Question: Which poisonous element can be either grey, yellow or black and combines with sulphur as realgar?

Realgar
Realgar, α-AsS, is an arsenic sulfide mineral, also known as "ruby sulphur" or "ruby of arsenic". It is a soft, sectile mineral occurring in monoclinic crystals, or in granular, compact, or powdery form, often in association with the related mineral, orpiment (AsS). It is orange-red in color, melts at 320 °C, and burns with a bluish flame releasing fumes of arsenic and sulfur. Realgar is soft with a Mohs hardness of 1.5 to 2 and has a specific gravity of 3.5. Its streak is orange colored. It is trimorphous with alacranite and pararealgar. Its name comes from the Arabic "rahj al-ġār" (, "powder of the mine"), via Catalan and Medieval Latin, and its earliest record in English is in the 1390s. Occurrence. Realgar most commonly occurs as a

Realgar
realgar is "xionghuang" 雄黃, literally 'masculine yellow', as opposed to orpiment which was 'feminine yellow'. Its toxicity was also well known to them, and it was frequently sprinkled around houses to repel snakes and insects, as well as being used in Chinese medicine. Realgar is mixed with rice liquor to make realgar wine, which is consumed during the Dragon Boat Festival in order to ward off evil, alluding to its repellent properties. (This practice has become rarer in modern times, with the awareness that realgar is a toxic arsenic compound.) Realgar was commonly applied in leather manufacturing to remove the hair from animal pelts. Because realgar is a known carcinogen, and an arsenic poison, and because competitive substitutes are available, it is rarely used today for this purpose.

Toxic heavy metal
of an element. The following sections provide historical thumbnails for the "classical" toxic heavy metals (arsenic, mercury and lead) and some more recent examples (chromium and cadmium). History.:Arsenic. Arsenic, as realgar () and orpiment (), was known in ancient times. Strabo (64–50 BCE – c. AD 24?), a Greek geographer and historian, wrote that only slaves were employed in realgar and orpiment mines since they would inevitably die from the toxic effects of the fumes given off from the ores. Arsenic-contaminated beer poisoned over 6,000 people in the Manchester area of England in 1900, and is thought to have killed at least 70 victims. Clare Luce, American ambassador to Italy from 1953 to 1956, suffered from arsenic poisoning. Its source was traced to flaking arsenic-laden paint on the

Orpiment
Orpiment is a deep-colored, orange-yellow arsenic sulfide mineral with formula . It is found in volcanic fumaroles, low-temperature hydrothermal veins, and hot springs and is formed both by sublimation and as a byproduct of the decay of another arsenic mineral, realgar. Orpiment takes its name from the Latin "auripigmentum" ("aurum", "gold" + "pigmentum", "pigment") because of its deep-yellow color. Historical uses. Orpiment was traded in the Roman Empire and was used as a medicine in China, even though it is very toxic. It has been used as fly poison and to tip arrows with poison. Because of its striking color, it was of interest to alchemists, both in China and the West, searching for a way to make gold. For centuries, orpiment was ground down and used as

Agathodaemon (alchemist)
Agathodaemon (, "Agathodaímōn"; ) was an alchemist in late Roman Egypt, known only from fragments quoted in medieval alchemical treatises, chiefly the "Anepigraphos", which refer to works of his believed to be from the 3rd century. He is primarily remembered for his various descriptions of elements and minerals, most particularly his descriptions of a method of producing silver, and of a substance he had created, which he called a 'fiery poison', and which, judging by his account, was arsenic trioxide, a highly toxic amphoteric oxide. He described the 'fiery poison' as being formed when a certain mineral (most probably realgar or orpiment) was fused with natron (naturally occurring sodium carbonate), and that dissolved in water to give a clear solution. He also wrote of how, when he placed

Answer: Arsenic is the poisonous element that can be found as realgar, which comes in orange-red color and combines with sulphur. It can also be found in grey or yellow forms as orpiment.

Question: What helped revitalize Western translation traditions from Arabic?

Translation
(Cairo, Egypt), and the Al-Nizamiyya of Baghdad. In terms of theory, Arabic translation drew heavily on earlier Near Eastern traditions as well as more contemporary Greek and Persian traditions. Arabic translation efforts and techniques are important to Western translation traditions due to centuries of close contacts and exchanges. Especially after the Renaissance, Europeans began more intensive study of Arabic and Persian translations of classical works as well as scientific and philosophical works of Arab and oriental origins. Arabic and, to a lesser degree, Persian became important sources of material and perhaps of techniques for revitalized Western traditions, which in time would overtake the Islamic and oriental traditions. In the 19th century, after the Middle East's Islamic clerics and copyists A translator who contributed mightily to the advance of

Modern Arabic literature
modern Arabic literature fully appeared through the interdependence between two important movements: the revival of the classical Arabic tradition and the translation of foreign literature. Advocates of the former movement began their work at the onset of the 19th century to resist the decline Arabic literature and its styles were facing. High quality traditional literary models were thus disseminated and imitated to create new literary models. Meanwhile, proponents of the translation movement included an array of authors such as Ibrahim al-Yaziji (1871) from the Levant, Ali Mubarak (1893) from Egypt, and Mahmoud Shukri al-Alusi (1923) from Iraq. Both Mubarak and al-Yaziji wrote the Maqamat (lengthy literary works of rhymed prose) "Alam Eddin" and "Majma' al-Bahrain" [Where Two Seas Meet] respectively, while al-Alusi authored "Balaghat al-Arab" [The Eloquence of

Translation
the Islamic Enlightenment was the Egyptian cleric Rifaa al-Tahtawi (1801–73), who had spent five years in Paris in the late 1820s, teaching religion to Muslim students. After returning to Cairo with the encouragement of Muhammad Ali (1769–1849), the Ottoman viceroy of Egypt, al–Tahtawi became head of the new school of languages and embarked on an intellectual revolution by initiating a program to translate some two thousand European and Turkish volumes, ranging from ancient texts on geography and geometry to Voltaire's biography of Peter the Great, along with the "Marseillaise" and the entire "Code Napoléon". This was the biggest, most meaningful importation of foreign thought into Arabic since Abbasid times (750–1258). The movement to translate English and European texts transformed the Arabic and Ottoman Turkish languages, and new words,

al-Hasib al-Marwazi, at least ninety-five works by Galen, fifteen works by Hippocrates, Plato's Timaeus, Aristotle's Metaphysics, On the Soul, and On Generation and Corruption were translated. The Arabic language reached communities in Transoxiana, Morocco, and Andalusia, and was soon adopted as their official language. The Umayyad caliphs significantly contributed to the translation of science and arts, which laid out a long-term foundation for the Islamic Empire. As Islam expanded, Muslims preserved other cultures and utilized their technology and knowledge in science to stimulate the development of their own knowledge. Umayyad Period (661-750 CE).:Abbasid Period (750-1258 CE). The Arabic translation movement continued to develop throughout the Abbasid period.

Modern Standard Arabic
Modern Standard Arabic (MSA), or Modern Written Arabic (shortened to MWA) is a term used mostly by Western linguists to refer to the variety of standardized, literary Arabic that developed in the Arab world in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. MSA differs from what Western linguists call Classical Arabic (CA; )—the variety of standard Arabic in the Quran and early Islamic (7th to 9th centuries) literature—most markedly in that it adopts words from European languages to describe industrial and post-industrial life. Native speakers of Arabic generally do not distinguish between "Modern Standard Arabic" and "Classical Arabic" as separate languages; they refer to both as () meaning "Standard Arabic" or "Literary Arabic." They consider the two forms to be two registers of one language; they're referred to

Arabic translations of classical, scientific, and philosophical works, along with the techniques used in these translations, helped revitalize Western translation traditions.

Answer: The revitalization of Western translation traditions from Arabic was due to intensive study of Arabic and Persian translations of classical works, scientific and philosophical works of Arab and oriental origins during and after the Renaissance. These translations provided important sources of material and techniques that contributed to the development of Western traditions, which eventually surpassed the Islamic and oriental traditions. Notable figures in the 19th century Arabic translation movement in the Middle East include Rifaa al-Tahtawi, Ibrahim al-Yaziji, Ali Mubarak, and Mahmoud Shukri al-Alusi, who translated various European texts and contributed to the emergence of modern Arabic literature. The Umayyad and Abbasid periods also played significant roles in the Arabic translation movement, with the Umayyads contributing to the translation of science and arts and the Abbasids translating Islam's central texts into Modern Standard Arabic.


Question: Who deemed Henry III's coronation to be improper?

Henry III of England
Henry III (1 October 1207 – 16 November 1272), also known as Henry of Winchester, was King of England, Lord of Ireland, and Duke of Aquitaine from 1216 until his death. The son of King John and Isabella of Angoulême, Henry assumed the throne when he was only nine in the middle of the First Barons' War. Cardinal Guala declared the war against the rebel barons to be a religious crusade and Henry's forces, led by William Marshal, defeated the rebels at the battles of Lincoln and Sandwich in 1217. Henry promised to abide by the Great Charter of 1225, which limited royal power and protected the rights of the major barons. His early rule was dominated first by Hubert de Burgh and then Peter des Roches, who

Henry III of England
in 1290, contemporaries noted that the body was in perfect condition and that Henry's long beard remained well preserved, which at the time was considered to be an indication of saintly purity. Miracles began to be reported at the tomb, but Edward was sceptical about these stories. The reports ceased, and Henry was never canonised. In 1292 Henry's heart was removed from his tomb and reburied at Fontevraud Abbey with the bodies of his Angevin family. Legacy. Legacy.:Historiography. The first histories of Henry's reign emerged in the 16th and 17th centuries, relying primarily on the accounts of medieval chroniclers, in particular writings of Roger of Wendover and Matthew Paris. These early historians, including Archbishop Matthew Parker, were influenced by contemporary concerns about the roles of the Church and

Edward IV of England
III declared that Edward V was illegitimate, and three days later the matter was addressed by parliament. In "Titulus Regius" (the text of which is believed to come word-for-word from the petition presented by Henry Stafford, 2nd Duke of Buckingham, to the assembly which met on 25 June 1483, to decide on the future of the monarchy), Richard III is described as "the undoubted son and heir" of Richard Plantagenet, 3rd Duke of York, and "born in this land" – an oblique reference to his brother's birth at Rouen and baptism in circumstances that could have been considered questionable. There is no confirmation for the view – as fictionalised in William Shakespeare's "Richard III" (Act 3, Scene 5) – that Richard made any claims about his brother's legitimacy,

Henry VIII of England
Henry VIII (28 June 1491 – 28 January 1547) was King of England from 1509 until his death in 1547. He was the second Tudor monarch, succeeding his father Henry VII. Henry is best known for his six marriages, in particular his efforts to have his first marriage (to Catherine of Aragon) annulled. His disagreement with the Pope on the question of such an annulment led Henry to initiate the English Reformation, separating the Church of England from papal authority. He appointed himself the Supreme Head of the Church of England and dissolved convents and monasteries, for which he was excommunicated. Henry is also known as "the father of the Royal Navy"; he invested heavily in the Navy, increasing its size greatly from a few to more than

Thomas Cranmer
Thomas Cranmer (2 July 1489 – 21 March 1556) was a leader of the English Reformation and Archbishop of Canterbury during the reigns of Henry VIII, Edward VI and, for a short time, Mary I. He helped build the case for the annulment of Henry's marriage to Catherine of Aragon, which was one of the causes of the separation of the English Church from union with the Holy See. Along with Thomas Cromwell, he supported the principle of Royal Supremacy, in which the king was considered sovereign over the Church within his realm. During Cranmer's tenure as Archbishop of Canterbury, he was responsible for establishing the first doctrinal and liturgical structures of the reformed Church of England. Under Henry's rule, Cranmer did not make many radical changes in

The question is based on a misunderstanding. Henry III was not deemed to have an improper coronation. He was crowned king in 1216, following the death of his father, King John, and his coronation was recognized as legitimate by the barons and the Church. There is no historical record indicating that his coronation was considered improper.

Answer: There is no information in the provided text that indicates who deemed Henry III's coronation to be improper. The text discusses his reign, the reports of miracles after his death, and the historiography of his rule.

of social and political groups as targets of genocide in the CPPCG legal definition has been criticized by some historians and sociologists, for example M. Hassan Kakar in his book "The Soviet Invasion and the Afghan Response, 1979–1982" argues that the international definition of genocide is too restricted, and that it should include political groups or any group so defined by the perpetrator and quotes Chalk and Jonassohn: "Genocide is a form of one-sided mass killing in which a state or other authority intends to destroy a group, as that group and membership in it are defined by the perpetrator."

Genocide
Genocide is intentional action to destroy a group of people (usually defined as an ethnic, national, racial, or religious group) in whole or in part.

In 1941, Winston Churchill, when describing the German invasion of the Soviet Union, spoke of "a crime without a name". In 1944, Raphael Lemkin created the term "genocide" in his book "Axis Rule in Occupied Europe". The book describes the implementation of Nazi policies in occupied Europe, and cites earlier mass killings. The term described the systematic destruction of a nation or people, and the word was quickly adopted by many in the international community. The word "genocide" is the combination of the Greek prefix "geno-" (γένος, meaning 'race' or 'people') and "caedere" (the Latin word for "to kill"). The word "genocide" was used

Shōen
is to say shōen owners, who originally cultivated influence with the government in the capital during the Nara period, came to discard the connection with the central government and to cultivate their power over local peasants. Another distinguishing feature of chūsei-shōen are their exemptions from some kinds of tax imposed by the central government. In the middle or the end of the Heian period there were two types of tax. One type of tax was corvee labor under the supervision of "kuni", and the other was a tax on farm products (about three percent of rice or other farm products). To evade these taxes, peasants wanted to be ruled and protected by the shōen owners, which was usually a politically influential Buddhist temple, Shinto shrine or court noble.

Shōen
A was a field or manor in Japan. The Japanese term comes from the Tang dynasty Chinese term "莊園" (Mandarin: "zhuāngyuán", Cantonese: "zong1 jyun4"). Shōen, from about the 8th to the late 15th century, describes any of the private, tax-free, often autonomous estates or manors whose rise undermined the political and economic power of the emperor and contributed to the growth of powerful local clans. The estates developed from land tracts assigned to officially sanctioned Shintō shrines or Buddhist temples or granted by the emperor as gifts to the Imperial family, friends, or officials. As these estates grew, they became independent of the civil administrative system and contributed to the rise of a local military class. With the establishment of the Kamakura shogunate, or military dictatorship, in 1192,

These are the seven listed as "shichidō" elements of a temple. A 15th-century text describes how Zen school temples (Sōtō (), Rinzai ()) included a "butsuden" or "butsu-dō" (main hall), a "hattō" (lecture hall), a "kuin" (kitchen/office), a "sō-dō" (building dedicated to Zazen), a "sanmon" (main gate), a "tōsu" (toilet) and a "yokushitsu" (bath).
