Book Description
The 1900 Olympic Games have been termed "The Farcical Games." The events were poorly organized and years later many of the competitors had no idea that they had actually competed in the Olympics. They only knew that they had competed in an international sporting event in Paris in 1900. No official records of the 1900 Olympics exist. Based primarily on 1900 sources, the sites, dates, events, competitors, and nations as well as the event results are compiled herein for all of the 1900 Olympic events, including archery, track and field, cricket, equestrian, fencing, soccer, pelota basque, water polo, and rowing, among other sports.

The Kingdom of God Is at Hand
Author: Theodore Kallman
Publisher: University of Georgia Press
ISBN: 0820368431
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 285
Book Description
In Kingdom of God Theodore Kallman illuminates the brief life of a Christian Socialist community founded by four menāa minister, and editor, a professor, and an engineerāon a worn-out cotton plantation just outside of Columbus, Georgia in 1896. While Christian Commonwealth only lasted until 1900, its combination of religious communitarianism and socialist ideology proved attractive to many. It was a place where women enjoyed a sort of political equality and where its schoolāopen to all white students of Muscogee Countyāemphasized a critique of private property. Kallman explains how particular brand of Tolstoyan anarchism inspired by the Russian novelistās philosophical treatise The Kingdom of God is Within You (1894) and Christās Sermon on the Mount took root in west-central Georgia and attracted attention from famous onlookers--Leo Tolstoy and Jane Addams included. In Kallman's capable hands, what appears to be merely a blip barely worth mentioning for historians of Georgia and the larger United States, instead emerges as a story that has much to teach us about Gilded Age American and provides necessary context for the surging interest in America's socialist past.

Plants and vegetation of NW Ethiopia
Author: Ib Friis
Publisher: Firenze University Press
ISBN: 8855186337
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
Pichi Sermolliās work with his more than 2750 collections of plants from nearly 150 localities on the Lake Tana expedition in Ethiopia in 1937 was interrupted by World War II, but completed in 1947 at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, and the British Museum (Natural History), UK. It resulted in preliminary accounts of the vegetation published 1938-40 and a taxonomically arranged account in 1951, all in Italian. Pichi Sermolliās observations are difficult to locate due to the imperfect maps of the time, but in this book the authors have reconstructed the sequence of the collections, georeferenced the localities, and updated the identifications of the species. By reconstructing Pichi Sermolliās observations, it is possible to draw conclusions about the vegetation and compare with a recent model of the vegetation of Ethiopia. According to this, the vegetation of the Lake Tana Basin was a complex mosaic of woodland, scrub, forest, farmland and lake shore vegetation now difficult to interpret in detail. Pichi Sermolliās study of the vegetation in the Semien Mountains demonstrated for the first time the zonation of Ericaceous woodland and Afroalpine vegetation, within which he distinguished Carex monostachya bogs, Afroalpine grasslands with Lobelia rhynchopetalum, and stony and rocky Afroalpine vegetation. This book interprets Pichi Sermolliās observations in English and compares them with modern knowledge of the region, partly obtained by the present authorsā own field work. It demonstrates how Pichi Sermolliās studies form a valuable contribution to the understanding of the Ethiopian flora and vegetation.
