 |  |  | 1261 - Deaths: Encyclopedia II - Baptism - Roman Catholic Eastern Orthodox Lutheran Anglican and Methodist baptismThe liturgy of baptism in the Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Lutheran, Anglican, and Methodist traditions makes clear reference to baptism as not only a symbolic burial and resurrection, but an actual supernatural transformation, one that draws parallels to the experience of Noah and the passage of the Israelites through the Red Sea divided by Moses. Thus baptism is literally and symbolically not only cleansing, but also dying and rising again with Christ. Catholics believe that baptism is necessary for the cleansing of the taint of original si ...

 |  |  | 1261 - Deaths: Encyclopedia II - Nichiren - Posthumous names and titles of respectSince his passing Nichiren has been known by several posthumous names intended to express respect for him or to represent his position in the history of Buddhism.

 |  |  | 1261 - Deaths: Encyclopedia II - Bushido - Bushido ethicsBushido expanded and formalized the earlier code of the samurai, and stressed frugality, loyalty, mastery of martial arts, and honor to the death. Under the Bushido ideal, if a samurai failed to uphold his honor he could regain it by performing seppuku (ritual suicide). In an excerpt from the chapter "AN ACCOUNT OF THE HARA-KIRI" in Mitford's "Tales of Old Japan", the author describes a friend witnessing an act of Seppuku:
"There are many stories on record of extraordinary heroism being displayed in the hara-kiri. The case of a young ...

 |  |  | 1261 - Deaths: Encyclopedia II - Japanese era name - Conversion table from nengō to Gregorian calendar yearsThe Japanese calendars prior to 1873 were derived from the Chinese. Japan adopted the Chinese calendar in 645.
To convert a Japanese year to a Western year, find the first year of the nengō (=era name, see list below). When found, subtract 1, and add the number of the Japanese year. For example, the 23rd year of the Showa Era (Showa 23) would be 1948 ...
1926 − 1 = 1925, then 1925 + 23 = 1948.

 |  |  | 1261 - Deaths: Encyclopedia II - Constantinople - Constantine's FoundationConstantine had altogether more ambitious plans. Having restored the unity of the empire, now overseeing the progress of major governmental reforms and sponsoring the consolidation of the Christian church, Constantine was well aware that Rome had become an unsatisfactory capital for several reasons. Located in central Italy, Rome lay too far from the eastern imperial frontiers, and hence also from the legions and the Imperial courts.Moreover, Rome offered an undesirable playground for disaffected politicians; it also suffered regularly from ...

According to a late tradition, since they did not believe him, Marco Polo invited them all to dinner one night during which the Polos dressed in the simple clothes of a peasant in China.

 |  |  | 1261 - Deaths: Encyclopedia II - Byzantine Empire - Legacy and importanceIt is said history is written by the winners, and no better example of this statement is shown in the treatment of the Byzantine Empire in history. It is an empire resented by Western Europe, as shown by the sacking of Constantinople by the Fourth Crusade. A popular American university textbook4 on medieval history that circulated in the 1960s and 1970s, has this to say in the only paragraph in the book devoted to "Byzantium":
The history of Byzantium is a study in disappointment. The empire centering on Constantinopl ...
