    -नः) the eldest of the 11 sons of Dhṛitarāṣṭra and Gāndhārī. [From his early years he conceived a deep hatred for his cousins the Pāṇḍavas, but particularly Bhīma, and made every effort he could to compass their destruction. When his father pro- posed to make Yudhiṣṭhira heir-apparent, Duryodhana did not like the idea, as his father was the reigning sovereign, and prevailed upon his blind father to send the Pāṇḍavas away into exile. Vāraṇāvata was fixed upon as their abode, and under pretext of constructing a palatial building for their residence, Duryodhana caused a palace to be built mostly of lac, resin and other combustible materials, thereby hoping to see them all destroyed when they should enter it. But the Paṇḍavas were forewarned and they safely escaped. They then lived at Indraprastha, and Yudhiṣṭhira performed the Rājasuya sacrifice with great pomp and splendour. This event further excited the anger and jealousy of Duryodhana, who was already vexed to find that his plot for burning them up had signally failed, and he induced his father to invite the Pāṇḍavas to Hastināpura to play with dice (of which Yudhiṣṭhira was particularly fond). In that gambling-match, Duryodhana, who was ably assisted by his maternal uncle Śakuni, won from Yudhiṣṭhira everything that he staked, till the infatuated gambler staked himself, his brothers, and Draupadī herself, all of whom shared the same fate. Yudhiṣṭhira, as a condition of the wager, was forced to go to the forest with his wife and brothers, and to remain there for twelve years and to pass one addi- tional year incognito. But even this period, long as it was, expired, and after their return from exile both the Pāṇḍavas and Kauravas made great preparations for the inevitable struggle and the great Bhāratī war commenced. It lasted for eighteen days during which all the Kauravas, with most of their allies, were slain. It was on the last day of the war that Bhīma fought a duel with Duryodhana and smashed his thigh with his club.] मोघं तवेदं भुवि नामधेयं दुर्योधनेतीह कृतं पुरस्तात् न हीह दुर्योधनता तवास्ति पलायमानस्य रणं विहाय Mb.4.65.17.

  • 16 σκίρον

    Grammatical information: n.
    Meaning: des. of a white parasol or canopy, which was carried at processions from the aropolis to a place called Σκῖρον ( Σκίρον) (later suburb of Athens) on the holy road to Eleusis in honour of Athena (Skiras) and other goddesses and gods (Lysimachid., sch. Ar. Ec. 18); pl. Σκίρα name of a women's feast in honour of Demeter, Core and Athena Polias (Ar., inscr. a. o.).
    Compounds: As 1. in Σκιρο-φόρια n. pl. `id.' (H., Phot., Suid.); from this Σκιροφοριών, - ῶνος m. Att. month-name (Juni-Juli; Antipho, inscr. etc.).
    Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
    Etymology: Not certainly explained. Since long (s. Curtius 168) connected with σκιά, semant. or course unproblematic. It must be then a very old, from σκιά independent formation, which formally agrees with Alb. hir `grace of God' (Jokl Untersuchungen 67 after Bugge) and except for the vowel-length with a Germ. adj. for `clear, gleaming, bright', e.g. Goth. skeirs, OWNo. skīrr, NHG schier (to this further with other suffixes NHG Schemen `silhouette', MHG scheim `gleam, shade', NHG scheinen etc. etc.), basic meaning `(subdued) shine, reflex' (WP. 2, 535f., Pok. 917f.); cf. on σκιά. -- The interpretation of σκίρον as `parasol' is however by Deubner Att. Feste 40ff. rejected as a late learned construction. He sees in the σκίρα (orig. meaning unknown) different objects (pigs, representations of phalluses etc.), which at the relevant feast were thrown as sacrificial gifts in subterranean caverns, the soc. μέγαρα, and later at the Thesmophoria were brought up again (s. also Nilsson Gr. Rel. 12, 119 a. 469); a in several respects doubtful hypothesis.

  • 17 Renold, Hans

    [br]
    b. 31 July 1852 Aarau, Switzerland
    d. 2 May 1943 Grange-over-Sands, Lancashire, England
    [br]
    Swiss (naturalized British 1881) mechanical engineer, inventor and pioneer of the precision chain industry.
    [br]
    Hans Renold was educated at the cantonal school of his native town and at the Polytechnic in Zurich. He worked in two or three small workshops during the polytechnic vacations and served an apprenticeship of eighteen months in an engineering works at Neuchâtel, Switzerland. After a short period of military service he found employment as a draughtsman in an engineering firm at Saint-Denis, near Paris, from 1871 to 1873. In 1873 Renold moved first to London and then to Manchester as a draughtsman and inspector with a firm of machinery exporters. From 1877 to 1879 he was a partner in his own firm of machine exporters. In 1879 he purchased a small firm in Salford making chain for the textile industry. At about this time J.K.Starley introduced the "safety" bicycle, which, however, lacked a satisfactory drive chain. Renold met this need with the invention of the bush roller chain, which he patented in 1880. The new chain formed the basis of the precision chain industry: the business expanded and new premises were acquired in Brook Street, Manchester, in 1881. In the same year Renold became a naturalized British subject.
    Continued expansion of the business necessitated the opening of a new factory in Brook Street in 1889. The factory was extended in 1895, but by 1906 more accommodation was needed and a site of 11 ½ acres was acquired in the Manchester suburb of Burnage: the move to the new building was finally completed in 1914. Over the years, further developments in the techniques of chain manufacture were made, including the invention in 1895 of the inverted tooth or silent chain. Renold made his first visit to America in 1891 to study machine-tool developments and designed for his own works special machine tools, including centreless grinding machines for dealing with wire rods up to 10 ft (3 m) in length.
    The business was established as a private limited company in 1903 and merged with the Coventry Chain Company Ltd in 1930. Good industrial relations were always of concern to Renold and he established a 48-hour week as early as 1896, in which year a works canteen was opened. Joint consultation with shop stewards date2 from 1917. Renold was elected a Member of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers in 1902 and in 1917 he was made a magistrate of the City of Manchester.
