They must have agreed that they had no taste for martyrdom — or even Byronic exile. . . . It is clear they both knew, in their heart of hearts, they wanted to express their love for each other in a physical way; yes, even in a sexual way — Love and Duty is eloquent testimony to that. But both of them knew in the prevailing moral climate . . . there seemed to be no possibility of love between males that would not incur hysterical opposition. . . . There is not much doubt, had they wanted to take the sexual path and do so openly, they would only have wanted the kind of sex which they felt about each other.
ellauri052.html on line 935: Ultimately, much of the book revolves around a perceived opposition between “young Saul,” the politically radical, amorously multitasking free spirit who raised him, and “old Saul,” the reactionary, race-baiting friend of authority and Allan Bloom who occupied his father’s body for its final 40 years. Greg had a front-row seat for Bellow’s supposed conversion, after the rise of black power and the Six Day War, to the unfashionable conservatism that remains the unspoken reason his books aren’t read much in America today. He is thus well-placed to describe how that change—dramatically evident in Mr. Sammler’s Planet (1970), the neo-con novel par excellence, but also in Herzog—manifested itself in private.

He was partnered with Jerone Hart for some twenty years until his death. Hart and Boswell are buried together at Grove Street Cemetery, New Haven, Connecticut.
ellauri098.html on line 175: According to Propp, based on his analysis of 100 folktales from the corpus of Alexander Fyodorovich Afanasyev, there were 31 basic structural elements (or 'functions') that typically occurred within Russian fairy tales. He identified these 31 functions as typical of all fairy tales, or wonder tales [skazka] in Russian folklore. These functions occurred in a specific, ascending order (1-31, although not inclusive of all functions within any tale) within each story. This type of structural analysis of folklore is referred to as "syntagmatic". This focus on the events of a story and the order in which they occur is in contrast to another form of analysis, the "paradigmatic" which is more typical of Lévi-Strauss's structuralist theory of mythology. Lévi-Strauss sought to uncover a narrative's underlying pattern, regardless of the linear, superficial syntagm, and his structure is usually rendered as a binary oppositional structure. For paradigmatic analysis, the syntagm, or the linear structural arrangement of narratives is irrelevant to their underlying meaning.

ellauri108.html on line 201: Marcus Garvey, a prominent black nationalist theorist who heavily influenced Rastafari and is regarded as a prophet by many Rastas. The Jamaican activist Marcus Garvey, spent much of his adult life in the US and Britain. Garvey supported the idea of global racial separatism and called for part of the African diaspora to relocate to Africa. His ideas faced opposition from civil rights activists like W. E. B. Du Bois who supported racial integration, and as a mass movement, Garveyism declined in the Great Depression of the 1930s. A rumour later spread that in 1916, Garvey had called on his supporters to "look to Africa" for the crowning of a black king; this quote was never verified. However, in August 1930, Garvey's play, Coronation of an African King, was performed in Kingston. Its plot revolved around the crowning of the fictional Prince Cudjoe of Sudan, although it anticipated the crowning of Haile Selassie later that year. Rastas hold Garvey in great esteem, with many regarding him as a prophet. Garvey knew of Rastafari, but took a largely negative view of the religion; he also became a critic of Haile Selassie, calling him "a great coward" who rules a "country where black men are chained and flogged".
ellauri108.html on line 235: Sub-divisions of Rastafari are often referred to as "houses" or "mansions", in keeping with a passage from the Gospel of John (14:2): as translated in the King James Bible, Jesus states "In my father's house are many mansions". The three most prominent branches are the House of Nyabinghi, the Bobo Ashanti, and the Twelve Tribes of Israel, although other important groups include the Church of Haile Selassie I, Inc., and the Fulfilled Rastafari. By fragmenting into different houses without any single leader, Rastafari became more resilient amid opposition from Jamaica's government during the early decades of the movement.
ellauri119.html on line 446: The term "free love" has been used to describe a social movement that rejects marriage, which is seen as a form of social bondage. The Free Love movement's initial goal was to separate the state from sexual matters such as marriage, birth control, and adultery. It claimed that such issues were the concern of the people involved, and no one else. Many people in the early 19th century believed that marriage was an important aspect of life to "fulfill earthly human happiness." Middle-class Americans wanted the home to be a place of stability in an uncertain world. This mentality created a vision of strongly defined gender roles, which provoked the advancement of the free love movement as a contrast. The term "sex radical" has been used interchangeably with the term "free lover". By whatever name, advocates had two strong beliefs: opposition to the idea of forceful sexual activity in a relationship and advocacy for a woman to use her body in any way that she pleases. These are also beliefs of Feminism. As St. Augustine put it: love God and then do as you please.

L´humour, nul plus que lui n´a pris soin de le définir par opposition à la gaieté triviale ou au sarcasme grimaçant dans les quels se plaît à se reconnaître l´« esprit français ». Il place Molière en tête des « religions modernes ridicules»; Voltaire, c´est « l´antipoète, le roi des badauds, le prince des superficiels, l´antiartiste, le prédicateur des concierges, le père Gigogne des rédacteurs du Siècle ». Le dandy est partagé entre le souci narcissique de ses attitudes et de ses actes («Il doit aspirer à être sublime sans interruption.

(3) They quarreled with Moses and said, "If only we had died when our brothers fell dead before the LORD! (4) Why did you bring the LORD's community into this desert, that we and our livestock should die here? (5) Why did you bring us up out of Egypt to this terrible place? It has no grain or figs, grapevines or pomegranates. And there is no water to drink!" (6) Moses and Aaron went from the assembly to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and fell facedown, and the glory of the LORD appeared to them. (7) The LORD said to Moses, (8) "Take the staff, and you and your brother Aaron gather the assembly together. Speak to that rock before their eyes and it will pour out its water. You will bring water out of the rock for the community so they and their livestock can drink." (9) So Moses took the staff from the LORD's presence, just as he commanded him. (10) He and Aaron gathered the assembly together in front of the rock and Moses said to them, "Listen, you rebels, must we bring you water out of this rock?" (11) Then Moses raised his arm and struck the rock twice with his staff. Water gushed out, and the community and their livestock drank. (12) But the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, "Because you did not trust in me enough to honor me as holy in the sight of the Israelites, you will not bring this community into the land I give them." (13) These were the waters of Meribah, [1] where the Israelites quarreled with the LORD and where he showed himself holy among them.

Traditional branches of Judaism, Islam, Coptic Christianity, the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, and the Eritrean Orthodox Church still advocate male circumcision as a religious obligation.

Socio-economic developments in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth were another important factor in the growth of the Ukrainian Cossacks. During the 16th century, serfdom was imposed because of the favorable conditions for grain sales in Western Europe. This subsequently decreased the locals' land allotments and freedom of movement. In addition, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth government attempted to impose Catholicism, and to Polonize the local Ukrainian population. The basic form of resistance and opposition by the locals and burghers was flight and settlement in the sparsely populated steppe.

ellauri236.html on line 202: In a book like No Orchids one is not, as in the old-style crime story, simply escaping from dull reality into an imaginary world of action. One's escape is essentially into cruelty and sexual perversion. No Orchids is aimed at the power-instinct, which Raffles or the Sherlock Holmes stories are not. At the same time the English attitude towards crime is not so superior to the American as I may have seemed to imply. It too is mixed up with power-worship, and has become more noticeably so in the last twenty years. A writer who is worth examining is Edgar Wallace, especially in such typical books as The Orator and the Mr. J. G. Reeder stories. Wallace was one of the first crime-story writers to break away from the old tradition of the private detective and make his central figure a Scotland Yard official. Sherlock Holmes is an amateur, solving his problems without the help and even, in the earlier stories, against the opposition of the police. Moreover, like Lupin, he is essentially an intellectual, even a scientist. He reasons logically from observed fact, and his intellectuality is constantly contrasted with the routine methods of the police. Wallace objected strongly to this slur, as he considered it, on Scotland Yard, and in several newspaper articles he went out of his way to denounce Holmes by name. His own ideal was the detective-inspector who catches criminals not because he is intellectually brilliant but because he is part of an all-powerful organization. Hence the curious fact that in Wallace's most characteristic stories the ‘clue’ and the ‘deduction’ play no part. The criminal is always defeated by an incredible coincidence, or because in some unexplained manner the police know all about the crime beforehand. The tone of the stories makes it quite clear that Wallace's admiration for the police is pure bully-worship. A Scotland Yard detective is the most powerful kind of being that he can imagine, while the criminal figures in his mind as an outlaw against whom anything is permissible, like the condemned slaves in the Roman arena. His policemen behave much more brutally than British policemen do in real life — they hit people with out provocation, fire revolvers past their ears to terrify them and so on — and some of the stories exhibit a fearful intellectual sadism. (For instance, Wallace likes to arrange things so that the villain is hanged on the same day as the heroine is married.) But it is sadism after the English fashion: that is to say, it is unconscious, there is not overtly any sex in it, and it keeps within the bounds of the law. The British public tolerates a harsh criminal law and gets a kick out of monstrously unfair murder trials: but still that is better, on any account, than tolerating or admiring crime. If one must worship a bully, it is better that he should be a policeman than a gangster. Wallace is still governed to some extent by the concept of ‘not done’. In No Orchids anything is ‘done’ so long as it leads on to power. All the barriers are down, all the motives are out in the open. Chase is a worse symptom than Wallace, to the extent that all-in wrestling is worse than boxing, or Fascism is worse than capitalist democracy.

Hän muodosti Josif Stalinin ja Lev Kamenevin kanssa puoluetta johtaneen troikan, jolla oli ratkaiseva merkitys Lev Trotskin ja vasemmisto-opposition syrjäyttämisessä. Stalin vuorostaan syrjäytti vuosina 1926–1927 sekä Zinovjevin että Kamenevin puoluejohdosta. Stalinin vainojen käynnistyttyä heidät tuomittiin vuonna 1936 oikein näytösoikeudenkäynnissä kuolemaan ja teloitettiin.

Zinovjev luotti johtamansa Leningradin puoluejärjestön tukeen ja arvovaltaansa Kominternin johtajana, mutta Stalin osoittautui vaikeaxi palaxi. Zinovjev erotettiin Leningradin (entisen Pietarin) neuvoston johdosta tammikuussa 1926 ja syrjäytettiin myöhemmin samana vuonna myös Leningradin puoluejärjestön johdosta, johon tuli hänen tilalleen Sergei Kirov.

Kun Sergei Kirov murhattiin joulukuussa 1934, Zinovjevin ja Kamenevin väitettiin olleen ”moraalisesti osallisia” tapahtuneeseen, joten heidät erotettiin jälleen puolueesta ja vangittiin. He tunnustivat syyllisyytensä saadakseen lievemmät tuomiot. Tammikuussa 1935 Zinovjev tuomittiin salaisessa oikeudenkäynnissä kymmenen ja Kamenev viiden vuoden vankeuteen. Samassa yhteydessä yli 600 Zinovjevin entistä leningradilaista tukijaa karkotettiin Siperiaan.

Valtakamppailun käynnistyttyä vuonna 1923 Zinovjev, Kamenev ja puolueen pääsihteeriksi edellisenä vuonna heidän aloitteestaan valittu Stalin muodostivat troikaksi tai triumviraatiksi kutsutun epävirallisen johtoryhmän, jonka päätavoitteena oli estää Lev Trotskin ja tämän ympärille muodostuneen vasemmisto-opposition pääsy valtaan. Trotski ja vasemmisto-oppositio halusivat luopua kapitalismin ja markkinatalouden elementtejä sisältäneestä uudesta talouspolitiikasta eli NEP:stä, kun taas troikan edustama puolueen ”keskusta” kannatti sen jatkamista. Leninin kuoltua tammikuussa 1924 viime kädessä juuri Kamenev esti Stalinille kiusallisen Leninin testamentin julkistamisen pelastaakseen tärkeän liittolaisensa. Stalinin ajaessa lähinnä omaa asiaansa Zinovjev ja Kamenev muodostivat toisilleen loppuun saakka uskollisina pysyneen yhteistyökykyisen kaksikon. Kunnianhimoisen ja vaistoihinsa luottaneen Zinovjevin sekä varovaisen ja järjestelmällisen Kamenevin on sanottu täydentäneen toistensa ominaisuuksia.
ellauri260.html on line 207: Gustav Teichmüller (November 19, 1832 – May 22, 1888) is considered a philosopher of the idealist school and a founder of Russian personalism. His ideas were shaped by his teachers Lotze and J. F. Herbart, who in turn were influenced by G. W. von Leibniz. Some scholars describe Teichmüller's personalism as a version of neo-Leibnizianism. His doctrines have also been referred to as constituting a variant of Christian personalism that is in opposition to both positivism and evolutionism as well as traditional Platonism. Teichmüller's philosophy has influenced Nietzsche and this link has been explored by scholars such as Hermann Nohl, who traced Teichmüller's Die wirkliche und die scheinbare Welt, 1882, as the source of the latter's perspectivism. Teichmüller also influenced the Russian thinkers A. A. Kozlov, I.F. Oze, and E. A. Bobrov.

Stalinin vainojen aikana hänet vangittiin ja tuomittiin vuoden 1937 näytösoikeudenkäynnissä kuudentoista muun johtajan kanssa vankeuteen. Hän kuoli vankeudessa ylä-Uralilla vuonna 1939, vaikka vielä 1950-luvulla hänen väitettiin olevan elossa.

Comprising five towers ranging from 14 to 17 stories above-ground, the project was Jerusalem's first high-rise development. The project encountered opposition from both municipal officials and the public at each stage of its design and construction. The complex includes 10,000 square feet (930 m2) of commercial space and a medical center. The project was financed by the Edith and Isaac Wolfson Trust.

Dzeržinski kuoli sydänkohtaukseen 49-vuotiaana 20. heinäkuuta 1926 Moskovassa heti pidettyään kahden tunnin puheen bolshevikkien keskuskomitealle, jonka aikana hän ilmeisesti melko sairaana tuomitsi väkivaltaisesti Leon Trotski, Grigori Zinovjevin ja Lev Kamenevin johtaman yhdistyneen opposition. Kuultuaan hänen kuolemastaan Josif Stalin ylisti Dzeržinskiä "proletariaatin köyhänä ritarina".
ellauri317.html on line 640: Punainen terrori (venäjäksi: красный террор, romanisoitu: krasnyy terror) Neuvosto - Venäjällä oli poliittisen sorron ja teloitusten kampanja, jonka bolshevikit toteuttivat pääasiassa Chekan, bolshevikkien salaisen poliisin kautta. Se alkoi virallisesti syyskuun alussa 1918 ja kesti vuoteen 1922. Syntyi Vladimir Leninin ja Petrogradin Chekan johtajan Moisei Uritskyn salamurhayritysten jälkeen. Väitetyssä kostossa bolshevikkien julmuuksista, joista jälkimmäinen onnistui, punainen terrori perustui Ranskan vallankumouksen kauhuvallan malliin ja pyrki eliminoimaan poliittisen erimielisyyden, opposition ja kaiken muun bolshevikkivallan uhkan. Laajemmin termiä käytetään yleensä bolshevikkien poliittiseen sortotoimiin sisällissodan aikana (1917–1922), erotettuna valkoisen armeijan (venäläisen ja muun) toteuttamasta valkoisesta terrorista, missä bolshevikkien valtaa vastustaneet venäläiset ryhmät listivät apinan raivolla poliittisia vihollisiaan, mukaan lukien bolshevikit.
ellauri331.html on line 666: Sota.vision (SOTA) on venäläinen riippumaton uutiskanava. SODAn aloitti Grani.ru:n entinen toimittaja Alexandra Ageeva, joka loi oman YouTube-kanavansa kattamaan dramaattisimmat Venäjän opposition toimintaan liittyvät tapahtumat Moskovassa. Näihin kuuluivat mielenosoitukset Aleksei Navalnyn tukemiseksi, Bolotnaja-aukion tapaus ja piketit, joissa tuomittiin Venäjän sekaantuminen Ukrainaan. Sivusto kattaa pääasiassa maan sisäisiä mielenosoituksia. SOTAn suurin painopiste on oppositioagenda sekä pääkaupungissa että sen ulkopuolella. SOTA tekee yhteistyötä myös suuren toimittajajoukon kanssa, joka on sijoitettu maan ulkopuolelle, "esimerkiksi" Georgiaan, Latviaan, Liettuaan, Armeniaan, Kazakstaniin, Puolaan, Ukrainaan ja Yhdysvaltoihin. SOTA oli ainoa media, joka lähetti maailmanlaajuisia mielenosoituksia Aleksei Navalnyn tukemiseksi, ja niitä järjestettiin yli 60 paikassa ympäri maailmaa.

Later, in a 1955 BBC interview, he accused Gandhi of writing in opposition of the caste system in English language papers while writing in support of it in Gujarati language papers. In his writings, Ambedkar also accused Jawaharlal Nehru of being "conscious of the fact that he is a Brahmin".

ellauri367.html on line 206: Vuonna 1922 Rakowski osallistui Genovan konferenssiin, jossa hän auttoi neuvottelemaan Rapapallon sopimuksesta ja Lausannen konferenssista. Neuvostoliiton muodostumisen jälkeen joulukuussa 1922 hän kannatti pitkälti itsenäistä liittotasavaltojen politiikkaa ja vallankumouksen jatkamista Kaakkois-Euroopassa. Trotskin ympärillä olevan " vasemmisto-opposition " jäsenenä Josef Stalin poisti hänet Ukrainasta vuoden 1923 puolivälissä, ja hänen piti neuvotella Neuvostoliiton virallisesta tunnustamisesta Isossa-Britanniassa ja Ranskassa. Ison-Britannian tapauksessa tämä epäonnistui "Zinovievin kirjeen" julkaisemisen ja sitä seuranneen työväenpuolueen hallituksen kaatumisen jälkeen lokakuussa 1924. Sen jälkeen kun Ranska oli tunnustanut Neuvostoliiton, hänestä tuli siellä suurlähettiläs lokakuusta 1925 lokakuuhun 1927. Koska hän oli allekirjoittanut trotskilaisen protokolla-alustan, hänet karkotettiin maasta.
ellauri367.html on line 208: Palattuaan Neuvostoliittoon hän yritti kuukauden ajan järjestää Trotskin johtaman vasemmisto-opposition toimintaa Ukrainassa. Hänet erotettiin muun trotskilaisen opposition mukana NKP:n keskuskomiteasta marraskuussa 1927 ja koko puolueesta joulukuun 1927 puoluekokouksessa. Hänet määrättiin sisäiseen karkotukseen Astrahaniin ja myöhemmin Barnauliin. Rakovski jatkoi yhteydenpitoa Alma-Ataan karkotettuun Trotskiin. Rakovskia alettiin pitää vasemmisto-opposition johtajana Neuvostoliitossa, kun Trotski vuonna 1929 karkotettiin kokonaan maasta. Neuvostoliittoon jääneistä Trotskin vanhoista liittolaisista Rakovski pysyi tälle pisimpään uskollisena. Helmikuussa 1934 hän lopulta taipui tuomitsemaan Trotskin ja sai luvan palata Moskovaan. Seuraavana vuonna hän sai takaisin NKP:n jäsenyyden.

ellauri389.html on line 65: Elia, in contrast to Bridget (qua Mary) speaks for a modern sensibility that is attuned to constant stimulation and that revels in the contemporary industrial and imperial economy of surplus and novelty goods. His teacup is an object of debate because it epitomizes precisely the kind of dangerous indulgence Bridget fears: it is a luxury commodity and, with its fashion-dependent pattern and place in a "set" of companion pieces, it inevitably entails additional purchasing. Elia's dialectical opposition to Bridget thus is underscored by his capacity to "love" one pattern of porcelain, and "if possible, [love another] still more". Indeed, Elia's susceptibility to new-sprung marketing strategies is suggested by his acknowledgment that china jars were "introduced" into his imagination by the recently invented tactics of advertising.
xxx/ellauri075.html on line 305: Klages was a central figure of characterological psychology and the Lebensphilosophie school of thought. Prominent elements of his philosophy include: the opposition between life-affirming Seele and life-denying Geist; reality as the on-going creation and interpretation of sensory images, rather than feelings; a biocentric ethics in response to modern ecological issues and militarism; an affirmation of eroticism in critique of both Christian patriarchy and the notion of the "sexual"; a theory of psychology focused on expression, including handwriting analysis; and a science of character aimed at reconciling the human ego to the divide it effectuates between living beings.
xxx/ellauri075.html on line 307: Central to Klages' thought is a linguistic opposition to logocentrism, a term introduced by Klages to diagnose a fixation on language or words to the detriment of the things to which they refer. (Put that in your pipe and smoke, Benjamin!) His formulation of this concept came to be of significant importance to semiotic studies of Western science and philosophy, namely within Derridean deconstruction. Klages is similarly seen as a buggybear to critical theory, deep ecology, and existential phenomenology. Historically little of his odious literary output has been available in English, being too thick and long-winded to translate.
xxx/ellauri081.html on line 311: His era was later labeled as La Grande Noirceur ("The Great Darkness") by its critics, due to his support of strong Catholic traditions, his support of private property rights vis-a-vis growing labour rights movements, and his strong opposition not only to Communism, but also to secularism, feminism, environmentalism, leftist separatism and other non-conservative and progressive political trends and movements that would influence Quebec politics and society over the following 60 years, starting with the Quiet Revolution of the 1960s under his Liberal successor Jean Lesage.
xxx/ellauri084.html on line 594: Film critic André Bazin (1918-1958) is notable for arguing that realism is the most important function of cinema. His call for objective reality, deep focus, and lack of montage are linked to his belief that the interpretation of a film or scene should be left to the spectator. This placed him in opposition to film theory of the 1920s and 1930s, which emphasized how the cinema could manipulate reality.
xxx/ellauri113.html on line 85: The proposition, nothing comes from nothing, nothing is just nothing, owes its particular importance to its opposition to becoming in general and hence also to the creation of the world out of nothing. Those who zealously hold firm to the proposition, nothing is just nothing, are unaware that in so doing they are subscribing to the abstract pantheism of the Eleatics and essentially also to that of Spinoza. The philosophical view that accepts as principle that being is only being, nothing only nothing, deserves the name of 'system of identity'; this abstract identity is the essence of pantheism. - Hegel, 'Becoming', in 'The Science of Logic', 1812.

xxx/ellauri149.html on line 493: Paul Bötticher (2 November 1827 – 22 December 1891) was a German biblical scholar and orientalist, sometimes regarded as one of the greatest orientalists of the 19th century. Lagarde´s strong support of anti-Semitism, vocal opposition to Christianity, racial Darwinism and anti-Slavism are viewed as having been among the most influential in supporting the ideology of Nazism.
xxx/ellauri157.html on line 589: In 1970, Richard Young, Alton L. Becker, and Kenneth Pike published Rhetoric: Discovery and Change, a widely influential college writing textbook that used a Rogerian approach to communication to revise the traditional Aristotelian framework for rhetoric. The Rogerian method of argument involves each side restating the other's position to the satisfaction of the other, among other tricks. On paper, it can be expressed by carefully acknowledging and understanding the opposition before dismissing them.
xxx/ellauri165.html on line 670: Milton in Paradise Lost refers to death as "sleep" and the dead as being "raised from sleep". The difference is difficult to identify in practice. Christian mortalism has been taught by several theologians and church organizations throughout history while also facing opposition from aspects of Christian organized religion. The Catholic Church condemned such thinking in the Fifth Council of the Lateran as "erroneous assertions". Supporters include the sixteenth-century religious figure Martin Luther and the eighteenth-century religious figure Henry Layton, among many others.
xxx/ellauri166.html on line 219: “This is spoken of God,” says Dr. Dodd, “after the manner of men, to denote his utter contempt of the opposition of his enemies; the perfect ease with which he was able to disappoint all their measures, and crush them for their impiety and folly; together with his absolute security, that his counsels should stand and his measures be finally accomplished; as men laugh at, and hold in utter contempt, those whose malice and power they know to be utterly vain and impotent. The introducing God as thus laughing at, and deriding his enemies, is in the true spirit of poetry, and with the utmost propriety and dignity.
xxx/ellauri170.html on line 729: Perhaps we do not give these scientists enough credit for the faith they possess. Yes, to believe in this type of human evolution takes a whole lot of faith. Sadly, their faith is placed in the wrong location and in an untrue process. If only they were able to place that faith in the real designer behind the design. I believe it is imperative we educate ourselves and teach this generation as Paul warned Timothy to “keep that which is committed to your trust, avoiding oppositions of science falsely so called” (1 Timothy 6:20). So I'm simplifying the quote, but I don't care. Evolution is not science. It is a theory: “a proposed explanation whose status is still conjectural and subject to experimentation” (dictionary.com).
xxx/ellauri193.html on line 283: Carlson myös väitti, että Zelenskyi on kieltänyt poliittisen opposition toiminnan maassa ja tehnyt Ukrainasta yksipuoluejärjestelmän. Sekin on totta, mutta vaihtoehtoista totuutta. Todellisuudessa Zelenskyi kielsi Venäjän hyökkäyksen jälkeen vain yhdentoista sellaisen puolueen toiminnan, joilla on tiiviitä yhteyksiä Venäjään. Vain yhdellä näistä puolueista oli edustajia Ukrainan parlamentissa. Ihan pikkutekijöitä olivat. Tosin siinä oli mukana myös suurin oppositiopuolue, jota johti Putinin lähipiiriin kuuluva ukrainalainen oligarkki Viktor Medvedtšuk. Parlamentissa on yhä muita oppositiopuolueita, esimerkiksi Petro Porošenkon ja Julija Tymošenkon puolueet, mutta ne ovat sentään pitäneet turvat rullalla.

The biography also stated that Gordimer's 1954 New Yorker essay, "A South African Childhood", was not wholly biographical and contained some fabricated events.
xxx/ellauri200.html on line 747: The reference to not bowing before "the Iron Crown", and later reference rejecting "the great Artefact" have been interpreted as Tolkien's opposition and resistance to accept what he perceived to be modern man's misplaced "faith" or "worship" of a kind of rationalism, and "progress" when defined by science and technology.

They married on November 6, 1945, despite the opposition of their respective parents. Ann typed his manuscripts and reviewed his writing.

Following his resignation, he served as vice chancellor of both the University of Sheffield (1905–12) and the University of Hong Kong (1912–18). His last diplomatic post was as the British ambassador to Japan, which he began in 1920. He retired in 1926, continuing to live in Japan.

Vuonna 1935 hän esitti ajatuksen, että poliittisen opposition salliminen johtaa väistämättä väkivaltaan ja terrorismiin ja oli siksi kukistettava. Siitä tuli Stalinin puhdistusten ideologinen perusta. Ježov nimitettiin 1936 sisäasiain kansankomissaariksi NKVD:n johtoon. Tässä ominaisuudessa hän johti terrorikampanjaa. Ježovin aikana vangittiin tai teloitettiin noin puolet Neuvostoliiton poliittisista ja sotilasjohtajista, lisäksi sadattuhannet muut, joita epäiltiin epälojaaliudesta tai taloudellisesta sabotaasista.

Around the time of Kōnia's final illness in 1857, Liliʻuokalani was briefly engaged to William Charles Lunalilo. They shared an interest in music composition and had known each other from childhood. He had been betrothed from birth to Princess Victoria, the king's sister, but disagreements with her brothers prevented the marriage from materializing. Thus, Lunalilo proposed to Liliʻuokalani during a trip to Lahaina to be with Kōnia. A short-lived dual engagement occurred in which Liliʻuokalani was matched to Lunalilo and her brother Kalakaua to Princess Victoria. She ultimately broke off the engagement because of the urging of King Kamehameha IV and the opposition of the Bishops to the union.
xxx/ellauri394.html on line 214: In June 1897 President McKinley signed the "Treaty for the Annexation for the Hawaiian Islands", but it failed to pass in the United States Senate after the Kūʻē Petitions were submitted by a commission of Native Hawaiian delegates consisting of James Keauiluna Kaulia, David Kalauokalani, William Auld, and John Richardson. Members of Hui Aloha ʻĀina collected over 21,000 signatures opposing an annexation treaty. Another 17,000 signatures were collected by members of Hui Kālaiʻāina but not submitted to the Senate because those signatures were also asking for restoration of the Queen. The petitions collectively were presented as evidence of the strong grassroots opposition of the Hawaiian community to annexation, and the treaty was defeated in the Senate— however, following its failure, Hawaii was annexed anyway via the Newlands Resolution, a joint resolution of Congress, in July 1898, shortly after the outbreak of the Spanish–American War.
