“I don’t know with what weapons World War III will be fought, but I know that World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.”

AGORA (2009) O, tarihin gördüğü en etkileyici ve ilgi çekici kadınlardan biriydi. Hem belinden aşağıya kadar uzanan sarı saçlarıyla göz kamaştıracak, nefes kesecek kadar güzel, hem de adını matematikçi, filozof ve astronom olarak tarihe yazdıracak kadar zeki bir kadın. Ve ne trajiktir ki ölümüyle bile unutulmayacak bir kadın. Üzerine çullanan onlarca erkeğin darbeleriyle son nefesini veren, cesedi sokaklarda sürüklenip, eti kemiklerinden midye kabukları yardımıyla ayrılan ama ne olursa olsun tarihin unutulmazları arasına giren bir kadın. Yani 45 yaşındayken bu dünyadan göçüp giden İskenderiyeli Hypatia.

German scientists are to begin identifying thousands of brain specimens belonging to people killed by the Nazis because they had a disability or were ill.
The three-year research project into the specimens in the Max Planck institutes’ possession, which will begin in June, aims to build a database listing the names of all “euthanasia” victims. “It will include basic biographical data on the victims, their institutional treatment, and the criteria used to select the victims,” the Munich-based, non-profit Max Planck Society said in a statement.
“The manner of their death will also be documented along with data on the removal of the brain … and the research carried out on [it].”
Adolf Hitler’s so-called “euthanasia” programme, in which doctors and scientists actively participated, sought to exterminate the sick, physically and mentally disabled people, those with learning disabilities and those considered social “misfits”.
Between January 1940 and August 1941, doctors systematically gassed more than 70,000 people at six sites in German-controlled territory, until public outrage forced them to end the overt killing. But tens of thousands more died across Europe before the Nazis were defeated in 1945, through starvation, neglect or deliberate overdoses administered by caregivers. Many also underwent bizarre medical experiments and forced sterilisations because of their supposed genetic inferiority.

A reminder, in Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban there is a wizard reading ‘A Brief History Of Time’ by Stephen Hawking. Now just imagine how great his work has to be so that even a wizard is curious about it! Wands up for the loss of this genius and that brain of his! /*
