# Arkady Gornfeld

Arkady Georgievich Gornfeld (Russian: Арка́дий Гео́ргиевич Го́рнфельд, IPA: ; 30 August [O.S. 18 August] 1867 – 25 March 1941) was a prominent Russian essayist, literary critic and translator, best known for a feud with dissident poet Osip Mandelstam.

## Life and work

Arkady G. Gornfeld was born in 1867 in Sevastopol, the son of a notary. After his childhood in Ukraine, he went on to study philology, literature and psychology at Kharkov University (Ukraine) and Berlin University. He then embarked on a career writing for various publications, including Russkoye Bogatstvo (Russian Wealth).
His books dealt with foreign and Russian literature, as well as music. In his assessment of Jewish-Russian literature, he argued that the shtetl writings so far had failed to reach the greatness of Tolstoy. He contributed to the Jewish Encyclopedia, which lists him as a counselor of law.

## Wrath of Lenin

In 1922, Lenin personally listed Gornfeld among a list of thinkers harmful to the Revolution, writing to his successor:
   Comrade Stalin!
   On the matter of deporting the Mensheviks, Popular Socialists, Kadets and the like from Russia, I would like to ask several questions in view of the fact that this operation, initiated before my leave, has not been completed to this day.
   [...] Peshekhonov, Miakotin, Gorenfeld? [...] I think all of them should be deported. They are more harmful than any SR [moderate socialist], because more cunning.
But unlike 120 other intellectuals deported that summer under Lenin's orders, Gornfeld remained in the Soviet Union.

## Osip Mandelstam Feud

In 1916, Gornfeld published a translation of Till Eulenspiegel, a retelling of German fables by Charles De Coster. Several years later, the publisher Land and Factory assigned the dissident poet Osip Mandelstam the task of revising it.
A misunderstanding began when the publishing house, Land and Factory, failed to let Gornfeld know about the 1928 revision. Then, in a serious printing error, Gornfeld's name was left off the title page. Instead, Mandelstam's name was on Gornfeld's work.
The publishing house issued an apology. But Gornfeld had already concluded that Mandelstam purposely stole his work. He attacked the poet in a letter to the Red Evening Gazette, likening Mandelstam to a house guest who steals a fur coat from a hangar.
Mandelstam struck back, both at Gornfeld and the “trashy” translation industry, in his book The Fourth Prose, calling Gornfeld a sickly version of Georges Charles de Heeckeren d’Anthès, the killer of his fellow poet, Pushkin.
   This paralytic d’Anthés, this uncle Monia from the Basseinaia Street . . . Uncle Gornfel'd, why did you decide to complain in the Birzhevka, that is, The Red Evening Gazette, in the Soviet year of 1929? You would have done better to weep in the clean Jewish literary waistcoat of Mr. Propper. You would have done better to relate your misfortune to the banker with sciatic nerve, kugel, and the tallith.
A bitter blow to Mandelstam's business and reputation, the “Eulenspiegel Affair” led Mandelstam to restyle himself an outlaw poet, rejected and persecuted by a corrupt literary establishment.

# Aram Karam

Aram Karam (Arabic: آرَام كَرَم; 1 July 1929 – 2 April 2023) was an Iraqi footballer, who earned a reputation for scoring goals from apparently impossible long-range situations. He was an ethnic Assyrian and Christian.
Karam was a son of a Levy soldier from Habbaniya. Aram was a striker capable of having the ball in the back of the net within a blink of an eye. After playing for various teams on RAF Hinaidi in Baghdad from 1936 in his youth, he joined Arsenal Sports Club Habbaniya in 1943 and later played for the C.C. Team and founded RAF Levy Civilian of Habbaniya.
In 1951, Aram was one of 16 players to be selected to play for Iraq’s first ever national team. He missed Iraq’s first international game against Turkey in Izmir on 6 May, which ended 7–0 to the hosts, but competed in the second game six days later against Ankara Select. Aram proved to be a valuable player on the day as he scored Iraq’s first goal and ended the game with a hat-trick but was unable to prevent a 7–5 defeat.
The next year, he joined Sharakat Nafat Al-Iraq in Kirkuk. Aram was not only the captain of the team but also the head coach. In 1954, the team won the Northern Iraqi Championship and also won 6 consecutive Middle East Oil Companies Championships under his leadership.

# Pietro Balbo

Pietro Balbo was an Italian immigrant to the United States who was born in Sala Consilina, Provincia di Salerno, Campania, Italy. Upon arrival in the United States, he lived in New York. He was the son of Natale Balbo and Rosa Spinelli. His mother remarried Salvatore Focarile.

## Murder

Balbo murdered his wife by cutting her throat at his residence. After the murder, Balbo removed earrings and a necklace from his wife's corpse. He was arrested in Wheeling, West Virginia, after fleeing. On December 11, 1879, Balbo was convicted of the murder of his wife Maria Diebaco Balbo. The death sentence was prescribed by Judge Daniels. At his sentencing, Balbo claimed self-defense.

## Sentence

Originally sentenced for execution on January 19, 1880, Balbo resided at The Tombs until his actual execution on 6 August 1880. During his time imprisoned Balbo studied English and kept a neat cell.
Balbo's appeal was argued in the court of appeals in Albany on 26 February 1880.
On 21 May 1880, Balbo was given respite by New York State Governor Alonzo B. Cornell.
The Italian minister in Washington hired a lawyer in an attempt to commute the death sentence and a petition of 45,000 signatures was gathered. At the request of the Italian Minister Alberto Blanc, Governor Cornell personally reviewed the conviction but due to the corpse robbery and attempt to flee, declined to interfere.
On August 2, 1880, Balbo wrote a farewell letter to his mother in which he mentions a sister Carmela and a brother Giovanni.

## Execution

Balbo was accompanied by Father Anacletus the night before his execution; Warden Finn was also present. Balbo slept little and was restless the entire time, weeping and praying, reciting the stations of the cross. At 530 AM his lawyer, Mr. Kintzing arrived. Shortly after 6 am Balbo accompanied by Father Anacletus, the deputy warden and two deputy sheriffs attended a catholic mass at the prison chapel where he also was given the rites of the church.
Balbo was served a final bowl of coffee at 0750 am, once the coffee was consumed Balbo asked his lawyer for the sheriff, saying he was ready. The drop was not performed correctly and Balbo convulsed on the rope. After three minutes of hanging, Balbo still had a pulse of 100, indicating death thru strangulation and not a broken neck. After 16 minutes Balbo was lowered and his body was inspected by the city coroner who returned a verdict of death. Upon instruction of his lawyer, Balbos body was transferred to the undertakers Whalen And Farretti at the intersection of Worth and Baxter Streets.
The execution was a significant event to the Italian immigrant population of New York City at the time as he was the first Italian executed in New York City.
# Abas (sophist)

Abas (Greek: Ἄβας) was an ancient Greek sophist and a rhetorician about whose life nothing is known. The Suda ascribes to him historical commentaries (in Greek ιστoρικά απoμνηατα) and a work on rhetoric (in Greek τέχνη ρητoρική). Photius in his Myrobiblion quotes from him, belonging probably to the former work, saying that Abas said the name of the wife of Candaulus in Greek mythology was not Nysai but Abro.
