Hoàng Xuân Hãn
Hoàng Xuân Hãn ( Đức Thọ, 1908 – Paris, 10 March 1996) was a Vietnamese professor of mathematics, linguist, historian and educationalist. He was Minister of Education in the short-lived 1945 cabinet of historian Trần Trọng Kim and drafted and issued the first Vietnamese education program. Like many of the academics in the five-month Trần Trọng Kim government, afterwards Hãn returned to academic studies. He was the first Vietnamese historian to fully study the history of Nôm texts by the 17th Century Jesuits such as Girolamo Maiorica.Wynn Wilcox -Vietnam and the West: New Approaches 2010 - Page 26 "That Vietnamese scholar was Hoàng Xuân Hãn, to whom a colleague had introduced Schurhammer's article shortly after its publication. At that time, Xuân Hãn was pursuing research in Europe and, while browsing old Vietnamese documents ..."

Historian
A historian is a person who studies and writes about the past and is regarded as an authority on it. Historians are concerned with the continuous, methodical narrative and research of past events as relating to the human race; as well as the study of all history in time. Some historians are recognized by publications or training and experience.Herman, A. M. (1998). Occupational outlook handbook: 1998–99 edition. Indianapolis: JIST Works. Page 525. "Historian" became a professional occupation in the late nineteenth century as research universities were emerging in Germany and elsewhere. Objectivity During the '' Irving v Penguin Books and Lipstadt'' trial, people became aware that the court needed to identify what was an "objective historian" in the same vein as the reasonable person, and reminiscent of the standard traditionally used in English law of " the man on the Clapham omnibus". This was necessary so that there would be a legal benchmark to compare and contrast the sch ...

People Educated At Lycee Albert Sarraut
A person (plural, : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal obligation, legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its us ...

Girolamo Maiorica
Girolamo Maiorica ( pt, Jerónimo Majorica; chữ Nôm: ; Vietnamese alphabet: '; 1591–1656) was a 17th-century Italian Jesuit missionary to Vietnam. He is known for compiling numerous Roman Catholic works written in the Vietnamese language's demotic chữ Nôm script, both on his own and with assistance from local converts. Maiorica was one of the first authors of original Nôm prose. His works are seen as a milestone in the history of Vietnamese literature. Biography Maiorica was born in Naples, probably in 1581, 1589, or 1591. He entered the Jesuit order on 19 May 1605. He was ordained a priest by Cardinal Robert Bellarmine in Rome before heading to Lisbon en route to the Far East in 1619. Maiorica initially stopped in Goa, then arrived in Macau, intending to proselytize in Japan. However, by 1619, Japan had begun persecuting Christians, so he went instead to Makassar and remained there for a year. Afterwards, he returned to Macau and traveled to Fai-Fo (present-day Hội ...

Đức Thọ

For example, in the German language, the country is known as from the Old High German , in Arabic as ''Almania (ألمانيا),'' in Spanish as and in French as from the name of the Alamanni tribe, in Italian as from the Latin (although the German people are called ), in Polish as from the Proto-Slavic ''nemets'', and in Finnish and Estonian as and respectively from the name of the Saxon tribe. List of area names In general, the names for Germany can be arranged in six main groups according to their origin: 1. From Old High German ''diutisc'' or similar *Afrikaans: ''Duitsland'' *Chinese: (pinyin: ''Déyìzhì''), commonly ( trad.) or ( simp.) (''Déguó''; "Dé" from , and "guó" means "country") *Danish: ''Tyskland'' *Dutch: ''Duitsland'' * Fa ...
