Abstract:
William Harlow Reed was born in Hartford, Connecticut in 1848. His adventurous spirit led him to the Rocky Mountain West to take positions guiding, hunting game, and fighting Indians. In 1877, while working as a foreman for the Union Pacific Railroad at Como, Wyoming, he accidentally discovered large bones on the nearby ridge. These specimens, reported to O.C. Marsh at Yale University, heralded him into a career in vertebrate paleontology that he would pursue for the next 38 years. Although frustrated by certain aspects of field work and lack of recognition as a field paleontologist, he was a diligent and loyal collector for Marsh. He gave this same dedication in later years to W. C. Knight at the University of Wyoming and W. J. Holland at the Carnegie Museum. Although not formally educated in the sciences, Reed's desire to learn, interest in natural phenomena, and association with the notable paleontologists of his time, allowed him to gain a background in geology and paleontology. After more than 25 years of significant discoveries of dinosaurs, ichthyosaurs, plesiosaurs, pterosaurs, mammals, and cycads in Wyoming, Reed was given the position as curator of the museum and instructor in geology at the University of Wyoming in 1904. He held this position until his death in 1915.

Abstract:
The article philologically analyses the text in the interpretation of Surah Al Fatihah by KH. Suhaimin Rofiudin (1919-1982) entitled Tafsir Al-Qur’an Al Karim Berbahasa Indonesia. It reveals how the biography reconstruction of Suhaimi Rofi’uddin who was the author of Surah al-Fatihah interpretation manuscript. This study is about how to provide a philological reconstruction of Suhaimi’s manuscript history. Third, this research discusses how the text of the manuscript was influenced by some factors. By using the philological approach in the step of searching for supporting data, also using ‘ulum al-Qur’an as an analysis of the method used by the scriptwriter to understand Surah Al-Fatihah, in addition, to use the discourse of Foucault also serves as an auxiliary tool to examine the history of the rules of interpretation used by the author. From Suhaimi’s understanding, the interpretation of Surah al-Fatihah doesn’t same with the earlier interpretation which discusses about the spiritual tradition of Qurisy tribe, but Suhaimi’s manuscript is about West hegemony. This textual image is caused by the factor of Suhaimis’s contextual background about Holland colonialitation and the Six-Day war between Arab and Israel.

Abstract:
Early Modern European culture abounded in various forms of public controversies. These included university debates, literary dialogues, printed polemical works, etc. The Reformation and the resulting confessional conflicts added numerous religious disputations. Religious disputations were closely linked to conversions to the ‘true faith’ and could be addressed to either national audiences or to relatively small groups. How were these ‘private disputations’ perceived and described by those who witnessed such events? In the 16th–17th centuries the European audience was well versed in the arguments of both Catholic and Protestant theologians. What, then, could be considered a victory when almost every argument of the disputants was predictable? The article presents an analysis of a disputation narrative — the story of the debates between an Anglican divine, William Chillingworth, and a Jesuit, Thomas Holland, which were held in 1634 at the house of Elizabeth Cary, Viscountess Falkland. The disputation was organized to help persuade the daughters of Lady Falkland, newly converted Catholics and future nuns Anne, Lucy, Elizabeth and Mary Cary, who experienced a religious crisis. The disputation narrative was part of the biography of Lady Falkland written by her daughters. The story was closely connected to the narrative of the conversion of the mother and the daughters to Catholicism. The process was presented as an “intellectual conversion” through rational arguments. However, the story of the disputation focuses not on the arguments but on the behavior of all the participants, and on their emotions. This is a reflection of the views of the 17th-century polemicists regarding the role of emotions and passions in the process of religious conversion and the search for truth.

Abstract:
Shortly after Locke’s death, Jean Le Clerc began collecting materials for the short biography he was planning to publish in the periodical he edited, the Bibliothèque Choisie. He had known Locke in Holland but had very little knowledge of his earlier career in England, and he sought information from some of his English friends. One of these was Lady Masham, who sent a long letter detailing what she knew or had been able to find out from some of Locke’s other friends. One of the things she mentioned was that Locke had once received, but had turned down, the offer of a pardon: After the Death of King Charles, Mr. Penn (with whom Mr. Locke had been long before acquainted in the Universitie, and than whom no man did ever more generously make use of Court Favour for the Service of others) undertook to procure a Pardon for Mr. Locke of King James and (as I am told) it was actually offer’d him, but he would not accept of it as not owning that he needed it. Le Clerc was deeply appreciative for information of this kind, and in his biography, published a few months later, he repeated Lady Masham’s account almost word for word: Après la mort du Roi Charles II, qui arriva le 16. de Fevrier 1685. Mr. Penn, que Mr. Locke avoit connu dans l’Université, & qui employa avec beaucoup de génerosité le credit, qu’il avoit alors auprè du Roi Jaques, enterprit d’en obtenir un pardon pour lui, & l’auroit en effet obtenu; si Mr. Locke n’avoit répondu qu’il n’avoit que faire de pardon, puis qu’il n’avoit commis aucun crime. Le Clerc’s account was quickly translated into English and was published the following year. During the remainder of the eighteenth century many further short biographies of Locke were published, but these contained nothing new, in most cases being simply paraphrases or abridgements of Le Clerc’s account. It was not until 1829, when Lord King published The Life and Letters of John Locke, that any new material came to light. King accepted Le Clerc’s account of Penn’s efforts on Locke’s behalf, but he added that Locke had also received similar help from the Earl of Pembroke. In support of this he published, from Locke’s papers, a letter from Pembroke, written in August 1685, which, though it did not specifically mention a pardon, certainly did show that Pembroke had spoken to James II on Locke’s behalf and had received assur- ances from him. King also printed a letter from another of Locke’s friends, David Thomas, which mentioned that James Tyrrell had told him that ‘Will. Penn hath moved the King for a pardon for you, which was as readily granted’. This letter was dated November 1687, but King did not explain how the pardon Locke had now been granted related to the one he had supposedly turned down two years previously.

Abstract:
The stories of K. Sergienko’s books make up the wanderings of heroes, as a rule, storytellers and participants in the events of personal and national history. In stories for teenagers, the ad-ventures of the heroes have the character of their initiation: “Kees Admiral Tulipovˮ (“Кеес Адмирал Тюльпановˮ), “Take us away, Pegasus!ˮ (“Увези нас, Пегас!ˮ), “Notebook bound in moroccoˮ (“Тетрадь в сафьяновом перплётеˮ). Or they correspond to the genetically related story about the prodigal son (“House on the Hillˮ – “Дом на гореˮ). In both cases, the characters' freedom of movement is largely motivated by their orphanhood. Most often, the main characters, young and old, travel incognito. This motive is introduced in the first sto-ry and becomes one of the plot-forming ones. An obligatory component of almost all books is the mystery of the female character. There are several secrets in “Borodino Awakeningˮ (“Бородинское пробуждениеˮ): for the main character – the secret of Berestov; he himself, who became Berestov in the events on the eve and during Borodin and does not call himself in the present tense; Natasha's secret; hoax Leppich. The unnamed hero of “The White Rondelˮ (“Белый рондельˮ) wanders incognito. In the same row, and the secret of the origin of Nastya, and remained a secret for her (“Notebook...ˮ). “Mysteriousˮ heroines in “House on the Hillˮ. The prehistory of the appearance of the Proud in the ravine (“Good-bye, ravineˮ) remains unknown to the reader. In some stories, the secret of the place is associated with the secret of the hero. Heroes travel with companions – Kees and Red Fox, Pochivalov and Osorgin, Berestov and Listov, Mike and Morris, Mr. Writer and Mr. Kitten, etc. The complex of obligatory motives in the historical prose of Sergienko, indicated in “Kees...ˮ, includes the motive of the hero's responsibility for the fate of the country (“Borodino Awakeningˮ, “Xeniaˮ (“Ксенияˮ), etc). This motive is associated with the motive of the he-roes’ dreams of the promised land, the ideal city and the motive of sacrifice. The tulip in the first story, not yet known to the Dutch, will turn into a flower with its miracu-lous properties in a number of works. The flower-bouquet motif is especially significant in the “House on the Hillˮ. In the same story, another motive of Sergienko’s prose comes to the fore – the star motive. Some of the peripheral motives become leading in individual books (the motives of the crimson beret, Holland, Mozart and Salieri, etc.). Homelessness, the instability of the heroes existence gives them the opportunity for self-realization, the chronicle of events – grows into a biography, and then into autobiography. Most of Sergienko’s works are based on the plots of a roguish, chivalrous novel and a novel of education, complicated by other plots. The story “Porcelain Headˮ (“Фарфоровая го- ловаˮ) testifies to the writer’s search for new ways in plot construction, caused by the rethinking of the romantic position of fighting against chaotic reality and rising above it.

Abstract:
In zijn knappe biografie Koning Willem I 1772-1843 ziet Jeroen Koch in het verlicht despotisme van de vorst, dus zijn “onstuitbare drang tot vergroting van zijn macht en de ordening van de samenleving”, het belangrijkste element van verklaring voor het uiteenvallen, in 1830, van zijn Verenigd Koninkrijk der Nederlanden. Twee elementen ontbreken in Kochs verhaal: de grove fiscale uitbuiting van België, en het verzet van de Hollands-protestantse opinie tegen een versoepeling van het absolutistisch bewind, uit vrees voor het verlies van haar bevoorrechte positie tegenover de onverlichte katholieke bevolkingsmeerderheid.________A New Portrait of King William IIn his intelligent biography Koning Willem I1772-1843, Jeroen Koch sees in the sovereign’s enlightened despotism – his “insatiable urge for the expansion of his power and the regulation of society” – the most important element of explanation for the falling apart, in 1830, of his United Kingdom of the Netherlands. Two elements are missing from Koch’s narrative: the extensive fiscal exploitation of Belgium, and the opposition of Dutch Protestant opinion to relaxing absolutist government, for fear of losing its privileged position relative to the unenlightened Catholic majority of the population.

Abstract:
Abstract Most of Spinoza’s allies, editors, translators, and publishers were of Dutch background. But, in addition, several were French or French-speaking. The Hague of the late 1660s and 1670s harboured a milieu of cosmopolitan wits but in key respects the predominantly French libertinage Spinoza encountered at The Hague in later 1660s and 1670s, especially in the milieu of the famed bon vivant, moralist, and fine essayist, Saint-Évremond, constituted a very different cultural and intellectual phenomenon, from both Dutch subversive freethinking of the time and that arising in Britain and Ireland, with the beginnings of the “deist” tendency of the 1680s and 1690s. At The Hague in the 1660s, “Epicureans” in the circle of Saint-Évremond frequented high society gatherings and showed little sign of seeking to attack the existing social and political order, or even outwardly express their usually carefully masked inner rejection of the surrounding world’s “entire Christian culture.” However, a number of Huguenot refugees in Holland were drawn into Spinoza’s circle and particular attention is given here to Saint-Glain the translator of the TTP into French, Jean Maximilien Lucas, Spinoza’s supposed first biographer, and Henry Morelli.
