         ♦ Илюша болезненно ему улыбался, всё ещё не в силах сказать слова. Коля вдруг поднял руку и провёл для чего-то своею ладонью по волосам Илюши (Достоевский 1). Ilyusha kept smiling wanly, still unable to say a word. Kolya suddenly reached out and for some reason stroked Ilyusha's hair with his hand (1a).
         ♦ Когда день полон грохота и человек по уши погружён в котёл войны, он не в силах понять, увидеть свою жизнь... (Гроссман 2). When a man is plunged up to his neck into the cauldron of war, he is quite unable to look at his life and understand anything... (2a).
         ♦ Ноги у Лёньки гудели. Он сидел неподвижно, не в силах пошевелиться (Семёнов 1). Lyonka's legs throbbed painfully. He sat motionless, incapable of stirring (1a).
         ♦ В конце 1936 года Коган, переведённый к тому времени в Ярославль, бросился под поезд, не в силах больше переносить ожидания ареста (Гинзбург 1).

         ♦ Они [чегемские старцы] как бы осознают, что происходящее должно было быть ими остановлено, но понимая, что не в силах ничего сделать, они чувствуют гнёт вины за собственное молчание, оскверненность своей духовной власти (Искандер 5). They [the elders of Chegem] seem to recognize that they should have stopped what is happening, and though they realize that they are powerless to do anything, they feel oppressed by guilt for their own silence, the defilement of their spiritual authority (5a).

Я знаю, это в ваших силах. Сделайте это, я прошу вас" (Пастернак 1). "Yurii Andreievich...do be sensible, go off to Mademoiselle for a minute, have a drink of water and come back, please, as I've always known you till now and as I want you to be.

         ♦ "Свободу вы у меня давно отняли, а вернуть её не в ваших силах, ибо её нет у вас самого" (Солженицын 3). "You took my freedom away long ago, and you don't have the power to return it because you don't have it yourself" (3a).
         ♦ "Скоро тут произойдёт невообразимая свалка. Предотвратить её не в наших силах" (Пастернак 1). "There will be an unimaginable mess here soon; it's beyond our power to avert it" (1a).

  • 63 सावित्री _sāvitrī

    सावित्री 1 A ray of light.
    -2 N. of a celebrated verse of the Rigveda, so called because it is addressed to the sun; it is also called गायत्री; q.v. for further information.
    -3 The ceremony of investi- ture with the sacred thread; आ षोडशाद् ब्राह्मणस्य सावित्री नातिवर्तते Ms.2.38.
    -4 N. of a wife of Brahman.
    -5 N. of Pārvatī.
    -6 N. of a wife of Kaśyapa.
    -7 An epithet of Sūryā (daughter of Savitṛi).
    -8 N. of the wife of Satyavat, king of Sālva. [She was the only daughter of king Aśvapati. She was so lovely that all the suitors that came to woo her were repul- sed by her superior lustre, and thus though she reached a marriageable age, she found no one ready to espouse her. At last her father asked her to go and find out a husband of her own choice. She did so, and having made her selection returned to her father, and told him that she had chosen Satyavat, son of Dyumatsena, king of Sālva, who being driven out from his kingdom was then leading a hermit's life along with his wife. When Nārada, who hap- pened to be present there, heard this, he told her as well as Aśvapati that he was very sorry to hear of the choice she had made, for though Satyavat was in every way worthy of her, yet he was fated to die in a year from that date, and in choosing him, therefore, Sāvitrī would be only choosing life-long widow-hood and misery. Her parents, therfore, naturally tried to dissuade her mind, but the high-souled maiden told them that her choice was unalterably fixed. Accordingly the marriage took place in due time, and Sāvitrī laid aside her jewels and rich apparel, and putting on the coarse garments of hermits, spent her time in serving her old father and mother-in-law. Still, though outwardly happy, she could not forget the words of Nārada, and as she counted, the days seemed to fly swifitly like moments, and the fated time, when her husband was to die, drew near. 'I have yet three days' thought she, 'and for these three days I shall observe a rigid fast.' She maintained her vow, and on the fourth day, when Satyavat was about to go to the woods to bring sacrificial fuel, she accompanied him. After having collected some fuel, Satyavat, being fatigued, sat down, and reposing his head on the bosom of Sāvitrī fell asleep. Just then Yama came down, snatched off his soul, and proce- eded towards the south. Sāvitrī saw this and fol- lowed the god who told her to return as her husband's term of life was over. But the faithful wife besought Yama in so pathetic a strain that he granted her boon after boon, except the life of her husband, until, being quite subdued by her devotion to her husband and the force of her eloquent appeal, the god relented and restored even the spirit of Satyavat to her. Deli- ghted she returned, and found her husband as if roused from a deep sleep, and informing him of all that had occurred, went to the hermitage of her father-in-law who soon reaped the fruits of the boons of Yama. Sāvitrī is regarded as the beau ideal or high- est pattern of conjugal fidelity, and a young married woman is usually blessed by elderly females with the words जन्मसावित्री भव, thus placing before her the example of Sāvitrī for lifelong imitation.]
    -Comp. -पतितः, -परिभ्रष्टः a man of any one of the first three castes not invested with the sacred thread at the proper time; cf. व्रात्य; सावित्रीपतिता व्रात्या व्रात्यस्तोमादृते क्रतोः Y.1.38; Ms.2.39; तान् सावित्रीपरिभ्रष्टान् व्रात्यानिति विनि- र्दिशेत् Ms.1.2.
    -व्रतम् N. of a particular fast kept by Hindu women on the last three days of the bright half of Jyeṣṭha to preserve them from widow- hood.
    -सूत्रम् the sacred thread (यज्ञोपवीत).

  • 65 Burgi, Jost

    SUBJECT AREA: Horology
    [br]
    b. 28 February 1552 Lichtensteig, Switzerland
    d. 31 January 1632 Kassel, Germany
    [br]
    Swiss clockmaker and mathematician who invented the remontoire and the cross-beat escapement, also responsible for the use of exponential notation and the calculation of tables of anti-logarithms.
    [br]
    Burgi entered the service of Duke William IV of Hesse in 1579 as Court Clockmaker, although he also assisted William with his astronomical observations. In 1584 he invented the cross-beat escapement which increased the accuracy of spring-driven clocks by two orders of magnitude. During the last years of the century he also worked on the development of geometrical and astronomical instruments for the Royal Observatory at Kassel.
    On the death of Duke Wilhelm in 1603, and with news of his skills having reached the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolph II, in 1604 he went to Prague to become Imperial Watchmaker and to assist in the creation of a centre of scientific activity, subsequently becoming Assistant to the German astronomer, Johannes Kepler. No doubt this association led to an interest in mathematics and he made significant contributions to the concept of decimal fractions and the use of exponential notation, i.e. the use of a raised number to indicate powers of another number. It is likely that he was developing the idea of logarithms at the same time (or possibly even before) Napier, for in 1620 he made his greatest contribution to mathematics, science and, eventually, engineering, namely the publication of tables of anti-logarithms.
    At Prague he continued the series of accurate clocks and instruments for astronomical measurements that he had begun to produce at Kassel. At that period clocks were very poor timekeepers since the controller, the foliot or balance, had no natural period of oscillation and was consequently dependent on the driving force. Although the force of the driving weight was constant, irregularities occurred during the transmission of the power through the train as a result of the poor shape and quality of the gearing. Burgi attempted to overcome this directly by superb craftsmanship and indirectly by using a remontoire. This device was wound at regular intervals by the main driving force and fed the power directly to the escape wheel, which impulsed the foliot. He also introduced the crossbeat escapement (a variation on the verge), which consisted of two coupled foliots that swung in opposition to each other. According to contemporary evidence his clocks produced a remarkable improvement in timekeeping, being accurate to within a minute a day. This improvement was probably a result of the use of a remontoire and the high quality of the workmanship rather than a result of the cross-beat escapement, which did not have a natural period of oscillation.
    Burgi or Prague clocks, as they were known, were produced by very few other makers and were supplanted shortly afterwards by the intro-duction of the pendulum clock. Burgi also produced superb clockwork-driven celestial globes.
