# Moses Rischin

Moses Rischin (1925-2020) was an American historian, author, lecturer, editor, and emeritus professor of history at San Francisco State University. He coined the phrase new Mormon history in a 1969 article of the same name.
Rischin is considered an authority on American ethnic and immigration history and a pioneer in the field of American Jewish history. Historian Selma Berrol, however, has challenged the minimal treatment Rischin has given to the tensions between earlier German Jews and later Russian Jews in America.

## Biography

Rischin was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York City. His undergraduate studies were at Brooklyn College. Harvard University awarded him a Ph.D. in 1957.
Ruschin became a professor at San Francisco State University in 1964. In addition to his professorship, he sat on the board for the Journal of American Ethnic History and on the council of the American Jewish History Society. During the Monica Lewinsky scandal, Rischin was a signatory of "Historians in Defense of the Constitution" wherein 400 historians criticized efforts to impeach President Bill Clinton.
He was the longtime director of the Western Jewish History Center, at the Judah L. Magnes Museum, from its founding in 1967; from 2005 until approximately 2010, an annual lecture was given there in his name.
A collection of historical essays was published in Rischin's honor in 1996.
A character in the 1967 novel Meyer Meyer by Helen Hudson may have been partly modeled after him.

# Bloom Site

The Bloom Site, designated by the Smithsonian trinomial 39HS1, is an archaeological site in Hanson County, South Dakota. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1964.
The site is located in the watershed of the James River. It contains the remains of a prehistoric fortified site, which was last inhabited about 1000 CE. Archaeologists have assigned it to the Lower James phase or Initial Middle Missouri phase of the Middle Missouri tradition. The site is one of four sites that form part of this phase that exhibit fairly intensive usage patterns, and differ in their ceramics from surrounding sites. The region was largely abandoned about 1300, in part due to the relatively poor quality of the land, which contributed to a sparse settlement pattern at the time. Finds at the site include the remains of blue-winged teal.
At the time of the landmark designation in 1964, it was stated:
   A well-preserved example of a prehistoric fortified Over Focus Indian site (c. 1000), the ancestors of the Mandan Indians may have lived here. About 25 depressions mark the locations of rectangular houses. Prior to their destruction by cultivation, some 50 burial mounds, ranging up to 200 feet in diameter and from 3 to 10 feet high, also marked the site.

# William Corbet

William Corbet (17 August 1779 – 12 August 1842) was an Anglo-Irish soldier in the service of France. In September 1798 he accompanied Napper Tandy in an aborted French mission to Ireland in support of the United Irish insurrection. After two years of incarceration, he escaped from Ireland and served in the campaigns of Napoleon reaching the rank of colonel. In 1831, under the July Monarchy, he was employed in the French expedition to Greece. He returned to France in 1837, retiring with the rank of Major-General.

## Ireland and the 1798 Rebellion

He was born in Ballythomas, County Cork as a branch of the Corbet family an Anglo-Irish Protestant family. In 1798, as a member of the United Irishmen, he was expelled from Trinity College Dublin with Robert Emmet and others for treasonable activities, and went instead to Paris. In September of the same year, he joined a French military force under Napper Tandy with the rank of Captain and sailed from Dunkirk with arms and ammunition for Ireland. The expedition had to turn back following the defeat of General Humbert and arriving in Hamburg they were handed over to the British authorities and taken to Ireland, where they were imprisoned in Kilmainham Jail.

## Service under Napoleon

Corbet escaped in 1803 and returned to France. He was appointed professor of English at the military college of St Cyr. Later that year he became a captain in the Irish Legion. Following the death of his brother Thomas (who was also in the Legion) in a duel with another officer, he was transferred to the 70th Regiment of the line, where he served in Massena's expedition to Portugal, and distinguished himself in the retreat from Torres Vedras and the battle of Sabugal. After the battle of Salamanca he was appointed chef de bataillon of the 47th regiment and served until 1813 when he was summoned to Germany to join the staff of Marshal Marmont. He served at the battles of Lutzen, Bautzen, Dresden and others and was made a commander of the Legion of Honour. In December 1814, he was naturalised as a French citizen. In 1815, after the abdication of Napoleon he was promoted to colonel and chief of staff to General d'Aumont at Caen.

## Morea expedition

In the period of the Bourbon Restoration, his friendship with the opposition leader, General Foy, placed him under some suspicion, but in 1828 he was selected by Marshal Maison to accompany him on an expedition against Ibrahim Pasha in Morea, Greece. After serving as governor of Navarino, Messinia, and Nafplio, he relieved Argos from the attack of Kolocotronis, who was then acting in the interest of Russia and Count Capo d'Istria, and defeated him.

## Last years

In 1837 he returned to France where, with the rank of Major-General, he was commander in the region of Calvados. He died at Saint-Denis in 1842.
The Irish novelist Maria Edgeworth based the main theme of her novel Ormond on Corbet's 1803 escape from Kilmainham.

# Alex Epstein (Israeli writer)

Alex Epstein (Hebrew: אלכס אפשטיין, born 1971, Saint Petersburg) is an Israeli writer, known for his micro stories. He moved to Israel at the age of eight and lived with his family in the city of Lod. Epstein received his first publishing contract from Zamora-Bitan when he was only 23. He has since published three novels and eight collections of stories in Hebrew, as well as numerous pieces in English-language journals including Ploughshares, The Kenyon Review, Guernica, JuxtaProse Literary Magazine, Zeek, Electric Literature, The Guardian, and The Collagist. His translations in Electric Literature were illustrated by renowned Israeli artist and animator, David Polonsky. Epstein has twice received the Israeli Prime Minister's Prize for Authors and Poets (2003; 2016). Epstein lives in Tel Aviv and has served as a writer-in-residence for the International Writing Program at the University of Iowa, and as a Schusterman Family Foundation Artist-in-Residence at the University of Denver in Denver, Colorado (2010). In 2010 he took part of the PEN World Voices Festival in New York, he was featured in a panel with other writers such as Claire Messud, Lorraine Adams, Norman Rush, Yiyun Li and Aleksandar Hemon.
Alex Epstein's very brief stories (some of them as short as one sentence) have been described as examples of the "philosophical, or allegorical short-short story", one of the primary types of short story common to contemporary Hebrew writing. In a National Post review of Epstein's second English-language collection, writer Ian McGillis said that Epstein's works invited comparison to both "contemporary McSweeney's-style pranksters and the august lineage of Kafka, Borges and Bruno Schulz". Likewise, The Forward named Epstein "Israel's Borges." Epstein's work has been translated into numerous languages, including English, French, Portuguese and Russian. American publisher Clockroot Books published two translated collections of his work, Blue Has No South (2010) and Lunar Savings Time (2011). His second collection was widely and well-reviewed in Publishers Weekly, Three Percent, The Millions, Words Without Borders, and elsewhere. An experimentalist both in terms of narrative and format, Epstein's literature app "True Legends" was made available in 2014 and reviewed by the LA Times. Israel's premier daily newspaper, Haaretz, regularly publishes his stories under the title "Ktsartsarim" (short-shorts). The English Haaretz has also featured his work. His microfiction has been the subject of at least one peer-reviewed academic article in Shofar (2015), "The Shape of Time in Microfiction: Alex Epstein and the Search for Lost Time."

# Lord Darnley

Lord Darnley is a noble title associated with a Scottish Lordship of Parliament, first created in 1356 for the family of Stewart of Darnley and tracing a descent to the Dukedom of Richmond in England. The title's name refers to Darnley in Scotland. Outside the Peerage of Scotland, another Earldom of Darnley was created in the Peerage of Ireland in 1729.

## Early history

The first baron was Sir John Stewart of Darnley. His descendant, John Stewart, 1st Earl of Lennox, was created Earl of Lennox in 1488. Matthew Stewart, 4th Earl of Lennox (1516–1571), was the father of Henry Stuart, Lord Darnley (1545–1567) (later created Duke of Albany), better known as "Lord Darnley", a courtesy title, his father holding that title, who became the husband of Mary, Queen of Scots, and thus father of King James VI and I (1566–1625).
Together with Lord Ruthven and others, Darnley openly murdered David Rizzio in Holyrood Palace in March 1566. Mary thereafter distanced herself from Darnley.
On 10 February 1567, Darnley died when his residence was destroyed by a bomb whilst his wife, Mary, Queen of Scots, attended a party for the wedding of her servant Bastian Pagez. Darnley and his groom were found dead at the scene with marks on their necks (possibly they were strangled) and next to them lay a knife with which they had been stabbed. The suspected murderer, James Hepburn, 4th Earl of Bothwell, married Mary one month after he was acquitted and released from jail.

## Later history

With the elevation of the Earldom of Lennox to a dukedom in 1581 the barony of Darnley retained its link with Lennox and in 1612 the Dukedom of Richmond was added to the title and remained so after its extinction and revival in 1675. The subsidiary Earldom of Darnley was revived at the same time.
