Eduardo Majeroni
Eduardo Majeroni (1840 – 20 October 1891) was an actor who toured the world with Adelaide Ristori, playing popular Italian dramas in their original language. He and his wife Giulia, a niece of Ristori, left the company in Australia and carved out a career playing the same repertoire in English translations. Giulia was an actress, and their two sons Mario and George had acting careers in America. History Majeroni was born in Bergamo, the youngest of 17 children, and educated in Milan. His parents had visions of his becoming a civil engineer like his grandfather, who had a hand in building the fortress at Marghera, and enrolled him in a college in Milan. Majeroni however put more effort into the college's theatrical endeavors than course work, and when Count Cavour enlisted Napoleon III's aid to drive out the Austrians in 1859, he and his comrade Alexander Meschini abandoned study for the glamour of an artillery uniform. They saw little fighting; after the siege of Bologna, which ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

King Of Portugal
This is a list of Portuguese monarchs who ruled from the establishment of the Kingdom of Portugal, in 1139, to the deposition of the Portuguese monarchy and creation of the Portuguese Republic with the 5 October 1910 revolution. Through the nearly 800 years in which Portugal was a monarchy, the kings held various other titles and pretensions. Two kings of Portugal, Ferdinand I and Afonso V, also claimed the crown of Castile. When the House of Habsburg came into power, the kings of Spain, Naples, and Sicily also became kings of Portugal. The House of Braganza brought numerous titles to the Portuguese Crown, including King of Brazil and then ''de jure'' Emperor of Brazil. After the demise of the Portuguese monarchy, in 1910, Portugal almost restored its monarchy in a revolution known as the Monarchy of the North, though the attempted restoration only lasted a month before destruction. With Manuel II's death, the Miguelist branch of the house of Braganza became the pretenders t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
