Neang Kakey
Neang Kakey ( km, រឿងនាងកាកី) is a Khmer '' sāstrā lbaeng'' tale and the best-known work composed as a melodrama in verse by future King of Cambodia Ang Duong in 1815 during the time he resided at the Royal Court in Thailand. Origin While he was studying at the Royal Court in Bangkok, King Ang Duong was inspired by the Thai folk tale ''Kaki Klon Suphap'' to write, when he was only 19 years of age, a similar tale in Khmer, about an unfaithful wife, far from virtue and what the canons of society expected at that time. A Buddhist tale of virtue and vice Ang Duong wrote during a time when traditional Buddhist Theravada was influential in Cambodia and when indulgence on physical beauty was strictly moderated. His melodrama around the misadventures of Neang Kakey were primarily derived from two jataka stories, ''Kakati Jataka'' and ''Sussondi Jataka'', as part of a "tendency towards secularization of the Buddhist canonical hagiography". Both tales deal with the ...

Year Of Birth Missing
A year or annus is the orbital period of a planetary body, for example, the Earth, moving in its orbit around the Sun. Due to the Earth's axial tilt, the course of a year sees the passing of the seasons, marked by change in weather, the hours of daylight, and, consequently, vegetation and soil fertility. In temperate and subpolar regions around the planet, four seasons are generally recognized: spring, summer, autumn and winter. In tropical and subtropical regions, several geographical sectors do not present defined seasons; but in the seasonal tropics, the annual wet and dry seasons are recognized and tracked. A calendar year is an approximation of the number of days of the Earth's orbital period, as counted in a given calendar. The Gregorian calendar, or modern calendar, presents its calendar year to be either a common year of 365 days or a leap year of 366 days, as do the Julian calendars. For the Gregorian calendar, the average length of the calendar year (the mea ...
