Feodor Ivanovich Chaliapin (Russian: Фёдор Ива́нович Шаля́пин , "Fyodor Ivanovich Shalyapin"; ] ; February 13 [O.S. February 1] 1873 April 12, 1938) was a Russian opera singer.
 Possessing a deep and expressive bass voice, he enjoyed an important international career at major opera houses and is often credited with establishing the tradition of naturalistic acting in his chosen art form.
Stephen Báthory at Pskov or Báthory at Pskov (Polish - "Stefan Batory pod Pskowem") is an 1872 history painting by the Polish artist Jan Matejko, now in the collections of the Royal Castle in Warsaw, Poland.
 It shows people of the Russian tsar Ivan the Terrible kneeling before the Polish king Stephen Báthory at Pskov during the final period of peace negotiations at the end of the 1578-1582 Livonian campaign.
 It also shows the papal legate, the black-robed Jesuit Antonio Possevino.
"Rebel Heart" is a song recorded by American singer Madonna for her thirteenth studio album, "Rebel Heart" (2015).
 Madonna co-wrote and co-produced the song with Avicii, Arash Pournouri, Salem Al Fakir, Magnus Lidehäll and Vincent Pontare.
 An early demo of "Rebel Heart" as well as the final version, both leaked to the internet prior the album's scheduled release.
 The final version was made available on March 6, 2015 when "Rebel Heart" was released.
The Tsar's Bride (Russian: Царская невеста, "Tsarskaja nevesta" ) is an historical verse drama in four acts by Lev Mei from 1849.
 Fifty years later Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov used the play as the basis for his opera of the same name.
 As with Mei's other Russian historical drama, "The Maid of Pskov" (1859), this play is set in the time of Ivan the Terrible.
Ivan the Terrible (Russian: Иван Грозный , "Ivan Grozniy") is a two-part historical epic film about Ivan IV of Russia commissioned by Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin, who admired and identified himself with Ivan, to be written and directed by the filmmaker Sergei Eisenstein.
 Part I was released in 1944; however, Part II was not released until 1958, as it was banned on the order of Stalin, who became incensed over the depiction of Ivan therein.
 Eisenstein had developed the scenario to require a third part to finish the story but, with the banning of Part II, filming of Part III was stopped; after Eisenstein's death in 1948, what had been completed was destroyed.
Chinese whispers—known as telephone in the United States—is an internationally popular children's game, in which the players form a line and the first person in the line whispers a message to the ear of the next person in the line, and so on, until the last player is reached, who announces the message to the entire group.
 The first person then compares the original message with the final version.
 Although the objective is to pass around the message without it becoming garbled along the way, part of the enjoyment is that, regardless, this usually ends up happening.
 Errors typically accumulate in the retellings, so the statement announced by the last player differs significantly from that of the first player, usually with amusing or humorous effect.
 Reasons for changes include anxiousness or impatience, erroneous corrections, the difficult-to-understand mechanism of whispering, and that some players may deliberately alter what is being said to guarantee a changed message by the end of the line.
Between Past and Future is book written by the German-born Jewish American political theorist, Hannah Arendt.
 It was published for the first time in 1961 by The Viking Press in the United States and by Faber and Faber in Great Britain.
 The first edition consisted of six essays, and two more were added to a 1968 revision.
 The book is a collection of various essays written between 1954 and 1968.
 The final version of the book includes essays dealing with different philosophical subjects including freedom, education, authority, tradition, history and politics.
 The subtitle of the final version is "Eight exercises in political thought".
The Noblewoman Vera Sheloga (Russian: Боярыня Вера Шелога, "Boyarïnya Vera Sheloga" ) is an opera in one act by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov.
 Rimsky-Korsakov wrote the libretto, which he based on the first act of the play "The Maid of Pskov" by Lev Alexandrovich Mey.
 The opera was composed in 1898 from material omitted from the second version of Rimsky-Korsakov's setting of the play as an opera.
 The first and third versions of the opera "The Maid of Pskov" omit the first act of the play.
The Maid of Pskov (Russian: Псковитянка , "Pskovityanka"), is an opera in three acts and six scenes by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov.
 The libretto was written by the composer, and is based on the drama of the same name by Lev Mei.
 The story concerns the Tsar Ivan the Terrible and his efforts to subject the cities of Pskov and Novgorod to his will.
 The original version of the opera was completed in 1872, and received its premiere in 1873 in St. Petersburg, Russia.
 The third and final version was completed in 1892, and is considered "definitive".
 This version was made famous by Chaliapin in the role of Ivan the Terrible.
 It was introduced to Paris in 1909 by Diaghilev under the title "Ivan the Terrible", on account of the dominance of his role, and because of European audience's familiarity with his name.
Ivan Orloff (Lee Beggs) and his unnamed wife (Blanche Cornwall) are poor peasants, presumably living in the Russian Empire.
 Ivan is shown sitting on a cart while his wife walks alongside their horse, helping to pull the cart.
 The husband whips both the horse and his wife indiscriminately.
 The wife is represented as completely subordinated, as just another beast.
 On their way, they meet a group of emigrants who invite Ivan to join them.
 When Ivan, together with his wife, arrives in America, "the land of freedom," he learns four "lesson[s] in Americanism" that turn him into a respectful husband with regard to his wife.
 The first lesson takes place upon landing.
 Ivan has his wife carry a huge bundle on her back.
 When she succumbs under the weight of the bundle, Ivan starts prodding her with a stick, threatening to beat her.
 A gentleman approaches them, picks up the bundle and puts it on Ivan's back.
 The gentleman takes the stick from Ivan, hands it to the wife and shows her how to prod Ivan.
 The second "lesson in Americanism" takes place in the couple's new home at Odessa Inn.
 Threatening his wife, Ivan asks her to take off his shoes.
 He beats her and knocks her to the floor.
 A man comes in and asks Ivan to put the wife in bed.
 After Ivan reluctantly does that, the man knocks him down to the floor the way Ivan did to his wife.
 The third lesson takes place in the countryside.
 The couple no longer lives at the inn but owns a house and some land.
 The wife no longer wears a scarf.
 She toils in the garden, while Ivan sits in a chair smoking a pipe.
 When she protests, Ivan goes to beat her, but a passer-by stops him and punches him several times, forcing him to tend to his wife who has fainted and work instead of her.
 Ivan's wife begins to live in an increasingly "American way."
 She learns to stand up to his abuse.
 They have another feud, this time while having dinner in their house.
 While they are scuffling with each other, two men come in and break them up.
 For Ivan's fourth and final "lesson in Americanism," he gets sentenced to hard labor for six months.
 In prison, he cracks and becomes "completely Americanized."
 The ending shows Ivan in the garden and his wife calling him for dinner.
 As they sit down to the table, they both seem happy and equal.
