He studied law and worked as a law clerk. When Henri Matisse was 21 years old he became seriously ill. During the phase of convalescence Matisse started painting and discovered his love for art, which should become his life-long passion. Two years later, in 1892, he gave up his career as a lawyer. He attended art classes at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and dabbled in different styles. He then was influenced by the impressionist and post-impressionist painters Pisarro, Cezanne, van Gogh, Gauguin and Paul Signac and by the paintings of W. Turner. Around the year 1905 he finally found his own style characterized by daring, bright colors executed in a broad brush stroke.

64. HENRY O. FLIPPER History of the first Black Graduate of West Point, Henry O. Flipper. http://www.nps.gov/archive/foda/Fort_Davis_WEB_PAGE/About_the_Fort/Flipper_Site_

Second Lieutenant Henry O. Flipper First Black Graduate of West Point On February 19, 1999, President William J. Clinton posthumously pardoned Second Lieutenant Henry Ossian Flipper. The event came 59 years after his death and 117 years after the young lieutenant had been dismissed from the United States Army. A short statement penned by President Chester Arthur in June of 1882, upholding the court-martial sentence of dismissal, had signaled the end to his military career. At age 21, Flipper became the first black graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point. His assignment in July 1877 to the Tenth U.S. Cavalry, one of two black cavalry regiments organized after the Civil War, was the realization of a personal dream. In the fall of 1880, Lieutenant Flipper was court-martialed for embezzlement of commissary funds in violation of the 60th Article of War, and for "conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman" under Article 61. Flipper pleaded not guilty to both charges. Although the court found him not guilty of embezzlement, he was convicted of the second charge for making a false statement, for signing financial records he knew to be incorrect, and for writing a check on a nonexistent bank account. By regulations, this conviction carried an automatic sentence of dismissal from the army.

65. Henri Bergson Breve coment rio sobre a vida e o pensamento do fil sofo franc s. http://www.vidaslusofonas.pt/henri_bergson.htm

Henri Bergson (Paris, 1859 - idem, Filósofo e escritor francês. Esmeradamente educado, em 1900 é nomeado professor no Colégio de França, onde as suas aulas obtêm um êxito sem precedentes. Membro do Instituto de França desde 1901, ingressa na Academia Francesa em 1914. Em 1928 obtém o Prémio Nobel de Literatura. Morre durante a ocupação alemã de França após expressar a sua adesão moral ao catolicismo, apesar da sua origem judia. Desfruta em vida de uma popularidade e de uma aceitação insólitas num pensador. A sua filosofia está em estreita relação com o positivismo do século xix Para Bergson, o homem é capaz de superar o domínio da inteligência e de guardar o impulso criador, superando o nível estático da moral e da religião até transcender plenamente o élan vital, o impulso vital, que, definitivamente, é de Deus, se não é o próprio Deus.

Old Mobeetie Texas Association LIEUTENANT HENRY O. FLIPPER Henry O.Flipper was West Point's First Black Graduate and America's First Black Officer. He was stationed at Fort Elliott, Texas in 1879. Henry Ossian Flipper was born a slave on March 21, 1856, in Thomasville, Georgia. He began his education in a woodshed where an old slave taught him the alphabet. After the Civil War, his father, a skilled shoemaker and carriage trimmer, prospered and hired the wife of a former Confederate captain to tutor Henry and his other three sons. In the fall of 1872, Henry learned about a vacancy at the West Point Military Academy. After passing the qualifying examination, Flipper received his appointment on May 25, 1873. Flipper became the first black graduate from West Point on June 14, 1877, after enduring four years of loneliness and isolation among the predominantly white cadets who, from time to time, harassed and mistreated him. When Flipper was handed his diploma, he received a standing ovation from his classmates and the spectators for his four years of dedication and courage. Major General John Schofield, West Point's Superintendent, gave a tribute to Flipper's bravery against isolation and exclusion by his classmates. He stated, "No white cadet had ever been burdened with the hope of an entire race on his shoulders. Anyone knows how quietly and bravely this young manthe first of his despised race to graduate from West Pointhas borne the difficulties of his position; how for four years he has had to stand apart from his classmates as one with them but not of them... ." Henry O. Flipper became the first black officer in the United States Military Service.

78. Who Was Henry George? Introduction to the life and impact of Henry George with additional links for the interested reader. http://www.progress.org/books/george.htm

The Robert Schalkenbach Foundation presents: Who Was Henry George? by Agnes George de Mille A hundred years ago a young unknown printer in San Francisco wrote a book he called Progress and Poverty . He wrote after his daily working hours, in the only leisure open to him for writing. He had no real training in political economy. Indeed he had stopped schooling in the seventh grade in his native Philadelphia, and shipped before the mast as a cabin boy, making a complete voyage around the world. Three years later, he was halfway through a second voyage as able seaman when he left the ship in San Francisco and went to work as a journeyman printer. After that he took whatever honest job came to hand. All he knew of economics were the basic rules of Adam Smith, David Ricardo, and other economists, and the new philosophies of Herbert Spencer and John Stuart Mill, much of which he gleaned from reading in public libraries and from his own painstakingly amassed library. Marx was yet to be translated into English. George was endowed for his job. He was curious and he was alertly attentive to all that went on around him. He had that rarest of all attributes in the scholar and historian that gift without which all education is useless. He had mother wit. He read what he needed to read, and he understood what he read. And he was fortunate; he lived and worked in a rapidly developing society. George had the unique opportunity of studying the formation of a civilization the change of an encampment into a thriving metropolis. He saw a city of tents and mud change into a fine town of paved streets and decent housing, with tramways and buses. And as he saw the beginning of wealth, he noted the first appearance of pauperism. He saw degradation forming as he saw the advent of leisure and affluence, and he felt compelled to discover why they arose concurrently.
