| | | | | Thomas: Encyclopedia II - Thomas Selfridge - Death When Orville Wright came to Fort Myer, Virginia to demonstrate the latest Wright Flyer for the Army, Selfridge arranged to fly along while Orville piloted the craft. The Wright Flyer circled Fort Myer 4½ times at 150 feet (46 m). Halfway through the fifth circuit, there was a loud bang and the end of the propeller blade fell off. The Flyer's vibration caused the propeller to hit a guy wire, tearing the wire out of its fastening and disintegrating the propeller, which caused damage to the canvas and wooden machine. To bring the F ...

Thomas Hobbes - With Bramhall.
Hobbes now turned to complete the fundamental treatise of his philosophical system. He worked so steadily that De Corpore was first printed in 1654. Also 1654 a small treatise, Of Liberty and Necessity was published by Bishop John Bramhall addressed at Hobbes. Bramhall, a strong Arminian, had met and debated with Hobbes and afterwards wrote down his views and sent them privately to be answered in this form by Hobbes. Hobbes duly replied, but not for publication. But a ...

| | | | | Thomas: Encyclopedia II - Gospel of Thomas - The Gospel of Thomas and the canon of the New Testament The fact that the Gospel of Thomas does not seem to have been considered for the New Testament is seen by some as an indication of its being of a later date — had it actually been written by the apostle Thomas, they argue, it would have been at least seriously considered by those in the century immediately following Jesus' death. This opinion is more popular among Christians who accept a divinely-inspired New Testament canon as an article of their ...

| | | | | Thomas: Encyclopedia II - Thomas Tomkins - Works Tomkins wrote madrigals, keyboard music, consort music, anthems, and liturgical music. Stylistically he was extremely conservative, even anachronistic: he seems to have completely ignored the rising Baroque practice around him, with its Italian-inspired idioms, and he also avoided writing in most of the popular forms of the time, such as the lute song, or ayre. His polyphonic language, even in the fourth decade of the 17th century, was frankly that of the Renaissance. Some of his madrigals are extremely expressive, with text-painting and chromaticism worthy of Italian mad ...

| | | | | Thomas: Encyclopedia II - Gospel of Thomas - Comparison of The Gospel of Thomas to the New Testament The Gospel of Thomas does not refer to Jesus as "Christ" or "Lord" as the New Testament does, but simply as "Jesus." The Gospel of Thomas also lacks any mention of such classic Christian doctrines as Satan, Demons, The Second Coming, sin, or signs. However, it includes several parables similar to ones found in the canonical gospels that contain themes including Hell, eternal damnati ...

| | | | | | Thomas: Encyclopedia II - Dylan Thomas - Life Dylan Thomas was born in the coastal town of Swansea, Wales. His father David, who was a writer and possessed a degree in English, brought his son up to speak English rather than Thomas's mother's native Welsh. He attended the boys-only Swansea Grammar School, (later known as Bishop Gore Grammar School, now reincarnated as Bishop Gore Comprehensive School), at which his father taught English Literature. It was in the school's magazine that the young Dylan saw his first poem published. Dylan Thomas's middle name, "Marlais", came from the bard ...

| | | | | | Thomas: Encyclopedia II - Gospel of Thomas - Confusion with other works The Gospel of Thomas is distinct and unrelated to other apocryphal or pseudepigraphal works, the Acts of Thomas, and the work called the Infancy Gospel of Thomas, which expands on the canonical texts to describe the miraculous childhood of Jesus. When Hippolytus and Origen (ca 233) refer to a "Gospel of Thomas" among the heterodox apocryphal gospels, it is unclear whether they mean the Infancy Gospel of Thomas or this "sayings" Gospel of Thomas. The Gospel of Thomas is also ...

| | | | | Thomas: Encyclopedia II - Thomas Hobbes - In Paris Hobbes's first area of study was an interest in the physical doctrine of motion. Despite his interest in this phenomenon, he disdained experimental work as in physics. He went on to conceive the system of thought to the elaboration of which he would devote his life. His scheme was first to work out, in a separate treatise, a systematic doctrine of body, showing how physical phenomena were universally explicable in terms of motion, at least as motion or mechanical action was then understood. He then singled out Man from the realm of Nature. T ...

He had been suspected of proposing an invasion of Ireland to King Philip II of Spain, and soon after his release he offered his services to Fénelon, the French ambassador in London. He returned to Ireland in 1570, where he fitted out a ship at Waterford and made a great show of his piety, proceeding through the streets of the city on his knees as he offered himself up to God. He then sailed from Waterford on the 17th of April, supposedly for London, but his real ...

Sonya Thomas - Rookie year.
After seeing Kobayashi (approximately 145 pounds) win the 2002 Nathan's contest, Thomas realized size was not an impediment to being a world-class eater, and entered the competitive eating circuit. In her first contest, the June 2003 Nathan's qualifier held at the Molly Pitcher rest stop on the New Jersey Turnpike, her tally of 18 hot dogs took first place and enabled her to compete in the July 4th competition held at Coney Island.

Thomas North - Guevara.
He translated, in 1557, Guevara's Reloj de Principes (commonly known as Libro áureo), a compendium of moral counsels chiefly compiled from the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, under the title of Diall of Princes. The English of this work is one of the earliest specimens of the ornate, copious and pointed style for which educated young Englishmen had acquired a ta ...

| | | | | Thomas: Encyclopedia II - Thomas Edison - Inventor Thomas Edison began his career as an inventor in Newark, New Jersey with the automatic repeater and other improved telegraphic devices, but the invention which first gained Edison fame was the phonograph in 1877. While non-reproducible sound recording was first achieved by Leon Scott de Martinville (France, 1857), and scientists at the time (notably Charles Cros) were contemplating the notion that sound waves might be recorded and reproduced, Edison was the first to publicly demonstrate a device to do so. This accomplishment was so unexpecte ...

| | | | | Thomas: Encyclopedia II - Thomas Becket - Assassination The tension between the two men would only be relieved by catastrophe. Passionate words from the angry king (reputedly "Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?") were interpreted as a royal command, and four knights — Reginald Fitzurse, Hugh de Moreville, William de Tracey, and Richard le Breton — set out to plot the murder of the archbishop. On Tuesday December 29, 1170 they carried out their plan, murdering Becket at the entry of the Quire in Canterbury Cathedral as he was ...

| | | | | | Thomas: Encyclopedia II - R. S. Thomas - Works Almost all of Thomas' work concerns his twin passions, the Welsh landscape and the Welsh people. Underlying these twin themes are the politics. Even simple, lyrical descriptions of a hillside or a field can be read as a political statement. His views on the position of the Welsh people, as a conquered people are never far below the surface. His religious views, as might be expected from a clergyman, are also present in his works. These concerns mark out his work as particularly distinctive and, perhaps, an easy subject for satire. The reader ...
