Petrus Borel
Joseph-Pierre Borel d'Hauterive, known as Petrus Borel (26 June 1809 – 14 July 1859), was a French writer of the Romantic movement. History Petrus Borel was born in Lyon on 26 June 1809, the twelfth of fourteen children of an ironmonger. He studied architecture in Paris but abandoned it for literature. Nicknamed ''le Lycanthrope'' ("Wolfman") and the centre of the circle of Bohemians in Paris, Borel was noted for his extravagant and eccentric style of writing, foreshadowing Surrealism. He was occasionally captured in drypoint by Marcellin Desboutin. Petrus Borel was not commercially successful and was eventually directed to a minor civil service post by his friend Théophile Gautier. Borel is considered to be one of the '' poète maudits'', like Aloysius Bertrand or Alice de Chambrier, and is said to have influenced Baudelaire and Breton. Petrus Borel was the subject of a 1954 biography by Irish literary critic Enid Starkie called ''Petrus Borel: The Lycanthrope''. In ...

Taxonomy The red steenbras was first formally described in 1830 as ''Dentex rupestris'' by the French zoologist Achille Valenciennes in '' Histoire naturelle des poissons'' which he wrote with Georges Cuvier.

Petrus Killings
The Petrus killings (portmanteau of ) were a series of extrajudicial executions in Indonesia that occurred between 1983 and 1985 under President Suharto's New Order regime. Without due process, estimated thousands of criminals and other offenders (including alleged political dissents) were killed by undercover Indonesian Army death squads and secret police forces. Their bodies were then placed in public places which terrorized an unaware populace. The executions were part of a government effort to reduce crime and estimates of the death toll have ranged from 300 to 10,000. Origin of name The term ''Petrus'' is derived from the Indonesian backronym containing the words ''penembak misterius'' (mysterious shooter), referring the undercover and anonymous nature of the death squads. It is also known colloquially as "''dar der dor''", which is an Indonesian onomatopoeia for the sound of a gunshot. ''Petrus'' is also the Indonesian version of the name Peter. Background Suharto came to ...
