His most renowned work falls into cultural theory; art history including painting, sculpture, and architecture. He wrote on the critics of the old and modern English Literature too.

ellauri054.html on line 565: In 1846 Browning married the older poet Elizabeth Barrett and went to live in Italy. By the time of her death in 1861 he had published the crucial collection Men and Women (1855). The collection Dramatis Personae (1864) and the book-length epic poem The Ring and the Book (1868-1869) followed, and made him a leading British poet. He continued to write prolifically, but his reputation today rests largely on the poetry he wrote in this middle period.

He found that the "more exalted characters" (the aristocrats of Athens) are subservient to the interests of those beneath them. In other words, the lower-class characters play larger roles than their betters and overshadow them. He found this to be a grave error of the writer.

ellauri072.html on line 499: David Foster Wallace wrote three novels, three story collections, two collections of essays, and other things too, but his reputation still rests mainly on “Infinite Jest” — the 1,100-page novel published in 1996 and set alternately in a tennis academy and a rehab center — and on his sui generis now-nearly-a-genre long-form journalism about topics ranging from lobsters to dictionaries to John McCain to the Adult Video News awards for pornographic films. Wallace’s best work, perhaps by far, is “The Pale King,” an unfinished novel about I.R.S. employees that was assembled posthumously by Wallace’s editor, Michael Pietsch.
ellauri078.html on line 141: By Emily Dickinson’s own account, she delighted in all aspects of the school—the curriculum, the teachers, the students. The school prided itself on its connection with Amherst College, offering students regular attendance at college lectures in all the principal subjects— astronomy, botany, chemistry, geology, mathematics, natural history, natural philosophy, and zoology. As this list suggests, the curriculum reflected the 19th-century emphasis on science. That emphasis reappeared in Dickinson’s poems and letters through her fascination with naming, her skilled observation and cultivation of flowers, her carefully wrought descriptions of plants, and her interest in “chemic force.” Those interests, however, rarely celebrated science in the same spirit as the teachers advocated.
ellauri078.html on line 143: In an early poem, she chastised science for its prying interests. Its system interfered with the observer’s preferences; its study took the life out of living things. In “‘Arcturus’ is his other name” she writes, “I pull a flower from the woods - / A monster with a glass / Computes the stamens in a breath - / And has her in a ‘class!’” At the same time, Dickinson’s study of botany was clearly a source of delight. She encouraged her friend Abiah Root to join her in a school assignment: “Have you made an herbarium yet? I hope you will, if you have not, it would be such a treasure to you.” She herself took that assignment seriously, keeping the herbarium generated by her botany textbook for the rest of her life.
ellauri078.html on line 155: Upon their return, unmarried daughters were indeed expected to demonstrate their dutiful nature by setting aside their own interests in order to meet the needs of the home. For Dickinson the change was hardly welcome. Her letters from the early 1850s register dislike of domestic work and frustration with the time constraints created by the work that was never done. “God keep me from what they call households,” she exclaimed in a letter to Root in 1850.

ellauri094.html on line 654: The body of Algernon Charles Swinburne’s poetry is so vast and varied that it is difficult to generalize about it. Swinburne wrote poetry for more than sixty years, and in that time he treated an enormous variety of subjects and employed many poetic forms and meters. He wrote English and Italian sonnets, elegies, odes, lyrics, dramatic monologues, ballads, and romances; and he experimented with the rondeau, the ballade, and the sestina. Much of this poetry is marked by a strong lyricism and a self-conscious, formal use of such rhetorical devices as alliteration, assonance, repetition, personification, and synecdoche. Swinburne’s brilliant self-parody, “Nephilidia,” hardly exaggerates the excessive rhetoric of some of his earlier poems. The early A Song of Italy would have more effectively conveyed its extreme republican sentiments had it been more restrained. As it is, content is too often lost in verbiage, leading a reviewer for The Athenaeum to remark that “hardly any literary bantling has been shrouded in a thicker veil of indefinite phrases.” A favorite technique of Swinburne is to reiterate a poem’s theme in a profusion of changing images until a clear line of development is lost. “The Triumph of Time” is an example. Here the stanzas can be rearranged without loss of effect. This poem does not so much develop as accrete. Clearly a large part of its greatness rests in its music. As much as any other poet, Swinburne needs to be read aloud. The diffuse lyricism of Swinburne is the opposite of the closely knit structures of John Donne and is akin to the poetry of Walt Whitman.
ellauri097.html on line 451: On the principle the challenger is correct in describing the is-ought fallacy. But rather than working against the teleological argument, that principle works against a common argument in favor of homosexuality, which is, if homosexual interests are natural to someone, they are therefore morally acceptable. That is an example of an is-ought fallacy.

You have broad interests and are very imaginative.” Low scorers are described as “Down-to-earth, practical, traditional, and pretty much set in your ways.” This is the sub-scale that shows the strongest relationship to politics: liberals generally score high on this trait; they like change and variety, sometimes just for the sake of change and variety. Conservatives generally score lower on this trait. (Just think about the kinds of foods likely to be served at very liberal or very conservative social events.)
ellauri106.html on line 106: That same year, rather than wait to be drafted, Roth enlisted in the army. Roth enlisted in the Army that year to avoid being drafted and assigned to unpleasant duty like the infantry. Fortunately he suffered a back injury during basic training and was given a medical discharge. Who knows. He returned to Chicago in 1956 to study for a PhD in literature but dropped out after one term. It was a yeasty environment for a young writer. Saul Bellow was a contemporary and with some what similar backgrounds and interests they could not avoid being rivals. During that year he met a lovely shiksa waitress Margaret Martinson, a single woman with a small child. He was smitten. An intense, but often troubled relationship ensued. At the end of the year he dropped out of the U of C and headed to the University of Iowa to teach in its creative writing program. None the less, whatever he may have said, Roth was not happy there, perhaps because the semi-rural Midwesterness of Ames was alien to him. After a while with Martinson in tow he moved on to a similar position at Princeton, another WASP bastion but one with even more prestige. Everyone who knew him recognized Roth as an early comer. He later continued his academic career at the University of Pennsylvania, where he taught comparative literature before retiring from teaching in 1991. Roth started teaching literature in the late 1960s at the University of Pennsylvania. The 1969 feature film adaptation of Goodbye, Columbus coincided with the publication of Portnoy’s Complaint, which soon became a best-seller amid controversy for its prurient content. (Those who've read it will likely not forget Portnoy's "love affair" with mom´s slab of liver in the fridge.)

ellauri142.html on line 1071: Smail wrote several books on the subject of psychotherapy, emphasizing the extent to which society is often responsible for personal distress. Critical of the claims made by psychotherapy, he suggests that it only works to the extent that the therapist becomes a friend of the patient, providing encouragement and support. Much distress, he says, results from current conflicts, not past ones, and in any case, damage done probably cannot be undone, though we may learn to live with it. He doubts whether 'catharsis', the process whereby it is supposed that understanding past events makes them less painful, really works. The assumption that depression, or any other form of mental distress, is caused by something within the person that can be fixed, is he argued, without foundation. He could thus be regarded as part of the 'anti-psychiatry' movement, along with R.D. Laing and Thomas Szasz, but where Laing emphasised family nexus as making psychosis understandable, Smail emphasises 'Interest' and power in relation to more everyday distress. These are integral to Western society, and, he suggests, considered out of bounds by most psychotherapists, who are themselves both constrained and complicit in protecting their own interests.

ellauri147.html on line 254: Nevertheless, not all critics were this kind to the Emily character. Emma Gray from HuffPost called Emily a bland character, stating "The show doesn´t even make an effort to quirk her up or give her a more relatable, girl-next-door roughness: she´s always immaculately coiffed and made-up, and garbed in effortfully eye-catching outfits. But there´s not much to the character, except for enormous amounts of self-confidence and the inexplicable ability to attract new friends and love interests on every street corner." Rebecca Nicholson of The Guardian gave the series one out of five stars: "if it is an attempt to fluff up the romcom for the streaming age, then it falls over on its six-inch heels." Rachel Handler opined "Darren Star has done it yet again: centered an entire show on a thin, gently delusional white woman whimsically exploring a major metropolitan area in wildly expensive couture purchased on a mid-level salary."

When push came to shove, the lawyer knew our Lord's functional definition of “neighbor” was absolutely right. He had nowhere to hide. The story did the trick; it cut to the heart of the matter, while avoiding trivial details to quibble over for hours. It was not the lawyer who made Jesus look bad with all his minutiae but Jesus who made the lawyer look bad with a simple story. The best part about similes that they can be tweaked any way you wish.

On the other hand, Jean-Claude Guilbert (a professional actor who also appeared in Au Hasard Balthazar, as another drunkard, Arnold) is also very good. The rest of the cast is solid. Yet, critical missteps abound, especially when some claim Mouchette is filled with anger. Yes, there may be acts of seeming anger (tossing dirt at her female rivals), but clearly the character of Mouchette is a walking mass of desensitisation. This would explain why she reacts the way she does to sex with Arsene, rather than seeing it as her ‘striking back’ at the world.

Although the Sanhedrin had the right to condemn Jesus to death and execute the sentence, it seemed opportune for various reasons to have the governor render this verdict. Moreover, although the Sanhedrin and the Roman governor had very diverse perspectives on Jesus, their interests finally converged, which led to Pilate’s condemnation of Jesus on grounds of unproven political charges.

ellauri196.html on line 624: Its fundamentally conservative "pure and simple" approach limited the AFL to matters pertaining to working conditions and rates of pay, relegating political goals to its allies in the political sphere. The Federation favored pursuit of workers' immediate demands rather than challenging the property rights of owners, and took a pragmatic view of politics which favored tactical support for particular politicians over formation of a party devoted to workers' interests. The AFL's leadership believed the expansion of the capitalist system was seen as the path to betterment of labor, an orientation making it possible for the AFL to present itself as what one historian has called "the conservative alternative to working class radicalism."
ellauri196.html on line 626: However, in the 1900s (decade), the two parties began to realign, with the main faction of the Republican Party coming to identify with the interests of banks and manufacturers, while a substantial portion of the rival Democratic Party took a more labor-friendly position. While not precluding its members from belonging to the Socialist Party or working with its members, the AFL traditionally refused to pursue the tactic of independent political action by the workers in the form of the existing Socialist Party or the establishment of a new labor party. After 1908, the organization´s tie to the Democratic party grew increasingly strong.
ellauri198.html on line 237: Although the strike lasted nearly six months, the tide quickly turned. Union leaders had recently initiated a policy of supporting President Franklin Roosevelt and the Democratic Party. They told their workers that they could trust the Democrats and count on them to defend their interests. But Democratic governors, all allied with Roosevelt and all good friends of big business, used their power to beat strikers into submission. In Johnstown, Pennsylvania, the governor declared martial law and police reopened a closed plant and herded scabs into the factory to restart production, breaking the strike. In Ohio, the governor ordered National Guard troops from town to town to smash picket lines, beat and arrest strikers, raid union offices, and escort scabs into the factories. In Youngstown, two workers were shot dead, two more in Massillon, and another was beaten to death in Canton. Thousands more were beaten and arrested throughout the state at those and other locations.
ellauri198.html on line 828: Yeats kept his sixth-grader occultist badge away from his poems, which are simple enough to be understood by sixth-graders, unlike Blake and Shelley, but like his rhyming predecessor Keats. Even so, Yeats’s visionary and idealist interests were more closely aligned with those of Blake and Shelley than with those of Keats, and in the 1899 collection The Wind among the Reeds the occult symbolism rears its ugly head in several poems.
ellauri198.html on line 851: As Yeats aged, he saw Ireland change in ways that angered him. The Anglo-Irish Protestant minority no longer controlled Irish society and culture. According to Yeats’s unblushingly antidemocratic view, the greatness of Anglo-Irishmen such as Jonathan Swift, philosopher George Berkeley, and statesman Edmund Burke, contrasted sharply with the undistinguished commonness of contemporary Irish society, which seemed preoccupied with the interests of merchants and bloody peasants. He laid out his unpopular opinions in late plays such as Purgatory (1938) and the essays of On the Boiler (1939).
ellauri210.html on line 836: The selections from Cravan, Vache, and Torma reveal a broadly defined set of interests — the new excitement of the metropolis (particularly New York), the frustrations of avant-garde badinage, the bitterness of literary rivalry, the torpor induced by middle-class life.

ellauri219.html on line 599: Pope Benedict’s basic answer is that, although modern principles of political freedom, democracy, equality, and reasonable argument are to be affirmed, a free state rests on “pre-political moral foundations,” which serve as normative points of reference for every regime and must be held in common by all religions and secular world-views. This answer reflects the fact that Pope Benedict disagrees with Rawls on at least two fundamental issues, which constitute the core of the debate between them and to which I shall refer regularly in the course of my analysis. In the first place, Pope Benedict does not share Rawls’s trust in fundamental human reasonableness as a guarantee for political fairness. For Rawls, persons are reasonable when they are ready to propose principles and standards as fair terms of cooperation and to abide by them willingly, given the assurance that others will likewise do so. Those norms they view as reasonable for everyone to accept and therefore as justifiable to them; and they are ready to discuss the fair terms that others propose.

The ostensible reason was to make them individual landholders and thus “Americanized” members of a capitalist system. It was felt this would “solve” the “Indian problem”. In short that it would make them no longer part of the ethnic communities they were members of. However the main push to “solve” the “problem” was by Anglo-Americans who wanted to take that land. Thus land was distributed to tribal members and the “surplus” was given or sold at a cut rate to White Americans or turned into National Forests and Parks or military bases. Land owned by Native Americans decreased from 138 million acres in 1887 to 48 million acres in 1934. They lost 2/3s of their treaty land base. About 90,000 Native Americans were made landless.
ellauri248.html on line 349: Today there is about 10,059,290 acres (15,700 sq miles) of individually owned lands are still held in trust for Native American allotees and their heirs. There are about four million fractional owner interests in this 10 million acres. Each generation the individual share gets less. One part of the Act was the establishment of a trust fund, administered by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, to collect and distribute revenues from oil, mineral, timber, and grazing leases on Native American lands. The BIA´s grossly mismanaged these funds. They were never collected or lost or stolen. This negligence in the management of the trust fund resulted in a number of lawsuits. The most well known is Cobell v. Salazar which led to a $3.4 billion settlement in 2009. The suit has forced proper accounting of revenues for the future but the settlement gave the litigants cents on the dollar.
ellauri248.html on line 353: In contrast to the 2.3% of Native land, the Federal Government owns, as National Parks, Forests, BLM, US Ag land, Fish and Wildlife land, military reservations, wildlife refuges and so on, about 28% of the surface area of the US. That is 640 million acres, or 1 million sq miles. That 28% of the US land was and taken by force from tribes, as was all other state lands and privately held lands. If the US people so chose, we could more fairly address the large losses that Native people have had by transferring more of this land to Tribal governments.
ellauri254.html on line 503: Klages developed an intense childhood friendship with classmate Theodor Lessing, with whom he shared "many passionate interests." Klages fought to maintain their friendship in spite of his father's anti-semitism. According to Lessing, "Ludwig's father did not view his son's fraternization with 'Juden' as acceptable." Klages' childhood friendship with Theodor Lessing came to a bitter end in 1899. Both would later write about the depth of their relationship and influence on each other—though many aspects, such as the effect race had on their friendship, remain unclear.
ellauri256.html on line 253: Young Boris grew up at the Arbat, a historical area in Moscow. He was a polymath whose interests included mathematics, biology, chemistry, music, philosophy, and literature. Bugaev attended university at the University of Moscow. He would go on to take part in both the Symbolist movement and the Russian school of neo-Kantianism. Bugaev became friendly with Alexander Blok and his wife; he fell in love with her, which caused tensions between the two poets. One of his notions was the Eternal Feminine, which he equated it with the "world soul" and the "supra-individual ego", the ego shared by all individuals. He supported the Bolshevik rise to power and later dedicated his efforts to Soviet culture, serving on the Organizational Committee of the Union of Soviet Writers.
ellauri260.html on line 78: Personalismo is a cult of personality built around Latin American and African political leaders in personalist dictatorships. It often involves subjugating the interests of political parties, ideologies and constitutional government to loyalty to one leader. In personalismo, it is customary for the dictator's personal charisma to be considered as more important than political achievements.
ellauri260.html on line 238: Adam Smith's picture of laissez-faire was thoroughly optimistic. In the unrestricted competition of individuals and nations Smith saw an immeasurable gain in freedom and power. The interests of all seemed to him to unite in a complete harmony, and to guarantee a steady progress of the whole. He thought of the whole as well as the individuals, but the entire collective condition seemed to him to be best promoted when it was left to the activities of the most deserving individuals. While earlier ages had talked of a religious, scientific, or artistic type of life, we now have, added to these, if not placed higher than they, an economic type. (Eikös kauppiassääty ollut mukana myös hindujen luonnetyypeissä? Tosin ei kärjessä kuten Smithillä, Intiassa siellä rellestivät brahmiinit.)
ellauri260.html on line 328: Hitherto the beautiful had been considered far superior to the useful, but the useful is now cleansed of the stain that it was supposed to have ; it is ennobled and becomes a spur to action. The beautiful got to be what it always is, a luxury available to those who have the means. Engels olis sevverran oikeassa että "it is not ideas, as independent forces, but the vital interests of business life, which control the whole." Rikastuminen ei ole keino vaan päämäärä, ainoa että sosialismissa se jaettaisiin koko porukalle eikä kökkäreille yxinään.
ellauri260.html on line 361: Socialism wants to create a structure which is superior to the individuals, and all its wishes and hopes are centred in this, but what it constructs can never be more than a bringing together of separate elements without any inner connection. It thus comes to be divided in its own body. Its ideal of the whole demands a world of action, and puts in on the lines of self-direction and spirit ; but in its actual development it imitates the mere contiguity of the material world and is bound up with it. The consequence is that it contains several different ideals of life which are not reconciled with each other. Even the happiness it offers is marred by this division. The whole body is to be as happy as possible ; but what is the nature of the happiness if in the end it means merely the welfare of individuals, if it does not evolve a realm of goodness and truth out of the turmoil of interests and enable human nature to participate in it ? Quantity, it seems, is to replace quality ; but is that done so easily ? Do we not find ourselves in entirely different worlds ? Socialism wants a community, but can only attain a comradeship. It can find stones for the building and stimulate people to work ; but it cannot either design or create the entire structure.
ellauri260.html on line 375: To meet this intolerable emptiness men turned to work, in order to derive from it a worthy aim for their lives. The nineteenth century in particular produced a fine and very successful idealism of work in this sense. With a feverish exaltation of all its forces and a concentration of all its interests it brought the whole of life into subjection to work, but its very success made its defects' clear to everybody, and awakened fresh concern - about the soul. That put wind into the sails ' of Socialism, but, as it recognised no soul beyond one's subjective experience, it could give man as, a whole no purpose and no substance.

ellauri269.html on line 350: Because it operates in support of Russian interests, receives military equipment from the Russian Ministry of Defence (MoD) and uses installations of MoD for training, Wagner Group is frequently considered a de facto unit of the MoD or Russia's military intelligence agency, the GRU. It is widely speculated that the Wagner Group is used by the Russian government to allow for plausible deniability in certain conflicts, and to obscure from public the number of casualties and financial costs of Russia's foreign interventions. It has played a significant role in the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, where, among other activities, it has been reportedly deployed to assassinate Ukrainian leaders, and has widely recruited prisoners and convicts for frontline combat. In December 2022, Pentagon's John Kirby claimed Wagner group has 50,000 fighters in Ukraine, including 10,000 contractors and 40,000 convicts. Others put the number of recruited prisoners at more like 20,000, with the overall number of PMCs present in Ukraine estimated at 20,000. After years of denying links to the Wagner group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, a businessman with close links to Putin, admitted in September 2022 that he "founded" the paramilitary group. Now (Feb 2023) he is angry because he is not getting all the attention and financial support he wants. He says that the Kreml nomenclature are thereby guilty of high treason. *This article may be too long to read and navigate comfortably, so I stop here.

He was also condemned by South Africa´s Afrikaner nationalists, who contended that by abandoning apartheid, he betrayed the interests of the country´s Afrikaner minority. South Africa´s Conservative Party came to regard him as its most hated adversary.

ellauri321.html on line 112: Here sorrow and desolation awaited him. His wife had died a few weeks before his arrival, his farm had been ravaged, his children were in the care of strangers. But as he had been appointed French Consul in New York with the especially expressed approbation of Washington, he remained in America six years longer, with only one brief interval spent in France. Notwithstanding the disastrous practical influence of his book, through which five hundred Norman families are said to have perished in the forests of Ohio, he was now an honored citizen in his adopted country, distinguished by Washington, and the friend of Franklin. In these later years he accompanied Franklin on various journeys, one of which is recorded in the “Voyage Dans La Haute Pennsylvanie.” In 1790 he returned to France, living now at Rouen, now at Sarcelles, where he died on November 12, 1813. He was a man of “serene temper and pure benevolence,” of good sense and sound judgment; something also of a dreamer, yet of a rhetorical rather than a poetical temperament; typically French, since there were in him no extremes of opinion or emotion. He followed the dictates of his reason tempered by the warmth of his heart, and treated life justly and sanely.

And then she found that she had leant upon a reed. She was neglected; and was at last forsaken. Having sent her to London, Imlay there visited her, to explain himself away. She resolved on suicide, and in dissuading her from that he gave her hope again. He needed somebody who had good judgment, and who cared for his interests, to represent him in some business affairs in Norway. She undertook to act for him, and set out on the voyage only a week after she had determined to destroy herself.

His eye soon rests on Dimmesdale, a young overwrought pastor. Enmity grows between the two men; Chillingworth applies psychological pressure, and the pastor begins to crack. A ship stops in Salem, and Hester sees it as a providential refuge for her daughter, herself, and her lover. But will Dimmesdale flee with her? Or without perhaps?

ellauri347.html on line 457: The myth is that in Russia in the 1990s liberal market reform created a prolonged recession. It is true that liberal reform was attempted and that output fell heavily over six years, but the former did not cause the latter. Liberal reform as originally conceived was never fully or adequately implemented in Russia. They just did not give the oligarchs free hands. In Russia, politically weak authorities failed to follow through with cutting public spending, and privatization was marred by corruption. The false belief that a well-functioning market economy is somehow incompatible with Russia weakens Western interests in Russia.
ellauri347.html on line 469: This myth again reflects the triumph of hope over experience and analysis. Russia has national interests that go beyond the difficulties perceived with Putin’s rule. As a result, the likelihood of a post-Putin Russia building a Western style oligarchic system is now lower than it was during the 1990s. In particular, the country would need a new professional cadre of Western minded elite bureaucrats and policymakers if it is to deliver accountable and effective governance for us. Yet conditions for the cultivation of such a cadre do not exist in today’s Russia. Why they can't even buy genuine McDonald burgers or Coke out there. Irrespective of who eventually succeeds Putin, Russia’s political culture is certain to continue to impede the development of more lucrative exploitation by the West.

ellauri369.html on line 374: Kitty Kirkpatrick was born in India, the child of James Achilles Kirkpatrick, British Resident in Hyderabad (1798–1805), and Khair-un-Nissa, a Hyderabadi noblewoman. Through her mother, Kirkpatrick was a Sayyida or lineal descendant of the prophet Muhammad. Kirkpatrick was initially named Noor un-Nissa, Sahib Begum ("Little Lady of High Lineage"), and was raised a Shi'a Muslim in the mansion her father built, the British Residency, Hyderabad. As a result of her father's conversion to Islam and his "perceived" betrayal of British interests in India, Kirkpatrick and her elder brother Mir Ghulam Ali, Sahib Allum, were taken from their parents when they were about three and five years old respectively. They were sent to live with their paternal grandfather, Colonel James Kirkpatrick, in England. Their father died shortly after the children's departure. The two children were baptised as Christians on 25 March 1805 at St. Mary’s Church, Marylebone Road, and were thereafter known by their new Christian names, William George Kirkpatrick and Katherine Aurora "Kitty" Kirkpatrick. They never again saw India or any members of their maternal family. Kitty grew up to be a famous beauty. In 1822, while staying with her Buller cousins, she met the Scottish philosopher and historian, Thomas Carlyle, who was then employed as the Buller children's tutor and who swiftly became infatuated with Kirkpatrick. However, the impoverished Carlyle was not believed by the rest of the family to be a suitable match for the wealthy and well-connected Kirkpatrick. Carlyle would later immortalise Kirkpatrick as the Calypso-like Blumine in his novel Sartor Resartus.
ellauri370.html on line 471: Spengler and Sombart could not agree more. Duhring´s political economy has much in common with that of Mahatma Gandhi, the Indian leader, who attacked exploitation in any form, capitalist or Marxist, and advocated a society based on the principles of moral conscience, economic self-sufficiency, and mutual cooperation. He also drank his own pee and slept naked sandwiched between teenage girls. Diihring considered all property related to personal accomplishment as vigorously to be defended against the acquisitive grasp of Socialistic measures. All Marxist denials of social classifications are thus Utopian since a conflict of interests is indivisibly linked to the natural differences between man and mouse.
ellauri402.html on line 487: After the Civil War, increased leftist activity was particularly evident on construction sites. The number of strikes increased and several of them became politicized. The interests of the Communists and the Soviet Union were seen as the reason for the strikes. In 1920, employers' organizations decided to set up a special organization focused on breaking strikes. Martti Pihkala came to lead this organization called Vientirauha. Vientirauha, known as the 'Pihkala Guard', had a maximum of 34,000 men, from which strike breakers could be assembled if necessary. Especially in Southern Ostrobothnia, Pihkala's organization was strong. Vihtori Kosola, the future frontman of the Lapua movement was an agent for the Vientirauha. The best known of the strikes broken by the organization was the year-long harbor strike that began in 1928.

Russia dismissed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s peace formula which would require Moscow to pull back its troops, pay compensation to Ukraine and face an international tribunal for its action. Putin has repeatedly said that he sent troops into Ukraine in February 2022 to protect Russian interests and prevent Ukraine from posing a major security threat to Russia by joining NATO. Putin has vowed to extend Moscow’s gains in Ukraine, claiming that Russian forces have the upper hand after the failure of Ukraine’s counteroffensive and that Ukraine and the West will “sooner or later” have to accept a settlement on Moscow’s terms.
ellauri425.html on line 567: Even with the four eastern oblasts in Ukraine, Russia does still not have the capabilities necessary to significantly threaten the security situation further west in Europe. But creating conditions for a stronger relationship between Russia and Europe would potentially alter the balance of power in the region against the current interests of the United States. The control of resources and increased ability for projection that would be awarded to Moscow by such a scenario provide it with a potentially dangerous amount of leverage. This is especially true given Russia’s increasing strategic cooperation with China.

Medina, on the other hand, is where the Prophet Muhammad rests. Knowing their importance and roles in Islamic worship is crucial. The journey from Mecca to Medina, known as the Hijra, started a new calendar in Islamic history. Medina is in western Saudi Arabia, about 280 miles (450 km, linnuntietä 340 km) north of Mecca. It’s in a valley, surrounded by mountains. It’s one of Islam’s holiest cities. Kaupungin varhaisempi nimi oli Jathrib. Ibn Hishamin 800-luvulla kirjoitetun Muhammed -elämäkerran mukaan profeetta Muhammed pakeni Mekasta Medinaan vuonna 622 (hidzra) ja aloitti sieltä käsin sotaretkensä uskottomia vastaan. Vuonna 2010 Medina oli Saudi-Arabian neljänneksi suurin kaupunki Riadin, Jeddan ja Mekan jälkeen. Liikenteessä nopeudet ovat kovia ja onnettomuuksia sattuu paljon.

ellauri435.html on line 437: This myth rests on the premise that a combination of self-evident geopolitical weight, mutual economic interests and compensation for a century of economic repraisals are overriding imperatives for a successful reset with Russia – leading to a fully functional relationship among oligarchs. But the arrangement simply would not work. Mainly because Russia keeps being threatened by The West, and by the US in particular. It wasn't all about the commies, after all.

ellauri435.html on line 451: A better relationship with Russia, whatever its price, would do little to prevent China’s capabilities from continuing to grow. While China’s transgressions of international law viz. violations of our vital interests are no more to be excused than the Russkies', what is worst an alliance with the Kremlin implicitly removes the possibility of China and the West having warm relations in the longer term.
ellauri435.html on line 469: The myth is that in Russia in the 1990s liberal market reform created a prolonged recession. It is true that liberal reform was attempted and that output fell heavily over six years, but the former did not cause the latter. Liberal reform as originally conceived was never fully or adequately implemented in Russia. They just did not give the oligarchs free hands. In Russia, politically weak authorities failed to follow through with cutting public spending, and privatization was marred by corruption. The false belief that a well-functioning market economy is somehow incompatible with Russia weakens Western interests in Russia.
ellauri435.html on line 481: This myth again reflects the triumph of hope over experience and analysis. Russia has national interests that go beyond the difficulties perceived with Putin’s rule. As a result, the likelihood of a post-Putin Russia building a Western style oligarchic system is now lower than it was during the 1990s. In particular, the country would need a new professional cadre of Western minded elite bureaucrats and policymakers if it is to deliver accountable and effective governance for us. Yet conditions for the cultivation of such a cadre do not exist in today’s Russia. Why they can't even buy genuine McDonald burgers or Coke out there. Irrespective of who eventually succeeds Putin, Russia’s political culture is certain to continue to impede the development of more lucrative exploitation by the West.

ellauri445.html on line 298: The reason for Sparta's dismissal of the Athenian force is unknown but it has been suggested that Sparta did not trust Athens any further they could throw them. Early accounts simply state that the Spartans did not like the look of Cimon's soldiers. Whatever the reason was, in 461 BCE Pericles again charged Cimon with corruption – this time by claiming he was aiding Spartan interests – and succeeded in having his rival ostracized from the city for ten years. Shortly afterwards in the same year, Ephialtes was assassinated by person or persons unknown; these two events mark the beginning of Pericles' rise to power.

Hän käski Innocentiusta mitätöimään matojen (Worms) konkordaatin ja tunnustamaan keisarillisen kruunun oikeuden tehdä nimityksiä kaikkiin avoimiin benefiitteihin. In 1210, he sought to unite the Kingdom of Sicily with the Empire, breaking with Innocent, who promptly excommunicated him.

By 1954, Hoxha relinquished the PM role to Mehmet Shehu but kept power, solidifying control rather than falling to a coup.

Even as a sixteen-year-old, he identified such gatherings as a result of humanity’s fall into sin. “I find that the people whose society I prefer to my own are very few and far between” (letter to Arthur Greeves, November 17, 1914). He deeply valued “solitude together” with a small number of people with whom he shared "common interests."
ellauri480.html on line 496: Tolkien was Roman Catholic and a philologist—both of which triggered deep prejudices in Lewis. As an Ulster Protestant, Lewis had been raised to distrust Roman Catholics and, as a scholar of English literature, he did not trust philologists. But they quickly caught on their "common interests". “It was very obvious that they were great friends—indeed, they were like two young bear cubs sometimes, just happily wrestling with one another.”

ellauri481.html on line 387: “Every Palestinian who works in intelligence,” he told me, “is convinced that Israel has a big hand in Abu Nidal’s affairs.” His suspicions had now hardened into a conviction: Abu Nidal was not just an extreme rejectionist who sold his services to Arab regimes. Israel had gained control of him. That was the key to his persistent sabotage of Palestinian interests. . . . . Abu Nidal had killed the PLO’s most accomplished diplomats: Hammami, in London; Qalaq, in Paris; Yassin, in Kuwait; he had slaughtered hundreds of Palestinian fighters; he had debased the Palestinian national struggle with his senseless and savage terrorism and succeeded in alienating the Palestinians’ best friends. He had made the word Palestinian synonymous with terrorist. . . . Abu Nidal, he told me, was the greatest enemy of the Palestinian people. Eventually Abu Iyad himself was murdered on orders from Abu Nidal.
ellauri481.html on line 437:

Nidal never directly attacked Israel and Israel never attacked him. Likewise, for all his criticisms of Israel, Bin Laden never attacked it, nor did Israel attack him. It might be argued that Bin Laden couldn’t have penetrated Israel very easily to strike at it, but certainly he could have hit Israeli “soft” targets such as its overseas embassies (just as he did with U.S. embassies). Israel’s embassies he left untouched. Confining himself to U.S. targets served the interests of the Israelis, who wanted the U.S. to make war on their enemies.

The Ark is a large aggregate structure in Doğubayazıt, Ağrı, Turkey. The resulting widespread speculation in evangelical Christian circles that this might be Noah's Ark started Wyatt on his career as an amateur archaeologist. From 1977 until his death, in 1999, he made more than a hundred trips to the Middle East, his interests widening to take in a great variety of references from the Old and New Testaments. By the time of his death, Wyatt claimed to have discovered several hundreds of sites and artifacts related to the Bible and biblical archaeology.

An Anglo-Egyptian army under British Commander-in-Chief of Egyptian Army Major General[b] Herbert Kitchener marched south from Egypt. Kitchener captured Dongola on 21 September 1896, and Abu Hamed on 7 August 1897. At the Battle of the Atbara River on 7 April 1898, he defeated Mahdist forces led by Osman Dinga and Khalifa Abdullah, opening a line of march up the Nile. On 1 September 1898 Kitchener, supported by a powerful flotilla of gunboats, arrived to face the main Mahdist army at Omdurman, near Khartoum.

ellauri498.html on line 224: Nehemiah’s return to Jerusalem around 445 BCE was a massive turning point for the Jewish people. While earlier waves of returning exiles focused on rebuilding the temple, Nehemiah’s mission was all about political security, structural restoration, and societal reform. Nehemiah was not a priest or a prophet; he was the highly trusted high-ranking cup winner to the Persian King Artaxerxes I (Ahasverus). He arrived not as a refugee, but as the officially appointed Governor of Judah (Tirshatha), complete with a military escort and royal letters granting him free timber from the king’s forests.
ellauri498.html on line 606: Historically, the SP was dismissed by many south-minded scholars as theologically corrupted and therefore of little value for reconstructing the original Hebrew text. Wilhelm Gesenius’ influential assessment in the early 19th century typified this view. He argued that the SP was secondary and shaped by sectarian interests. While the original concept of Yahweh may have been henotheistic (devoted to a single deity while accepting the possible existence of others like cone-hatted thunder gods (fig.1), fish (fig.2), huge dogshit bins (fig.3), fat ladies with telltale holes (fig.4) and golden bulls (fig.5), rather than monotheistic, the Southpaw Jews (known as prophets) insisted that the Israelites too must worship Him alone (fig.6). A reason why the ancient Israelites worshipped Baal was because they thought Yahweh and Baal were one and the same.
ellauri499.html on line 141:

However, the Hebrew Bible’s partisan portrayal of Ahab— judged the worst king in Israel’s history by the Judean editors of the books of Kings (1 Kgs 16:30; cf. 1 Kgs 21:25–26)—and his son Ahaziah as unrepentant Baal worshipers cannot be taken at face value, serving as it does late Judahite political and religious interests.

While some scholars argue that the Baal polemics in the Elijah cycle contain traces of early Israelite tradition, the writers who composed and edited the biblical material in the books of Kings about the Omrides’ worship of Baal clearly were Judean scribes active in the post-monarchic period, hundreds of years af- ter the events portrayed.

ellauri501.html on line 643: Mario Vargas Llosa's actual political career in Peru did eventually give his critics exactly what they wanted: a front-row seat to his dramatic political defeat. If you want to see where his ideology actually failed in the real world, you have to look at his disastrous run for the Peruvian presidency in 1990.The 1990 Presidential DefeatThe Arrogant Campaign: Llosa ran for president of Peru leading a coalition of traditional right-wing elite parties. He ran an incredibly out-of-touch, high-budget campaign that alienated the country's poor, indigenous, and working-class majority. The "Shock" Therapy: He openly promised harsh neoliberal economic reforms—essentially telling voters that things would get much worse before they got better. The Ultimate Humiliation: He was decisively beaten by a complete political outsider, Alberto Fujimori. The elite intellectual who thought he understood Latin American society perfectly was rejected by his own people. The Hypocrisy of His Later Years, The Ultimate Flip-Flop: For decades, Llosa lectured the world about liberty and anti-authoritarianism. Yet, in the 2021 Peruvian election, he shocked his remaining moderate supporters by endorsing Keiko Fujimori—the daughter of the very dictator who beat him in 1990 and who was jailed for human rights abuses. Critics pointed to this as proof that his "anti-fanaticism" was always just a cover for protecting right-wing interests.

It is a political and legal union whose member states have different histories, security relationships, economic interests, and domestic red lines—especially Germany and Austria because of the Holocaust, and others because of strategic ties with Israel and the United States. The EU has continued to maintain preferential trade and political cooperation through the EU–Israel Association Agreement; permit some member-state arms exports or arms-transit arrangements; protect diplomatic and economic relations despite allegations of war crimes and genocide; issue condemnations and humanitarian aid while resisting stronger collective measures plus giving loza votes for youpins in the EuroHomo singalong contest.

The United States was infuriated by the cool Israeli response to Egypt's proposal, and Joseph Sisco informed Yitzhak Rabin that "Israel would be regarded responsible for rejecting the best opportunity to reach peace since the establishment of the state."

The subsoil was made up of clay, with sand and silt as the top layer of soil. The tidal marsh, which helped to clean and oxygenate the water that passed through it, was destroyed by the dump. The fauna were largely replaced by herring gulls. The native plant species were driven out by the common reed, a grass which grows abundantly in disturbed areas and can tolerate both fresh and brackish water. The stagnant, deoxygenated water was also less attractive to waterfowl, and their population decreased. Samuel Kearing, who had served as sanitation commissioner under Mayor John V.

xxx/ellauri232.html on line 85: Far-right groups have been a consistent presence in the Swedish political underground since the early 1920s, with their high point coming in the municipal elections of 1934, when around eighty council members of Svenska nationalsocialistiska partiet (the Swedish National Socialist Party) were elected across the country. After a long period of mainstream political inactivity in the wake of the Second World War, neo-fascism grew stronger in the 1980s, culminating in the emergence of several new neo-Nazi organisations in the 1990s. The most notable of these groups was Nationalsocialistik Front (the National Socialist Front), who were replaced by the currently active Svenskarnas Parti (the Party of the Swedes) in 2009. The Party of the Swedes’ political program states that “only people who belong to the western genetic and cultural heritage, where ethnic Swedes are included, should be Swedish citizens”, as well as their belief that “all policy decisions should be based on what is best for the interests of the ethnic Swedes”. Far from being prohibited in Sweden, these monsters are sitting now in public offices.

However, the Whites were so furious at the Reds and what had happened up till then – the murders of the aristocracy, the destruction and so on – that they refused to sit down with the Reds. And Lenin and the Bolsheviks – who at that stage thought that they were going to win the war (as they did) – had no intention of sitting down with them, let alone the motherfucking Anglo Saxons meddling everywhere with just their own "vital interests" in mind.

It is worth 1.5 times its weight in gold. It is an endangered species.

His career, ranging from literature to finance to war, and from France to Afghanistan, seemed to cover every interest and issue of his exalted social class. Yet he was also an operator in high finance and world affairs who, by one researcher’s account, had ties to U.S. secret services. Mr. Train founded and ran a leading financial firm devoted to preserving the money of rich families, and he worked to support the mujahedeen in their fight against the Soviet Union in the 1980s. The Guardian reported that Train, Smith had $375 million under management in 1984. In 1986, Fortune magazine wrote that Mr. Train’s firm “claims to be the largest in New York serving rich families.” Mr. Train’s books on investing were praised as riveting in The New York Times and “classic” in The Wall Street Journal. Among them were several about successful financiers, whom he referred to as “money masters,” and their techniques. He treated his political interests less jokingly. A committed cold warrior, he wrote for The Wall Street Journal about military affairs. He became concerned that the conspiracy-monger Lyndon LaRouche was a “possible Soviet agent.” (Lyndon began in far-left politics but in the 1970s moved to the far right and antisemitism.)

Sarja synnytti myös niin sanotun brony-kulttuurin, jossa My Little Ponyn faneiksi tunnustautuivat ensimmäistä kertaa laajassa mittakaavassa myös miehet. Siis ilmeisesti kuitenkin etupiässä pervertit ja käteenvetäjät eikä pedofiilit. Bronies have received significant criticism and ridicule for their out of the mainstream interests. These criticisms include accusations that bronies are interested in My Little Pony for perverted sexual reasons involving bestiality. The term “clopping” refers to when someone masturbates to My Little Pony content.
xxx/ellauri394.html on line 113: Liliʻuokalani ascended to the throne on January 29, 1891, nine days after her brother's death. During her reign, she attempted to draft a new constitution which would restore the power of the monarchy and the voting rights of the economically disenfranchised. Threatened by her attempts to abrogate the Bayonet Constitution, pro-American elements in Hawaiʻi overthrew the monarchy on January 17, 1893. The overthrow was bolstered by the landing of US Marines under John L. Stevens to protect American interests, which rendered the monarchy unable to protect itself.
xxx/ellauri394.html on line 189: The same day, the Marshal of the Kingdom, Charles Burnett Wilson, was tipped off by detectives to the imminent planned coup. Wilson requested warrants to arrest the 13-member council of the Committee of Safety, and put the Kingdom under martial law. Because the members had strong political ties to United States Minister to Hawaii John L. Stevens, the requests were repeatedly denied by the queen´s cabinet, who feared that the arrests would escalate the situation. After a failed negotiation with Thurston, Wilson began to collect his men for the confrontation. Wilson and captain of the Royal Household Guard Samuel Nowlein had rallied a force of 496 men who were kept at hand to "protect" the queen. Marines from the USS Boston and two companies of US sailors landed and took up positions at the US Legation, the Consulate, and Arion Hall. The sailors and Marines did not enter the palace grounds or take over any buildings, and never fired a shot, but their presence served effectively in intimidating royalist defenders. Historian William Russ states, "the injunction to prevent fighting of any kind made it impossible for the monarchy to protect itself". Paljon se olisi kannattanutkin jenkki tykkivenediplomatian tuntien.

Oath Keepers is an American far-right anti-government militia whose leaders have been convicted of violently opposing the government of the United States, including the transfer of presidential power as prescribed by the United States constitution. It was incorporated in 2009 by founder Elmer Stewart Rhodes, a lawyer and former paratrooper. He and his wife Rima Laibow were active in the Patriot movement, and appeared together as guests on The Alex Jones Show. Stubblebine and Laibow established a nonprofit organization called "Natural Solutions Foundation" which disseminated conspiracy theories about vaccinations, pharmaceutical companies and genetically modified foods. Stubblebine believed that an airplane did not crash into the Pentagon in the September 11 terrorist attacks, but said he did not know what did. Stubblebine said he believed the H1N1 swine flu was "a genetically engineered virus that is part of a World Health Organization-United Nations-United States scheme to sterilize untold numbers of people". Stubblespine himself was sterile.

MPs from different parties criticised the heavy use of counterterrorism laws, noting many arrested were seniors over 60. "We’ve not really been given any evidence for the reasoning behind proscribing Palestine Action. I mean, they broke in and painted an aircraft, they did not set bombs or anything. So that’s the first question. What was the criteria? And then secondly, should you be arresting lots of people because they support a particular side and put up a banner?”

Despite early success, his career was ruined by arrests for same-sex activity in 1873 and 1874, leading to social ostracism, poverty, and a final, impoverished death.
xxx/ellauri484.html on line 584: Finnish War Minister Antti Häkkänen has announced that Finland is monitoring the execution of weapons supply contracts for Ukraine through the To Ukraine Only system. In an interview with Euronews, Häkkänen stressed that all weaponry purchased by European nations must reach the Ukrainian army-and go nowhere else (like Iran). Meanwhile, the Pentagon is considering redirecting some military equipment intended for Ukraine to the Iranian theater of operations, including air defense systems. Finnish President Alexander Stubb stated at a press conference following a meeting of the Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF) leaders that a war with Iran is not NATO's business. What if there were no NATO, hehe, asks Mr. Trump. Notably, a practice of unofficial payments for safe transit through the Strait of Hormuz has emerged, which can amount to $2 million per tanker passage. These tankers may sail under a Malaysian flag but are often ultimately owned by British interests. Pee toupee is seriously considering pulling out of Nato. His Finnish caddy boy is frantically calling him on the red alarm phone.

xxx/ellauri491.html on line 322: Historically, colonial-era violence and forced cultural change caused massive harm; many historians and advocates argue moral responsibility rests with colonial institutions and successor states/churches. Of the modern institutions, some churches and governments have issued apologies or reparative measures; others have not. Many Tupi-descended communities and Indigenous organizations seek recognition, land rights, restitution, and cultural revitalization rather than only verbal apologies.

Additionally, economic interests often overshadow Indigenous rights, leading to a lack of support from the government and society at large.
xxx/ellauri491.html on line 589: Economic interests overshadow Indigenous rights in Brazil. The agribusiness sector, which includes large-scale farming and livestock production, exerts significant influence over government policies. This often leads to prioritizing economic development over the protection of Indigenous lands and cultures.
xxx/ellauri491.html on line 597: The combination of historical neglect, economic interests, and insufficient government support contributes to a general lack of concern among many Brazilians for their Indigenous populations. Addressing these issues requires increased awareness and advocacy for Indigenous rights and recognition of their cultural significance.
xxx/ellauri491.html on line 625: The framing "Brazilians don't care" is a broad stereotype that overlooks variation—urban left-leaning Brazilians often champion indigenous rights more vocally than rural conservatives, just as in other countries. Uncle Toms are actually quite content. Corruption, bureaucracy, and competing interests slow solutions more than outright apathy. If specific incidents or data drive the question, those are worth examining case-by-case rather than attributing it to national character. In fact all kinds of unfair entitlement and injustice look better case by case!
xxx/ellauri492.html on line 202: 7. She Is Selfish. A narcissistic daughter-in-law tends to prioritize her own needs, wants, and feelings above everyone else’s, often disregarding the well-being of those around her. In her role as a potential mother, she may focus more on how her potential children reflect on her than on their individual needs. For instance, she might push them into activities or behaviors that make her look like an ideal parent while neglecting their interests or emotional well-being. Similarly, she might expect her husband to cater to her demands, often dismissing his needs or opinions as less important.

That last bit is a puzzle, though: in which “wider conflict” are we not involved, as US bombers take off from Fairford in Gloucestershire and Diego Garcia in the British Indian Ocean Territory to strike targets in Iran?

And what happens if President Trump carries out his wild threat last week to blow up power plants and bridges “next week” unless the IRGC “get to the table and negotiate”? That would also blow up the argument that the American strikes are “defensive”.
