rather Masonic symbol on the front. Although <mask> was not a mason at this point in her life, there is clear Masonic reference in the design. Aspiration (1924) is a sculpture of a man reaching outward to receive enlightenment. The style of the work is art nouveau. Mirage (1927) is of a man sitting on a camel, his image duplicated on the sand.Cardonald in the novel House of Fulfillment explains that it “reminds and reveals all the experiences of illusion,” referring to the Buddhist concept of the illusion of self, separateness, and the earthly idea of time as opposed to a true awareness of harmonious unity ” (Brown, p. 36). Buddha's Path of Enlightenment (1929) is of a Buddha atop a high mountain. It is about the struggles of attaining enlightenment and about the ultimate bliss that comes with having achieved this state. The sculpture The Holy Grail (1922) was given two names by Maltwood: The Holy Grail, which it is most commonly known as, and Samadhi. The former title refers to her interest in Arthurian legends and foreshadows her discovery of the Glastonbury Zodiac. The latter title, Samadhi, is a Sanskrit word that can be defined as a state of consciousness induced by complete meditation. The idol holds a cup in his hands.The hand posture is inspired by tai chi. Tai chi movements are meant to build and release energy flow in the body and mind. The cup rests in a spiritually sensitive space, which signifies the importance of the cup. <mask> believed that the cup “embodied the lost knowledge that man must rediscover to achieve spiritual salvation” (Brown, p. 34). The sketch Trees over Water was created in 1939, a year after <mask> arrived in Victoria. The branches twist and curl in the wind, reminiscent of Art Nouveau designs. Colour is used sparingly in order to highlight the rich greens of the foliage in the foreground and the sun shining on the tips of the jagged rocks, all with the intent of heightening the drama of the scene.Her views on nature were inspired by her interest in theosophy, much like members of the Group of Seven, and Eastern religions such as Buddhism. <mask> was influenced in her work by the modern art movement termed symbolism but never ventured into abstraction.
