	Curzon Line - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Curzon Line was a demarcation line proposed in 1919 by the British Foreign Secretary, Lord Curzon of Kedleston, as a possible armistice line between Poland, to the west, and Soviet Russia to the east, during the Polish-Soviet War of 1919–20.
		Curzon's plan was not accepted by the Soviet Russia, and in fact it did not play any role in establishing the Polish-Soviet border in 1921 because of the Polish demands.
		Curzon line was similar to the border between the Soviet Union and the Nazi Germany agreed secretly to in the Ribbentrop-Molotov pact.

	George Nathaniel Curzon, 1st Marquess Curzon of Kedleston - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		Within India, Lord Curzon of Kedleston appointed a number of commissions to inquire into Indian education, irrigation, police and other branches of administration, on whose reports legislation was based during his second term of office as viceroy.
		Upon his death the Barony, Earldom and Marquessate of Curzon of Kedleston became extinct, whilst the Viscountcy and Barony of Scarsdale were inherited by a nephew and the Barony of Ravensdale by his eldest daughter.

		Curzon Dax was a joined Trill, from 2285 to 2367, the seventh host of the Dax symbiont.
		When the young Dax was murdered by an alien known as "The Albino", Curzon joined Kang, Kor and Koloth (whose firstborn sons had also been murdered) in swearing a blood oath of revenge, which later was fulfilled by Jadzia Dax, the next host of the Dax symbiont.
		Curzon and Odo wished to remain that way, and it was at this time that he finally admitted to Jadzia that he had fallen in love with her.

		Curzon liked to think of himself as a mover and shaker, but mostly what he moved and shook was piles of paper.
		Curzon, the inheritor of this mass misery, was tactless in saying that the disaster was no more his responsibility than that of “the man in the moon,” but the issue was, rather, whether he did everything in his power to alleviate the suffering.
		And, in the same sense, Curzon insisted—as he had when he restored, exquisitely, the heavily damaged Taj Mahal and the town of Fatehpur Sikri—that the conservation of ancient and religious monuments was a sacred duty of whichever imperial power happened to be granted their temporary custody.

		Too, writes Gilmour, Curzon often swam against the tide of world events, arguing in the wake of WWI that Egypt should not be granted independence and that Britain should not give in to nationalist movements in its colonies.
		Curzon was born and raised as an aristocrat at a time that the British Empire was at its apex in the decades before WWI.
		Curzon was a work alcoholic, self-centered person who sounded condescending at times and was unable to delegate much because of his very exacting standards.

		The grandsons of Lord Curzon, the Viceroy of India from 1898 to 1905, have received an official invitation to visit the country to mark the centenary of a game reserve founded by their grandmother.
		Until recently, Indian textbooks portrayed Curzon as representing all that was bad about the Raj because he partitioned Bengal in 1905 and set the province's Hindu and Muslim populations against each other by adopting a policy of divide and rule.
		Lady Curzon's efforts were certainly successful: as part of the celebrations from Feb 11-18, to be inaugurated by Manmohan Singh, the Indian prime minister, some of Kaziranga's 1,600 rhinos will be flushed out for viewing.

		On those rare occasions where he could be persuaded to commit his rather small repertoire to tape, the results were invariably spellbinding, and that’s the case with this collection of all his Mozart recordings for Decca.
		Curzon’s playing is utterly simple and unadorned, as if he were trying to remove himself from the performance equation and leave nothing but the purified essence of Mozart’s music.
		Curzon also has the benefit of outstanding collaborators.

		Curzon's studio recordings of these works for Decca/London with Hans Knappertbusch, despite their elegant pianism, seem pale beside these live performances.
		Curzon's typically understated opening to the Fourth is followed by a lovingly molded orchestral introduction, Kubelik putting just enough iron into the velvet glove to remind us we're listening to Beethoven.
		Curzon gathers strength as the performance proceeds; his finale is powerfully inflected.

	Powell's Books - A Meeting of Minds (Superintendent Mike Yeadings Mysteries) by Clare Curzon
		The body of one of the tenants, a single woman who had moved in with her mother, was found brutally murdered, and the case naturally was Yeadings' responsibility and thus that of Rosemary and Beaumont.
		Curzon uncannily keeps on bringing her readers believable characters, both the stalwart Yeadings and his Woman Friday, Z, as well as whole groups of once-a-book individuals who set a reader right smack in the middle of the little English town and the puzzling and intriguing crime that can be found there.
		Curzon does an excellent job of portraying the byplay and pedestrian details of daily police work and throws in enough plot twists to satisfy classic mystery fans.

		At sixteen he was a pianist in a London theatre orchestra (what sources of talent those orchestras were!) and at twenty he was conducting and composing accompaniments for silent films, then (1920) approaching their heyday as providers of live music.
		Curzon's music has a characteristic sparkle, apparent especially in his overtures Vanguard, Chevalier and Punchinello (which has been recorded in the LP era), all of which are most delightfully scored.
		One interesting feature of Curzon's orchestration is the presence of three (or sometimes two or even four) saxophones in many of his scores, apart from the more usual woodwind instruments.

	The Hindu : Jaswant and Lord Curzon's legacy
		Taking off from Lord Curzon's discussion on the diplomacy of fixing physical frontiers among competing powers at the turn of the 20th century, he was leading to a discourse on the new frontiers that Indian diplomacy must conquer.
		The challenge for New Delhi, in balance, is to retain the essence of Curzon's vision that is rooted in India's geography while discarding the hegemonic aspects of it.
		Lord Curzon's emphasis on the value of fixing boundaries, conceived in the context of expanding empires, remains very relevant for India.

		The Curzon sisters, daughters of Lord Curzon, Viceroy of india, were famous society beauties in the 20's and 30's, swanning their ways along gilded paths of privilege, as was common among the daughters of the aristocracy, especially during this particular era which was known as "the Long Weekend"...the era between WW1 and WW2.
		Curzon himself was no prize, surely one of the most vainglorious men ever to walk the earth, and his position as Viceroy of India fairly turned his head.
		The three Curzon sisters, via their marriages, love affairs, and circle of friends managed to touch on just about every wild, scandalous, or history-making personage of the time, including the abdicating Prince of Wales and his wife, Churchill, and Hitler.

		David Gilmour has written an excellent biography of George Curzon, who, although little known to most Americans, was an important figure in English politics and government from the 1890s until the 1920s.
		That balance is important: Curzon was by all accounts a brilliant but highly difficult man who was often haughty with subordinates and quarrelsome with his peers.
		Gilmour does a very good job overall reviewing Curzon's long life in English public affairs, starting with his career in the House of Commons, moving on to his years as Viceroy in India, then to his years in the House of Lords and then in Cabinet.
