  • Royal Monastery of Brou
    EN ROYAL MONASTERY The masterpiece OF BROU of an emperor’s daughter The Royal Monastery of Brou, an exceptional monument, is the result of the determination at the dawn of the Renaissance of a European Princess: Margaret of Austria (1480 – 1530), daughter of an emperor, Duchess of Savoy and Regent of the Netherlands. Its church, built to commemorate her love for her deceased husband Philibert the Handsome, is famous for its elegant tombs carved in marble and alabaster. The unity of its construction, its lavish decoration and its polychrome, glazed tiles make it a masterpiece of the Flamboyant Gothic style. The three two-storey cloisters, which reveal both the skill of the builders and the life of the monks, contain the Princess’s apartments and the rich collections of the Museum of Fine Art.

  • Halliburton, Richard (1900-1939) by Mark Staebler
    Halliburton, Richard (1900-1939) by Mark Staebler Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2007 glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Once every schoolboy's idol, a best-selling author, and a household name in the United States and abroad, American adventurer and writer Richard Halliburton became virtually forgotten soon after his death in 1939. Recently, however, there has been renewed interest in him, at least in part because of his homosexuality, which he understandably took efforts to conceal during his lifetime but which nevertheless surfaced in his writing and has subsequently been confirmed. Halliburton was born on January 9, 1900, in Brownsville, Tennessee, near Memphis, to a prosperous family. A sickly child, he manifested a congenital heart problem at age 15 and spent eight months in isolated recovery. His brother's death from a similar condition two years later motivated Halliburton to take the offensive against infirmity, and to determine to seek a life of adventure and daring. After graduating from prep school, Halliburton entered Princeton University. At Princeton he was an indifferent student, but sold an article to Field and Stream magazine for $150. This success encouraged him to pursue a life of traveling and writing. Just weeks after his graduation from Princeton in 1921, Halliburton signed on as a merchant seaman on a freighter bound for Hamburg, Germany. His ceaseless quest for adventure had begun. He climbed the Matterhorn in September of that year. His wanderlust took him through Paris and on to the "rock of Gibraltar," where taking photographs of defense weapon emplacements at the strait landed him in jail.
