While usually glossed as " divinity " in English, some Western commentators, such as John W. Dower and Herbert P. Bix, have argued that this means " manifest kami " ( or more loosely " incarnation of a god "), and the Emperor could still be an arahitogami even if he is not an akitsumikami.

Herbert Bix explains that " the Truman administration and General MacArthur both believed the occupation reforms would be implemented smoothly if they used Hirohito to legitimise their changes.

Some Western academics, such as John W. Dower and Herbert Bix, consider however that the Ningen-sengen can be interpreted in a way which, while renouncing his claim to be an, Hirohito did not actually deny his divine descent from Amaterasu Omikami.

Leon Bismark " Bix " Beiderbecke ( March 10, 1903 – August 6, 1931 ) was an American jazz cornetist, jazz pianist, and composer.

Bix Beiderbecke was born on March 10, 1903, in Davenport, Iowa, the son of Bismark Herman and Agatha Jane ( Hilton ) Beiderbecke.

There is disagreement over whether Beiderbecke was christened Leon Bismark ( and nicknamed " Bix ") or Leon Bix.

His father was nicknamed " Bix ," as, for a time, was his older brother, Charles Burnette " Burnie " Beiderbecke.

Burnie Beiderbecke claimed that the boy was named Leon Bix and subsequent biographers have reproduced birth certificates to that effect.

Regardless, his parents called him Bix, which seems to have been his preference.

In a letter to his mother when he was nine years old, Beiderbecke signed off, " frome your Leon Bix Beiderbecke not Bismark Remeber ".

Bix Beiderbecke was the youngest of three children.

Bix began playing piano at age two or three.

It was purchased and renovated by the Italian director Pupi Avati when he filmed portions of his biopic Bix ( film ) | Bix: An Interpretation of a Legend there during the summer of 1990.

A friend remembered that the plots of the silent matinees Bix and his friends watched on Saturdays didn't interest him much, but as soon as the lights came on he would rush home to see if he could duplicate the melodies the accompanist had played during the action.

From these records Bix Beiderbecke first learned to love hot jazz ; he taught himself to play cornet by listening to Nick LaRocca's horn lines.

According to biographer Jean Pierre Lion, " Bix was accused of having taken this man's five-year-old daughter into a garage and committing on her an act qualified by the police report as ' lewd and lascivious.

Where Armstrong emphasized showmanship and virtuosity, Beiderbecke emphasized melody, even when improvising, and — different from Armstrong and contrary to how the Bix Beiderbecke of legend would be portrayed — he rarely strayed into the upper reaches of the register.
