RooseveltCorinne Roosevelt in 1861His son's recollectionsOf Theodore Sr., or "Thee"as he was known, his namesake son, in his autobiography described him in the following words:Myfather, Theodore Roosevelt, was the best man I ever knew. He combined strength and courage withgentleness, tenderness, and great unselfishness. He would not tolerate in us children selfishness orcruelty, idleness, cowardice, or untruthfulness. As we grew older, he made us understand that the samestandard of clean living was demanded for the boys as for the girls; that what was wrong in a womancould not be right in a man. With great love and patience, and the most generous sympathy andconsideration, he combined insistence on discipline. He never physically punished me but once, but hewas the only man of whom I was ever really afraid. I do not mean that it was a wrong fear, for he wasentirely just, and we children adored him. ...I never knew anyone who got greater joy out of living thandid my father, or anyone who more whole-heartedly performed every duty; and no one whom I haveever met approached his combination of enjoyment of life and performance of duty. He and my motherwere given to hospitality that at that time was associated more commonly with southern than northernhouseholds. ...My father worked hard at his business, for he died when he was forty-six, too early to haveretired. He was interested in every social reform movement, and he did an immense amount of practicalcharitable work himself. He was a big, powerful man, with a leonine face, and his heart filled withgentleness for those who needed help or protection, and with the possibility of much wrath against abully or an oppressor. ... [He] was greatly interested in the societies to prevent cruelty to children andcruelty to animals. On Sundays, he had a mission class." In a 1900 letter, Roosevelt described his father,writing:I was fortunate enough in having a father whom I have always been able to regard as an idealman. It sounds a little like cant to say what I am going to say, but he did combine the strength andcourage and will and energy of the strongest man with the tenderness, cleanness, and purity of a woman.I was a sickly and timid boy. He not only took great and untiring care of me—some of my earliestremembrances are of nights when he would walk up and down with me for an hour at a time in his armswhen I was a wretched mite suffering acutely with asthma—but he also most wisely refused to coddleme, and made me feel that I must force myself to hold my own with other boys and prepare to do therough work of the world. I cannot say that he ever put it into words, but he certainly gave me the feelingthat I was always to be both decent and manly, and that if I were manly nobody would laugh at my being

Shinn said: "The fifteen years I was embraced bythe Court allowed me to become the artist I am today."CareerIn an article about Shinn, RobWeinert-Kendt observed: "If playwright Christopher Shinn has a signature character, it is themanipulative victim — the half-sympathetic, half-deplorable sort of person whose suffering is real butwho uses it as rationale for bad behavior." As an example, in Dying City, "Shinn conjured twin terrors: apair of brothers, one a straight soldier shipping off to Iraq, the other a successful gay actor."Four wasproduced by the Royal Court Theatre in their Young Writers' Festival in 1998. The play was produced bythe Worth Street Company at the TriBeCa Playhouse, New York City, in July 2001, directed by Jeff Cohen.It was produced by the Manhattan Theatre Club at Stage II in association with the Worth Street Company


Passage 1:Tiberius (son of Maurice)Tiberius (Greek: Τιβέριος, died 27 November 602) was the second sonof Byzantine Emperor Maurice and his wife Constantina. His father intended him to inherit Italy and thewestern islands, centered in Rome; however, this did not come to fruition as his father was overthrownby the new Emperor Phocas, who had him and his father executed, along with his younger brothers, inthe Harbor of Eutropius, Chalcedon.Early life and familyTiberius was the second son of Byzantine EmperorMaurice, and Constantina. He was named in honor of Emperor Tiberius II, his maternal grandfather. Hehad an older brother, Theodosius, four younger brothers, Peter, Paul, Justin, and Justinian, and threesisters, Anastasia, Theoctiste, and Cleopatra. Maurice was not only the first Byzantine emperor sinceTheodosius I to produce a son, but his and Constantina's ability to produce numerous children was thesubject of popular jokes.Maurice had served as magister militum per Orientem, the commander ofByzantine forces in the East, securing decisive victories over the Sassanian Empire. The ruling ByzantineEmperor, Tiberius II, weakened by illness, named Maurice one of his two heirs, alongside Germanus,planning to divide the empire in two, giving Maurice the Eastern half. However, Germanus declined, andtherefore, on 13 August 582, Maurice was married to Constantina and declared emperor. Tiberius II diedthe following day, and Maurice became sole emperor.Later lifeAccording to his father's will, written in 597when he was suffering from severe illness, Maurice intended for Tiberius to rule Italy and the westernislands, centered in Rome, rather than Ravenna, with Theodosius ruling in the East, centered inConstantinople. Theophylact Simocatta, a contemporary source, states that the remainder of the empirewould be split by Maurice's younger sons, and Byzantist J. B. Bury suggests one would rule North Africa,and the other Illyricum, including Greece, with Domitian of Melitene as their guardian. Historian JohannesWienand suggests that in this arrangement, Theodosius would serve as senior augustus, Tiberius asjunior augustus, and the younger brothers as caesars.In 602 Maurice ordered the Byzantine army towinter beyond the Danube, causing troops exhausted by warfare against the Slavs to rise up, and declarePhocas their leader. The troops demanded Maurice abdicate in favor of Theodosius or General Germanus.On 22 November 602, facing riots in Constantinople led by the Green faction, Maurice and his familyboarded a warship bound for Nicomedia.  Theodosius may have been at that time in the Sasanian Empire,on a diplomatic mission, or, according to some sources, was later sent by Maurice to request aid from theSassanian Emperor Khosrow II.Phocas was crowned emperor the next day, on the 23rd, after he arrivedin the capital. After surviving a storm, Tiberius and his family landed at Saint Autonomos, near Praenetus,45 miles (72 km) from Constantinople, but were forced to stay there due to Maurice's arthritis, which lefthim bed-ridden. They were captured by Lilios, an officer of Phocas, and brought to the Harbor ofEutropius at Chalcedon, where on 27 November 602, Tiberius and his three younger brothers were put todeath, followed by Maurice himself. Their remains were gathered by Gordia, Tiberius' aunt, and interredat the Monastery of Saint Mamas, which she had founded. Theodosius was subsequently captured andexecuted when he returned, while Constantina and her daughters were taken under the protection ofCyriacus II, the Patriarch of Constantinople.Passage 2:Augustus II the StrongAugustus II (12 May 1670 –1 February 1733), most commonly known as Augustus the Strong, was Elector of Saxony from 1694 aswell as King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania in the years 1697–1706 and from 1709 until his deathin 1733. He belonged to the Albertine line of the House of Wettin.Augustus' great physical strengthearned him the nicknames "the Strong", "the Saxon Hercules" and "Iron-Hand". He liked to show that helived up to his name by breaking horseshoes with his bare hands and engaging in fox tossing by holdingthe end of his sling with just one finger while two of the strongest men in his court held the other end. Heis also notable for fathering a very large number of children.In order to be elected king of thePolish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, Augustus converted to Roman Catholicism. As a Catholic, he receivedthe Order of the Golden Fleece from the Holy Roman Emperor and established the Order of the WhiteEagle, Poland's highest distinction. As Elector of Saxony, he is perhaps best remembered as a patron ofthe arts and architecture. He transformed the Saxon capital of Dresden into a major cultural centre,attracting artists from across Europe to his court. Augustus also amassed an impressive art collection and


Passage 1:Hafsa HatunHafsa Hatun (Ottoman Turkish:  , "young lioness") was a Turkishprincess, and a consort of Bayezid I, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire.LifeHafsa Hatun was the daughter ofIsa Bey, the ruler of the Aydinids. She was married to Bayezid in 1390, upon his conquest of theAydinids. Her father had surrendered without a fight, and a marriage was arranged between her andBayezid. Thereafter, Isa was sent into exile in Iznik, shorn of his power, where he subsequently died. Hermarriage strengthened the bonds between the two families.CharitiesHafsa Hatun's public works arelocated within her father's territory and may have been built before she married Bayezid. Shecommissioned a fountain in Tire city and a Hermitage in Bademiye, and a mosque known as "Hafsa HatunMosque" between 1390 and 1392 from the money she received in her dowry.See alsoOttomandynastyOttoman EmpirePassage 2:Cornelia (mother of the Gracchi)Cornelia (c. 190s – c. 115 BC) wasthe second daughter of Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus, a Roman general prominent in the SecondPunic War, and Aemilia Paulla. Although drawing similarities to prototypical examples of virtuous Romanwomen, such as Lucretia, Cornelia puts herself apart from the rest because of her interest in literature,writing, and her investment in the political careers of her sons. She was the mother of the Gracchibrothers, and the mother-in-law of Scipio Aemilianus.BiographyCornelia married Tiberius SemproniusGracchus, grandson of Tiberius Sempronius Gracchus, when he was already in middle age. The unionproved to be a happy one, and together they had 12 children, which is very unusual by Roman standards.Six of them were boys and six were girls. Only three are known to have survived childhood: Sempronia,who married her cousin Publius Cornelius Scipio Aemilianus, and the two Gracchi brothers (Tiberius andGaius Gracchus), who would defy the political institutions of Rome with their attempts at popularreforms.After her husband's death, she chose to remain a widow while still enjoying a princess-like statusand set herself to educating her children. She even refused the marriage proposal of King Ptolemy VIIIPhyscon because she is made to be a virtuous and dutiful wife after the death of her only husband.However, her refusal could simply be justified by the fact that she had a desire for more independenceand freedom in the manner in which her children were to be raised.Later in her life, Cornelia studiedliterature, Latin, and Greek. Cornelia took advantage of the Greek scholars she brought to Rome, notablythe philosophers Blossius (from Cumae) and Diophanes (from Mytilene), who were to educate youngmen. She had been taught the importance of receiving an education and came to play an extensive rolein her sons' education during the "bygone republican era," resulting in the creation of a "superior breed ofRoman political leader." Cornelia always supported her sons Tiberius and Gaius, even when their actionsoutraged the conservative patrician families in which she was born. She took a lot of pride in them,comparing her children to "jewels" and other precious things, according to Valerius Maximus.After theirviolent deaths, she retired from Rome to a villa in Misenum but continued to receive guests. Her villa sawthe likes of many learned men, including Greek scholars, who came from all over the Roman world toread and discuss their ideas freely. Rome worshipped her virtues, and when she died at an advanced age,the city voted for a statue in her honor.Role in the political careers of her childrenIt is important to notethat M. I. Finely advances the argument that "the exclusion of women from any direct participation inpolitical or governmental activity" was a normal practice in Ancient Roman society. Therefore, it isextremely difficult to characterize the extent of Cornelia's involvement in the political careers of herchildren, yet there is important evidence to support the fact that she was, at the very least, engaged.Acommon social practice in Rome was extending the political line of a family through dynastic marriages,especially when two families were rising to power at about the same time. The marriage of Sempronia(Cornelia's daughter) to her cousin reaffirmed the continuation of the great Scipio lineage, seeing asthough the legacy of Scipio Africanus had to be continued somehow. Scipio Aemilianus saw importantgrowth in his political prestige as a result of this marriage, although not enough to compare to hisbrothers-in-law and their revolutionary political reforms.One of the most important aspects of the life ofCornelia is her relationship with her adult sons. Most of the information that we have on her role duringthis time is what Plutarch wrote in both the Life of Tiberius Gracchus and the Life of Gaius Gracchus. She


Passage 1:John III, Duke of BrabantJohn III (Dutch: Jan; 1300 – 5 December 1355) was Duke ofBrabant, Lothier (1312–1355) and Limburg (1312–1347 then 1349–1355). He was the son of John II,Duke of Brabant, and Margaret of England.John and the towns of BrabantThe early fourteenth century, aperiod of economic boom for Brabant, marks the rise of the duchy's towns, which depended on imports ofEnglish wool for their essential cloth industry. During John's minority, the major towns of Brabant had theauthority to appoint councillors to direct a regency, under terms of the Charter of Kortenberg granted byhis father in the year of his death (1312). By 1356 his daughter and son-in-law were forced to accept thefamous Joyous Entry as a condition for their recognition, so powerful had the states of Brabantbecome.The marital alignment with France was tested and failed as early as 1316, when Louis Xrequested Brabant to cease trade with Flanders and to participate in a French attack; the councillorsrepresenting the towns found this impossible, and in reprisal Louis prohibited all French trade withBrabant in February 1316, in violation of a treaty of friendship he had signed with Brabant in the previousOctober.The French alliance, 1332–1337After his initial period of maintaining independent neutrality fromboth France and England failed, neighbouring sovereigns in the Low Countries, stimulated as a matter ofpolicy by Philip VI of France, became John's enemies; among the adversaries of John were the Count ofFlanders, the prince-bishop of Liège, and counts of Holland and Guelders. In 1332, a crisis with the kingof France arose over John's hospitality to Robert, count of Artois, during his journey to eventual asylumat the English court. In response to French pressure John reminded Philip that he did not hold Brabantfrom him but from God alone. A brief campaign of a coalition of Philip's friends came to a truce, followedby a pact at Compiègne by which John received a fief from Philip worth 2000 livres and declared himself avassal of France. His oldest son, Jean, was betrothed to Philip's daughter Marie, and it was agreed thatthe Brabançon heir would complete his education at the French court in Paris and that Robert of Artoiswould be expelled from Brabant.The support of France strengthened John's hand with his feudal suzerain,the Holy Roman Emperor. Though he was technically the Emperor's feudal vassal, John had been able toignore Emperor Louis IV's summons to join him in his intended invasion of Lombardy (1327). Theseparation of Brabant from the Empire was completed by the Burgundian dukes of Brabant in thefifteenth century.Meanwhile, the princes of the Low Countries settled their differences and formed acoalition against Brabant with a defensive alliance in June 1333. War was briefly brought to the Duchy ofBrabant in the summer of 1334, but resolved by a peace brokered by Philip at Amiens. The French kingdeclared that John had to hand over the town of Tiel and its neighbouring villages Heerewaarden andZandwijk to the count of Guelders and to betroth his daughter Marie to the count's son, Reinoud.TheEnglish alliance, 1337–1345When Edward III of England decided to press his claim to the crown of Francein 1337, John, who was his first cousin, became an ally of England during the first stage of the HundredYears' War. King Edward's diplomatic offensive to draw Brabant away from France, produced asympathetic response from Duke John. Disrupting the staple connection between the towns of Flandersand the sources of English wool should divert it to the towns of Brabant, notably the recently establishedwool exchange. Edward protected Brabançon merchants in England from arrest or the confiscation oftheir goods, and he sweetened his offers with a promise of £60,000, an immense sum, and to make goodany losses of revenue that might result from penalties by the king of France. The same month of July1337 John promised Edward 1,200 of his men-at-arms in the event of an English campaign in France,Edward to pay their salary. In August Edward pledged not to negotiate with the king without priorconsultation with the duke. The alliance, kept secret at John's insistence, came into the open whenEdward landed with his troops at Antwerp July 1338. John received the promised subsidy (March 1339)and agreed in June to betroth John's second daughter, Margaret, to Edward, the Black Prince, heir to theEnglish throne. Two seasons of inconclusive campaigning that ravaged the north of France left Edwardpenniless at the end of 1341; he returned home, and when he returned to the fray, it was to Brittany: henever returned to the Low Countries.The French alliance, 1345–1355Though John was requesting papaldispensation for the marriage of Margaret and the Black Prince in 1343, the alliance with England

Although that was a positive experience for him, he did not consider making music for familiesuntil he met his wife, collage artist Kate Endle. Her art inspired Ballew to consider making music that"sounded like her art looked" as he has said. Ballew began writing original songs and digging up nurseryrhymes and folk songs in the public domain to interpret and make his own. The first album, Here I Am!,was recorded during the summer of 2008 and released in February 2009.Ballew began to perform solo asCaspar Babypants in the Seattle area in January 2009. Fred Northup, a Seattle-based comedy improvisor,heard the album and offered to play as his live percussionist.  Northrup also suggested his frequentcollaborator Ron Hippe as a keyboard player. "Frederick Babyshirt" and "Ronald Babyshoes" were theCaspar Babypants live band from May 2009 to April 2012. Both Northup and Hippe appear on some of hisrecordings but since April 2012 Caspar Babypants has exclusively performed solo. The reasons for thechange were to include more improvisation in the show and to reduce the sound levels so that very youngchildren and newborns could continue to attend without being overstimulated. Ballew has made twoalbums of Beatles covers as Caspar Babypants. Baby Beatles! came out in September 2013 and BeatlesBaby! came out in September 2015.Ballew runs the Aurora Elephant Music record label, books shows,produces, records, and masters the albums himself.

Passage 1:Arthur BeauchampArthur Beauchamp (1827 – 28 April 1910) was a Member of Parliament from New Zealand. He is remembered as the father of Harold Beauchamp, who rose to fame as chairman of the Bank of New Zealand and was the father of writer Katherine Mansfield.BiographyBeauchamp came to Nelson from Australia on the Lalla Rookh, arriving on 23 February 1861.He lived much of his life in a number of locations around the top of the South Island, also Whanganui when Harold was 11 for seven years and then to the capital (Wellington). Then south to Christchurch and finally Picton and the Sounds. He had business failures and was bankrupted twice, in 1879 and 1884. He married Mary Stanley on the Victorian goldfields in 1854; Arthur and Mary lived in 18 locations over half a century, and are buried in Picton. Six of their ten children born between 1855 and 1893 died, including the first two sons born before Harold.Beauchamp represented the Picton electorate from 1866 to 1867, when he resigned.  He had the energy and sociability required for politics, but not the private income then required to be a parliamentarian. He supported the working man and the subdivision of big estates, opposed the confiscation of Māori land and was later recognised as a founding Liberal, the party that Harold supported and was a "fixer" for. Yska calls their life an extended chronicle of rootlessness, business failure and almost ceaseless family tragedy and Harold called his father a rolling stone by instinct. Arthur also served on the council of Marlborough Province and is best-remembered for a 10-hour speech to that body when an attempt was made to relocate the capital from Picton to Blenheim.In 1866 he attempted to sue the Speaker of the House, David Monro. At the time the extent of privilege held by Members of Parliament was unclear; a select committee ruled that the case could proceed, but with a stay until after the parliamentary session.See alsoYska, Redmer (2017).

He was the father of Obata Masamori.See alsoIsao ObataPassage 3:John Templeton (botanist)John Templeton (1766–1825) was a pioneering Irish naturalist, sometimes referred to as the "Father of Irish Botany". He was a leading figure in Belfast's late eighteenth century enlightenment, initially supported the  United Irishmen, and figured prominently in the town's scientific and literary societies.FamilyTempleton was born in Belfast in 1766, the son of James Templeton, a prosperous wholesale merchant, and his wife Mary Eleanor, daughter of Benjamin Legg, a sugar refiner. The family resided in a 17th century country house to the south of the town, which been named Orange Grove in honour of William of Orange who had stopped at the house en route to his victory over James II at the Battle of the Boyne in 1690.Until the age of 16 Templeton attended a progressive, co-educational, school favoured by the town's liberal, largely Presbyterian, merchant class. Schoolmaster David Manson sought to exclude "drudgery and fear" by combining classroom instruction with play and experiential learning. Templeton counted among his schoolfellows brother and sister Henry Joy and Mary Ann McCracken, and maintained a warm friendship with them throughout his life.In 1799, Templeton married Katherine Johnson of Seymour Hill. Her family had been touched by the United Irish rebellion the previous year: her brother-in-law, Henry Munro, commander of the United army at the Battle of Ballynahinch, had been hanged. The couple had five children: Ellen, born on 30 September 1800, Robert, born on 12 December 1802, Catherine, born on 19 July 1806, Mary, born on 9 December 1809 and Matilda on 2 November 1813.The union between the two already prosperous merchant families provided more than ample means enabling Templeton to devote himself passionately to the study of natural history.United IrishmanLike many of his liberal Presbyterian peers in Belfast, Templeton was sympathetic to the programme and aims of the Society United Irishmen:  Catholic Emancipation and democratic reform of the Irish Parliament. But it was several years before he was persuaded to take the United Irish "test" or pledge. In March 1797 his friend, Mary Ann McCracken, wrote to her brother: [A] certain Botanical friend of ours whose steady and inflexible mind is invulnerable to any other weapon but reason, and only to be moved by conviction has at last turned his attention from the vegetable kingdom to the human species and

Passage 1:The Man Without a Country (1973 film)The Man Without a Country is a 1973 Americanmade-for-television drama film based on the short story "The Man Without a Country" by Edward EverettHale.PlotA man damns his country and is sentenced to spend the rest of his life inexile.CastProductionRosemont spent three years trying to raise finance. He spent $16,000 of his ownmoney to prepare a visual presentation of the film and arranged for a script for be written by SidneyCarroll. During the course of research he discovered that the book was not based on a true story althoughit was inspired by the Aaron Burr conspiracy.He eventually succeeded in getting sponsorship fromEastman Kodak."Casting was so essential," said Rosemont. "We had to find an actor who could age 60years on screen. The makeup was the easiest. Making him look young was the hardest."Rosemontapproached Cliff Robertson, although the actor had not done television for years. "But when he saw ourresearch it turned him on." he said. "It's a dream part for an actor."Cliff Robertson signed to make thefilm in August 1972 and filming began in September. "We had to change our schedule to fit Cliff's," saidRosemont. "It cost me a lot of money but it was worth it."Filming took place in Mystic, Connecticut,Newport, Rhode Island and Fort Niagara, New York.Director Delbert Mann says Robertson was "verydifficult to work with" on the film. He gave an instance where Robertson kept emphasising the word"United" when referring to the "United States" ("he thought the young people would reject the patriotismaspects"). "We went for about 20 takes, he never changed it, but he modified it on the last take, whichwe used in the picture. He still wouldn't change it in post-production dubbing. It was a matter of takingthe best take we had and going with it."Filming was expensive. "I do my own work," said Rosemont. "Ifthere's a deficit I pay for it. My money is on the line. I put it on screen. Hopefully it will enjoy manyrepeats; it's an ageless story, a potential TV perennial."LocationsIn the summer of 1972, the replica ofHMS Rose (later renamed HMS Surprise for another film) was hired for the film, a made-for-televisionproduction. Norman Rosemont Productions was unable to find the money to take the ship out sailing, soall the filming was shot with sails set, as the ship was securely moored to the pier, next to the causewayto Goat Island. During filming Cliff Robertson had to hide that he had a broken leg at thetime.ReceptionMann said, "The end result was fascinating. The older audience took to the picture and thecritics were marvelous. People saying, look at the unfeeling government, crushing this man. The youngpeople got what they wanted and others saw it as love of country. We had it both ways."AwardsThe filmwas nominated for Best Cinematography for Entertainment Programming – For a Special or FeatureLength Program Made for Television at the 26th Primetime Emmy Awards.Passage 2:Nick StahlNicolasKent Stahl (born December 5, 1979) is an American actor.
