  • VICTOR SPARRE, Born in 1919, Was Brought up in Bergen, Where His Father Was City Librarian
    VICTOR SPARRE, born in 1919, was brought up in Bergen, where his father was city librarian. Later he studied art in Oslo. In 1940, during the German invasion of Norway, he served as a pri vate soldier and was wounded. He was afterwards active in the Resistance. In 1955, he won a national competition for designs to replace the windows, merely modern copies, of the mediaeval Stavanger Cathedral. There followed more than twenty commissions for stained-glass windows for Norwegian churches, including the so-called 'Arctic Cathe dral' in Tromso, where his window is one of the largest works in stained glass of this century. Meanwhile, he has been a prolific painter, with major works in the Norwegian National Gallery and many other art collections throughout Norway. He is also well known as a journalist and broad caster, whilst during the last few years his inde fatigable campaigning for human rights has helped to make his name a household word in his own country.

This includes the failure to include accurate and complete information regarding the historic significance of the projected development sites at 88 East 10th Street and 11 & 13 East 12th Street along with other historic resources in the area, as well as other significant inaccurate data and analysis. As this ULURP moves through the public review process and development pressure increases in this area from the recent Tech Hub upzoning and construction, it is critical that city agencies accurately analyze the potential impact of new construction and identify the considerable historic resources in the area, which is unfortunately largely absent from this document. 88 East 10th Street The EAS identifies 88 East 10th Street as a potential development site which has “no architectural significance.” We disagree with that assessment of this largely intact 1844 Greek Revival house.

  • ABSTRACT Soviet Religious Samizdat As a Powerful Weapon Of
    ABSTRACT Soviet Religious Samizdat as a Powerful Weapon of Soviet Religious Dissent: A Comparative Study of Baptist and Orthodox Samizdat Publications from the early 1960s to the late 1980s Larisa G. Seago, M.A. Mentor: William A. Mitchell, Ph.D. In the Soviet Union where government controlled every written and spoken word the sole way of communicating uncensored information was samizdat – a system of underground publication which existed in the Soviet Union from the early 1950s to the late 1980s. Soviet religious dissidents extensively used samizdat in their struggle for freedom of conscience. Many of their publications reached the West and soon became the sole source of truthful information about religious persecution in the Soviet Union. Baptist and Orthodox dissents contributed the most to Soviet religious samizdat. This study analyzes and describes samizdat publications produced by these denominations. It explores the two groups’ forms of organizational efforts and their use of samizdat. It demonstrates that while Orthodox dissent produced a greater variety of samizdat publications, Baptist dissent turned it into a powerful weapon in its struggle for religious freedom.
