    by
    Thomas C. Tirado, Ph.D.
    Professor History
    Millersville University Background to the Age of Discovery: One cannot begin to understand Christopher Columbus without understanding the world into which he was born. The 15 th century was a dynamic century, a century of change. There were many historical events throughout Western Europe that impacted society profoundly. Directly affecting the future explorer much closer to home, however, were three momentous events in and around the Mediterranean:
    1) the Conquest of Ceuta in North Africa by the Portuguese in 1415
    2) the Fall of Constantinople to the Muslim Turks in 1453, and
    3) the defeat of Muslim Granada by the Christian Spaniards in 1492. All three events were driven by the centuries-long conflict between the Christians and the Muslims. Ceuta:
    High on the pantheon of names of important figures of the Age of Discovery is Henry the Navigator's. He is considered by many historians to have provided not only the inspiration for the Age but much of the practical knowledge accumulated over decades of trial and error in developing ocean-going ships, sails, and navigational aids, some even borrowed from the Arabs. The Caravel, which came to be identified with this period of exploration, was a product of his assiduous search for a better ocean-going vessel. Henry contributed significantly to the psychology of discovery and helped to whet the appetite of those who were daring enough to venture out in search of riches.

    65. Abdullah Ibrahim-biography
    Perhaps the most gifted African musician working within the fused ancestral influences from the artistic royalty of American Jazz and African musics.

    CIRCLING THE MOUNTAIN I. Abdullah Ibrahim's
    Story . . . so far
    "Mountain" is both source and metaphor for the sacred message given to people
    from the heights of cosmic creativity.
    Perhaps the most gifted African musician working within the fused ancestral streams of African+American music,
    Abdullah Ibrahim, formerly known as Dollar Brand, is a pianist, composer, arranger, band leader and teacher. He is among the preeminent proponents of music as a healing and transformative tool. He has brought to bear upon his music influences from the artistic royalty of American Jazz and African musics. The thrust of his gifts is an expression of this lineage. His creative intention has been secured through his deep Faith. Abdullah Ibrahim's understanding of the far-reaching roots of the healing traditions of both music and people's art is comprehensive . Many who have encountered Abdullah Ibrahim would also call him a teacher...including many of those who make up his worldwide audience. There is no escaping the transformative power of his music should one approach it with receptivity. In this respect he is both teacher and student, standing as exemplar within the chain of transmission which posits that every person is being inexorably drawn home and is capable of both openness and activation, of being taught and teaching, of following the path and leading others along it.

    68. Great Performances: Free To Dance - Biographies - Alvin Ailey
    Ailey created the AAADT to feature the talents of his AfricanAmerican colleagues, Brief biographies Alvin Ailey. DANCE MAGAZINE (December 1958) 70.
    http://www.pbs.org/wnet/freetodance/biographies/ailey.html
    Alvin Ailey Born: January 5, 1931
    Died: December 1, 1989
    Occupation: dancer, choreographer
    Several Ailey dances established precedents for American dance. "Feast of Ashes" (1962), created for the Harkness Ballet, is acknowledged as the first successful "pointe" ballet choreographed by a modern dancer. In 1966 Ailey contributed dances for the New York Metropolitan Opera's inaugural production at Lincoln Center, Samuel Barber's "Antony and Cleopatra." In 1970 he created "The River" for American Ballet Theatre. Set to an original score commissioned from Duke Ellington, this ballet convincingly fused theatrical jazz dancing and ballet technique. In 1971 Ailey created the staging for Leonard Bernstein's rock-influenced "Mass", which opened the newly built Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. Major distinctions and honors followed Ailey throughout his choreographic career, which spanned the creation of more than 50 dances for his own company, American Ballet Theater, the Joffrey Ballet, the Paris Opera Ballet, the London Festival Ballet, and the Royal Danish Ballet. Among his many awards were honorary doctorates in fine arts from Princeton University, Bard College, Adelphi University, and Cedar Crest College; a United Nations Peace Medal, and an NAACP Spingarn Medal, in 1976. In 1988 he was celebrated by the president of the United States for a lifetime of achievement in the arts at the Kennedy Center Honors.

    http://www.unm.edu/~hist/fac/spidle/con_spidle_crs.html
    History 102 - Western Civilization Since 1648 This survey of Western Civilization's history in the "modern" periodthat is, since the mid-seventeenth centuryreviews its various dimensions over that 350 year span. The course has a clear political and economic emphasis, but it also reflects something of a "great man/woman" approach to history, an admittedly "old-fashioned" perspective. Social, diplomatic, and intellectual themes are not ignored, but do receive slightly less attention. Mechanically, the class involves two hour examinations plus a final; it is also distinguished by a series of daily quizzes designed to help the student "keep up" with things. History 220 - The "Sport of Kings:" An Historical Approach
    History 320 - History of Horse Racing
    With a chronological extension back to at least the ancient Greeks and worldwide geographical dimensions, horse racing is one of the world's most popular and important sports. In this survey the student will be exposed to the vocabulary of breeding and racing;
    their structure and organization; and the historical development of the industry and sport. Racing buffs and pure horse lovers are welcome, but the course will be an "honest" one, focusing on the internal history of the sport and on its place within society at large.

    Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... A > St. Ambrose A B C D ... Z
    St. Ambrose
    Bishop of Milan from 374 to 397; born probably 340, at Trier , Arles, or Lyons ; died 4 April, 397. He was one of the most illustrious Fathers and Doctors of the Church , and fitly chosen, together with St. Augustine St. John Chrysostom , and St. Athanasius , to uphold the venerable Chair of the Prince of the Apostles in the tribune of St. Peter's at Rome. The materials for a biography of the Saint are chiefly to be found scattered through his writings, since the "Life" written after his death by his secretary, Paulinus, at the suggestion of St. Augustine, is extremely disappointing. Ambrose was descended from an ancient Roman family, which, at an early period had embraced Christianity , and numbered among its scions both Christian martyrs and high officials of State. At the time of his birth his father, likewise named Ambrosius, was Prefect of Gallia, and as such ruled the present territories of France, Britain, and Spain, together with Tingitana in Africa. It was one of the four great prefectures of the Empire, and the highest office that could be held by a subject. Trier , Arles, and Lyons St. Leo
