  1. Gertrude of Hackeborn

    Refimprove date June 2007 Gertrude of Hackeborn 1223 1292 was the Abbess of the Cistercian convent of Helfta , near Eisleben in modern Germany. She was a member of the Hackeborn dynasty and a sister of St. Mechtilde . At a young age she ented the Cistercian convent of Roderdorf , where she was elected abbess in 1251 at the age of only nineteen. She founded the convent of Hederleben in 1253 with the help of her two brothers, Albert and Louis, but it suffered from a lack of water, so she received the castle of Helpeda Helfta and its surrounding land from them and moved her community there in 1258. While she was abbess, the convent of Helfta became famous across the Holy Roman Empire for its practices of asceticism and mysticism. Gertrude required her nuns to be educated in the liberal arts , but most importantly in the Bible . She was considered a model abbess, most especially in her behavior during the year long illness that took her life. Gertrude of Hackeborn is not to be confused with St. Gertrude the Great . The abbess never wrote anything, nor did she received any relevations from God or become canonized . Gertrude the Great was born over twenty years after the her, and lived as an ordinary nun in the Helfa convent.

  1. Gertrude Sanborn

    Gertrude Sanborn 1881 1928 was an American author who lived in Milwaukee. She attained some notice for her novel Veiled Aristocrats 1922 , which dealt with race relations more directly than was fashionable at the time. The novel belonged to the genre of passing stories, of African Americans passing for white, and featured an interracial romance set partly in Chicago. The novel s title was borrowed in 1932 by pioneer African American filmmaker Oscar Micheaux for his talkie Veiled Aristocrats , a remake of House Behind the Cedars , his 1924 silent film based on the novel by that name by Charles Chesnutt . Micheaux s Veiled Aristocrats also focused on passing and interracial relationships, but owed more to its source in Chesnutt than to Sanborn s novel. In 1920 Sanborn published an optimistic riposte to Mary MacLane s 1917 memoir I, Mary MacLane under the title I, Citizen of Eternity . References McGilligan, Patrick.

The crater rim of Gertrude is elevated by 2  km over the crater floor. In the center of the crater there is a large dome, which resulted from the uplift of the surface immediately after the impact. The dome has the diameter of about 150  km and is 2 3  km high. The rim and dome are low for crater with such a large diameter indicating that the relief has relaxed since the impact. The surface of the dome has only few superimposed smaller craters, which means that it was modified later. ref name Moore Schenk et al. 2004 Notes notes References refs refs ref name USGS Uranus Titania Gertrude cite web author USGS IAU date October 1, 2006 title Gertrude on Titania publisher USGS Astrogeology work Gazetteer of Planetary Nomenclature url http planetarynames.wr.usgs.gov Feature 2150 accessdate 2012 03 28 ref sfnRef USGS Uranus Titania Gertrude ref ref name Moore Schenk et al. 2004 cite doi 10.1016 j.icarus.2004.05.009 ref External links http www.planetary.org explore topics our solar system uranus titania.html Gertrude peeks over the terminator at the Planetary Society Moons of Uranus DEFAULTSORT Gertrude Crater Category Impact craters on Uranus moons crater stub bg es Gertrude cr ter de Titania fr Gertrude crat re gl Xertrude cr ter it Gertrude cratere pt Gertrude cratera ru simple Gertrude crater zh ...   more details
