Rinkitink in Oz

Rinkitink in Oz is the tenth book in the Oz series written by L. Frank Baum. It was published on June 20, 1916, with full-color and black-and-white illustrations by artist John R. Neill. It is notable that most of the action takes place outside of Oz, and no character from Oz appears in the novel until its climax; this is due to Baum's having originally written most of the book as a fantasy novel unrelated to his Oz books over ten years earlier, in 1905. It was followed by The Lost Princess of Oz (1917).

Plot summary
Prince Inga is the son of King Kitticut and Queen Garee, who rule the island kingdom of Pingaree. Kitticut tells Inga that years earlier, when armies from the neighboring islands of Regos and Coregos attempted to invade and conquer Pingaree, they were repelled by Kitticut himself with the aid of three magic pearls. The blue pearl gives its bearer superhuman strength, the pink pearl protects him from any harm, and the white pearl speaks words of wisdom.

The jovial fat King Rinkitink of Gilgad arrives in Pingaree on royal holiday, and remains as Kitticut's guest for several weeks. Rinkitink usually rides Bilbil, a surly talking goat. One day invaders from Regos and Coregos arrive again, and seize King Kitticut before he can reach his magic pearls. All the people are carried into slavery, except Inga and Rinkitink who escape along with Bilbil. Inga resolves to free his people with the aid of the magic pearls. Keeping the pearls secret from Rinkitink, he hides them in his shoes, and the three sail to Regos.

The wicked King Gos of Regos and his army are easily defeated by the strength and invulnerability of Inga, and they flee to the neighboring island of Coregos, ruled by the equally wicked Queen Cor. Inga and Rinkitink sleep in the palace, but the next morning both shoes along with the pink and blue pearls they contain are accidentally lost. The shoes are found by a poor charcoal burner, who takes them home to give to his daughter Zella. Queen Cor arrives on Regos and captures the now powerless Inga and Rinkitink, and brings them back to Coregos.

Zella, wearing the shoes but unaware of the power they convey, travels to the palace on Coregos to sell honey to Queen Cor. Inga sees her and, recognizing her shoes, trades shoes with her. Again possessing the pearls, he overpowers Cor who escapes and flees to Regos. Inga frees the enslaved people of Pingaree, who sail back home. However his parents are still captives of Gos and Cor, who take them to the neighboring country of the subterranean Nomes, and pay the Nome King Kaliko to use his magic to keep them captive.

Inga, Rinkitink and Bilbil arrive in the Nome Kingdom. For safety, Rinkitink carries the pink pearl which confers invulnerability. The Nome King refuses to release Inga's parents because of his promise to Cor and Gos, although he claims to bear no animosity toward the travelers. Rinkitink and Inga sleep in the Nome King's palace that night, but in the morning Kaliko attempts to kill both of them by various devious traps. Both escape by means of the power of the pearls they carry.

In Oz, Dorothy learns of these events and travels to the Nome Kingdom with the Wizard of Oz to confront Kaliko. She forces him to release Inga's parents. Reunited with Inga, they all travel to Oz. The Wizard discovers that Bilbil is actually Prince Bobo of Boboland who has been turned into a goat by a cruel magician. He and Glinda are able to restore him to human form, which also cures his disagreeable disposition.

Inga, his parents, Rinkitink, and Bobo return to the rebuilt island of Pingaree. Soon afterwards, a boat arrives from Gilgad to take Rinkitink back home. Rinkitink objects that he does not want to return to his royal duties, but eventually is persuaded to return, accompanied by his friend Prince Bobo.

Reissues
In 1939, Rinkitink in Oz was one of six Oz books specially reissued by Rand McNally in a condensed, small-format "junior edition" for young readers, as a promotion for the MGM film of The Wizard of Oz.

According to A Brief Guide to Oz, a "brief racial insult — a tottenhot is a lesser form of man - has been excised from some later editions."

Piano Quintet (Schumann)

The Piano Quintet in E-flat major, Op. 44, by Robert Schumann was composed in 1842 and received its first public performance the following year. Noted for its "extroverted, exuberant" character, Schumann's piano quintet is considered one of his finest compositions and a major work of nineteenth-century chamber music. Composed for piano and string quartet, the work revolutionized the instrumentation and musical character of the piano quintet and established it as a quintessentially Romantic genre.

The autograph manuscript of the work is preserved in the Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Bonn.

Composition and performance
Schumann composed his piano quintet in just a few weeks in September and October 1842, in the course of his so-called Year of Chamber Music. Before 1842 Schumann had completed no chamber music at all, with the exception of an early piano quartet composed in 1829. Following his marriage to Clara in 1840, Schumann turned to the composition of songs, chamber music and orchestral works. During his year-long concentration in 1842 upon chamber music he executed the three string quartets, Op. 41, the piano quintet, Op. 44; the piano quartet, Op. 47; and the Phantasiestücke for piano trio, Op. 88. Schumann's work in that year was buoyant in character; John Daverio considers the Piano Quintet to be the "creative double" of the Piano Quartet that was written few weeks later, both displaying the "extroverted, exuberant side of the composer's creative genius".

Schumann had begun his career primarily as a composer for the keyboard; after his detour into writing for string quartet, according to Joan Chisell, the "reunion with the piano" which the piano quintet provoked gave "his creative imagination ... a new lease on life."

Schumann dedicated the piano quintet to his wife Clara. She was due to perform the piano part in the first private performance of the quintet on the 6th December 1842 at the home of Henriette Voigt and her husband Carl. However she fell ill and Felix Mendelssohn stepped in, sight-reading the "fiendish" piano part. Mendelssohn's suggestions to Schumann after this performance led to revisions to the inner movements, including the addition to the third movement of a second trio.

Clara Schumann did play the piano part at the quintet's first public performance, which took place on the 8th January 1843 at the Leipzig Gewandhaus. Clara pronounced the work "splendid, full of vigor and freshness." She often performed the quintet throughout her life. A notable performance came in 1852, when Schumann asked that the younger pianist Julius Tausch replace Clara in the quintet, explaining that "a man understands that better."

Instrumentation and genre
Schumann's piano quintet is scored for piano and string quartet (two violins, viola, and cello).

Schumann's pairing the piano with an ordinary string quartet reflected the changing technical capabilities of the piano and the cultural importance of the quartet. By 1842, the string quartet had come to be regarded as the most significant and prestigious of the chamber music ensembles, while advances in the design of the piano had increased its power and dynamic range. Bringing the piano and string quartet together, Schumann's quintet exploits fully the expressive capacity of these forces in combination, alternating conversational passages between the five instruments with concerto-like sections in which the combined forces of the strings are massed against the piano. At a time when chamber music was moving out of the salon and into public concert halls, Schumann reimagined the piano quintet as a musical genre "suspended between private and public spheres" according to Daverio, alternating between "quasi-symphonic and more properly chamber-like elements."

Influences of Beethoven and Schubert on the piano quintet
Tovey remarks the formal influence which Beethoven exerted over the quintet. He argues that the final movement's lengthy coda is a typically Beethovenian device, and likens the quintet in this respect to the ninth and fourteenth string quartets. He writes that the scherzo so much reflects his style that it "might almost have come from Beethoven."

Daverio has argued that the quintet was influenced by Schubert's Piano Trio No. 2 in E-flat major, a work Schumann had studied and performed intensively over several months in 1828-1829 and which he greatly admired, describing it as Schubert's "immortal trio." Both works are in the key of E-flat, feature a funeral march in the second movement, and conclude with finales dramatically resurrecting earlier thematic material, a composition technique called cyclic form.

Analysis
The piece has four movements in the standard fast-slow-scherzo-fast pattern: 1. Allegro brillante

2. In modo d'una marcia. Un poco largamente

3. Scherzo: Molto vivace

4. Allegro ma non troppo

I. Allegro brillante
The first movement's is marked Allegro brillante. This movement exposes much material which reappears later in the work. It sets in contrast exuberant material reflecting Schumann's brilliant, wild side, as described by Schumann in the character of Florestan, with slower, 'Eusebian' sections of great passion.

The movement's energetic main theme opens in minims, and characterized by wide, upward-leaping intervals. Tovey writes of the theme that its use of upward leaps is so striking that "it is impossible for the violoncello to throw in a casual leap of an octave in minims without implying the first theme". The contrasting second theme, marked dolce, is reached after a transitional section marked by glances at remoter flat keys. It is presented as a duet between cello and viola, and its "meltingly romantic" character is typical of Schumann's ardent inspiration in this quintet.

The central development consists largely of virtuoso figuration in the piano, based on a diminution of the third and fourth bars of the opening theme, which modulates between two vigorous statements of the latter in A-flat and F minor. The figuration is transposed down a tone more or less exactly on its second appearance to lead back to the tonic key. After a standard recapitulation of the main themes a short, energetic coda rounds off the movement. In overall form the opening Allegro is tightly organised, but a deviation from the Beethovenian model. Tovey writes: "he is writing an altogether new type of sonata-work; a kind that stands to the classical sonata somewhat as a very beautiful and elaborate mosaic stands to a landscape-picture."

II. In modo d'una marcia. Un poco largamente
The main theme (A) of this movement is a funeral march in C minor. It alternates with two contrasting episodes, one a lyrical theme (B) carried by the first violin and cello, the second (C), Agitato, carried by the piano with string accompaniment, which is a transformation of the principal theme disguised by changes in rhythm and tempo. The whole forms a seven-part rondo:

 * A (C minor)
 * B (C major)
 * A (C minor)
 * C (variant of A, F minor)
 * A′ (C minor)
 * B′ (F major)
 * A (C minor)

The transition between funeral march and Agitato episode reuses in the piano and violin the descending octaves appearing at the end of the first movement's exposition (see figure). This is one of several moments in the quintet where Schumann creates unity across movements by subtly reintroducing thematic material. Theme A, the funeral march, is varied upon its return after the Agitato section with rapid triplets in the piano and counterpoint reminiscent of the previous episode in first violin and cello, while the second appearance of B in F major also is with an enriched piano accompaniment.

III. Scherzo: Molto vivace
The main section of this lively movement is built almost entirely on ascending and descending scales. There are two trios. Trio I, in G-flat major, is a lyrical canon for violin and viola. Trio II, added at the suggestion of Mendelssohn, is a heavily accented moto perpetuo whose meter and restlessly modulating, mostly minor tonality are in sharp contrast to the  and relative stability of the rest. Since Mendelssohn mentioned that this section wasn't "lively" enough, Schumann rewrote it with a flurry of sixteenth notes making it very demanding for the strings, particularly the cello. After the third and final appearance of the scherzo, a brief coda based on the scales concludes the movement, slipping in a recall of Trio I in the final bars.

IV. Allegro ma non troppo
The finale begins in G minor, on a C-minor chord, rather than in the tonic. The movement as a whole is cast in an unusual form that partly reflects, but ultimately triumphs over Schumann's frequent difficulties with the conventional sonata form in his larger-scale instrumental movements. The original handling of both form and key contrasts sharply with the largely conventional formal organization of the previous three movements.

A summary of the main themes and key areas follows:

 * m. 1: G minor theme A1
 * m. 21: E-flat major theme A2
 * m. 29: D minor A1
 * m. 37: B-flat major A2
 * m. 43: G major theme B (with an important motive B′, first introduced by the viola in 54), B itself is a diminished version of A2.
 * m. 77: B minor-major A1
 * m. 114: E major-G-sharp minor theme C (accompanied by B′)

 * m. 136: G-sharp minor A1
 * m. 148: D-sharp minor A1
 * m. 156: B major A2
 * m. 164: B-flat minor A1
 * m. 172: G-flat major A2
 * m. 178: E-flat major B recapitulated

 * m. 212: G minor A1
 * m. 224: E-flat major theme D
 * m. 248: Fugato on A1
 * m. 274: E-flat major C (B’) recapitulated
 * m. 319: E-flat major, fugato on A1 combined with the opening theme of the first movement, Allegro brillante
 * m. 378: E-flat major D recapitulated
 * m. 402: Coda

The main themes, A1, A2, B and C, are all introduced in the first 135 bars, making this opening roughly equivalent to a sonata exposition. The tonic key, however, is almost entirely absent, with the music mostly remaining in G minor/major until the introduction of the lyrical theme C in the remote key of E major at m. 114. The music modulates to G-sharp minor to begin what is essentially a recapitulation in m. 136, with B returning in E-flat to finally establish the true tonic in m. 178, very late in a lengthy movement.

More than 200 bars remain to unfold, however, almost entirely in the tonic. During their course, Schumann introduces yet another theme, the syncopated D, gets around to recapitulating the lyrical theme C in the tonic, and develops the music further via two fugato passages, the second unexpectedly and impressively incorporating the principal theme of the opening Allegro brillante and combining it with the opening theme A1, finally heard in the tonic.

This coup may have been inspired by a similar confluence of themes in Mendelssohn's E flat quartet op. 12. It also, probably deliberately, evokes the climactic contrapuntal finales of works such as Mozart's Jupiter Symphony. The movement as a whole can be noted for the rondo-like reappearances of the opening theme A1, which consistently avoids the tonic key until the final fugato; for its innovative key scheme, which combines the restless modulations of a traditional sonata development with the idea of recapitulation in the tonic; and for its successful integration of counterpoint within a non-contrapuntal formal structure.

Reception and influence
Schumann's piano quintet was widely acclaimed and much imitated. Its success firmly established the piano quintet as a significant, and quintessentially Romantic, chamber music genre. The Piano Quintet in F minor, Op. 34 of Johannes Brahms, reworked from an earlier sonata for two pianos (itself a reworking of an earlier string quintet) at the urging of Clara Schumann, was one of a number of later piano quintets that show Schumann's influence and adopt his choice of instrumentation.

Schumann's Piano Quintet failed to please at least one discriminating listener: Franz Liszt heard the piece performed at Schumann's home in 1848 and described it as "somewhat too Leipzigerisch," a reference to the conservative music of composers from Leipzig, especially Felix Mendelssohn. Schumann took enormous offense at this remark, especially because Mendelssohn, who was a great friend of Schumann's and whom Schumann somewhat idolised, had died only a year earlier. By some accounts Schumann rushed at Liszt and seized him by the shoulders. Liszt eventually apologised. Schumann did not forget Liszt's offhanded insult, and mentioned it several times in letters to Liszt. Liszt's relationship with the Schumanns was never entirely mended.

Use in later art and music
The funeral march theme of the second movement is prominently used as the main theme of the film Fanny and Alexander by Ingmar Bergman, and is played on violin by Rutger Hauer's character Lothos while Buffy kills the vampire portrayed by Paul Reubens in the 1992 feature Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It is also featured prominently on the all-classical soundtrack of the noted 1934 horror film The Black Cat. It is used several times in Yorgos Lanthimos' 2018 period piece The Favourite.

I've removed the label Euclidean geometry from all of the Scientists entries except Euclid himself. Ancient Greek geometers can be said to have worked on Euclidean geometry (in the modern sense) only to the extent that it was the only type of geometry around at that time; in this sense the term is completely redundant, much like specifying Greek on every entry.

Summary
You cannot have a summary for what you think a "Greek person" is, and you especially can not include people who are "Greek language|Greek -speaking/writing". If you have a list called "List of Greeks", it must have people on it who are Greek (or at least who have been described as "Greek" by a reliable source), not who are anything that you think makes them Greek. Anything else is a violation of Original Research. There is also no point in listing Americans, because there is a list of Greek-Americans, so if everyone on that list automatically belongs here, then why do we have that list at all? Mad Jack O'Lantern 15:32, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

 * What is the basis for your list of commands and claims? --Mel Etitis ( Μελ Ετητης ) 22:21, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Maybe trying to bring order to the disorder that is Wikipedia?? This list needs to be either renamed or edited, take your pick. Pete Sampras is an American of Greek descent for example. --Tom 00:02, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * It's very simple Mel Etitis. If you want to keep that definition, you're going to have to cite that it's the definition for "Greek" from a reliable source. If you want to keep Aniston here, you're going to have to cite a source (a reliable source, not a trivia website) that calls her "Greek" (not Greek-American). It's that simple - basic Wiki policy. Mad Jack O'Lantern 00:34, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Let's get things straight, which the assumption of an adversarial process by Jack O'Lantern and Threeafterthree might be muddying. The summary isn't mine, adn I have no proprietorial interest in it. Rather, after cleaning up and defending this list for a while, I saw someone with no previous interest in it suddenly change the summary without any attempt at discussion with other editors. I'm open to discussion as to how to improve the list – and am more than happy to agree that it needs improvement – but the abrupt and arrogant way in which Jack O'Lantern swept in and started laying down the law was not the way to achieve Wikipedia-style consensus.

Note that "This is a list of Greek people" is absurd as a summary. All Greek people? A random selection? Note also that limiting entries to people for whom there are articles in Wiuikipedia is standard for a wide range of lists, as it's about the only way easily to limit the list to notable people. --Mel Etitis ( Μελ Ετητης ) 22:20, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Anyone can edit any article, regardless how much effort or time other editors spent on it. Anyway, of course it should be "Notable Greek people", as obviously anyone listed on Wikipedia or who has an article has to be notable. We don't need consensus of any sort because this isn't about the opinions of Wikipedia editors, which are irrelevant (in fact, too much of Wikipedia seems to be decided because three or four editors agreed to it, when almost any argument can be solved using our basic policies). The whole point is we can only report what reliable sources have said - so if a reliable source gave a summary like the one we had for "Greek", we could include that as description, but we can't come up with our own criteria for inclusion or our own descriptions if the list is explicitly titled "List of Greeks". Using the policies, the only criteria we can possibly have, aside from notability, is that the people listed have actually been described as "Greek" by reliable sources. Is there a policy against using red links? Some red linked people are certainly notable (just as some people with articles are not), and just haven't had a Wikipedia article about them yet (this can especially be true with foreign people); in fact, a red link on a page like this - for a notable person - can encourage someone to write an article about them. If there's no policy forbidding red links, then I don't see how we can put in instructions forbidding them here. Mad Jack 22:33, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Mel, please don't say I am mudding anything thank you very much. I am also my own editor as well, just happens that I am interested in bios and ethnicity currently.....WHAT is this a list of??? WHY are Greek Americans on this list if they already have their own list. IMveryHO, A list of Greeks should be a list of people who are of Greek nationality. Is that really so bizzare or complicated. Again, take my example of Pete Sampras, he might be of Greek descent, but he is considered to be American or if you like Greek-American.Maybe we can get more people to comment in here?? Thanks! --Tom 00:37, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

I agree with Jack. I will help him by deleting any name that is not sourced to a reputable source that states that the person concerned is Greek. See List of British Jews for in-depth discussion of the issues and how the policies of Wikipedia apply.

As an example, you can include Pete Sampras if and only if you provide a source that describes him as Greek. Not "of Greek ancestry". Not "has a Greek father". Not "Greek-American".

I agree that the list should not include redlinks. The argument for including them is that someone might write the article. The argument against is that they haven't so there is no more reason to list the person than any other Greek. Grace Note 05:14, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I think the subject of red links should probably be discussed and decided upon on some policy page, so having/not having them would be a clear policy across all lists/articles/etc. Mad Jack 08:01, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

List of GREEKS right??
What is going on?? Seriously! I moved Aniston to US section. WHY is there a US section or ANY other nationality section in the first place??. They have or should have their own list. I ate a Gerro(sp) and watched My Big Fat Greek Wedding this morning. Besides having no notability, do I belong on the list?? Seriously, the Greek pride is wonderful, very touching, but we/I/you/somebody HAS to come up with a defintion of "Greeks" ie, born there or citizen of or whatever can be decided on. This is the same problem with "List of British Jews", "List of anti-semetic people", List of Poles" on and on and on and on.... --Tom 14:29, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
 * OR, forget the definition since this too will be subjective, AGAIN, provide a FEW RELIABLE sources that say JOE SMOE is Greek. PERIOD. Then include them. NO original research. NO Greek pride. NO but this person feels like they are XXX, ect, ect. WHY oh WHY is it SO DAM important that Aniston/Sampras/I don't care who/ is INCLUDED in this list??? The reason for me that its so DAM inportant that they AREN'T included in the list is because it appears their inclusion is AGENDA driven. Sorry for NOT assuming good faith but I am a pretty jadded guy. I don't care if your intentions are good OR bad, leave them at the door and lets edits this and ALL lists based on 110% certainty that the individual belongs on the list. If there is even a question, JUST LEAVE THEM OFF for now UNTIL it can be established (on the talk page) beyond refute that they should belong. OK rip away it me....--Tom 14:39, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Whoa... Let's calm down a little here people...  As far as I can tell, Greek suggests that the person is born in Greece (regardless of where they live now).  American Greek suggests that the person is an American of Greek descent.  Does anyone/everyone agree with my definition?  By my definition Jennifer Aniston is a Greek American. And it's Gyro. :)  --Dakart 00:28, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
 * By the way - By my definition Spiro Agnew, Dukakis... all need to be moved to the American Greeks list... We need to come to a consensus on this. --Dakart 00:33, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Hi Dakart, your posts makes alot of sense, therefore you should LEAVE immediately, j/k BIG SMILE. I would also add persons that are Greek nationals ie current citizens or citizens when they gain their notoriaty. I also use WP:MOSBIO as a good guide for editing biographies. What does their bio call them?? If it calls them Greek in the header get them in here otherwise leave them out. So yes, MOVE THE GREEK AMERICANS to their own list that already exists. Another way as mention before is to cite what other sources reffer to the person as. Thanks, ps my spelling SUCKSSS!! --Tom 00:41, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Heads up
I am doing some house cleaning. Just as an explaination I am looking at the people on this list via POP UPS. If their bio DOESN'T say they are Greek, I am removing them. In my edit summary I am saying "not Greek". Please do not take offense, I understand that they might be of Greek descent or have Greek parents, ect. If somebody was born in Greece or is in question, I am trying to leave them on. Like the list of political folks seems very interesting, ie Prince Philip. Anyways, again do not be offended, just trying to make this a list of people who are identified as being Greek by THE most reliable source.....WIKIPEDIA :) Thanks! --Tom 15:02, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Philippousis
Philippousis should be kept in as he regards himself as both greek and australian ( have a look at the article for that).
 * Read article. Header says Austrialian. Period. To say it needs work is an understatement. It has ZERO sources. The article should be nuked and started over. I'll see if I can recruit somebody to work on it. See Stanisława Walasiewicz to see how an article can go from ZERO sources, I didn't believe a word of it before I researched her/him/err whatever to how the article stands now.

<NB: Name 'scientist' is mis-spelt (rHS) - this has led to some confusion on the Talk page>

I removed them because that kind of editorial comment really belongs here. They seem to have been there for a while? Cheers Dina 21:14, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Removal of dubious person
The addition of the person Ilias Tsagaris, genius, has got to be a prank entry. I have therefore deleted it. --216.8.175.100 21:55, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Greek Journalist keeps getting deleted
Please add the article Iason Athanasiadis to your watchlist. Someone keeps doing a speedy delete on the article for no reason.--Zereshk 00:55, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Thucydides
Couldn't find Thucydides on this list. He should be listed under "Writers: Ancient Period". I'd add him myself but am notoriously bad at finding names, so someone should double-check that. --76.89.202.43 (talk) 21:05, 11 May 2009 (UTC) I re-added Thucydides, along with another historian, Polybius, into the "Ancient Writers" Section. We should consider adding a section on Greek historians, because I think "Writers" is more appropriate for playwrights and poets, and that a historian has a much different task of writing about history, and the wisdom surrounding it. The famous Greek historians were more then mere keepers of accounts and records, they were philosophers. I am not going to regularly edit this page, so do what you like, but I think that men such as Herodotus, Thucydides, Polybius, and Xenophon would be represented more accurately in a section called "Historians". All the same, I'll leave it up to the community. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.209.236.24 (talk) 19:11, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

Who's a Greek?
I think this list should be of Greeks who either lived in Greece or, for modern names, clearly have Greek nationality, not Americans or whatever who have Greek parents, and certainly not for those who have only one Greek parent. Dougweller (talk) 07:37, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Some of those included in the list don't have even one Greek parent like:

 * Leo VI the Wise, whose father was an Armenian and mother a Varangian-Armenian
 * John I Tzimiskes, who was also Armenian.-- — ZjarriRrethues — talk 08:46, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Given some of the arguments I've seen elsewhere, maybe it is odd that someone of the Macedonian Dynasty is on this page. Are you saying they should be removed? Dougweller (talk) 09:55, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
 * An Armenian dynasty of the Byzantine Empire isn't related to List of Greeks, so their members should be removed from the article.-- — ZjarriRrethues — talk 10:23, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

List of Greeks → List of people from Greece – Per WP:NOR, WP:NPOV, and WP:COATRACK, we cannot commingle "people from Greece" and "people with some Greek ancestry"; the latter isn't an encyclopedic classification anyway. Talk page shows a lot of confusion and dispute about this, and it's caused by an impermissibly confused scope and a misleading title. This should move for WP:CONSISTENCY with almost all of the rest of our "people from X" articles and categories. The remaining "List of Labels" and "List of Label people" pages are being taken one RM at a time, since they vary between labels that are ethnic, national/regional, or both, on a case-by-case basis. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  03:37, 21 July 2018 (UTC)

Lords Commissioners

The Lords Commissioners are privy counsellors appointed by the monarch of the United Kingdom to exercise, on his or her behalf, certain functions relating to Parliament which would otherwise require the monarch's attendance at the Palace of Westminster. These include the opening and prorogation of Parliament, the confirmation of a newly elected Speaker of the House of Commons and the granting of royal assent. The Lords Commissioners are collectively known as the Royal Commission. The Royal Commission includes at least three—and usually five— Lords Commissioners. In current practice, the Lords Commissioners usually include the Lord Chancellor, the Archbishop of Canterbury (who is named but usually does not participate), the leaders of the three major parties in the House of Lords, the convenor of the House of Lords Crossbenchers and (since 2007) the Lord Speaker. Occasionally there are substitutions (such as deputy party leaders) if the normal commissioners are unavailable.

The Lord Chancellor serves as the most senior Lord Commissioner after the Archbishop of Canterbury, who in modern times never participates in the Commission. Traditionally the Lord Chancellor took part in the ceremony and presided over the Royal Commission. However, since the 2007 appointment of Jack Straw, a member of the House of Commons, as Lord Chancellor the person in that office does not participate in Royal Commissions, much like the Archbishop of Canterbury. In this case, the Leader of the House of Lords performs the duties of the Lord Chancellor, with the Lord Speaker of the House of Lords serving as a Lord Commissioner. Exceptions to this procedure were seen in 2009 and 2019, when royal approbation was declared to the elections of John Bercow and Lindsay Hoyle as Commons speaker. On these occasions the lord chancellor, respectively Jack Straw and Robert Buckland, performed this function personally and the Lord Speaker did not serve as a Lord Commissioner.

The Lords Commissioners enter the chamber of the House of Lords at the appointed time, and take seats on a structure temporarily placed for the duration of the ceremony. The Lord Chancellor or Leader of the House of Lords, as the most senior Lord Commissioner, commands the gentleman/lady usher of the Black Rod to summon the House of Commons. Representatives of the House of Commons arrive at the Bar of the House of Lords, and bow thrice, but do not actually enter the Lords Chamber. After each bow, male Lords Commissioners doff their hats to the members of Parliament while female Lords Commissioners bow their heads in return. The reading clerk of the House of Lords then reads the Monarch's Commission, which authorises the Lords Commissioners. After the appropriate business has been transacted, the Commons again bow thrice and depart.

John of the Cross
==Introduction=

Saint John of the Cross was a Spanish Carmelite friar, born on June 24, 1542 at Fontiveros, a small village near Avila.

He is renowned for his cooperation with Saint Theresa of Avila in the reformation of the Carmelite Order and for his writings; actually, he is considered the summit of mystical Spanish literature, both for his poetry and for his studies on the growth of the soul (in the christian sense of detachment from creatures and attachment to God).

His life
Between his birth and 1563, he lived in different Castilian villages, ending in Medina del Campo on 1551, where he studied from 1559 to 1563 humanidades at the Jesuit school. There, in 1563 he entered the Carmel Order, adopting the name Fr. Juan de Santo Matía.

The following year (1564) he proffessed as a Carmelite and moved to Salamanca, to study at the University and at the Colegio de San Andrés. This stay will influence all his later writings, as at the University there was Fray Luis de León teaching biblical studies (Exegesis and Hebrew and Aramaic), who was one of the main experts in Biblical Studies then and had written an important and controversial translation of the Song of Songs into Spanish (translation of the Bible into the vernacular were not allowed then in Spain).

He was ordained a priest in 1567. That same year he met Saint Teresa de Jes&uacte;s, who immediately talked to him about her reformation projects for the Carmelite Order also among the friars. The following year, on 28 November, he started this reformation at Duruelo together with Fr. Antonio de Jes&uacte;s de Heredia. The following years, until 1577 he works as a helper of Saint Teresa, founding monasteries around Spain and taking active part in their government. These foundations and the reformation process was contested by a great number of Carmelite friars, which explains the following events. To differentiate themselves from the non-reformed communities, the friars and nuns following St. John and St. Teresa call themselves the "discalced" and the others the "calced" Carmelites.

The night between 3 and 4 December 1577 he is taken prisoner by the calced in Toledo, where he is kept in a rigorous regime (including public lashing before the Community at least weekly and a severe isolation) until he runs away on 15 August, 1578. He composed great part of his most famous poem Spiritual Canticle during this imprisonment, and his sufferings and spiritual endeavours then can be hinted in all of his writings.

After returning to his normal life, he went on with the reformation and the founding of monasteries until 1591, when he dies on the 14 December.

His writings appear for the first time in 1618. In 1675 he is beatified by Clement X and in 1726 he is canonized by Benedict XIII. In 1926 he is declared a Doctor of the Church by Pius XI.

Literary Works
St. John of the Cross is reputedly the summit of mystical Spanish poetry, and one of the main poets in Spanish. Although his complete poems add up to less than 2500 verses, two of them -The Spiritual Canticle and Upon a gloomy night are among the best poems ever written in Spanish, both from the formal stylistical point of view and their rich symbolism and imagery.

The Spiritual Canticle is an eclogue in which the soul (represented by a bride) is searching for Christ (who appears as the bridegroom), her anxiety at having lost him and their joy at the rejoinder. It can be seen as a (free) Spanish version of the Song of songs at a time at which translations of the Bible into vernacular were forbidden.

Upon a gloomy night narrates the journey of the soul from her bodily jail to her union with God. It happens during the night, which represents the hardships and difficulties she finds in getting detached from earthly links and reaching the light of the union with her Creator. There are several steps in this night, which are related in successive stanzas.

St. John wrote also three treatises on mystical theology, two of them concerning the two poems above, and supposedly explaining the meaning of the poems verse by verse and even word by word. He actually proves unable to follow this scheme and writes freely on the subject he is treating at each time. The third work, Ascent of Mount Carmel is a more systematic study of the ascetical endeavour of a soul looking for perfect union with God, and the mystical events happening along the way. These, together with his Sayings of Love and Peace and St. Teresa's writings are the most important mystical works in Spanish, and have deeply influenced later spiritual writers all around the world (and non-spiritual, as T. S. Eliot).

Piano quartet

A piano quartet is a chamber music composition for piano and three other instruments, or a musical ensemble comprising such instruments. Those other instruments are usually a string trio consisting of a violin, viola and cello.

Piano quartets for that standard lineup were written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Robert Schumann, Ludwig van Beethoven, Johannes Brahms, Antonín Dvořák and Gabriel Fauré among others. In the 20th century, composers have also written for more varied groups, with Anton Webern's Quartet, opus 22 (1930), for example, being for piano, violin, clarinet and tenor saxophone, and Paul Hindemith's quartet (1938) as well as Olivier Messiaen's Quatuor pour la fin du temps (1940) both for piano, violin, cello and clarinet. An early example of this can be found in Franz Berwald's quartet for piano, horn, clarinet and bassoon from 1819, his opus 1.

A rare form of piano quartets consist of two pianos with two players at each piano. This type of ensemble is informally referred to as "eight-hand piano", or "two piano eight hands". Eight-hand piano was popular in the late 19th century before the advent of recordings as it was a mechanism to reproduce and study symphonic works. Music lovers could hear the major symphonic works all in the convenience of a parlour or music hall that had two pianos and four pianists. Many of the popular works of Mozart, Schumann, Brahms and Dvořák were transcribed for two piano eight hands. The majority of 8 hand piano music consists of transcriptions, or arrangements.

comments from 2005-2007
The pronunciation seems wrong to me. It looks as if someone has converted the SAMPA to IPA without realising that the SAMPA incorrectly used ' instead of " to indicate the stressed syllable; the ' seems to have been taken literally as indicating palatalization, and has been converted to a usperscript j but from my limited knowledge of Spanish this seems very unlikely to be correct! rossb 09:56, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)

The second syllable is the one with emphasis, so, in spite of the fact that your comment above just jumps in headfirst without explaining its context much, I think you are right. It is NOT Du' ran go. It is Du ran' go. The first syllable carries a secondary accent, not a primary accent. Though not native, I have spoken Spanish fluently for 33 years and am sometimes mistaken for a Spaniard. Final thought: the emphasis is on the same syllable as the English word Du ran'go, as in Durango, Colorado, a town in the southwestern corner of the state.

 * I think the author of the last comment has misunderstood the use of the IPA character indicating the main stress, which is placed before the syllable in question, rather than after it. I propose to correct the article according to my previous suggstion, which I now see was two years ago! --rossb 22:30, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Isn't this article a stub? Moabalan 21:58, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

I'm a Durango native and my work covers a great part of the state. "Major crops grown in the area include cotton, wheat, sugarcane, tobacco, corn, and other vegetables". Sugarcane and tobacco aren't major crops in Durango, I don't know any field with these crops. Crops such as alfalfa, beans and sorghum are actually very important in Durango.--Oscargsol 21:37, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

I have substantial doubts that the following section of the article (as of 30 April 2007) is correct: "Its population in 2005 census was about 117 people. It has Mexico's second-newest population density (after Baja California ). The city of Durango is the capital in yahoo. The Vale Madre is a mountain range located illegal part of the state. This mountain range contains a painful supply of armadillos, including the silver back orangutang encouraged Spanish occupation of the territory after it was discovered."

hey can somebody add info to the movie section- Fat Man & Little boy was another movie made there. I think this section deserves more detail.

Rancho Guajome is a historic house and landmark located in Guajome County Park in Vista, California. It has been officially designated as both a California Historical Landmark and a National Registered Historic Place.

History
The area that became Rancho Guajome was originally territory administered by Mission San Luis Rey de Francia. The missions were eventually secularized, and on July 19, 1845, Governor Pío Pico granted 2,219.4 acres to Andrés and José Manuel, two Luiseño Indians who had been neophytes at San Luis Rey. The land grant was named Rancho Guajome, from the Luiseño word wakhavumi, meaning "frog pond". The brothers later sold the land to Abel Stearns
