The WAGR Esl class were express steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR). The Esl resulted from fitting the Es class with larger 19-inch diameter cylinders. The 'l' suffix stands for 'large', with 's' meaning 'superheated', hence E class superheated large-cylinders or Esl. By the early 1940s, the Esl designation was folded into the Es designation like the Eso classification, though they continued with Esl modifications. None survived into preservation.

The WAGR Eso class were express steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR). The Eso was a designation reserved for Es class (superheated E class) locomotives that retained their original 17-inch cylinders in contrast to those that were rebuilt with 19-inch cylinders and classed Esl. By the early 1940s, the Eso classification was abandoned being replaced by the regular Es designation which all under the former classification carried until their withdrawals.

The WAGR Ea class were a total of 3 steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1934 to 1939. The Ea class were the result of rebuilding several E class engines with less weight to run on lighter-laid lines, this was a success. Es class locos were also converted, becoming the Eas class. Despite being successful all had been reverted to their original form by the 1940s. None of the Ea class survives today, however, one Es class is displayed at the Bassendean Railway Museum.

The WAGR Eas class were a total of 4 steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1934 to 1937. The Eas class were the result of altering the Es class to weigh less in order to work on lighter-laid lines around the network, where more powerful locos were required. Despite the modifications being a success all were reconverted to Es class engines from 1936 to 1937, exactly why isn't known.

The WAGR Ec class were a total of 20 heavy-duty steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1901 to 1925. The Ec class were built by the Baldwin Locomotives Works (BLW) of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA as compounds in place of the awaiting E class, which were also 4-6-2s from Britain. They were assembled at Fremantle Railway Workshops and entered service on the Eastern Goldfields Railway from Northam to Southern Cross. Some were converted to weigh less to work on lighter-laid lines, being classed the Eca class. Overall the engines were considered a success and were significantly rebuilt from 1923 to 1925 like other aging locomotives that were considered a success, in this form they were reclassified the L class.

The WAGR Eca class were a total of 9 steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1920 to 1925. The Eca class were the result of reducing the weight of the Ec class 4-6-2 heavy-duty goods engines to run on lighter-laid lines that required more motive power. Conversions started in 1920 but were halted in 1923 when all Ec and Eca class locos were drastically rebuilt as the L class to modernise them for the 1920s.

The WAGR L class were a total of 20 steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1924 to 1958. The L class were the result of significantly rebuilding the Ec class 4-6-2 heavy goods engines with new boilers, cylinders, and valve gear at Midland Railway Workshops. They operated goods services from Northam to Wongan Hills and onto Mullewa, while also running to Meekatharra on the Northern Railway. One-point cylinder lubrication was first trialled on the L class being so successful that it became standard on all WAGR stock from then on. The class became riddled with metal fatigue in the 1930s, having new frames fitted to 14 of the class up until 1948. The L class were displaced by the W class and the last was scrapped around 1965 Gallery Western Australian Government Railways locomotives

the earliest forts in india were influenced by hindu and muslim architecture in medieval times. british forts initially used simple designs, but many were privately owned. the term "fort" became common in india in the 17th-19th century, with local languages suffixing fort names with local words. three major construction methods were used: earthen ramparts, rubble with earth on the outside, stone and masonry work, and the strongest. by the 4th century bce, fortified cities were common in india, with the largest being between mathura and magadha. the most notable description is one by megasthenes, who described pataliputra as guarded by a ditch with wooden walls and 570 towers and 54 gates. ancient indian forts, primarily found in shastras and stupa reliefs, were characterized by crenellations, embrasures, and sloping walls. the arthashastra, an indian treatise on military strategy, identifies six major types of forts based on their defense modes: jala-durga (water fort), antardvipa-durga (island fortress), sthala-durga (plain fortress), dhanvana- or maru-durga (desert fort), giri-durga (hill fort), prantara-durga (flat hill summit), giri-parshva-durga (fortifications and civilian structures extend down to the hill slope), guha-durga (valley surrounded by hills), vana-durga (forest fort), khanjana-durga (built on a fen surrounded by thorny forests), sthambha-durga (built in the forest among tall trees), mahi-durga (earthen fort), parigha-durga (surrounded by earthen walls), panka-durga (surrounded by fens or quicksand), and niri-durga (human fort). each type had its own advantages and disadvantages. medieval indian forts underwent significant changes due to the arrival of muslims and the introduction of artillery in the 16th century. these changes were similar to western forts with gunpowder, lowering walls, thickening walls, and pushing out bastions. muslim forts featured a citadel in the center and more space between the citadel and walls. gates were highly decorated, with two distinct styles: hindu with a lintel and mughal with an arch. forts used natural rock formations for defense against attacks, and the main gate was mostly facing north. stone was the primary material for building fortifications in medieval india, with three construction methods: earthen ramparts, earth mixed with rubble, and mortar. earthen ramparts allowed for higher and steeper walls, but the earthen core could accumulate water, requiring drainage channels. the third method involved using mortar, which was strong and long-lasting. in medieval india, burying humans in fort walls was believed to keep evil spirits away. the sri qila in delhi buried 8,000 mughal skulls, and purandar fort one had a first-born son and wife buried in the foundation. other fortifications included rock cut water cisterns, ponds, wells, and lakes. parapets with merlons and loopholes were unique in indian fortifications, with merlons being semicircular and pointed at the top. loopholes were made in both merlons and crenels, either looking forward or downward. the shape of loopholes and merlons varied across the castle. the british established trading posts along the coast to provide security against local rajas and european rival nations. forts like mumbai, fort william, and fort st george were constructed, initially simple due to the east india company

Russtone Brand is a Soviet and Russian company founded in 1986 by Yevgeny Beryoza. The company is engaged in the production of acoustic, electric and bass guitars. At the end of 2004, the Moscow distribution company "Grand Mystery" acquired the rights to the Russtone trademark and, with the help of Shamray Guitars, they have launched the development of the new generation of Russtone instruments. History The company was founded in 1986 in Moscow by a musician Yevgeny Beryoza. The Russtone trademark was soon registered too. Having started work during a period of acute shortage of electric guitars in the country, Russtone found itself at the peak of demand. The beginning of the brand's history Until the mid-1990s, the demand for custom and mass-produced guitars far outweighed the production capacity of the company, which had up to 30 employees. Since 1995, the company experienced a sharp decline in demand for Russtone electric guitars, due to the saturation of the musical instrument market with high-quality foreign-made instruments. As a result, the company sharply reduces production. In 1998, Russtone expands by opening a second production facility in the former Lear factory. After some time, the employees who remained at the original workshop under the leadership of Alexander Vladimirovich Shamray left Russtone to create a separate company called Shamray Guitars. Company resale In 2001, the production of electric guitars under the Russtone brand is suspended. In 2004, the Russtone trademark was bought by the Grand Mystery company, which, in collaboration with Shamray Guitars, resumed the production of electric guitars under the Russtone brand. The Russtone brand has also established the manufacture and production of guitar strings and guitar combo amplifiers.

The Kruševo Republic sometimes spelled as Krushevo Republic (, ) was a short-lived 10 days political entity created in 1903 by Macedonian revolutionaries from the Macedonian Revolutionary Organization during the Ilinden Uprising in the city of Kruševo, modern day Macedonia. Some Macedonian and Bulgarian historians mention how this is one of the first republics in the Balkan. The republic is infamous in Macedonian media as being one of the first independent Macedonian countries since the Middle ages empire of Samuil, although despite all of this the republic only lasted 10 days before being dissolved after the Battle of Mečkin Kamen. The flag of the Republic is also used for the modern day city of Kruševo. The Republic also had a parliament consisting of 60 members (20 Macedonians, 20 Aromanians and 20 Greeks) along with that the Council also elected an executive body—the Provisional Government—with six members (2 from each mentioned group) The Republic is also mentioned in the Macedonian anthem (also known as Denes nad Makedonija). History In the early 20th century, Kruševo was populated by a Macedonian population, Aromanians and Orthodox Albanians along with Greeks aswell with town inhabitants being ethnoreligiously split among various Ottoman millets, with Patriarchists being the largest community, followed by Exarchists and the Ullah millet for the Aromanians. According to the ethnographer Vasil Kanchov's statistics at that time the town's inhabitants counted: 4,950 Macedonians, 4,000 Vlachs (Aromanians) and 400 Orthodox Albanians. On 3 August 1903, rebels captured the town of Kruševo and established a revolutionary government. The entity existed only for 10 days: from 3 to 13 August, and was headed by Nikola Karev. He was a strong leftist, rejecting the nationalism of the ethnic minorities and favouring alliances with ordinary Muslims against the Sultanate, as well as supporting the idea of a Balkan Federation. there was a provisional goverment with 6 members whose duty was to promote law and order and manage supplies, finances, and medical care. Around this time the Kruševo Manifesto was published in the first days after the proclamation. Written by Nikola Kirov, it outlined the goals of the uprising, calling upon the Muslim population to join forces with the provisional government in the struggle against Ottoman tyranny, to attain freedom and independence. Initially surprised by the uprising, the Ottoman government took extraordinary military measures to suppress it. Pitu Guli's band (cheta) tried to defend the town from Ottoman troops coming from Bitola. The whole band and their leader (voivode) perished. After fierce battles near Mečkin Kamen, the Ottomans managed to destroy the Kruševo Republic, committing atrocities against the rebel forces and the local population. As a result of the gunnery, the town was set partially ablaze. After the plundering of the town by the Turkish troops and the Albanian bashi-bazouks, the Ottoman authorities circulated a declaration for the inhabitants of Kruševo to sign, stating that the Macedonian generals had committed the atrocities and looted the town. A few citizens did sign it under administrative pressure.

It is one of the Char Dham pilgrimage sites.The puri temple is also famous because many legends believe that Krishna's heart was placed there and the material that it is made from damages the heart so they have to change it every twelve years. Anantavarman Chodaganga - was a prominent king of the Eastern Ganga dynasty who ruled in 11-12th century AD. The Jagannath temple at Puri, Orissa was built by him in the 11th century. The Eastern Ganga dynasty reigned Kalinga from the 5th century AD to 15th century AD. In Hindu mythology, wasting food is considered a bad sign; the Temple crew follows the same. A total number of people visiting the temple varies between 2,000 to 2, 00,000 people every day. Miraculously, the Parsadam prepared every day is never wasted, not even a bite. The most interesting Buddhist claim has to do with an unknown substance called “Brahma" that lies inside the navel of the main idol, Jagannath. Hindus say that it was the original blue stone, but Buddhists say that this Brahma is Buddha's tooth relic that was brought from Kushi Nagar, where he died, to Puri.

The WAGR F class were a total of 57 freight steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1902 to 1972. The F class were built by Dübs & Coy of Glasgow, Scotland and later its successor the North British Locomotive Coy from 1902 to 1913 as 4-8-0 locomotives for use on goods trains. Throughout their years of service, they were frequently fitted with experimental equipment. Superheating of the F class began in 1924 and continued up to 1948 - resulting in the Fs class, though when they were relegated to shunting duties in the 1950s they were rebuilt to normal saturated locomotives for economic reasons. Two of the F class are preserved, No. 398 (452) at Collie, and Fs class No. 460 (407) at Bassendean Railway Museum. Western Australian Government Railways locomotives

The Fs class was the result of superheating the standard F class 4-8-0 goods engines improving fuel efficiency and creating greater haulage capacity. All but two of the F class would be superheated from 1923 to 1948 at Midland Railway Workshops. In the 1950s many of the Fs were rebuilt as saturated locos for shunting duties to improve the classes' economy. Fs class No. 460 is preserved at the Bassendean Railway Museum.

The WAGR K class were a total of 24 heavy freight side tank steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1893 to 1964. The K class were built by Neilson & Coy of Glasgow, Scotland from 1893 to 1898 for work on heavy goods trains on the Eastern Railway where upon their arrival they totally outclassed the B, G and later O classes. Some were superheated from 1915 to 1916, and one in 1929 as the Ks class however this was not a great success as by this time they were being used as shunters reducing the economic efficiency. When the F class arrived in 1902 the K class was reallocated to the South Western mainline to Collie, replacing the O class on goods traffic. After handling local goods around Perth and Kalgoorlie along with other regional centres they became relegated to purely shunting roles by the 1920s. The last K class was withdrawn in 1964, all were scrapped. Western Australian Government Railways locomotives

The Ks class were the result of superheating the standard K class 2-8-4 of 1893. Only six of the twenty-four total were superheated as by this time most were working as shunting meaning superheating them wasn't economically viable.

Especially in the United States, the term spree killer is used for someone who commit several murders, usually in a short period of time. Very often, the killings are done in different locations. There is disagreement about what 'short time' means: The US Bureau of Justice Statistics speaks about ""almost no time break between murders". Some academics say that there may be weeks or months between the murders. As an example, Andrew Cunanan killed five people over a period of three months. He is considered to be a spree killer. Crime

Context In 1237, during the conquest of the kingdom of Valencia, James I had gained control of the fortification of Puig Castle . With his troops weakened due to the conquests, he received the warning of a counterattack by the Muslim forces, in this way he marched towards Catalonia to gather more troops, leaving Guillem Aguiló in charge. In his absence, the Muslim king Zayyan ibn Mardanix attacked the fortification. During the battle, while part of his troops were fighting the Muslims, Guillem Aguiló advanced from behind the hill sounding numerous trumpets and carrying flags taken from nearby ships, with the royal pennant at the head, making the Muslims believe that it was of James I arriving with an army. According to Bernat Desclot's Chronicle, at that moment Saint George appeared with his own army of knights, allowing the Christians to win the battle. History On June 3, 1365, Pere the Ceremonious created the militia of the Centenar de la Ploma, initially called the Centenar of the Glorious Sant Jordi. After the Church of Sant Jordi in Valencia was consecrated on May 27, 1401, the Centenary commissioned an altarpiece for this church, which was made sometime between 1400 and 1420. Due to its dimensions and complexity, the work probably had several authors, mainly Marçal de Sax and Miquel Alcanyís, but also very likely Johan Utuvert and Gonçal Peris . In 1740 the altarpiece was still in the church, but it was demolished in 1807 and the altarpiece was lost until it appeared in Paris in 1864, dismantled in several pieces. After a period of negotiation, the altarpiece was bought by the South Kensington museum in London for 800 pounds or 20,000 francs, a high price for a work of this nature at the time. Since then, the altarpiece has been exhibited in that museum, now called the Victoria and Albert Museum . In 2010, negotiations began with the London museum for a temporary return of the altarpiece to Valencia, but ultimately they did not succeed. In 2019 the predella of the altarpiece, the part most in need of restoration, arrived at the Museum of Fine Arts in Valencia to be restored and analyzed, it remained on display between 2020 and 2021. The restoration lasted for a year and a half and made it possible to recover the original colors and brightness. Gallery

anton maskeliade (real name: anton andreevich sergeev, december 16, 1986, moscow) is a russian electronic musician, record producer, founder and professor of maskeliade music school, writer. biography anton andreevich sergeev was born on december 16, 1986 in moscow. from the very childhood anton was interested in music. in high school, together with his friend lev oborin, he created an indie rock band called "triton utonul", where anton sang and played the guitar. the band was active from 2000 to 2010. career solo career in 2012 anton became the first russian musician who entered into the onebeat international program. within one month anton together with other musicians from around the globe travelled throughout the usa, recorded collaborations, gave shows and participated in musical street-studios (improvised concerts with random strangers). it was at that time anton first started experimenting with sound and visual effects - he got driven by the circuit bending method which is based on random setting (or intentional breakage) of circuits in electronic devices (i.e. synthesizers or children's music toys). as a result, new musical or visual effects are generated. thus, at his gigs anton used re-soldered dendy game console which generated a distorted and glitch picture. from 2013 anton began to use leap motion controller that allows to control music flow by hands gesturing without touching the device itself. after, he mastered controlling music, animation and video flows at the same time, which later on became the highlight of his live shows. "it looks like you're a magician making enigmatic moves and passes and not music at all. you're like a charmer, enchanting the sound itself, - and that is quite impressive and cool". maskeliade himself calls his music an ephemeral being explaining that during live shows he always improvises, and in studio recordings he always leaves "raw pieces" of the first takes. in 2013 together with a team of musicians he launched maskeliade street studio - the first russian street studio where anybody could participate in making tracks. street studios were taken place in moscow at moscow city day, as well as at outline and fields festivals and garage museum of contemporary art. in the end of 2013 anton released his first ep "zoloto moyo". critics noted an unexpected combination presented as a collage of traditional, live (acoustic instruments and vocals) and digital (noises, clicks, glitches, tweaks and freezes) sounds. 2014: subtract the silence of myself in the beginning of 2014 anton released his debut lp subtract the silence of myself which was warmly welcomed by the media and got into the top albums of the year. «even though the roots of a method promoted by anton maskeliade could be found in the music of four tet, the books, and, for gog's sake, radiohead (i could easily imagine "chabrec" on "hail to the thief" sang by thom yorke), his final work doesn't look like a replica of forms already existing, but more like a man-made creation of a cracky (but in a good way!) local genius. in these noisy, wiggly songs there is a quirky, cartoonish energy manifested in a drum section which suddenly pops out of nowhere, or a choir uniting with anton's voice, or something else even more unexpected» anton and his music were mentioned in the guardian, rolling stone and snob. according to vice magazine, he was

The House of Commons of England was the lower house of the Parliament of England (which included Wales) from the 14th century to the union of England and Scotland in 1707. It was then replaced by the House of Commons of Great Britain. In 1801, with the union of Great Britain and Ireland, that house was in turn replaced by the House of Commons of the United Kingdom. The first parliament to invite representatives of the major towns was Montfort's Parliament in 1265. At the "Model Parliament" of 1295, representatives of the boroughs (including towns and cities) were admitted. It became the rule that each county send two knights of the shire, and that each borough send two burgesses. In 1341 the Commons met separately from the nobility and clergy for the first time, creating in effect an Upper Chamber and a Lower Chamber. The clergy and nobility became the House of Lords. While they were English possessions Calais, between 1372 and 1558, and Tournai, between 1513 and 1519, were represented in the Parliament. James I and Charles I came to depend on the parliament for taxation and the disputes resulted in the English Civil War. The armed forces of Parliament won the war. In December 1648 the House of Commons was purged by the New Model Army, which was supposed to be under the control Parliament. Pride's Purge was the only military coup in English history. Then Charles I was beheaded and the Upper House was abolished. The unicameral Parliament that was left was later called the Rump Parliament It only had a small selection of Members of Parliament approved by the army – some of whom were soldiers themselves. In 1653, when leading figures in this Parliament began to disagree with the army, it was dissolved by Oliver Cromwell. The monarchy and the House of Lords were both restored with the Commons in 1660. The influence of the Crown had been decreased, and was less after James II was deposed in the Glorious Revolution of 1688 and the Bill of Rights 1689 was enacted.

The WAGR M class were a total of 13 successful Garratt steam locomotives operated by the Western Australian Government Railways (WAGR) from 1912 to 1955. The M class was built by Beyer, Peacock & Coy from 1911 to 1913, they had recently negotiated the exclusive production of Garratt articulated engines manufactured out of the UK. The WAGR were the first to order Garratts of such size and quantity for a state system, playing a vital role in the global success of Garratt locomotives, the WAGR being somewhat of a trailblazer in this respect. The M class were powerful locos designed to be able to run on lighter-laid lines and around sharp 5-chain radius curves, which they did to great effect, being more powerful than the F class while also having far greater route availability. The second batch was ordered as superheated and became the Ms class, though a standard M class was converted in 1934. Withdrawals began in 1947, with the last withdrawn and scrapped in 1955, none were preserved. They were succeeded by the Msa class Garratts. Western Australian Government Railways locomotives

In Greek mythology, "Ponos" (Πόνος in Greek) is personified as the spirit of labor, toil, and hardship. He is often depicted as a winged youth, sometimes carrying a plough, symbolizing the effort and struggle involved in agricultural work. Ponos is considered one of the children of the primordial goddess Nyx, who personified the night. Ponos is associated with the challenges and difficulties that humans face in their daily lives, particularly in activities that require physical or mental exertion. He embodies the concept that hard work and perseverance are often necessary for achieving success and prosperity. While Ponos is not as prominent as some other figures in Greek mythology, his presence highlights the ancient Greeks' understanding of the importance of labor and the recognition that achieving one's goals often requires dedication and effort. It's worth noting that Ponos is not as well-known or widely referenced as some other Greek deities, and his mythology may not be as extensively detailed as figures like Zeus or Athena. Nevertheless, he remains an intriguing representation of the Greek perspective on the value of hard work and the challenges inherent in human endeavors.

Cazimierz Funk, also known as Kasimir Funk, was a Polish-American biochemist. He proposed the idea of vitamins in 1912, which he initially called "vital amines" or "vitamines." Achievements After reading an article by a Dutchman named Christiaan Eijkman, which said that people who ate brown rice were less likely to get beri-beri compared to those who only ate fully milled rice, a scientist named Funk tried to find the specific substance responsible for this. He was successful and named it "vitamine" because it contained an amine group. It was later called vitamin B3 (niacin), even though he initially thought it would be vitamin B1 (thiamine) and described it as the "anti-beri-beri-factor. In 1912, he suggested the existence of at least four vitamins: one to prevent beriberi, one for scurvy, one for pellagra, and one for rickets. He later published a book called "The Vitamines" in 1912 and received a research fellowship. Funk also suggested that other diseases like rickets, pellagra, coeliac disease, and scurvy could also be treated with vitamins. He was one of the early researchers to investigate pellagra, attributing it to changes in the corn milling process, although his findings were largely ignored. The "e" in "vitamine" was removed when it was realized that vitamins don't have to be nitrogen-containing amines. He suggested there are other essential nutrients, which we now call vitamins B1, B2, C, and D. In 1936, he figured out the structure of thiamine, but he wasn't the first to isolate it. Funk also studied hormones, diabetes, peptic ulcers, and cancer biochemistry. After coming back to the United States, he became the president of the Funk Foundation for Medical Research in 1940. In his later years, he focused on understanding the causes of cancers. Funk Award The Polish Institute of Arts and Sciences of America (PIASA) gives an award called the Casimir Funk Natural Sciences Award each year to outstanding Polish-American scientists. Previous winners of this award have included notable individuals like Nobel Laureate Roald Hoffmann, Aleksander Wolszczan, Hilary Koprowski, Peter T. Wolczanski, Wacław Szybalski, Zbyszek Darzynkiewicz, and Benoit Mandelbrot.

Petr Ginz (English: Peter Ginz; 1944) was a Czechoslovakian-born half-Jewish boy, who is known for his artworks, poems, and novels. His most popular work was Vedem (English: [We Are] In the Lead), a literary magazine which was avaliable in print between 1942 and 1944, in the Theresienstadt Ghetto. The publishers and editor-in-cheifs of the literary magazine were him and Hanuš Hachenburg. Biography Early life and activities Petr Ginz was born on in Prague, Czechoslovakia (in modern-day Czech Republic). He was the son of Otto Ginz and his spouse (wife) [[Mária Ginzová). His father was Jewish, whilst his mother was a Christian. This made Ginz half-Jewish. Ginz showed signs of high intelligence, before the age of 8. He wrote his first novel when he was 8 years old. He wrote four more novels, after that. The last novel was written and completed when he was 14, shortly before his transportation to the Theresienstadt Ghetto. The novels were mostly written in the style of Jules Verne, and were even illustrated with his own paintings. Ginz spoke two languages fluently from early childhood. His parents were very interested in studying and learning Esperanto, and thus this became Ginz' second native language, apart from Czech. Transportation to the Theresienstadt Ghetto In March 1939, the Germans invaded and occupied Czechoslovakia. Like with many other German-occupied countries, in German-occupied Czechoslovkia, anti-Semitic laws and strict curfews against Jews began, and persecution and transportation of Jews to ghettos and concentration camps began as well. Ginz left on a transport to the Theresienstadt Ghetto on 28 October 1942, at the age of 14. His younger sister Eva followed him and was transported to the Theresienstadt Ghetto, as well. Work and activity in the Theresienstadt Ghetto About two months after his transportation and arrival in the Theresienstadt Ghetto, Ginz founded a literary magazine named Vedem (English: [We Are] In the Lead). The first copies of the literary magazine were available in print in December 1942. The publishers and editor-in-chiefs of the popular literary magazine were Petr Ginz and Hanuš Hachenburg. Despite the horrible conditions of the ghetto, Ginz continued to study and write. Ginz even wrote a Czech–Esperanto dictionary and several short novels, which are currently lost. Transportation to the Auschwitz concentration camp On 28 or 29 September 1944, Ginz left on a transport from the Theresienstadt Ghetto to the Auschwitz concentration camp. There is debate on whether the transport took place on the 28th of September, or on the following day. At the time of the transport, Ginz had not yet recovered from a disease and was still ill. Death Ginz's precise date of death is rather disputed. It is however known that he died in the Auschwitz concentration camp. By the time Auschwitz was liberated by the Red Army on 27 January 1944, Ginz had already been deceased. He is said to have apparently died from suffocation whilst in the gas chambers. His death took place in or 1944. It is certain that Ginz did not survive the Holocaust.
