  • Governance and Urban Development in Birmingham: England's Second
    Governance and urban development in Birmingham England’s second city since the millennium Acknowledgements This report was written by Liam O’Farrell, Research Associate at the University of Birmingham with funding from the Swiss National Science Foundation as part of the “Democratic Foundations of the Just City” project, which was a comparative study of housing, urban planning and governance in three European second cities: Birmingham, Lyon and Zurich. The project was a collaboration between the University of Zurich’s Centre for Democracy Studies Aarau (ZDA) and the University of Birmingham’s Centre for Urban and Regional Studies (CURS). The report was made possible through the support of a number of colleagues, including Dr Peter Lee at the University of Birmingham’s CURS; Dr Eric Chu, previously at CURS and now at the University of California, Davis; Oliver Dlabac and Roman Zwicky at the University of Zurich’s ZDA; and Dr Charlotte Hoole at the University of Birmingham’s City-REDI. Unless otherwise cited, photographs in this report were provided by Roman Zwicky, part of the research team. Birmingham analysis maps were produced by Dr Charlotte Hoole using publicly available ONS datasets. We would like to thank those working in the housing sector across the city who generously shared their knowledge and experience of planning and development in Birmingham. The “Democratic Foundations of the Just City” project was supported by: • The Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF), by means of a research grant for the project “The Democratic Foundations of the Just City” (100012M_170240) within the International Co-Investigator Scheme in cooperation with the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) and the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) in the UK.

  • Tauber Chronology – Last Revised: May 2021

Died: London, 8 January 1948, and of John Marsom [1940-2018], my loving partner for over 46 years. Warning: Earlier versions of this work have been archived and pirated by other websites. The most recent update will always be the one found here: http://www.richard-tauber.de/ What’s New in this Edition? A new feature, I thought it might be helpful briefly to mention at the beginning entries that are new – or significantly changed - in this edition, so readers already familiar with the previous edition(s) can go straight to the relevant pages. ● The UK tour in April 1937 began in Dublin: new dates/venues/details have been added. Additional details of his visits to Ireland in April 1935 and Jan 1945 have also been confirmed. ● A new work has been added to the list of RT’s stage appearances. Morgen wider Lustik!, an operetta by Heinz Lewin (1888-1942), a boyhood friend of Tauber’s in Wiesbaden, who perished in the Holocaust, was performed at the Theater des Westens in Berlin in 1921/2. I thank Heinz Lewin’s granddaughter, Yvonne Mocatta, for this information. ● New photographs have been added, including two of Tauber’s grave, one attended by the youthful author, taken in March 1978.

    Military History Anniversaries 16 thru 30 November Events in History over the next 15 day period that had U.S. military involvement or impacted in some way on U.S military operations or American interests Nov 16 1776 – U.S. Revolutionary War: Hessians Capture Fort Washington » During the Revolutionary War, Lieutenant General Wilhelm von Knyphausen and a force of 3,000 Hessian mercenaries lay siege to Fort Washington on Long Island. Throughout the morning, Knyphausen met stiff resistance from the Patriot riflemen inside, but by the afternoon the Americans were overwhelmed, and the garrison commander, Colonel Robert Magaw, surrendered. Valuable ammunition and supplies were lost to the Hessians and 2,818 Americans were taken prisoner. The prisoners faced a particularly grim fate. Many later died from deprivation and disease aboard British prison ships anchored in New York Harbor. Among the 53 dead and 96 wounded Patriots were John and Margaret Corbin of Virginia. When John died in action, his wife Margaret took over his cannon, cleaning, loading and firing the gun until she too was severely wounded. The first woman known to have fought for the Continental Army, Margaret survived, but lost the use of her left arm. Two weeks earlier, William Demont had deserted from the Fifth Pennsylvania Battalion and given British intelligence agents information about the Patriot defense of New York, including information about the location and defense of Fort Washington. Demont was the first traitor to the Patriot cause, and his treason contributed significantly to Knyphausen’s victory.
