This retelling by Louis Zara of the brief, anguished life of Stephen Crane -- poet and master novelist at 23, dead at 28 -- is in novelized form but does not abuse its tragic subject.

Louis Bolk made a long list of such traits, and Stephen Jay Gould published a short list in Ontogeny and Phylogeny.

Louis Stephen St. Laurent, PC, CC, QC ( Saint-Laurent or St-Laurent in French, baptized Louis-Étienne St-Laurent ), ( 1 February 188225 July 1973 ) was the 12th Prime Minister of Canada from 15 November 1948, to 21 June 1957.

In 816, Pope Stephen IV, who had succeeded Leo III, visited Reims and again crowned Louis.

The modern interpretation, following that of Louis Duchesne, who compiled the major scholarly edition, is that the Liber Pontificalis was gradually and unsystematically compiled, and that the authorship is impossible to determine, with a few exceptions ( e. g. the biography of Pope Stephen II ( 752 – 757 ) to papal " Primicerius " Christopher ; the biographies of Pope Nicholas I and Pope Adrian II ( 867 – 872 ) to Anastasius ).

Louis confiscated Stephen ’ s wealth and began harassing him so that he would cease his reforming activities.

Although this incurred the wrath of Bernard of Clairvaux, who wrote to Honorius expressing his disgust, Honorius pressured Stephen of Senlis to become reconciled with King Louis in 1130.

However, according to Louis Marie DeCormenin, Stephen was the key person responsible for issuing the orders, and took great delight in destroying his rival and his supporters.

Immediately after his consecration he ordered the Roman people to swear fidelity to the Frankish king and Roman emperor Louis the Pious, after which Stephen sent envoys to the emperor notifying him of his election, and to arrange a meeting between the two at the emperor ’ s convenience.

With Louis ’ invitation, Stephen left Rome in August 816, crossing the Alps together with Bernard, the King of the Lombards, who was ordered to accompany Stephen to the emperor.

In early October, the Pope and Emperor met at Rheims, where Louis prostrated himself three times before Stephen.

At Mass on Sunday, 5 October 816, Stephen consecrated and anointed Louis as emperor, placing a crown on his head that was claimed to belong to Constantine the Great.

While with Louis, the emperor gave Stephen a number of presents, including an estate of land ( most likely at Vendeuvre-sur-Barse ) granted to the Roman church.

Stephen also raised Bishop Theodulf of Orléans to the rank of Archbishop, and had Louis release from their exile all political prisoners originally from Rome who had been held by the emperor resulting from the conflict that plagued the early part of Pope Leo III ’ s reign.

It is also believed that Stephen asked Louis to enforce reforms for the clergy who lived under the Rule of Chrodegang.

In early 940, Stephen intervened on behalf of Louis IV of France, who had been trying to bring to heel his rebellious dukes, Hugh the Great and Herbert II, Count of Vermandois, both of whom had appealed for support from the German king Otto I.

Emboldened by this, Stephen then sought to break up the alliance against Louis by offering Herbert ’ s son, Hugh of Vermandois, the office of Archbishop of Reims.

Along with the Pallium ( the symbol of office for the archbishop ), Stephen sent another legate, with instructions to the Frankish nobility, insisting that they submit to Louis.

Finally, Stephen ’ s intervention on behalf of the Frankish king Louis IV ( who was in conflict with Otto ) would not have occurred had Stephen been a relative of the German king, and had Stephen received the papal throne through Otto ’ s intervention.

Stephen's accession to the throne still needed to be ratified by the Pope, however, and Henry of Blois appears to have been responsible for ensuring that testimonials of support were sent both from Stephen's elder brother Theobald and from the French king Louis VI, to whom Stephen represented a useful balance to Angevin power in the north of France.

Stephen himself only returned to the duchy in 1137, where he met with Louis VI and Theobald to agree to an informal regional alliance, probably brokered by Henry, to counter the growing Angevin power in the region.

Louis St-Laurent () was born on 1 February 1882 in Compton, Quebec, a village in the Eastern Townships to Jean-Baptiste-Moïse Saint-Laurent, a French-Canadian, and Mary Anne Broderick, an Irish-Canadian.

St-Laurent was initially very well received by the Canadian public, but by 1957, " Uncle Louis " and his government began to appear tired, old and out of touch.
