  • 101 Emigration

       Traditionally, Portugal has been a country with a history of emigration to foreign lands, as well as to the overseas empire. During the early centuries of empire, only relatively small numbers of Portuguese emigrated to reside permanently in its colonies. After the establishment of the second, largely Brazilian empire in the 17th century, however, greater numbers of Portuguese left to seek their fortunes outside Europe. It was only toward the end of the 19th century, however, that Portuguese emigration became a mass movement, at first, largely to Brazil. While Portuguese-speaking Brazil was by far the most popular destination for the majority of Portuguese emigrants in early modern and modern times, after 1830, the United States and later Venezuela also became common destinations.
       Portuguese emigration patterns have changed in the 20th century and, as the Portuguese historian and economist Oliveira Martins wrote before the turn of the century, Portuguese emigration rates are a kind of national barometer. Crises and related social, political, and economic conditions within Portugal, as well as the presence of established emigrant communities in various countries, emigration laws, and the world economy have combined to shape emigration rates and destinations.
       After World War II, Brazil no longer remained the favorite destination of the majority of Portuguese emigrants who left Portugal to improve their lives and standards of living. Beginning in the 1950s, and swelling into a massive stream in the 1960s and into the 1970s, most Portuguese emigrated to find work in France and, after the change in U.S. immigration laws in the mid-1960s, a steady stream went to North America, including Canada. The emigration figures here indicate that the most intensive emigration years coincided with excessive political turmoil and severe draft (army conscription) laws during the First Republic (1912 was the high point), that emigration dropped during World Wars I and II and during economic downturns such as the Depression, and that the largest flow of Portuguese emigration in history occurred after the onset of the African colonial wars (1961) and into the 1970s, as Portuguese sought emigration as a way to avoid conscription or assignment to Africa.
       1887 17,000
       1900ca. 17,000 (mainly to Brazil)
       1910 39,000
       1912 88,000 (75,000 of these to Brazil)
       1930ca. 30,000 (Great Depression)
       1940ca. 8,800
       1950 41,000
       1955 57,000
       1960 67,000
       1965 131,000
       1970 209,000
       Despite considerable efforts by Lisbon to divert the stream of emigrants from Brazil or France to the African territories of Angola and Mozambique, this colonization effort failed, and most Portuguese who left Portugal preferred the better pay and security of jobs in France and West Germany or in the United States, Venezuela, and Brazil, where there were more deeply rooted Portuguese emigrant communities. At the time of the Revolution of 25 April 1974, when the military coup in Lisbon signaled the beginning of pressures for the Portuguese settlers to leave Africa, the total number of Portuguese resident in the two larger African territories amounted to about 600,000. In modern times, nonimperial Portuguese emigration has prevailed over imperial emigration and has had a significant impact on Portugal's annual budget (due to emigrants' remittances), the political system (since emigrants have a degree of absentee voting rights), investment and economy, and culture.
       A total of 4 million Portuguese reside and work outside Portugal as of 2009, over one-third of the country's continental and island population. It has also been said that more Portuguese of Azorean descent reside outside the Azores than in the Azores. The following statistics reflect the pattern of Portuguese emigrant communities in the world outside the mother country.

  • 103 Chapman, Frederik Henrik af

    SUBJECT AREA: Ports and shipping
    [br]
    b. 9 September 1721 Gothenburg, Sweden
    d. 19 August 1808 Karlskrona, Sweden
    [br]
    Swedish naval architect and shipbuilder; one of the foremost ship designers of all time.
    [br]
    Chapman was born on the west coast of Sweden and was the son of a British naval officer serving in the Swedish Navy. In 1738 he followed in his father's footsteps by joining the naval dockyards as a shipbuilding apprentice. Subsequent experience was gained in other shipyards and by two years (1741–3) in London. His assiduous note taking and study of British shipbuilding were noticed and he was offered appointments in England, but these were refused and he returned to Sweden in 1744 and for a while operated as a ship repairer in partnership with a man called Bagge. In 1749 he started out on his own. He began with a period of study in Stockholm and in London, where he worked for a while under Thomas Simpson, and then went on to France and the Netherlands. During his time in England he learned the art of copper etching, a skill that later stood him in good stead. After some years he was appointed Deputy Master Shipwright to the Swedish Navy, and in 1760 he became Master Shipwright at Sveaborg (now Suomenlinna), the fortress island of Helsinki. There Chapman excelled by designing the coastal defence or skerry fleet that to this day is accepted as beautiful and fit for purpose. He understood the limitations of ship design and throughout his life strove to improve shipbuilding by using the advances in mathematics and science that were then being made. His contribution to the rationalization of thought in ship theory cannot be overemphasized.
    In 1764 he became Chief Shipbuilder to the Swedish Navy, with particular responsibility for Karlskrona and for Stockholm. He assisted in the new rules for the classification of warships and later introduced standardization to the naval dockyards. He continued to rise in rank and reputation until his retirement in 1793, but to the end his judgement was sought on many matters concerning not only ship design but also the administration of the then powerful Swedish Navy.
    His most important bequest to his profession is the great book Architectura Navalis Mercatoria, first published in 1768. Later editions were larger and contained additional material. This volume remains one of the most significant works on shipbuilding.

    [br]
    b. 27 February 1891 Uzlian, Minsk (now in Belarus)
    d. 12 December 1971 New York City, New York, USA
    [br]
    Russian/American engineer who made a major contribution to the commercial development of radio and television.
    [br]
    As a Jewish boy in Russia, Sarnoff spent several years preparing to be a Talmudic Scholar, but in 1900 the family emigrated to the USA and settled in Albany, New York. While at public school and at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York, he helped the family finances by running errands, selling newspapers and singing the liturgy in the synagogue. After a short period as a messenger boy with the Commercial Cable Company, in 1906 he became an office boy with the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company of America (see G. Marconi). Having bought a telegraph instrument with his first earnings, he taught himself Morse code and was made a junior telegraph operator in 1907. The following year he became a wireless operator at Nantucket Island, then in 1909 he became Manager of the Marconi station at Sea Gate, New York. After two years at sea he returned to a shore job as wireless operator at the world's most powerful station at Wanamaker's store in Manhattan. There, on 14 April 1912, he picked up the distress signals from the sinking iner Titanic, remaining at his post for three days.
    Rewarded by rapid promotion (Chief Radio Inspector 1913, Contract Manager 1914, Assistant Traffic Manager 1915, Commercial Manager 1917) he proposed the introduction of commercial radio broadcasting, but this received little response. Consequently, in 1919 he took the job of Commercial Manager of the newly formed Radio Corporation of America (RCA), becoming General Manager in 1921, Vice- President in 1922, Executive Vice-President in 1929 and President in 1930. In 1921 he was responsible for the broadcasting of the Dempsey-Carpentier title-fight, as a result of which RCA sold $80 million worth of radio receivers in the following three years. In 1926 he formed the National Broadcasting Company (NBC). Rightly anticipating the development of television, in 1928 he inaugurated an experimental NBC television station and in 1939 demonstrated television at the New York World Fair. Because of his involvement with the provision of radio equipment for the armed services, he was made a lieutenant-colonel in the US Signal Corps Reserves in 1924, a full colonel in 1931 and, while serving as a communications consultant to General Eisenhower during the Second World War, Brigadier General in 1944.
    With the end of the war, RCA became a major manufacturer of television receivers and then invested greatly in the ultimately successful development of shadowmask tubes and receivers for colour television. Chairman and Chief Executive from 1934, Sarnoff held the former post until his retirement in 1970.

  • 107 make good

    1) обосновывать, доказывать, подтверждать

    In view of its accord with the monstrous system of Indian peonage, it is impossible for the Catholic church to make good its claim that it was the Indians friend in colonial days. (W. Foster, ‘Outline Political History of the Americas’, book I, ch. VI) — Поскольку католическая церковь одобряла чудовищно жестокую систему пеоната, она никак не может обосновать свое утверждение, будто в колониальную эпоху была "другом индейцев"

    2) восполнять, возмещать, компенсировать ( потерю)

    ...he saw clearly enough that Annie's loss would never be made good. (R. Aldington, ‘All Men Are Enemies’, part II, ch. III) —...Тони прекрасно понимал, что утрата Анни невозместима.

    He could not afford to make good the damage done... (W. S. Maugham, ‘Of Human Bondage’, ch. 97) — У него не хватило бы средств привести все в прежний вид...

    3) осуществлять; выполнять ( обещание); сдержать ( слово)

    ...the last boarder made good his escape and disappeared with the rest into the wood. (R. L. Stevenson, ‘Treasure Island’, part IV, ch. XXI) —...последний из нападающих благополучно перелез через частокол и скрылся вместе со всеми в лесу.

    Conrad: "...you don't believe you will be called to make good your word." (B. Shaw, ‘Back to Methuselah’, part II) — Конрад: "...а вы не думаете, что вам придется сдержать свое слово?"

    He wondered if Gregg were ugly enough to make good his insane threat. (J. Updike, ‘The Poorhouse Fair’, ch. I) — Коннор думал о том, действительно ли Грегг такое чудовище, что может осуществить свои безумные угрозы.

    4) добиться успеха, преуспевать

    He was an awful grind, and most of us considered it unfair competition. However, he's made good, I suppose. (U. Sinclair, ‘World's End’, ch. 25) — - День и ночь Олстон корпел над книгами, и мы все считали, что это просто не по-товарищески. Однако он, как видно, выбился в люди.

    His nominees - suggested to political conferences - were so often known to make good. (Th. Dreiser, ‘The Financier’, ch. XI) — Кандидатуры, которые он выдвигал на выборах, обычно проходили с успехом.

    His father was furious with him for selling land to speculate in gold-mines. Said he had squandered a fortune to give Morris a chance of making good in the colonies; but from henceforward Morris would have to shift for himself. (K. S. Prichard, ‘The Roaring Nineties’, ch. 14) — Отец Морриса пришел в бешенство, узнав, что сын продал землю и собирается спекулировать на акциях золотодобывающих рудников. Мне стоило целого состояния, говорил он, дать Моррису возможность попытать счастья в колониях. Отныне пусть полагается только на себя. Ни одного пенни от меня он больше не получит.

  • 109 Ἄτλας

    Ἄτλας, - αντος
    Grammatical information: PN m.
    Meaning: `Atlas' (Od.), name of the god who carries the pillars of heaven.
    Derivatives: Άτλαντίς f. (Hes.), o. a. name of a mythical island, plausibly interpreted as Minoan Crete (R. Castleden, Atlantis destroyed 1998). Άτλαντικός (E.) and Άτλάντειος (Critias).
    Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
    Etymology: Originally the name of an Arcadian mountain god, whose name was brought over to the mountain chain in Westafrica, s. Solmsen Wortforsch. 24; on Atlas as the personification of the axis of the earth Tièche Mus. Helv. 2, 65ff. - The old interpretation is α copulativum and the root of τλῆ-ναι, reshaped after the ντ-stems (cf. Άτλᾱγενέων Hes. Op. 383); Kretschmer Glotta 7, 37 A. 1. - The name of the African mountain is also compared with Berber ádrār `mountain' (Steinhauser Glotta 25, 229ff.). Thus Brandenstein Archiv Orientální 17: 1, 69ff. who plausibly suggests folk etymological reshaping of Berb. ádrār. - The meaning of the Greek etymology is unclear, the assumption of *sm̥- is clearly a desperate guess. An IE name for this very old Titan is not to be expected; Pre-Greek words often end in - ant-. S. Beekes Glotta 71, 1995\/6, 12 n. 1.
