Scope and Contents

Wikipedia: Hassan-i Sabbāh (Persian: حسن صباح"Ž; 1050s"“1124) was a NizārÄ« Ismā"Ä«lÄ« missionary who converted a community in the late 11th century in the heart of the Alborz Mountains of northern Persia. He later seized a mountain fortress called Alamut and used it as the headquarters for a decentralized Persian insurrection against the dominant Seljuk Turks. He founded a group of fedayeen whose members are often referred to as the Hashshashin, or "Assassins". -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Official Mentality Over Last 40 years Since Russel Pasha / Houedard, Dom Sylvester., 1964

In this respect, Houedard differed with Russell Pasha's (1879-1954) opinion as cited by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crimes. Houedard became a member of SOMA, an organization that campaigned to improve the cannabis law. Their first action was a full page advertisement in the Times on July 24th 1967, headed 'The law against marijuana is immoral in principle and unworkable in practice'. Below that, a quote from the philosopher Spinoza: 'All laws which can be violated without doing anyone any injury are laughed at... He who tries to determine everything by law will foment crime rather than lessen it.' The rest of the advert was an explanation of how damaging the law was, compared with the harmlessness of cannabis. There were quotes from modern medical opinions such as 'does not lead to degeneration, does not affect the brain cells, is...

Identifier: CC-29411-30776
Scope and Contents Oulipo is an acronym for the French word meaning "Workshop for Potential Literature." The group was formed in 1960 by Raymond Queneau, a celebrated novelist and poet who was not an inconsequential amateur mathematician and his friend, Francois Le Lionnais, a chessmaster who shared his friend's love for mathematics. Queneau had been struggling with a literary task of immense complexity, his 100 trillion poems and asked Le Lionnais for practical assistance.When they discusses this problem, their conversations turned to the possibility of incorporating mathematical structures into the process of literary creation. Queneau had ready been doing this in his novels, but no one noticed until he mentioned it. Queneau and Le Lionnais soon widened their investigations beyond mathematics to include all forms of artificial restriction in literature. As an Oulipean term, restriction means a constraining method or system or rule that can be precisely defined. All literature is limited by the...

Identifier: CC-19995-20383
Scope and Contents

Corvi toured the Archive during a business trip to Miami in 1984 and was shown a poem written about him in Cervo Volante as well as Futurist works. He was amazed by the poem which was unknown to him and invited the Sackners to stay in Piacenza. There Corvi mentioned his friendship with Manzoni with whom he performed club dates. He retrieved this Manifesto which he had not seen in 30 years and recalled the intensity of writing it. He reread it stating, "now I don't understand a word it says!" This is Manzoni's first manifsto (Manzoni, Derbylius 2005). -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
