About Prafulla Chandra Ray, Srinivasa Ramanujan

                                  Prafulla Chandra Ray   Prafulla Chandra Ray was an eminent Indian scientist who is hailed as the “Father of Indian Pharmaceuticals”. His work on the nitrites and hyponitrites of metals, especially mercury, earned him fame worldwide. He was a recipient of the ‘Companion of the Order of the Indian Empire’, an honour that was conferred upon him in the year 1911.

Prafulla Chandra Ray was born on 2 August 1861 in Raruli-Katipara, a village in the District of Khulna (in present day Bangladesh). His early education started in his village school. He often played truant and spent his time resting comfortably on the branch of a tree, hidden under its leaves.  After attending the village school, he went to Kolkata, where he studied at Hare School and Metropolitan College. The lectures of Alexander Pedler in the Presidency College, which he used to attend, attracted him to chemistry, although his first love of subject was literature. He continued to take interest in literature and taught himself Latin and French at home. After obtaining a F.A. diploma from the University of Calcutta, he proceeded to the University of Edinburgh on a Gilchrist scholarship where he obtained both his B.Sc. and D.Sc. degrees.
            In 1888, Prafulla Chandra made his journey home to India. Initially he spent a year working with his famous friend Jagadish Chandra Bose in his laboratory. In 1889, Prafulla Chandra was appointed an Assistant Professor of nitrite and its derivatives brought him recognition from all over the world. Equally important was his role as a teacher - he inspired a generation of young chemists in India thereby building up an Indian School of Chemistry. Famous Indian scientists like Meghnad Saha and Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar were among his students.
Prafulla Chandra believed that the progress of India could be achieved only by industrialization. He set up the first chemical factory in India, with very minimal resources, working from his home. In 1901, this pioneering effort resulted in the formation of the Bengal Chemical and Pharmaceutical Works Ltd.

            He retired from the Presidency College in 1916, and was appointed as Professor of Chemistry at the University Science College. In 1921 when Prafulla Chandra reached 60 years, he donated, in advance, all his salary for the rest of his service in the University to the development of the Department of Chemistry and to the creation of two research fellowships. The value of this endowment was about two lakh rupees. He eventually retired at the age of 75. He lived an astute life and spent most of his life serving the poor and contributing toward scientific advancements. He remained associated with the ‘Sadharan Brahmo Samaj’ for most of his life and was even nominated the President of the division. A revered figure, many institutions have named after this scientist such as the ‘Acharya Prafulla Chandra College’, ‘Prafulla Chandra College’ in Calcutta, and the ‘Bagerhat P.C College’ of Bangladesh. In Prafulla Chandra, the qualities of both a scientist and an industrial entrepreneur were combined.

SHORT NOTE ABOUT:

Prafulla Chandra Ray (1861 – 1944) Dr. P. C. Ray was the legendary Indian chemist, Academiclan and entrepreneur. He was the founder of the Bengal Chemical Plant, India's first pharmaceutical company. He discovered Mercury nitrite and the Indian calcium tonic. Apart from or great scientist, he was also a freedom fighter and a great revelation of science. His book The Life and experience of a Bengali chemist was popular during British rule in India. He had a strong belief in Indian culture and Mahatma Gandhi. AIT Chandra Ray Prafulla was an Indian scientist with a time and a close friend of Sir J. C. Bose. The Government of India has paid homage to the form of publishing a postage stamp to its glory.

Prafulla Chandra's early upbringing began in her father's school. But he often stayed out of school. His master, a search for the missing in almost every house in the village, would be the culprit sitting comfortably in the branch of a tree, hidden beneath his leaves!

1870 he moved his family to Calcutta so that his children could have a better upbringing. This is where Prafulla Chandra was admitted to the Hare School. He took a great interest in the books and read a lot of them. But a severe Ruhr crisis forced him to leave school. The disease has been slowly overcome, but it has irreversibly damaged its health; He has become a lifelong victim of chronic digestion and insomnia. In his last days he thought sometimes as a blessing in disguise. For the rest of his life he was very stern about his food; And he had regular exercises.

Prafulla was now free from the tyranny of the boring school routine; Therefore he found time to satisfy his passion for the study of English and Bengali literature. When he was only ten years old, he learned Latin and Greek (languages of the ancient Europe). He also studied the history of England, Rome and Spain.

Two years later, Prafulla Chandra resumed her studies and changed 1874 to École Albert. He loved the attitude of the teachers of this school and his teaching method. The professors in turn were very impressed by their knowledge of English literature and other topics. They had the hope of their brilliant success in the

Tests. But Prafulla Chandra suddenly went to her village without resting on exams. I still had a secret desire to go back to Hare School. But when he sat down on the exams. He was sure to win prizes. Then it would be unfair to leave Albert School. So he left school before the exams.

However, Prafulla Chandra returned to Calcutta 1876 and continued her studies at the Albert School. His loving teachers allowed him not to leave school to return to Hare School. This time, Prafulla Chandra worked hard and got the first place on the exams. He won a number of awards. In 1879, he went to the entrance exam and entered the Metropolitan Institute (now called Vidyasagar College).

The financial situation of Henley Chandra was bad. It's getting worse. He was forced to sell the characteristics of the ancestors to pay his creditors. To save money, he changed his family back to Raruli. The children lived in the rooms of Calcutta

The Gilchrist Award

During his studies at the Metropolitan Institute, Prafulla Chandra attended the University of the presidency of Alexander's lectures on chemistry. The itinerary was an inspiring teacher and a skillful experiment. Her speeches influenced PrafullaChandra, the chemistry for her graduate studies in B.A.

The University of London has been conducting competitive trials at this time for the "Gilchrist Award" scholarship. Successful candidate for higher education could go abroad.

What a coincidence-if only he could get the purse!

Prafulla Chandra to prepare for the exam in secret. He was born into a very wealthy family, but now the wealth has disappeared. It was the only chance to go abroad. His knowledge of languages was very useful because one of the requirements was knowledge of Greek, Latin, Sanskrit and French or German. But he had to compete with thousands of others.

Only his brother and cousin knew at first. By and by the secret was laughed by a classmate who had a high on college exams, Prafulla Chandra said: "Oh, this very clever man name will soon be in the special edition of London's University Calendar"!»

A few months after the tests, the results were published in the state. Prafulla Chandra and an analysis of Bombay with the name Bahadurji had won the scholarship. The manager was full of joy and praise to Prafulla Chandra.

 

PrafullaChandra has now decided to go abroad. Her father gave her consent easily, but Martine Chandra worried about her mother's feelings. Consolation of his mother, by saying, "When I come from England, I will get a high position." "My first duty will be to settle the debt and repair our ancestors at home."

In England

En 1882 Prafulla Chandra went to Great Britain. The long ride in the seas was quite boring. Because of the stun, I couldn't eat enough food and it felt very low.

After a trip that lasted 33 days, came to London. The Indian students helped him in a number of ways. It was with enough wool clothing to withstand the bitter cold of Edinburgh where it had to go.

Edinburgh was 400,000 from London. Prafulla Chandra joined the B.SC class at the university. He was very influenced by the chemistry professor, Mr. Crum Brown, at the university. Chemistry became his first love.

Prafulla Chandra took the title of B.SC in 1885. He then made research in chemistry for the D.Sc. University degree. In 1887, he received this title on the basis of a diploma thesis on the results of his original work. Was only twenty seven years old at the time

The Professor-scientist

En 1888  Chandra returned to India. He had received letters from his director and professors. He hoped that with his help he could get a good position in the Department of Education. But at that time all the high places in this department were reserved for the English. Although Chandra had a doctorate in science, he found it difficult to obtain recognition in his own country. For a year he spent his time with his famous friend who was from his laboratory.

In 1889, Chandra was appointed an adjunct professor of Chemistry 4 at the University of the presidency of Calcutta. His salary was only 250 rupees per month. But he was very happy with his work. To teach with great enthusiasm. Soon he gained a great reputation as a successful and inspiring teacher.

 Chandra is not tired of saying that India's progress can only be achieved through industrialisation.

He advocated the use of the mother tongue as a means of teaching in schools. To write the text of the scientific books in Bengali.

Why should our patients depend on other countries?

85 years ago,  Chandra realized that India's progress was linked to industrialisation. Without them, there could be no salvation. Also the medicines for Indian patients had to come from foreign countries at that time. This put money in the pockets of traders in these countries. That must have been stopped. The drugs are supposed to be made in India. Martine Chandra wanted to do a start at the same time. But who wanted to do it?

 Chandra was not rich. The family estate was sold to repay his father's debts. Martine Chandra's salary was also rare. He was still daring in this groundbreaking attempt. He has prepared chemicals at home. Their work developed so quickly that their own society had to be formed.

But he needed capital--a capital city of only 800 rupees. But it has become difficult to even increase this small amount.

Despite all these difficulties, he founded "The chemical and pharmaceutical works of Bengal". 1894 died his father. It was a big hit for Chandra. The father was still in debt and needed thousands of rupees. Only a small part of the property remained. Even this was sold, so the debts could be refunded.

 

 Chandra has bravely followed the execution of the new plant. Initially, it was difficult to sell the chemicals produced there. They could not compete with imported materials. But a few friends, especially Dr. Amulya, Charlie, Bose, support his efforts. Dr. Bose was a leading physician and he has the support of many other doctors. The Bengal chemist has become a famous factory. But Dr. Bose died suddenly in 1898 because of a plague attack. His brother-in-law Sinha Chandra, who was an enthusiastic chemist in the company, died of accidental poisoning in the laboratory. One hit followed another and Chandra was very unhappy. The entire responsibility of the plant fell on his shoulders. He always confronted everything with courage.

This realization itself was great, however. Chandra's contribution to the Indian industry was even greater. directly or indirectly, it has helped to start many other factories. Textile factories, soap factories, candy, chemical industries, ceramics factories and publishers were fixed in time with their active cooperation. It was the driving force of the industrialisation of the country that began at that time.

                                             Srinivasa Ramanujan

Introduction:
Srinivasa Ramanujan, a poor uneducated Indian, was one of the greatest and most unusual mathematical geniuses who ever lived, was born on 22nd December in 1887 in Erode in Tamilnadu. He grew up in Kumbakonam where his father K. Sirnivasa Iyengar worked as an accountant in a sari shop. His mother Kamalat Ammal was a house wife and also sang songs at local temple.

Childhood:
Srinivasa Ramanujan started his schooling in 1892. He did not like school though he completed high school and tried twice to obtain a college education. But he failed both times because he was so obsessed by mathematics that he simply could not spend anytime on other subjects. He started excelling in mathematics. He came to think of his results or the source of his incredible outpouring of mathematics.

Early Life:
In 1909, when Ramanujan was 22 years old, he married 9 year old Janaki and took a clerical position in Madras Port Trust Office to support her and his mother who lived with them. While working as clerk, Ramanujan continued to pour out math results on wrapping paper in the office. He was tied up with mathematics in such a way that he forgot event to eat. His wife and his mother used to feed him at meal times so that he would continue writing while he ate.

Education & Research:
Fortunately, both the chairman and manager of  Madras Port Trust Office were engineers who recognized his extraordinary mathematical talent. They urged him to send his results to English mathematics. He wrote to HF Baker & E.W. Hobson of Cambridge University. Both returned his letters without comment.
Then on 16th June 1913, he wrote to G.H Hardy. He invited Ramanujan to come to England to study with him  Ramanujan accepted his invitation and arrived at Trinity college in April 1914. Hardy characterizes Ramanujan as a very great mathematician full of paradoxes, who defies all judgment. Ramanujan worked very hard in collaboration with G.H Hardy. He used to work 24 to 36 hrs at a stretch and collapse and sleep for 12 hrs or more at a time. As he was a vegetarian it was difficult for him for food in England. It resulted that he was affected by mysterious illness that might be vitamin B2 deficiency caused by his poor diet. He returned to India in 1919. He died a year later at the age of 32.

Conclusion:
Ramanujan left behind 3 notebooks, which he wrote before coming to England and which are filled with as many as 4000 results. GH Hardy showed a colleague of his Ramanujan’s strange letter which was crammed with as many as 60 mathematical theorems and formulas stated without any proofs. He made a significant contribution to mathematical analysis, number theory and continued fractions.

MAN’S PERIL( Bertrand Russell ) , THE DRUNKARD

                                                         MAN’S PERIL

         Bertrand Russell is a philosopher, Mathematician and sociologist. He is a prolific writer on a variety of subjects. He received Nobel Prize for literature in 1950. “Man’s peril “ is an in-depth analysis of the dangers confronting the modern world and ghostly consequences of atomic warfare. He implores and warns the combating nations in the world to set aside the conflicting ideologies and save the world from total termination. He writes in a style that is witty, lucid and impressive.

The world is full of conflicts. The greatest is the struggle between communism and anti-communism. As a human being, he is greatly worried of humankind whose continued existence is in doubt.
The powerful destructive bombs pose a threat to the whole humankind. All are in peril. The issue is disastrous to all sides. One atom bomb obliterated Hiroshima; one hydrogen bomb can obliterate the largest cities like London, New York and Moscow. Now bombs 25000 times
More powerful than the bomb that destroyed Hiroshima, are being made. If exploded, the hydrogen bomb affects the earth, water and air. The consequences are deadly and disastrous. A war with hydrogen bomb is quite likely to put an end to the completely human race. The fortunate minority dies; the unfortunate majority survives only to undergo torture, disease and disintegration.
“Men who know most are most gloomy”. “If man ends not war, war ends man”. The abolition of war demands disastrous limitations of National Sovereignty. It is unfortunate that people fail to realize that war is disastrous to them and their Progeny also. Though agreements are reached regarding the escalation of nuclear bombs, it will not be respected during the times of war. Both sides manufacture bombs. It is natural.
Both the sides of Iron Curtain give seemingly judicious reasons. At a certain time, both the sides long for accommodation. But neither could say so no account of fear of being called “cowardly”. At this juncture, their friends may intervene and settle the matters. The Neutrals all the rights, for, it may lead to the  out –break of a world war. It is perilous also to the countries which do not take part in war. All the issues between East and West must be settled peacefully, through bilateral talks. The Neutrals must play a crucial role. They have to convince both the sides of Iron Curtain of the disastrous results of war. This report must be presented to the governments of all Great powers. It exterminates friend and foe as well.
Man achieved something reasonable in the history of the cosmos during the last six thousand years. All the tremendous achievements of man sink into “irrecognisable combinations of dust”. In a very short span of time, if man continues to be foolish, all will perish including the innocent animals. If man is allowed to survive, the triumphs of future will exceed immeasurably the triumphs of the past. It is ghostly to choose death in preference to happiness, knowledge and wisdom.
ABOUT :

Now that I am officially a philosopher (that is, my salary will be paid by a philosophy, not as a biology, department), I can enjoy the full time in reading philosophy without feeling guilty. I have not mastered the ability (not to feel guilty) yet, but I am working on it. This is also the reason why I am starting an occasional series of blogs dedicated to individual philosophers, gathered among those who have beaten my imagination for one reason or another. Obviously, a blog entry is not the appropriate place for even a superficial look at the entire body of the work of a great philosopher, so what I will do is take place briefly on a number of relevant important issues to comment on for each Individual case and I hope to encourage people to learn more about this philosopher. We began with the British logic of the twentieth century and the moral theorist Bertrand Russell.

Russell was the first philosopher I read starting when I was in high school, and maybe the guy who first went to philosophy. It was one of those long and boring Sunday afternoons in my father's house in Rome that we listened to a radio show of the football matches of the day spent. I have been digitizing a book of my father's collections with the same coverage, one of those things that people do not read for some reason (guilt?) Shame?), you may have on your shelves, so you may have a certain interest in culture, although these books lie, I saw AirG in the bookstore and his owner could not tell the difference between Homer and Shakespeare when he heard some Lines of the Odyssey unlike excerpts from Hamlet.

Anyway, I picked up Russell's autobiography after he vaguely heard the name. I couldn't get this damn thing down, and I always read as if it was a shining novel (the one in a nonfictional sense). After that I moved on to why I was not a Christian, another book hugely influential in my youth, and so on with several others of Russell. I hung, and thirty years later, I become a true philosopher in the same department where Bertrand Russell's company is produced quarterly. But enough about me, let's talk about Bertie.

Russell's life was filled with events that fill the lives of others, partly because he lived a very long existence (he died at 98 years), but mostly because man had an incredible amount of physical and mental energy. He married four times, wrote an astonishing number of books and influential articles on philosophy, had problems with the law several times for his feelings against the war, and was denied a nomination in the city of the University of New York (where I Want) is In the fall, because a judge believes that the opinions expressed by Russell in his union and his morale make him "morally unfit" to teach at American universities.

Russell's greatest interest in philosophy was in the logic and philosophy of mathematics, and his most important achievement in this field is the monumental beginner Mathematica, co-written with Alfred North Whitehead. His project was the creation of mathematics in completely self-sufficient logic foundations, a project that eventually failed and was later demonstrated by people like Kurt Godel (the "theorem of incompleteness" of fame) to be basically impossible. Russell's work, however, was fundamental and very influential. Russell is also widely recognized as the father of what is now known as "analytic" philosophy (as opposed to the other important contemporary branch, the so-called "continental" philosophy). The idea is that philosophy with the clarification of the use of language, the elimination of confusion and the suppression of unrelated or pointless proposals (especially in some writings about the (metaphysical).

Honestly, but the aspects of Russell's thinking that I think to be even more relevant to today's people relate to their policies and their writings on morality. In contrast to many progressives during her life, Russell early recognized that the communist regime of the Soviet Union was a catastrophe for its citizens and for humanity as a whole and was accordingly very publicly criticized. In a typical way, here's how he managed to attack the Soviet revolution and the Catholic Church in a paragraph:

"Who believes that I, that free intellect is the most important motor of human progress, cannot, but fundamental object, to Bolshevism as much as the Church of Rome." "The hopes that communism is inspired are generally as wonderful as those who are silent by preaching on the mountain, but they remain fanatics, and so are likely to wreak havoc."

Russell also saw clearly the threat of Nazism before many others, and therefore thought that the Second World War (as opposed to the World Cup) was necessary and justified. For a while he had high hopes for the role of the United States as a positive force in international governance, but these hopes were frustrated by Kennedy's dealings with the Cuban Missile crisis in the first place and by the Vietnam War Later. He signed a document with Einstein in 1955, which led to the first Pugwash conference on Science and World a few years later. He soon became also the first President of the Nuclear Disarmament campaign (which he eventually resigned because the organization did not support the kind of civil disobedience that Russell was arrested in 1961).

The man had courage, and he had no qualms to fight, not only writing about his ideas about a just and peaceful society. As a result, Russell has energetically written on a variety of other ethical issues, promoting the right of women to choose access to birth control, and gay rights to name a few. In other words, it was (and still is) the last conservative nightmare of the fanatic. You must love this man.

Allow me to leave you with one of my favorite quotes from Bertie on the subject of death and enthusiasm for life:

"I believe that if I die, I will rot, and none of my ego will survive." I'm not young, and I love life. But I hate to tremble with terror on the idea of annihilation. Happiness, however, is true happiness, because it must come to an end, neither thought nor love loses its value because they are not eternal.

                                                           THE DRUNKARD                                       
                                                                                                                                                               
William H. Smith (1807 – 1972) was born in Montagomeryshire, North Wales, “The Drunkard opened on February 25th, 1844 and by July 12th, 1874 had completed 450 shows. The play is considered to be the best example of a “Temperence” drama and was proclaimed as “a grand sacred concert with all the sacred music”. The excerpt from The Drunkard reveals the reason for it having been labeled as a Moral Drama”. It focuses on the conversation between a successful villainous Cribbs and Edward Middleton as irresponsible and wayward drunkard rejected by family as well as society.

“The Drunkard” or “The Fallen Saved” is an American temperance play first performed in 1844. The villainous Lawyer Cribbs has long held a grudge against the Middleton family, even though he has served as their attorney. When young Edward Middleton's father dies, Cribbs attempts to persuade Edward to dispossess a poor mother and daughter who are Middleton's tenants. Instead, Edward falls in love with the daughter, Mary, and marries her. But Edward has a weakness: drink. Cribbs insidiously encourages Edward's weakness, until Edward, ashamed and seemingly impoverished, flees to the degradation of New York's Five Points district. Cribbs follows him there and attempts to turn him into a forger, but Edward's better nature prevails. Edward's foster‐brother William and a rich philanthropist, Arden Rencelaw, seek him out, rehabilitate him, and reunite him with his wife and young daughter. Cribbs is forced to reveal that he has hidden Edward's grandfather's will and that Edward is really still a wealthy man. The melodrama was first presented, as part of a temperance crusade, in Boston in 1844, and within a year, it had been played there a hundred times, including performances at the Tremont Temple and at the Boston Museum. The play was offered by a temperance group in New York in 1844 but failed to cause a stir. However, in 1850 it was revived by several New York theaters, most notably at Barnum's American Museum, where its run of one hundred consecutive performances set a long‐run record for the time.

Even though, the play was written more than 150 years ago, the power and the flavor of the playwright’s pen comes through even today. Smith achieves a remarkable linguistic feat in compressing so much thought into so few words. The impact of each word is so striking that the reader is bound to react to the basic issues raised in the play. The language is, interesting and the similes used to describe feelings and ideas are of special significance in this selection.

This lesson is a best example to the present generation. It gives a chance to look into their life style, about the way they are living, their habits and culture. It says the need of self-control and importance of life purpose and moral values. In addition, it explains how the youth become an excellence in their career and personal life if they have moral values and its importance.                                                               

THREE DAYS TO SEE(Helen Keller)

                                              THREE DAYS TO SEE 

THREE DAYS TO SEE
Helen Keller was born in Alabama (USA) in 1880. She was deaf, dumb and blind. Anne Sullivan, a graduate from Perkins Institute for the Deaf, became her teacher and governess and remained her companion for many years.  In view of her work for the handicapped, Keller was appointed to the New York Commission for the Blind and the American foundation for the Blind.

 “Three Days To See” is a fascinating account of what we can really see, perceive and assimilate from the wonderful world around us. The writer, while making a systematic plan of all nights, makes one realize how insensitive human beings are to their senses.

We are all gifted with many natural abilities like seeing, listening and hearing but how far we are using these abilities properly? What are our perceives and assimilations towards the world. These things are going to explain in this lesson:





                                                        THE DAY ONE
She wants to see the people who helped her with kindness and gentleness and companionship.
Her dear teacher Mrs. AnneSullivan Macy and wants to study teachers face who is the evidence of sympathetic tenderness and patience.

She likes to see in her teacher’s eyes which give strength of character which has enabled her to stand firm in the face of difficulties, and that compassion for all humanity which she has revealed to me so often.

She wants see all her dear friends and look long into their faces, imprinting upon her mind the outward evidences of the beauty.

She is going to give some rest to her eyes. And busy with viewing small simple things of her home. She wants to see the warm colours in the rugs under her feet, the pictures on the walls, the intimate trifles that transform a house into home.

She is going to read some printed colourful books which are helping to understand the human life and human spirit.

First day afternoon she wants to take long walk in the woods and intoxicate her eyes on the beauties of the world of nature, trying desperately to absorb the beauty of the nature permanently in her mind.

At night she is going to get interesting experience by seeing artificial light, which the genius of man has created to extend the power of his sight when Nature decrees darkness. She is not going to sleep because her mind is full of memories of the day. And waiting for the second day experience.

                                                         THE DAY TWO
With the help of great museums like New York Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Natural History.

In the second day she needs to know the past and present history and the great progress of human kind, how the man achieved the control on the world with his tiny stature and powerful brain.

She tries to know how the man created his secure home on this planet and a thousand and one other aspects of natural history.

She plans to observe different things like, at Museum of Natural History material aspects, at Metropolitan show the myriad facets of the human spirit. And different art styles Roman sculpture, Gothic wood carving and the simple line of a Greek vase etc.,

She needs to look the magnificent world of paintings like Raphael, Leonardo da Vinci, Titian El Greco, Veronese and Rembrandt.

In the second day evening she is going to spend the time at a theater or  at the movies there she need to observe and watch the different characters like Hamlet, Falstaff and Joseph Jefferson, Rip Van Winkle  etc.,

All together the second day is an imaginary day of sight, the great figures of dramatic literature would crown sleep from her eyes.

                                                          THE DAY THREE:
On third and last day she left the home and reached the quiet little suburb of Forest Hill, Long Island. There she observed surround beauties like green lawns, trees, and flowers neat little houses and the vices and movements of wives and children who are taking relaxation.

Next she went near the East River there she observed man’s imaginary power and racy speed boats, stolid, snorting tugs etc., and twin towers of New York

Then she started to round the city there she stroll down the Fifth Avenue and Part Avenue during this time she observed the colors of women’s dresses, city slums, factories and parks etc.,

CONCLUSION:

The God gave very precious and powerful gifts to us but we are not using them properly if we use these valuable gifts we can make wonders in the world. Ms Helen Keller had triple physical challenges but she took her life as a challenge and she achieved and created history. The evidence is her five great inspiring books. Through this lesson we can learn how to lead our life in positive prospect. And how to use our natural powerful gifts to make our lives for good cause. 

 HELEN `S LIFE:

Helen was very active after the university to join the women's suffrage movement and also join the Socialist Party. She also wrote a book entitled The World, in which I live what she has revealed for the first time her reflections on her world. ("Helen Keller Biography") Helen was also a staunch supporter of the handicapped, especially the blind and deaf as you, that's what she founded and promoted the American Foundation for Blind. She and Anne toured the world to make speeches and lectures not only in America, but also abroad, in the hope of making the American Foundation for the Blind in a world organization. Helen managed to persuade wealthy people like Henry Ford and John D. Rockefeller to make a donation to their cause. Also, to raise money for their cause Helen played in a few silent films about her life. All the towers, however, took a toll with Anne, who fell ill with bronchitis. Helen Sullivan, a mentor and lifelong friend, died on 20. Helen continued, however, after the death of Anas in homage to her, with longtime secretary and friend Polly Thompson as her voice. They took a break during the Second World War, but took shortly thereafter and turned mainly to the seas until Polly had a stroke in 1957. Polly never completely recovered from her stroke and died shortly thereafter. After Polly's death, Helen lost the will to continue turning and decided to retire in her house in the mysterious ridge. However, she made a public appearance in 1964 when she came to Washington D.C. to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the country's highest civilian award, by President Lyndon Johnson. Helen Keller died at 1.1968 at the mysterious ridge in her dream. Helen Life was dedicated to the service of those who cannot speak or listen. In his own words: "The public must learn that the blind is neither a genius, nor a monster, nor an idiot." "He has a mind, who can be polite," a hand that can be made, and the ambitions that are good for him to achieve, and it is the duty of the public to help him make the best of himself so that he can attain light through work.

 CHILDHOOD:
Helen Keller Nació in Tuscumbia, Alabama el 27 de Juneo de 1880. Nació para Kate Adams cellar y el Coronel Arthur Keller en el on the Finca Llamada Ivy Green. The Casa de Estaba Llena de Palabras y de discurso, su padre era el Redactor para el Periódico, El Alabamia del Norte y su mom gozó de la Escritura de la vorlesungena en su tiempo libre. Todo esto cambió en Febrero de 1882, Cuando Helen de 19 meses de EdHelen Keller was born on June 27th 1880 in Tuscumbia, Alabama. He was born to Kate Adams Keller and Colonel Arthur Keller in the south of the farm called Ivy Green. Helen's house was full of words and speeches, her father was editor for the newspaper, the Alabamia of the north and his mother liked to read the writing in her spare time. All this changed in February of 1882, when Helen of 19 months became extremely ill and lost the ability to hear and see that doctors are now a day of homage to scarlet fever or meningitis. After retired from her illness, her parents recognized that Helen was deaf and blind and feared that they had no way of communicating with her.

HER WORLD TOUR :
After the tragic death of Helen's mother and Anne Sullivan's illness, Helen's teacher, friend and companion, Helen approached the friend Polly Thomson even more. Both temporarily continued the show that Helen and Anne were successful, but soon moved to larger targets. Helen and Polly began to travel the world to raise money for the blind. After the death of Anne Sullivan and the Second World War, their travels increased. The couple travelled to countries like Australia, Japan and England to raise money for the American Foundation for the blind overseas. ("The Life of Helen Keller") Helen was an international consultant for this Association, formerly American Braille Press. Because of his position he had the privilege to visit all these countries; 39 countries in general on five continents. On these voyages, Helen could meet all the other children of the people; was a veteran for handicapped children and international license fees/executives. His longest trip went through Asia in 1948. Helen and Polly were able to visit Nagasaki and Hiroshima to see the effects of the atomic bomb on the land and its inhabitants. ("Helen Keller Kids Museum") In honor of Helen, many countries such as India, the Soviet Union and Egypt have opened centers named after Helen to help blind and handicapped people. Also because of his work with the organization, the American Foundation for Blind Overseas was eventually renamed Helen Keller International. Polly Thomson grew increasingly fragile on these trips after a smooth blow and eventually disappeared into 1960. Polly's death led to an end in big public appearances for Helen, who publicly spoke for the last time in 1961 at the Lions Club meeting in Washington, D.C. After that, Helen retreated to her mysterious comb home in Easton Connecticut.
