    http://web.uvic.ca/vv/content_files/qvic.htm
    ictoria's ascension to the throne of Great Britain and Ireland seemed remote when she was born in 1819. She was, after all, the daughter of the fourth son of George III. Two of her uncles served as king but had no surviving legitimate offspring, so on the death of William IV in 1837, Victoria became Queen of England at the age of eighteen. She reigned for over 61 years,the longest reign of any British Monarch. She had a brief romantic friendship with the then Prime Minister Lord Melbourne, but met Prince Albert of Saxony in 1839 when he made a state visit to the English court, and proposed to him five days later. They were married on February 10, 1840. Albert was the staid partner, "extremely strait laced and a great stickler for morality" while the young Victoria was "rather the other way." The prince disliked London and late parties and royal occasions became models of decorum. Their first child, Victoria (called Vicky) was born in 1840, the heir to the throne, Edward, was born in 1841. Altogether she had nine children, the last, Beatrice born in 1857. Albert became very much a partner with her in her responsibilities and with their royal relatives spread across Europe, they played a significant role in foreign affairs and an important though lesser role in domestic politics. Albert's death from typhoid in 1861 was a terrible blow to Victoria. She suffered a nervous breakdown and lived in near isolation for the next ten years, always appearing in widows weeds. She was a widow at 42, and her

    Excerpt
    The Chaucer Review

    [Access article in PDF]
    William F. Woods When Aleyn and John, the Cambridge clerks, make their way back to miller Symkyn's house, they are weary and wet, having spent the day chasing their horse Bayard about the fen, and this is when he offers them his famous invitation: Myn hous is streit, but ye han lerned art;
    Ye konne by argumentes make a place
    A myle brood of twenty foot of space. (I 4122-24) The pithy sarcasm of these lines displays Symkyn's resentment of the clerks' education and their station in life, yet leads us to wonder whether, by "argumentes," he might be implying something in particular, some clerkly craft which would shed additional light on the action of the tale. In a passage by Albert of Saxony, a fourteenth-century Aristotelian philosopher at that great center for learned clerks, the University of Paris, we hear a distinct echo of Symkyn's words. Referring to the infinite extent of the divine power, Albert says God "could place a body as large as the world inside a millet seed and he could achieve this in the same manner as Christ is lodged in the host, that is, without any condensation, rarefaction, or penetration of bodies. Within that millet seed, God could create a space of 100 leagues, or 1,000, or however many are imaginable. A man inside that millet seed could traverse all those many leagues simply by walking from one extremity of the millet seed to the other."

    Up in the Clouds
    by R.M. Ballantyne
    Chapter One. Balloon Voyages. Treats of Early Efforts to Fly, etc. It is man's nature to soar intellectually, and it seems to have been his ambition from earliest ages to soar physically. Every one in health knows, or at some period of life must have known, that upward bounding of the spirit which induces a longing for the possession of wings, that the material body might be wafted upwards into those blue realms of light, which are so attractive to the eye and imagination of poor creeping man that he has appropriately styled them the heavens. Man has envied the birds since the world began. Who has not watched, with something more than admiration, the easy gyrations of the sea-mew, and listened, with something more than delight, to the song of the soaring lark? To fly with the body as well as with the mind, is a wish so universal that the benignant Creator Himself seems to recognize it in that most attractive passage in Holy Writ, wherein it is said that believers shall "mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint."

Implicit in this definition is the artist's ability to elicit the subject's 'inner presence' or 'character.' This definition, which has evolved over the ages, would not have been understood by the ancient Greeks, whose full-length portrait statues (of which we have very few examples) were idealized and depicted subjects as scholars, statesmen, warriors, high priests etc., but not as individuals with unique facial features. In contrast, the Romans produced portrait head busts and coins with a familial likeness of emperors and their relatives. Roman painters were capable of producing life like portraits as evidenced by funeral and wall painting from Pompeii (although we have no way of knowing if these renditions accurately reflected the individuals depicted).
    Surprisingly, many Italian painters of the early Renaissance including Fra Filippo Lippi (1406-1469) reverted to the ancients' use of profile in portraits of women. The use of profile was felt to flatter the sitter since it down-played her physicality and embodied or portrayed beauty, virtuousness and high morals, all attributes respected throughout the centuries. The depiction of women in profile continued well into the 16th century. However, the portraits of Leonardo Da Vinci (1452-1519) stood in contrast to this style. In his genius he presented enigmatic women (such as the Mona Lisa) en face while searching for universal or idealized beauty. Over the next several hundred years interest in women as subjects waxed and waned as court, state and ecclesiastical portraiture, mainly of famous and important men, gained ascendancy.

This is a monumental book: 679 densely printed pages of main text and 94 pages of two no less important appendices. The Australian price adds further to its monumental character. But, as with every monument, the question is: who is it to? Its subject matter or its author? A distinguished and prodigious historian of medieval science, Grant belongs to the lineage of Duhem (1985), Maier (1982) and Clagett (1979). This book epitomises his scholarly career and devotion to the exploration of a truly fascinating field of cultural production: Latin Christendom. Grant states that it took him fifteen years to write the book and it is clear that the whole of his scholarly research career is invested in it.

    The word Christmas was first used in the eleventh century. December 25 is Christmas Day. Jesus Christ was born on this day. The first Christmas carol was written in 368. The song was Jesus, Light of All the Nations. It was written by St. Hilary of Poitiers. The custom of decorating a tree at Christmas started in Germany. It was brought to England in 1841 by Prince Albert of Saxony. He was the husband of Queen Victoria. The custom spread around Europe in the 1880s. The tradition was brought to the United States by German settlers. An evergreen tree is a symbol of eternal life. Another Christmas symbol is the mistletoe. Some people try to sneak a kiss under the mistletoe. The Romans saw the mistletoe as a symbol of peace. Holly leaves are popular in homemade Christmas wreaths. It is believed that the crown of thorns worn by Christ was made of holly leaves. Another popular Christmas decoration is the poinsettia. Dr. Joel Poinsett discovered the flower in Mexico in 1828. In Central America, the poinsettia is called the flower of the Holy Night. Candles have also become a part of Christmas. Burning candles became a cherished tradition in Ireland. At one time the Irish were not allowed to hold public mass. People would place candles in their windows. They hoped a passing priest would see the candle and stop to say mass. Today, lights are used to decorate homes and public buildings.

    A Face-Lift and a New Mind-Set for Vienna's Albertina Mention the name Albertina in New York or Paris, and you might get a flicker of recognition, but little more. Although this tradition-bound Viennese institution houses one of the world's premier collections of graphic art, from Michelangelo to Egon Schiele, it has never generated a "limelight" public image — but that is about to change. "People think of the Albertina as old, dark and dusty, with the floors beginning to crack," said Klaus Albrecht Schröder, who took over in 1999, five years after the faded 18th-century state museum closed for what was supposed to be a routine refurbishment. "For the last half century a lot of the place was just used for storage." The Viennese press, which has nicknamed the director "Albert-Diva" and "Chancellor Schröder," raised concerns that the museum's sponsors, who contributed about USD 17 million of the total price tag, might influence programming.
    The Albertina reopened its doors on March 14 to good reviews. "In spite of all the high-tech installations," the daily newspaper Die Presse noted, "the Albertina has conserved its old-fashioned aura." The German art and architecture critic, Hanno Rauterberg, wrote: "The temple has opened itself to the masses. But Schröder has not betrayed the art." For Vienna the event marks something of a coup.

In the Gold Cabinet, the smallest of the staterooms, gilders used a special "Albertina" mix of 23-carat gold plus one-carat silver and copper to renew the extravagant wall paneling to its original sheen, while the Hall of the Muses, a former Habsburg ballroom, has breathtaking newly restored sculptures of Apollo and the Nine Muses

    Albert II
    (Albrecht II.) Eighteenth Archbishop of Magdeburg in Saxony, date of birth unknown; d. 1232. He was the son of Gunther III, Count of Kevernburg, and began his studies at Hildesheim, completing them later at Paris and Bologna. At an early age he was made a prebendary of the Magdeburg cathedral, and in 1200 was appointed Provost of the Cathedral Chapter by Innocent III . Through the influence of the Bishop of Halberstadt, he was nominated as the successor of Ludolph, Archbishop of Magdeburg (d.1205). After receiving the papal approbation, which was at first withheld, partly on account of those who had taken part in his election and partly on his account of his attitude towards Philip of Suabia, Albert proceeded to Rome, where he was consecrated bishop by the Pope (Dec., 1206) and received the pallium . He entered Magdeburg on Palm Sunday, 15 April, 1207, and five days later a conflagration destroyed many of the buildings in the city, including his own cathedral. One of his first cares was to repair the damage wrought by fire, and in 1208 he laid the corner-stone of the present cathedral, which, though completed 156 years later, serves as his most fitting memorial. He likewise rebuilt a large part of the city, and is regarded as the founder of the Neustadt. Magdeburg was also indebted to him for several valuable privileges which he obtained from Otto IV after the death of Philip of Suabia. Albert did much to further the interest of religion. He established the Dominicans (1224), and the Franciscans (1225) in the city, and also founded a convent for women in honour of

He was rewarded (1134) for his share in Lothair's first Italian campaign with the North March. Calling himself margrave of Brandenburg as early as 1136 or 1142, he used the North March as a base for campaigns against the Wends, a pagan Slavic people. Invested (1138) with Saxony by Conrad III, Lothair's successor, he was expelled from the dukedom by Henry the Proud , whom Conrad had deprived of the duchy. Albert later made peace (1142) with Henry the Lion , son of Henry the Proud. He took part in the Wendish Crusade of 1147, but preferred more conciliatory methods of dealing with his pagan neighbors. As a result he inherited (1150) Brandenburg from its last Wendish prince. Albert's achievements in Christianizing and Germanizing NE Germany were important.

    Albert (though present) was never very common during the Middle Ages or afterwards, lasting in rural England until the 17th century (as Halbert).
    In the 19th century, Albert was reintroduced to England via Germany and the German connections of the royal family, especially when Queen Victoria married Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha in 1840.
    It was especially popular among the lower classes of Britain.
    Albert has declined in the 20th century.
