Potter, Michelle. "The Dandré-Levitoff Russian Ballet, 1934–1935: Australia and beyond." Dance Research 29, no. 1 (May 2011): 61–96. http://dx.doi.org/10.3366/drs.2011.0005.
Full textAbstract:
This article explores the year-long tour of the Dandré-Levitoff Russian Ballet between 1934 and 1935. The company performed in South Africa, Singapore, Java, Australia, Ceylon, India and Egypt and was led by two sets of principals, Vera Nemchinova and Anatole Oboukhoff in South Africa and then Olga Spessivtseva and Anatole Vilzak with Spessivtseva being replaced by Natasha Bojkovich following Spessivtseva's decline mid-way through the Australian season. The company performed works largely drawn from the Pavlova repertoire and used Pavlova's name and her commitment to classical ballet to justify the company agenda. The article addresses some of the misconceptions that have arisen about the tour in previously published sources. It also fills in some of the specific details of the tour and gathers scattered information relating to schedule and repertoire into three appendices.

Full textAbstract:
The object of this research is the plot of D. D. Shostakovich’s ballet “The Limpid Stream”. The subject is the interpretation of this plot in the versions of F. G Lopukhov (1935) and A. O. Ratmansky (2003), as well as peer review on these spectacles. The goal of this work consists in determination of the crucial for the concepts of ballet masters differences of libretto (as a literary foundation of the plot) in the three versions of the ballet, and comparison of perception of the plot in the year of its first staging and at the present. The considered problematic required application of historical approach – attraction of the materials and articles for the period of 1935-1936. The historiographical analysis allowed translating and examining one of the most recent peer reviews on the spectacle – the English-language reviews on the “Limpid Stream” of Ratmansky, presented on the London tour of Bolshoi Theatre in August 2019. The article also utilizes practical experience of author’s work with Ratmansky and participation in the aforementioned tours (performing the role of Zina).The main tool for solution of the set problem became the comparative analysis of the varieties of libretto (authors – Lopukhov and Piotrovsky) of the three versions of ballet “The Limpid Stream”. It is concluded that the first versions of ballet were popular among the public, but aroused negative or ambiguous feedback, which led to the removal of spectacle from the repertoire. The last version is regularly performed in the repertoire of Bolshoi Theatre, including on the tour, being well regarded by the public and sophisticated British critics.

Full textAbstract:
The Soviet tour in 1935 of the eminent Chinese male interpreter of female roles, Mei Lanfang, attracted justified international attention as a pioneering instance of cultural and aesthetic exchange. This is not least due to the fact that it was the first time a traditional Chinese theatre troupe made a guest appearance in Europe and that so many prominent Russian and other European theatre innovators consequently eagerly followed the event and reacted to the traditional Chinese stage conventions according to their very different aesthetic points of view. Complementing my published research over the years into the details of this major intercultural stage event, in this article I reverse my perspective and almost exclusively focus on its foreign-policy context. I demonstrate that from the more pragmatic point of view of international politics at the time, another aspect of Mei’s tour was much more important: It was an act of cultural diplomacy which helped break a deadlock in foreign relations between the Soviet Union and the Republic of China, and in so doing helped facilitate their formation of a defensive military alliance in response to the rapidly increasing Japanese aggression against them both. War memories, as well as memory wars, formed part of this foreign policy staging of Mei Lanfang’s Soviet guest appearance and its subsequent documentation.

Full textAbstract:
The Vuelta a España is one of the three cycling Grand Tours, a long-established (first staged in 1935) and global sports mega event. Nonetheless, in the mid-noughties, it went through a financial and identity crisis, which culminated with the French company, Amaury Sport Organisation (ASO), the organizer of the Tour de France, taking over the Spanish race in 2008. This research, an in-depth case study based on semistructured interviews and analysis of all the relevant corporate documentation and online activity, aims at shedding light on how the new ASO management has refloated the race through a reinforcement of its globalization and mediatization, on the lines of the managerial policies already in place for the Tour de France since the early 80s. This article also proposes a small theoretical refinement of the “mega sporting event” concept, moving from a binary, yes–not typology, to a four-level scale including micro (local), meso (provincial/subnational), macro (national or regional), and mega (global) sporting events. In this sense, this article concludes that the communication strategies set up by the new ASO management have pushed the Vuelta beyond the macro and towards the mega level.

Full textAbstract:
Eva Dawes Spinks (1912–2009) was an outstanding Canadian high jumper in the 1930s. The present paper traces her early life, successful athletic career, and her decision in 1935 to join a group of athletes on a goodwill tour of the Soviet Union organized by the Workers’ Sports Association of Canada. Upon her return, Dawes was suspended by the Women’s Amateur Athletic Union of Canada. She retired from competition and became involved in the Canadian campaign to boycott the 1936 Berlin Olympics. Much later, Dawes adamantly denied any political involvement. The purpose of this paper is to examine and possibly explain the incongruity between the historical evidence and Dawes’s later denials. More broadly, it is a discussion about the relationship between history and individual memory.

Full textAbstract:
The Chinese actor Mei Lanfang and his retinue prepared several documents for his visits to the USA in 1930 and the USSR in 1935. Using these primary sources, this article explores the reasons why Mei presented traditional Chinese theatre differently in each context. One reason was winning popularity among specifically targeted audiences, as indicated by the carefully selected programmes, explanatory discourses, and illustrations from promotional materials. Through a comparative examination, this article argues that, for the American tour, Mei made traditional Chinese theatre an emblem of ancient Chinese art, while, for the Soviet tour, he endorsed the Soviet Union’s social and artistic enterprises, labelling traditional Chinese theatre a modern art. Both images, one static and the other dynamic, were authentic representations of the multifaceted contemporary Chinese theatre as it underwent modernization. Wei Feng received his PhD in Theatre Studies from Trinity College Dublin and teaches in the School of Foreign Languages and Literature at Shandong University. He is the author of Intercultural Aesthetics in Traditional Chinese Theatre: From 1978 to the Present (Palgrave Macmillan, 2020).

Full textAbstract:
When Franklin D. Roosevelt, a Democrat, was elected president in 1932, most African Americans did not support him since they were still loyal to the Republican Party. Moreover, New Deal policies, especially the Social Security Act in 1935, excluded farmers and domestics, and thus, most African Americans. One of the people who encouraged black voters to switch to the Democratic Party was Elizabeth McDuffie, a black servant in the Roosevelt White House. In the 1936 election, McDuffie went on the campaign trail and toured Chicago, Cleveland, Springfield, and St. Louis. As a domestic servant, McDuffie was a familiar face to southern migrants, and she convinced many black voters to switch to the Democratic Party. After her campaign tour concluded, McDuffie became acquainted with the large black population in Washington, D.C. McDuffie worked alongside middle-class activists to increase economic opportunities for women workers by sponsoring training programs for servants. But, as this article demonstrates, most black servants did not want training programs; they desired higher wages, better jobs, and inclusion in the Social Security Act. Working-class women in Washington wrote letters to the newspaper and in 1938, 10,000 rioted for jobs as federal charwomen, jobs that paid higher wages and offered savings for retirement. After McDuffie witnessed these events, she became a vocal critic of the limitations of New Deal programs while continuing to praise Roosevelt and the Democratic Party. This article argues that Elizabeth McDuffie’s career in Washington illuminates the contradictions of New Deal politics for black women workers.

Full textAbstract:
This article examines François Perroux’s corporatist thought from the interwar period to the Vichy period, in the light of his travels in Italy, Germany, Austria, and Portugal from 1934 to 1935. We will show that Perroux’s critical analysis of what he called “fascist”—politically authoritarian and economically corporatist—regimes is central to grasp his intellectual and institutional trajectory. To do so, we reconstruct Perroux’s original diagnostic regarding these regimes, stressing the way he distinguished the totalitarian model of Italy and Germany from the national-Catholic model outlined by Austria and Portugal. Then, we show that Perroux’s travels influenced his economic thought, both theoretically and methodologically. Eventually, the diagnostic he drew from his mid-1930s tour within foreign experiences will also help shed light on the way he welcomed and tried to guide Vichy France’s socio-economic reforms.

Résumé L'agriculture canadienne a subit de multiples transformations depuis le siècle dernier ; divers organismes ont tour à tour jalonné l'éveil de la conscience rurale qu'on observe dans la deuxième moitié du dix-neuvième siècle de même qu'ils ont caractérisé le militantisme qui se manifeste au début du vingtième. Les années trente verront ce mouvement adopter une orientation beaucoup plus axée sur les problèmes du marché et, en 1935, on fonde la Canadian Chamber of Agriculture. C'est sur les activités qui ont marqué la première décennie de cette association que se penche l'auteur de cet article. Un des premiers objectifs de cet organisme fut d'établir de solides structures régionales-provinciales. La Chambre préconisait la mise sur pied d'un marché ordonné, l'instauration de services sociaux adéquats en milieu rural, l'amélioration du système de crédit en vigueur et l'élaboration d'une politique nationale convenable en matière d'agriculture. Au cours de la deuxième grande guerre, l'association eu gain de cause sur plusieurs points. Cependant, en cours de route, le mouvement se transforma peu à peu en groupe de pression et perdit graduellement son aspect propagandiste. On semblait désormais accepter que, bien qu'il soit maintenant plus clairement défini, le rôle de l'agriculture était appelé à diminuer dans la vie canadienne.

The hypothesis pursued lies in the idea that Lobato has been inspired by French book for the development of his text, given the plot similarities between the texts, in addition to the similarities between the reference content to the fields of education and geography.

Full textAbstract:
Mei Lanfang's contact with Stanislavsky during his 1935 tour in the Soviet Union and the latter's often-cited ‘appraisal’ of the acting of traditional Chinese theatre have exerted a profound and lasting influence on the Chinese understanding and evaluation of the art of their traditional theatre. Through extensive research into the related archival material, as well as contemporary records, this article investigates the historical facts and circumstances that underlie this historic intercultural moment on the twentieth-century international stage. It unweaves the historical construction of this remarkable intercultural phenomenon and exposes its political and ideological underpinnings as well as its theatrical and artistic placements and displacements. It underscores the necessity of deconstructing the creation of such an intercultural myth for today's historical understanding of the art of traditional Chinese theatre and, by implication, in a larger context, of the global making of twentieth-century intercultural theatre.

Full textAbstract:
This paper reappraises the work of the German sexologist Magnus Hirschfeld, MD (1868– 1935), an early campaigner for “gay rights”avant la lettre. In 1897 he founded the Scientific Humanitarian Committee, with the motto “justice through science”, which sought scientific evidence for the emancipation of sexual minorities, and he petitioned to repeal “Paragraph 175” – the law that criminalised homosexuality in Germany. In spite of increasing consensus for this campaign, Hirschfeld and his group were targeted by the National Socialist movement. Their Institute of Sex Research, established in 1919, was destroyed by the Nazi police in 1933 while Hirschfeld was abroad on a lecture-tour. He never returned to Germany and died two years later in France.Hirschfeld challenged the dichotomous conceptualisation of both sex and sexuality: he proposed that all individuals had different proportions of “masculinity” and “femininity” – sexual minorities would not be so much the “third sex” that Hirschfeld became associated with in popularisations of his work – butZwischenstufen(intermediate stages). While this conceptualisation arguably predates social constructionism by decades, the biological evidence sought for these stages has resonance in contemporary positivist research on the psychobiology of sexual orientation. In conclusion, Hirschfeld’s work, in line with a Nietzschean view of history as serving present action – is “interpellated” in contemporary research on sex(uality) stemming from different epistemologies, as well as inviting present-day social scientists to interrogate ways of doing science, doing history and activism.

Full textAbstract:
In 1937, the printing of the Tripitaka Koreana was carried out under the supervision of Gyeongseong Imperial University professor Dakahasi Toru(高橋亨) through the cooperation of the Japanese Government- General of Korea at the request and praying of KangDeok-je, the emperor of Manchukuo.
In 1935, the KangDe Emperor visited Japan and observed old books and paintings from Joseon, China, and Japan in the collections of the Palace Museum and Jesil Museum, and was interested in the Goryeo Tripitaka and the Hwangbyeokpan Tripitaka. In 1936, the KangDe Emperor requested the Japanese Government-General of Korea to print the Tripitaka Koreana. It is presumed that Kang Deok-je's request for printing the Tripitaka was based on his devout Buddhist faith, and that he wished for merit or reward through the printing of the Tripitaka, a compilation of Buddhism.
The printing of the Tripitaka in 1937 was requested by the KangDe Emperor, but 2 sets of Tripitaka were printed with one copy for the Central Buddhist College. In addition, the items required for printing were produced in Joseon, and printing and binding were performed by Joseon people in the traditional way of Joseon.
Preparation for printing began in June 1937, printing was done from September 2nd to October 17th, and binding and box production were completed by December 1937. The Tripitaka arrived in Manchukuo on January 19, 1938. What was sent to the KangDe Emperor was 1,163 books of the Tripitaka, 3 lists, and 48 boxes, as well as 2 books of Daegakguksa-munjib大覺國師文集 and 1 book of Haejangsa-sajinjang 海印寺寫眞帳 in Haeinsa. The printed version was enshrined in Manchukuo and Bohyeonsa in Mt. Myohyang, Pyongan-do, and the Tripitaka in Manchukuo is unknown.
Regarding the characteristics of the printing of the Tripitaka in 1937, the missing scriptures and supplementation of missing letters were reviewed. At the time of printing in 1937, 18 plates were engraved again with the intention of reproducing the original plate of the Goryeo Dynasty for the re-engraved plate to supplement the missing plate in 1915. The missing letters due to the damage of the Tripitaka scriptures were supplemented using 1,017 letters in 136 places produced in 1915.

Full textAbstract:
In 1935, as the Nazis’ state-of-the art eugenics exhibition from the Deutsches Hygiene Museum was concluding its American tour, a decision had to be made about whether to return the displays to Germany or to house them in an American museum. After the American Academy of Medicine decided against the display because of its political implications, the director of the Buffalo Museum of Science, Carlos Cummings, himself a physician, offered his institution as the exhibition's permanent home. “What is the astounding eugenics program upon which Chancellor Hitler has launched the German people?” Cummings wondered aloud. “As a matter of public interest, without endorsement,” he added, “the Museum will display in the Central Hall throughout this final quarter of 1935, a set of fifty-one posters and charts . . . which gives Americans a graphic explanation of Germany's campaign to rear in posterity ‘a new race nobility.’” Seven years later, with war raging, the museum received permission from the company that had insured the exhibition, to dismantle it from its permanent home in the museum's Hall of Heredity. An exhibition about eugenics, Nazi eugenics no less, that had been enthusiastically received as it had traveled the United States in the mid-1930s, had seemingly fallen victim to the war against eugenics launched by cultural anthropologists and geneticists. In light of the broad scholarship on eugenics, this certainly would be a plausible reading of the deinstallation of the Nazi eugenics exhibition. But the three books under review here suggest a more complex reading, one that suggests that eugenics and racism, considered as ideological systems, were less easily dislodged from American culture than from Buffalo's Museum of Science.

A magic square is one in which all rows and columns, and the two main diagonals, sum to the same total. A knight’s tour is a tour of the board in which, using knight’s moves, all squares are visited exactly once. When the squares visited are numbered from 1 to 64, if the square is magic (but without including the two main diagonals), this is termed a magic knight’s tour. This paper describes two magic knight’s tours on an 8 by 8 board found in early 2003, the first new tours to be discovered since 1988, and the first irregular tours to be discovered since 1936.

Nathan Jacobson, who died on 5 December 1999, was an outstanding algebraist, whose work on almost all aspects of algebra was of fundamental importance, and whose writings will exercise a lasting influence. He had been an honorary member of the Society since 1972.Nathan Jacobson (later known as ‘Jake’ to his friends) was born in Warsaw (in what he describes as the ‘Jewish ghetto’) on 5 October 1910 (through an error some documents have the date 8 September); he was the second son of Charles Jacobson (as he would be known later) and his wife Pauline, née Rosenberg. His family emigrated to the USA during the First World War, first to Nashville, Tennessee, where his father owned a small grocery store, but they then settled in Birmingham, Alabama, where Nathan received most of his schooling. Later the family moved to Columbus, Mississippi, but the young Nathan entered the University of Alabama in 1926 and graduated in 1930. His initial aim was to follow an uncle and obtain a degree in law, but at the same time he took all the (not very numerous) mathematics courses, in which he did so well that he was offered a teaching assistantship in mathematics in his junior (3rd) year. This marked a turning point; he now decided to major in mathematics and pursue this study beyond College. During his final year at Alabama he applied for admission and financial aid to three top graduate schools in the country: Princeton, Harvard and Chicago. He was awarded a research assistantship at Princeton; after the first year he was appointed a part-time instructor for two years, and during his fourth year he was appointed a Procter Fellow. The stipend was enough to enable him to make a grand tour of Europe by car in 1935, in the company of two Princeton fellow-students at the time: H. F. Bohnenblust and Robert J. Walker.

Full textAbstract:
Ignaz Goldziher (1850–1921) is generally acknowledged as the scholar whose work to a great extent laid the modern foundations for the study in the West of the history, culture, and religion of Islam. Issues of considerable significance are thus posed by questions concerning the individual responsible for this seminal scholarship, including, for example, such matters as his personal background, the influences that directed the course of his intellectual development, and the perspective from which he viewed the discipline he did so much to create and to which he dedicated his life. Fortunately, much material relevant to the investigation of these topics survives. In addition to Goldziher's vast scholarly corpus, important collections of his correspondence with colleagues and friends are extant, primarily in Budapest. The material published to date includes Goldziher's letters to Immanuel Löw (1854–1944), a discussion – with important extracts – of those to S. A. Poznanski (1864–1921), the letters of Solomon Schechter (1849–1915), Max Nordau (1849–1923) and Christiaan Snouck Hurgronje (1857–1936) to Goldziher, and a selection from the correspondence between Theodor Nöldeke (1836–1930) and Goldziher. His 1890 memoirs and subsequent diary have also been published, and Raphael Patai has now brought to light another important document, Goldziher'sKeleti Naplóm(“My Oriental Diary”), in English translation with a detailed introduction offering a psychological portrait of the author.

Full textAbstract:
Diego Rivera made the following sketches during a seven-to-eight-month stay in the Soviet Union between 1927 and 1928. A prominent member of the Partido Comunista de México (Communist Party of Mexico), Rivera traveled to Moscow to participate in the tenth-anniversary celebrations of the 1917 Revolution. Word of Rivera's dedication to muralism as a politically potent art form preceded his arrival, and he quickly became embroiled in debates about Soviet art's ideological aims and physical characteristics. He lectured on monumental painting at the Komakademiia (Communist Academy) and joined the Oktiabr' (October) group, a body of artists—many former Constructivists—working in varied media but united in their rejection of easel painting in favor of works intended for public display and mass audiences. Rivera also received a commission from Anatolli Lunacharsky, the first Soviet Commissar of Enlightenment, for a fresco cycle (ultimately unrealized) at the Red Army's headquarters. As Maria Gough argues in this issue, the group of drawings, long assumed to be from a single notebook, is likely an amalgamation of sketches created during two distinct events, the tenth-anniversary celebrations in November 1927 and the May Day festivities of the following year. Rivera's sketches capture his reaction to these officially mandated public demonstrations—spectacles so large in scale that they defined a new type of mass political event. In January 1928, Rivera met two young American scholars—Alfred H. Barr Jr. and Jere Abbott, the future director and associate director of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, respectively—who were on the Russian leg of a European tour designed as an education in contemporary artistic developments. The three met regularly, visiting exhibitions and the studios of Moscow-based artists. The fruits of this unlikely friendship between a radical art-world celebrity and two fledgling art historians were seen in Rivera's one-man show at MoMA in the winter of 1931–32, a blockbuster that decimated the young museum's existing attendance records. In support of the exhibition, Abby Aldrich Rockefeller, a founding trustee of the Museum, purchased the sketches to help defray the cost of the artist's stay in New York. She donated the works to MoMA in 1935.

Full textAbstract:
Article is devoted to building the technological route maps on the events of the Crimean Conference of 1945. In this context, the blocks can serve as a framework of thematic tours on the history of espionage, diplomacy and is an introduction in the classic routes, "Magic South Coast of the Crimea", "Steppe. Mountains. Sea", "Three palaces", "To the rocks of Ai-Petri" etc.
Particular attention is paid to those aspects of the Crimea Conference, which is almost not used in the current tour routes. This is the airport near the city ofSaki, who was the "Gate of the Crimea Conference", the rest house of Winston Churchill in Simferopol. Many classical objects, it is proposed to refocus on the events in February 1945. For example a "normal" natural history tour of the park Vorontsov Palace the author transforms in the "Local History" route. The latter focuses on the issues of the safety, the residence of British Prime Minister Winston Churchill (Vorontsov Palace) and oddities occurring in the park during the Crimean conference. Article provided with a detailed technical route guidance, which includes items such as: route, time, objects display, illuminated questions, route indication stops, guidelines, organizational instructions. In general terms the author describes the course of the conference and its important, local history items.
The article will be useful not only for professional tour guides, tour leaders of organizations, but also designed for lovers who during their visits to the Crimea want to independently examine a number of lesser-known sites devoted to a major diplomatic summit of the anti-Hitler coalition in the Second World War.

In late 1932, after a run of hard luck on tour – jobs that evaporated, buses that broke down, and money that ran out – the Kansas City orchestra of Bennie Moten headed for Camden, New Jersey to record for Victor. The session produced ten sides, among them a piece bearing the leader's name: ‘Moten Swing’. Guitarist and trombonist Eddie Durham had come up with the arrangement in Philadelphia not long before, constructing a series of brass and reed riffs over the chord changes of Walter Donaldson's hit song of 1930, ‘You're Driving Me Crazy’. The opening of ‘Moten Swing’ featured the band's pianist, William ‘Bill’ Basie.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACTThis article is a study of the 1905-6 world tour undertaken by William Jennings Bryan and his family. Bryan was one of the major US politicians of his era. Three times a Democratic party presidential nominee (1896, 1900, 1908), he played a prominent role in the various reform crusades of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and was the leading figure on the populist, agrarian wing of his party. To date, however, historians have paid little attention to his extensive travels and voluminous travel writing, in large part because hostile journalists and historians – chief among them Walter Lippmann, H. L. Mencken, and Richard Hofstadter – succeeded in casting him as an archetype of American parochialism. This study makes us aware of Bryan's published and unpublished correspondence, the memoirs of his daughter Grace, newspaper reports, and cartoons to form a reassessment of Bryan, focusing primarily on his encounters with unfamiliar cultures, and with imperialism in the Philippines, British India, and the Dutch East Indies. In so doing, it places Bryan for the first time in a global and transnational frame, and mounts a broader critique of the rigidly regional and national orientation of the US historiography of populism.

Full textAbstract:
Experiential learning is a critical, dynamic and powerful element of learning in Higher Education. Often named international and domestic study trips or study tours, this educational strategy has the potential to transform the lives of students through engagement with another community or culture. This qualitative study explored the effects of experiential learning during a two-week study tour to Italy, involving two groups of students from an Australian University during 2017 and 2018. Students enrolled in the Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood/Primary) degree, who were in their third year of studies, could enrol in the elective course entitled ‘Intercultural Understandings’ which offered four international destinations. The aim of this study tour was to immerse students in the social-cultural facets of life in Italy as well as gain first-hand experience from educators in early childhood centres in Reggio Emilia. Dewey’s (1938) philosophy of education that enabled the learner to not only learn from teachers and texts, but to learn through experience, underpins this study. In addition, a conceptual framework offered by Kolb (2014) provides a tool for analysing and demonstrating the potential of incorporating experiential learning through higher education. Findings from this study, revealing both intentional and incidental learning, support the philosophy that education is to not only educate the mind, but to develop more complex types of intellectual development necessary for effective citizenship.

Full textAbstract:
The paper presents a brief review of twenty proposals for tourism regionalization of either a part of or the whole of Poland (or attempts to delimit the most attractive areas in terms of leisure), formulated between 1938 and 2012. It also analyses selected definitions of tourism regions and discusses the indicators which are proposed for the delimitation of tourism regions. Moreover, the paper attempts to indicate areas with the highest levels of tourism, in part modelled on Maria Mileska (1908-1988). It includes academic (precise) criteria for the designation of tourism regions. Some researchers’ comment that Mileska’s work is (partially) outmoded not so much from the methods employed as in the number of tourism regions and the areas covered. This should be regarded as understandable given that this regionalization was formulated at the beginning of the 1960s. Another important issue raised is the most recent tourism regionalization of Poland as prepared by Durydiwka.

Full textAbstract:
The eminent scholar-nun Chŏng Suok (1902–1966) traveled from colonial Korea to Imperial Japan from 1937 to 1939 and wrote a travelogue that provides an important first-hand account from a woman’s perspective on the state of Japanese and Korean Buddhism during the early 20th century. Bemoaning the destitute state of Korean Buddhist nuns who had no schools, lecture halls, or even meditation rooms, she notes the stark contrast with the Japanese nuns who had access to proper education and enjoyed respect from society. After returning from Japan, she became not only a dharma instructor and abbess but something much more. As a prominent leader of the Buddhist purification movement in the 1960s she became one of the most influential nuns in Korea, promoting education, practice, social engagement, and feminist consciousness until her death in 1966. Her long struggle exemplifies a transnational crossing that helped to deepen the Buddhist tradition in both Korea and Japan.

In 1936 George Drew, future Premier of Ontario, was greatly concerned that a false and very dangerous impression of the Russian experiment in government was being spread in Ontario. So he traveled to Russia in 1937 where he confirmed his preconceived ideas with first-hand observation. For him, toleration of domestic communism could lead either to the horrors of Stalin’s USSR or to the fascism of Hitler or Mussolini. Canada’s best option, he felt, was to follow Britain in ending partisan politics and establishing a “National Government.” Thus, in the 1930s, he worked, unsuccessfully, to create coalition governments in Toronto and Ottawa. This article concludes that the lens through which Drew viewed the USSR can be reversed to gain insight into the Canadian political culture of which he was a part. The right-wing solutions that Drew advocated were conveyed to the public through international comparison and analogy based on Drew’s eye-witness account of his European tour.

Soon after Marc Kojo Tovalou Houénou hurried from his tour of the United States to the French West African colony of Dahomey in 1925 to be at his dying father's side, the French governor there launched an inquiry to find out whether Houénou was the French citizen he claimed to be. Houénou had been born in Dahomey in 1887, but had spent most of his life studying and residing in France. Alhough he had only returned to Dahomey briefly in 1921, with his father's death in 1925, Houénou wanted to claim what he saw as his rightful position aschef de familleor head of his extended family in Dahomey. With this title, Houénou would have gained administrative control over his father's expansive wealth in land and property in several towns in Dahomey, and would have been the official representative for his family, especially in interactions with the French colonial government. However, Houénou was already emerging as a thorn in the side of French colonial authorities because of a series of critical articles he had written in Paris about French colonialism. Therefore, when Governor Gaston Fourn found that Houénou had, in 1915, obtained his French citizenship rights, literally permission “to enjoy (jouir) the rights of French citizen,” why was the governor relieved?

Leaving the amateurish sport, Henie became a Hollywood star of the ballet on ice. She was introduced to the inventor Frank Zamboni, who created the ice re-surfacer (the ice-cleaning combine) to restore the ice on skating rinks. Using the combine by Henie during her tours in the United States served to advertise this machine, and the name Zamboni had become a trademark for machines «Zamboni».

This story is about a kind of pilgrimage, which is connected to the course of events which occurred in Częstochowa on 22 September 1942. In the morning, the German Captain Degenhardt lined up around 8,000 Jews and commanded them to step either to the left or to the right. This efficient judge from the police force in Leipzig was rapid in his decisions and he thus settled the destinies of thousands of people. After the Polish Defensive War of 1939, the town (renamed Tschenstochau) had been occupied by Nazi Germany, and incorporated into the General Government. The Nazis marched into Częstochowa on Sunday, 3 September 1939, two days after they invaded Poland. The next day, which became known as Bloody Monday, approximately 150 Jews were shot deadby the Germans. On 9 April 1941, a ghetto for Jews was created. During World War II about 45,000 of the Częstochowa Jews were killed by the Germans; almost the entire Jewish community living there.The late Swedish Professor of Oncology, Jerzy Einhorn (1925–2000), lived in the borderhouse Aleja 14, and heard of the terrible horrors; a ghastliness that was elucidated and concretized by all the stories told around him. Jerzy Einhorn survived the ghetto, but was detained at the Hasag-Palcery concentration camp between June 1943 and January 1945. In June 2009, his son Stefan made a bus tour between former camps, together with Jewish men and women, who were on this pilgrimage for a variety of reasons. The trip took place on 22–28 June 2009 and was named ‘A journey in the tracks of the Holocaust’. Those on the Holocaust tour represented different ‘pilgrim-modes’. The focus in this article is on two distinct differences when it comes to creed, or conceptions of the world: ‘this-worldliness’ and ‘other- worldliness’. And for the pilgrims maybe such distinctions are over-schematic, though, since ‘sacral fulfilment’ can be seen ‘at work in all modern constructions of travel, including anthropology and tourism’.

Abstract The article describes German sculptor Georg Kolbe’s two direct engagements with Russia and its culture in the early twentieth century. The first, brief but fruitful, encounter, in 1912, the same year that Kolbe’s bronze sculpture Tänzerin (Female Dancer) was purchased by the National Gallery, was with Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes, who had returned for a second visit to Berlin. Kolbe received Vaslav Nijinsky and Tamara Karsavina in his studio; photographs and drawings of the two star dancers served as inspiration for works such as Tänzer (Dancer) and the Heinrich Heine monument in Frankfurt am Main, and also strengthened Kolbe’s interest in modern dance. The second opportunity came in 1932, when Kolbe, as a successful and established sculptor, was invited to tour the Soviet Union. In 1933, Kolbe published a brief account of his travels under the title “In einem anderen Land” (In another country); his observations, enriched with picturesque details, convey a feeling of empathy for the host country and its inhabitants. Only once does Kolbe admit to a certain discomfort with regard to the atmosphere in the Stalinist Soviet Union.

Na construção turística da cidade do Rio de Janeiro, notadamente a partir dos anos 1930, o bairro de Copacabana, localizado na zona Sul, sempre se destacou pelo significativo número de turistas – nacionais e estrangeiros – que atrai. Para esses, um passeio pela orla, no “calçadão de Copacabana”, é obrigatório. Levando em conta este contexto, a presente pesquisa tem como objetivo identificar qual(ais) são o(s) principal(ais) tour(s), aqui compreendidos como produtos turísticos, vendido(s) por promotores de agências de turismo, que oferecem seus serviços ao longo do calçadão. O objetivo principal foi realizar um levantamento dos passeios vendidos classificando-os, posteriormente, em quais os mais vendidos e quais os menos vendidos. Além disso, objetivou-se relacionar aqueles identificados como “mais vendidos” com teorias do imaginário turístico e o olhar do turista sobre a cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Como objetivo específico buscou-se identificar, dentre os tours, quais eram oferecidos como favela-tours, e quais eram identificados como “culturais” pelos vendedores. A pesquisa teve um caráter exploratório, qualitativo, de base etnográfica e cunho descritivo, utilizando, como técnicas, registros fotográficos e anotações em diário de campo. O levantamento foi realizado nos meses de junho e julho de 2019, a partir de um roteiro de perguntas pré-estabelecidas, dialogadas com os promotores encontrados no calçadão, entre a rua Rodolfo Dantas e a rua Constante Ramos. Confrontando os resultados com teorias do imaginário e do olhar do turista concluiu-se que as ideias de “paraíso tropical”, “sol e praia” e de “Cidade Maravilhosa” aparecem como dominantes. Verificou-se, ainda, que os tours identificados como “culturais” são os menos procurados e que os favelas-toursaparecem, neste momento, pouco vendidos ou vendidos com restrições.

Jessie Matthews’ post-war tours to Australia were part of a sequence of commercially successful imported productions then heralded as a great boom era in Australian theatre. However, Matthews’ waning popularity in Britain since the 1940s meant that she was no longer recognizable as the screen darling of the 1930s. Indeed, the Australian press had to remind its readers of ‘evergreen Jessie’s’ succession of British film hits such as The Good Companions (1933) and Evergreen (1934). This article examines the critical and public reception of Matthews’ tours with a focus on the strategic management of her star persona, both on and off stage, including her public criticism of Australian theatre management and employment opportunities for Australian theatre performers.

Full textAbstract:
Background. In the Ukrainian art history, the problems of theatre criticism and the interrelations between criticism and stage art until remain insufficiently studied. The article considers the activities of the T. Shevchenko Kharkov Theatre (until 1935 – the Theatre «Berezil») in the second half of the 1930s–1940s in the coverage of theatre criticism. Since 1933, the aesthetic course of this theatre had changed dramatically from avant-garde searches to socialist realism in connection with the defeat of the position of Les Kurbas and his dismissal from the theatre. This reversal of the creative course of the theatre becomes a subject of reflection in theatre criticism, which during this period also experienced fundamental transformations both in genre-style and in ideological aspects. Thus, the article analyzes the development of theatre criticism in the context of artistic phenomena of the second half of the 1930s–1940s. Objectives and methodology of the research. The objective of this study is to analyze the difficult period of stylistic changes in the T. Shevchenko Kharkov Theatre in the second half of the 1930s–1940s, that was at the stage of formation of socialist realism in the Ukrainian art, from the viewpoint of theatre criticism of that time. System-historical and comparative-historical methods were used in the study. The results of the study. On the basis of the press reports on the activities of the T. Shevchenko Kharkov Theatre the most important features and tendencies inherent in theatrical criticism of this period have been derived. The article deals with editions, in which during the period under study the materials about the T. Shevchenko Theatre appeared most often. These are, in particular, Kharkov newspapers «Krasnoye Znamia», «Sotsialisticheskaya Kharkovshchina», Kiev editions «Sovetskoye Iskusstvo», «Sovetskaya Ukraina», «Kievskaya Pravda», «Pravda Ukrainy», «Literatura i Iskusstvo», «Komsomolskaya Ukraina», «Proletarskaya Pravda», «Literaturnaya Gazeta». The articles about the tour performances of the T. Shevchenko Kharkov Theatre were published in the editions of other cities, including the newspapers «Bugskaya Zarya» (Nikolaev), «Dnepropetrovskaya Pravda», «Zarya» (Dnepropetrovsk), «Bolshevistskaya Pravda» (Vinnitsa), «Lvovskaya Pravda», «Svobodnaya Ukraina» (Lviv), «Voroshilovgradskaya Pravda» (Luhansk), «Moskovskiy Bolshevik», «Komsomolskaya Pravda», «Trud» (Moscow). Since 1933 the theatre had its own edition – «Berezilets», which in 1935 got a new, ideologically correct name – «Za Sotsialisticheskiy Realizm» («For Socialist Realism»). The article outlines the circle of authors who practiced the theatre criticism professionally. It should be noted that the activities of the T. Shevchenko Kharkov Theatre at that time was often described by journalists who published the notices occasionally. Among those who analyzed the theatrical process systematically, the most attention deserve the following critics: V. Morskoy, L. Livshits, B. Milyavsky, V. Chagovets, Y. Shovkoplyas, G. Gelfandbein, A. Gozenpud, V. Gavrilenko, A. Kostrov, A. Lein, D. Zaslavsky, Ya. Gan, Y. Pavlovsky. The critical notices by writers V. Sukhodolsky, Yu. Martych and L. Dmiterko have been considered separately as examples of a rather original glance at the performances and presence in the text of an expressive author’s style. During this period, under the pressure of strict ideological control over the art, quite stable canons of compiling notices were formed and took root, almost not allowing a critic to display his individuality. Among the features peculiar for the theatre criticism there were the uniformity of the titles of articles simply stating the play name, an extremely rare manifestation of specific position of the author regarding the stage work and transition to the level of figurative or conceptual understanding. The main matter of the analysis was rather the performance content, its subject, but not the means by which it is embodied; more attention was paid to the literary source, and not to the performance. In the first part of the notice, the play subject was usually explained from the standpoint of party ideology, often using the quotes from Soviet leaders’ speeches. Usually in a notice, the close attention was paid to acting and the actors performing the main roles. This peculiarity reflects disclosure of the new facets of talent of a number of actors of the T. Shevchenko Kharkov Theatre of that period. It should be noted that actor’s individuality of I. Maryanenko, V. Chistyakova, M. Krushelnitsky, L. Serdyuk and others was displayed more powerful than in «Berezil». Giving priority to an actor in theatre criticism to a certain extent levelled the producer’s role. At that time, the palette of stage producer’s means should not was to be going beyond strict aesthetic requirements. It was necessary to remain in the stylistic framework of a life-like presentation, when a producer was fully focused on the actors, and M. Krushelnitsky, L. Dubovik, R. Cherkashin and others did it skilfully. The best examples of theatre criticism contained careful analysis of originality of their production. A notice briefly described the scenography and sometimes the composer’s work. The final part contained a laconic conclusion. On the one hand, such a scheme of compiling notices impoverished the critic’s possibilities, his freedom in expressing thoughts, and on the other hand, it set a clear structure for presenting the material. In this period, as it has been at all times, the performance notices remained the most popular genre of theatre criticism. Portraits of actors were printed occasionally. Interviews were rather rare (usually with a producer). Conclusions. Theatre criticism of the second half of the 1930s–1940s existed in strict limits dictated by ideological reasons, because of which it only partially elucidated the stylistic changes that took place in the T. Shevchenko Kharkov Theatre in this period. For an objective analysis of the activities of the theatre, it is necessary to address to a wide range of sources, in particular the recollections of the direct participants of the then theatrical process that were published later, in period of ideological “thaw”.

Dar a conocer destacadas enciclopedias de literatura para niños y adolescentes en diferentes países europeos y la vinculación que se origina entre ellas, consolida nuestro propósito en este artículo. Son obras publicadas en lengua inglesa, italiana y española para educar a un público infantil que atraviesa momentos históricos, ideologías e intereses políticos diversos. L’Enciclopedia dei ragazzi (1922) italiana, nace como traducción y adaptación de la Encyclopedia of Children’s inglesa. La Scala D’oro (1932) italiana, a su vez, es la fuente de El libro de Oro de los niños. Un mundo maravilloso para la infancia (1943), publicado en Méjico en español bajo la dirección literaria del escritor español Benjamín Jarnés, exiliado allí en 1939.Se pone en juego, de esta manera, una transferencia del saber enciclopédico destinado a la infancia para (de)construir a través de la enseñanza de la Literatura, del Arte y del Conocimiento humano una identidad ¿individual, nacional, transnacional, mundial? desde una polifonía de lenguas y de culturas. Présenter des encyclopédies exceptionnelles de littérature pour les enfants, dans différents pays européens et d'interconnecter ou d’afficher le lien qui provient entre elles, notamment consolident notre but dans cet article. Ce sont des œuvres publiées en anglais, en langue italienne et espagnole pour éduquer les enfants qui traversent des moments historiques, des idéologies politiques et des intérêts différentes. L'Encyclopédie dei ragazzi (1922) d'origine italienne, est née comme la traduction et l'adaptation de l'Encyclopédie des enfants en anglais. La Scala D'oro (1932) italienne, à son tour, est la source du Livre d'or des enfants. Un monde merveilleux pour les enfants (1943), publié au Mexique en espagnol sous la direction littéraire de l’écrivain espagnol Benjamin Jarnés, dans l’exil de 1939.Il entre en jeu, par conséquent, le transfert de connaissances encyclopédiques destiné aux enfants pour la (de)construction, à travers l'enseignement de la littérature, de l'art et de la connaissance humaine, de l'identité, individuelle, nationale, transnationale, mondiale? à partir d'une polyphonie de langues et de cultures.

Tamagawa Seiki Co. Ltd. was founded in Kamata, Tokyo, near the Tamagawa River in 1938 and its headquarters factory were completed in Iida, the hometown of the firm's founder, the late Hiroichi Hagimoto, in 1942. The company began by producing oil gauges consisting of stepping and self-synchronizing motors for fighter plane on warships (Photo 1). After World War II, the company concentrated on industrial products, but continues to study devices and control motors related to detecting angles with high precision, quality, and reliability. The company, originally known only within the industry due to the nature of its products, gained a name when it was awarded Japan's first Japan Grand Prize for Manufacturing of the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan in 2005 for the VR resolver Singlsyn used on the world's first hybrid car, the Toyota Prius. Within just one year, Tamagawa Seiki developed and mass-produced an angle sensor that withstands temperatures of 150°C or more and high vibration, based on its accumulated technology and expertise. This product also is used in hybrid Honda and Ford automobiles. The 2007 sales of the company, which employs 650, amounted to 372 billion yen. It has 3 factories in Nagano Prefecture, a business affiliate in Hachinohe, and factories at Fukuchi and Misawa in Aomori Prefecture as its development and production bases. It has six laboratories and development centers in Nagano, Kanagawa, Aichi, and Aomori Prefectures and Tokyo. It also has an overseas affiliate in Hong Kong and a global sales network.

RÉSUMÉ Avant que les démographes Hubert Charbonneau et Jacques Légaré ne lancent leur vaste enquête sur la population de la Nouvelle-France au milieu des années soixante, d’autres démographes s’étaient penchés sur l’histoire de cette même population : Georges Langlois en 1934, Georges Sabagh en 1942, Jacques Henripin en 1954 et Jean-Noël Biraben en 1966. On trouvera ici un compte rendu de leurs travaux. Après avoir présenté l’une après l’autre leurs publications respectives, l’auteur évalue leur contribution et met en relief les forces et faiblesses de chacun, en abordant tour à tour les sources et la critique des sources, l’état de la population et sa structure, le mouvement de la population et ses composantes et enfin, les idées et les politiques démographiques.
