It was also common to force affected seafaring nations of non-Muslim faith to pay protection money or tribut ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

''Zaide'' (originally, ''Das Serail'') is an unfinished German-language opera, K. 344, written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1780. Emperor Joseph II, in 1778, was in the process of setting up an opera company for the purpose of performing German opera. One condition required of the composer to join this company was that he should write a comic opera. At Salzburg in 1779 Mozart began work on a new opera (now known as ''Zaide'' although Mozart did not give it such a title). It contains spoken dialogue, which also classifies it as a ''Singspiel'' (literally, "singing play"). Only the arias and ensembles from the first two acts were composed. Missing are an overture and third act. It was popular at the time for operas to depict the rescue of enslaved Westerners from Muslim courts, since Muslim pirates were preying on Mediterranean shipping, particularly to obtain slaves for various purposes. This story portrays Zaide's effort to save her beloved, Gomatz. Mozart was composing ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Gundulić's major works—the Epic poetry, epic poem ''Osman'', the pastoral play ''Dubravka (drama), Dubravka'', and the religious Poetry, poem ''Tears of the Prodigal Son'' (based on the Parable of the Prodigal Son)—are examples of Baroque stylistic richness and, frequently, rhetorical excess.

Osman Warning
A death threat is a threat, often made anonymously, by one person or a group of people to kill another person or group of people. These threats are often designed to intimidate victims in order to manipulate their behaviour, in which case a death threat could be a form of coercion. For example, a death threat could be used to dissuade a public figure from pursuing a criminal investigation or an advocacy campaign. Legality In most jurisdictions, death threats are a serious type of criminal offence. Death threats are often covered by coercion statutes. For instance, the coercion statute in Alaska says: In the United States, some judges during a legal proceeding make death threats stating they hope the defendant will die in prison. An American judge was also removed from their positions due to making death threats towards children while off the bench. Methods A death threat can be communicated via a wide range of media, among these letters, newspaper publications, telephone ...

Osman (video Game)
''Osman'' (also known as ''Cannon-Dancer'') is a side-scrolling action platforming game produced by Mitchell Corp. that was released as a coin-operated arcade game in 1996. Many ex-Capcom staff including Kouichi Yotsui (credited as Isuke), worked on the original arcade version of '' Strider'' and designed ''Osman'' as an unofficial sequel to ''Strider''. Yotsui directed both titles. In contrast to ''Strider''s futuristic Kazakh-Soviet setting, ''Osman'' is set in a neon-lit cyberpunk Arabian setting, while Strider Hiryu is replaced by a Middle-Eastern protagonist named Osman (Kirin) who fights without any weapons. 1UP.com included the game in its "Games to Play Before You Die" list. The game's bizarre plot supposedly mocks director Kouichi Yotsui's experience at Capcom after ''Strider''. Gameplay The controls of ''Osman'' consist of an eight-way joystick for moving the character, and three action buttons for attacking, jumping, and activating a special attack which will destr ...
