| Notable Peacemakers & Their Monuments
Part 1 (peacemakers born 1400-1885)Click here for Part 2 (peacemakers born 1886-1997). |
.
"Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God." Matthew 5:9.
N.B.: This two-part web page is a work in progress. It currently lists 192 peacemakers worldwide and shows 875 monuments associated with 111 selected peacemakers (of whom 22 are artists or patrons of peace monuments).
Peacemaker names in red are linked to other pages of this website (which identify the monuments in greater detail).
Peacemaker names in black are linked to biographies outside this website (usually Wikipedia).
Symbols (explained here) identify anri-slavery advocates, Nobel Peace Prize laureates, speakers of Esperanto, suffragists, artists & other attributes.
The peacemakers named by this web page span 600 years of human history. They are listed in birth order so as to be shown near their contemporaries. Each monument is dated by the year of its dedication (or by the approximate year in which a preexisting structure became iconic due to its association with a particular peacemaker).
The result is 600 years of peace history -- as reflected by the construction & preservation of physical monuments. Viewers can discern how peace issues -- & monumental styles -- have changed with time.
All monuments shown here can be visited (in person or on-line), thus facilitating peace education & peace tourism. Monuments of some peacemakers are geographically limited to their countries of origin, whereas monuments associated with other peacemakers exist in multiple countries.
Incidentally, the 16 peacemakers with more than ten monuments shown here are
Mahatma Gandhi (39),
MLK (31), FDR (24),
Ludwik Zamenhof (20),
Sri Chinmoy (18),
Alfred Nobel (17),
Nelson Mandela (16),
Bertha von Suttner (16),
Henry Dunant (14),
Jean Monnet (14),
John Lennon (13),
George Marshall (13),
Chiune Sugihara (12),
Frederick Douglass (11),
Cordell Hull (11) &
Jeannette Rankin (11). The three artists & patrons with more than ten peace monuments are
Tomijiro Yoshida (21),
Gerald Holtom (17), Carolyna Marks (14) &
Nichidatsu Fujii (12+).
Caveat: The selection of peacemakers & monuments on this web page is no doubt biased in favor of the USA & other English-speaking countries. This is unavoidable due to the nationality of the compiler & to the availability of on-line information. The objectivity of this web page is dependent on your comments & suggestions. Please send them to geovisual @ comcast.net. Thank you very much.
