académie [akademi]feminine nouna. ( = société savante) learned societyb. ( = école) academyc. ( = circonscription) regional education authority━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━For educational administration purposes, France is divided into areas known as académies, each administered by a « recteur d'académie ». Allocation of teaching posts is centralized, so that newly qualified teachers often begin their careers in académies other than the one in which they originally lived.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━Founded by Cardinal Richelieu in 1634, this prestigious learned society has forty elected life members, commonly known as « les Immortels ». They meet in a building on the quai Conti in Paris. The building's ornate dome has given rise to the expression « être reçu sous la coupole », meaning to be admitted as a member of the Académie française. The Académie arbitrates on correct usage.* * *akademi1) ( école) schoolacadémie de peinture or de dessin — art academy

9 Domingos, Antônio de Segueira
(1768-1837)From a modest background, Domingos was educated at the Casa Pia of Lisbon, after which he attended the design and figure drawing course at the Aula Régia. In 1788, while working as a decorator, he received a scholarship from Queen Maria I to study at the Portuguese Academy in Rome, where he took classes from Antônio Cavallucci. Later, he studied at the Academy of San Luca. He returned to Lisbon in 1795. He was named court painter in 1802, and codirected the decoration of the Palace of Ajudá. In 1803, he was professor of drawing and painting to the royal princesses and, in 1806, director of drawing in Oporto. His works included patriotic allegories and portraits. He contributed to the cause of Portuguese nationalism through his art. He painted Junot Protecting Lisbon (1808), Apotheosis of Wellington (1811), and, in 1821, the portraits of 33 liberal deputies.After the return of absolutist King Miguel I (1802-66) in 1828, Domingos went into exile in France, where he showed his work at the Louvre alongside that of other romantic painters, such as Eugéne Delacroix. His Death of Camões won a gold medal. In 1826, he settled in Rome, where he dedicated himself to religious painting, the Life of Christ (1828) and Final Judgement (1830) being the best of these. He died in Rome without returning to Portugal in 1837. His work is considered transitional from neoclassicism to romanticism.Historical dictionary of Portugal > Domingos, Antônio de Segueira

14 лезть на рожон
лезть (идти, переть) на рожонпрост.1) ( предпринимать что-либо заранее обречённое на неудачу) cf. batter (bash, beat) one's head against a stone wall; kick against the pricksДаже Голицын, член-корр., патриарх и прочая, прочая, не лезет на рожон. Он тоже говорил Дану, что спор ненаучный и тратить силы на эту галиматью просто неприлично. (Д. Гранин, Иду на грозу) — Even Golitsyn, a Corresponding Member of the Academy of Sciences, patriarch etc., etc., doesn't batter his head against a stone wall. He told Dan as well that the argument was not scientific and it would be simply embarrassing to waste time on such nonsense.
2) (действовать сгоряча, не считаясь с риском или последствиями для себя) ask for trouble (for it); take risks; stick one's neck out; spoil for a fight; rush in where angels fear to tread"Береги себя, - сказал бы он Травкину, - дело делом, а не при на рожон. Будь осторожен, скоро войне конец". (Эм. Казакевич, Звезда) — 'Take care of yourself,' he would have liked to tell him. 'A job's a job, but don't take too many risks. Be careful, the war will soon be over.'
Положение было безвыходным. Памятуя наказ Одинцова "не идите на рожон", Андрей скрепя сердце согласился кое-что изменить в своих выводах. (Д. Гранин, Искатели) — There was no escape. Remembering Odintsov's advice, 'Don't ask for trouble', Andrei agreed reluctantly to revise some of his arguments.
- Большой человек? - шепнул Фёдоров, задерживая Булатова. - Этот? О-о! Фигура! Отчаянный человек. Так и прёт на рожон, да мы его в уезде придерживаем, понадобится ещё. (Н. Вирта, Одиночество) — Fyodorov detained Bulatov on the way and whispered: 'Man of calibre?' 'Him? Oh, he's a figure! Desperate character. Simply spoiling for a fight. We are keeping him back in the district until he's needed.'
- Как патруль пройдёт - через траншею и двигай дальше... - Будешь ждать в Фёдоровке... На рожон не лезь! Главное, будь осторожен! (В. Богомолов, Иван) — 'As soon as the patrol passes, slip across the trench and keep moving... You'll wait in Fedorovka. Don't stick your neck out. Be careful whatever you do!'

15 Serra, José Francisco Correa da
(1750-1823)Known in history by the name "the Abbé Correa da Serra," this famous Portuguese figure of the Enlightenment, man of letters, diplomat, traveler, botanist, and intellectual spent many years abroad in Great Britain, Italy, and the young republic of the United States. Patronized by the powerful, rich Duke of Lafões and ordained as a priest at age 25, Correa da Serra received a doctorate in Italy two years later and soon undertook diplomatic missions abroad for Portugal. Minister for Portugal in the United States of America from 1816 to 1820, he became a close friend and longtime correspondent of Thomas Jefferson. In historic Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's stately home, in recent restorations one bedroom has been officially designated as Correa da Serra's room. Correa da Serra was one of the founders of the Lisbon Academy of Sciences and had a wide correspondence with the scientific minds of the French Enlightenment. He was honored for his contributions to the field of botany in a number of other countries as well. In 1822, at the end of his life, he was elected to the new Constitutional Cortes in Lisbon.Historical dictionary of Portugal > Serra, José Francisco Correa da

16 Abel, John Jacob
SUBJECT AREA: Medical technology[br]b. 19 May 1857 near Cleveland, Ohio, USAd. 26 May 1938 Baltimore, Maryland, USA[br]American pharmacologist and physiologist, proponent of the "artificial kidney" and the isolator of pure insulin.[br]Born of German immigrant farming stock, his early scientific education at the University of Michigan, where he graduated PhB in 1883, suffered from a financially dictated interregnum of three years. In 1884 he moved to Leipzig and worked under Ludwig, moving to Strasbourg where he obtained his MD in 1888. In 1891 he was able to return to the University of Michigan as Lecturer in Materia Medica and Therapeutics, and in 1893 he was offered the first Chair of Pharmacology at Johns Hopkins University, a position he occupied until 1932. He was a pioneer in emphasizing the importance of chemistry, in its widest sense, in medicine and physiology. In his view, "the investigator must associate himself with those who have laboured in fields where molecules and atoms rather than multi-cellular tissues or even unicellular organisms are the units of study".Soon after coming to Baltimore he commenced work on extracts from the adrenal medulla and in 1899 published his work on epinephrine. In later years he developed an "artificial kidney" which could be used to remove diffusible substances from the blood. In 1913 he was able to demonstrate the existence of free amino-acids in the blood and his investigations in this field foreshadowed not only the developments of blood and plasma transfusion but also the possibility of the management of renal failure.From 1917 to 1924 he moved to a study of the hormone content of pituitary extracts, but in 1924 he suddenly transferred his attention to the study of insulin. In 1925 he announced the discovery of pure crystalline hormone. This work at first failed to gain full acceptance, but as late as 1955 the full elucidation of the protein structure of insulin proved the final culmination of his studies.Abel's dedication to laboratory research and his disdain for matters of administration may explain the relative paucity of worldy honours awarded to such an outstanding figure.[br]Principal Honours and DistinctionsFRS.Bibliography1913, "On the removal of diffusible substances from the circulating blood by means of dialysis", Transactions of the Association of American Physiologists.Further Reading1939, Obituary Notices, Fellows of the Royal Society, London: Royal Society.1946, Biographical Memoir: John Jacob Abel. 1857–1938, Washington, DC: National Academy of Sciences.MG
