28 Wood, Henry Alexander Wise
SUBJECT AREA: Paper and printing[br]b. 1 March 1866 New York, USAd. 9 April 1939 USA[br]American manufacturer and inventor of printing machinery, including a stereotype casting machine.[br]The son of a Congressman and mayor of New York, Wood was educated at Media Academy in Pennsylvania, specializing in scientific subjects. The death of his father in 1881 prevented his going on to college and he went to work at the Campbell Printing and Manufacturing Company, of which he became President in 1896. In the meantime, he had married the daughter of J.L.Brower, the previous head of the company. Later business consolidations brought into being the Wood Newspaper Machine Corporation.Wood was responsible for a series of inventions that brought great benefit to the newspaperprinting processes. Most notable was the Autoplate, patented first in 1900 and finally in 1903. This enabled a whole page of newspaper type to be cast in metal at once, saving much time and effort in the forming of stereotypes; this invention earned him the Elliott Cresson gold medal of the Franklin Institute in 1909. Other inventions were the Autoreel, a high-speed press-feeder device, and the Autopaster, which automatically replaced a spent paper roll with a new one in a newspaper press, without the need to stop the press. Wood's improved presses and inventions increased the speed of newspaper production from 24,000 to 60,000 copies per hour, printed and folded.He was also much interested in aviation and was an early member of the Aero Club of America, becoming its Vice-President for six years. He helped to found the magazine Flying and was its Editor from 1911 to 1919. He had predicted the part played by aircraft and submarines during the Second World War and was invited to join a panel of consulting inventors and engineers to assist the development of the US Navy. He was soon at odds with the authorities, however, and he resigned in 1915. After the war, he spent time in vigorous campaigning against immigration, America's entry into the League of Nations and on many other issues, in all of which he was highly controversial. Nevertheless, he retained his interest in the newspaper-machinery business, remaining President of his company until 1935 and Chairman of the Board thereafter. In 1934 he became Chairman of the NRA Code Authority of the newspaper-machine industry.[br]Further ReadingObituary, 1939, New York Times (10 April).

38 impression
•• impressionistic, impressionist, impression
•• * Даже в наиболее полных словарях (в том числе Новом БАРСе) слово impressionistic описано не полностью. Перевод везде отсылает к художникам-импрессионистам (кстати, у нас под словом «импрессионизм» чаще всего подразумевают французских художников конца XIX века, американцы же говорят о них French Impressionists и могут сказать impressionistic artist о современном художнике). Но вот это слово в контексте, не имеющем отношения к искусству:
•• Statistics on this controversial subject are scarce, and most of the evidence is impressionistic and anecdotal. (Richard Pipes) (О слове anecdotal cм. в «Моем несистематическом словаре»).
•• Это употребление impressionistic не отражено и в известных мне английских толковых словарях. В Webster’s Third New International Dictionary есть определение и пример на слово impressionism: a vague and subjective response ( as to a work of art).
•• Her attack is almost always human, rather than critical, highly personal, degenerating occasionally into vague impressionism. (Mark Scherer)
•• Идя от этого определения, можно искать контекстуальный перевод impressionistic «на пересечении» слов субъективный, отрывочный, неполный, разрозненный (как видим, значения слов impressionistic и anecdotal в данном случае сближаются) и т.д. Можно развернуть в основанный на субъективных впечатлениях.
•• Интересное употребление слова impressionistic в сочетании с factors:
•• But the competition over which candidate will score better on one of the most common questions asked by pollsters – who “ understands the problems of people like you” - is influenced by many factors. Some are economic, others more impressionistic. (Washington Post)
•• Видимо, единственно верный перевод – субъективные. Встречается не только impressionistic, но и impressionist – в значении, в зависимости от контекста, субъективный или эскизный:
•• At its best, Fahrenheit 9/11 is an impressionist burlesque of contemporary American politics that culminates in a somber lament for lives lost in Iraq. (Wall Street Journal) - В своих лучших проявлениях « Фаренгейт 9/11» - субъективное, гротескное изображение политической жизни сегодняшней Америки, кульминацией которого становится плач о погибших в Ираке.
•• В англо-русских словарях (и многих толковых словарях английского языка) отсутствует и значение слова impressionist – entertainer, theater or television performer who mimics the way well-known people speak and behave, usually in a humorous and exaggerated way – комик-пародист. Первоисточник этого значения – impression как пародия, имитация и даже звукоподражание. Определение в American Heritage Dictionary: A humorous imitation of the voice and mannerisms of a famous person done by an entertainer. Сочетаемость: he does impressions of X/Y/Z. Еще это называется takeoff (определение в AHD: an imitative caricature or burlesque) и sendup (чаще в глагольной форме, опять-таки см. в AHD: to make a parody of: “grandiloquently eccentric but witty verbiage...that would send up the nastiness of suburban London.”( New York))
•• А вот слово parody, хотя и существует в английском языке, но употребляется редко, а в переносном смысле («пародия на правосудие», например) говорят travesty – a travesty of justice. В общем, многие из этих слов – в той или иной мере «ложные друзья».
