Dear All,

Continuing:
"On January 1, 1872, exactly one year after it had first taken effect, the penal code of the North German Confederation became the penal code of the entire German Empire. By this change, sexual intercourse between men became again a punishable offence in Bavaria as well. Almost verbatim from its Prussian model from 1794, the new Paragraph 175 of the imperial penal code specified:

   Unnatural fornication, whether between persons of the male sex or of
   humans with beasts, is punished with imprisonment, with the further
   punishment of a prompt loss of civil rights.^[16]
   <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paragraph_175#cite_note-16>

Even in the 1860s, individuals such as Karl Heinrich Ulrichs <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Heinrich_Ulrichs> and Karl Maria Kertbeny <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Maria_Kertbeny> had unsuccessfully raised their voices against the Prussian paragraph 143." from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paragraph_175#German_Empire.

*Consequently:*


     E101 Intention to Apply**

Subclass of:E2 Temporal Entity

Superclass of:

Scope note:This class comprises the mental states of individual instances of E39 Actor that intend to or want to apply a particular instance of Activity Plan. This can be understood as the period of time when an individual or group holds a particular will. It binds the activity plan to the actor. The ‘intention to apply’ may be abandoned before the realization of the plan. When the plan is actually realized, the ‘intention to apply’ must necessarily still exist. Characteristically, the passing of a law initiates the intention of a parliament to apply the law. In many cases, the creation of the plan initiates the intention to apply it, and in the case of “active plans” the completed realization of the plan ends the intention. Often, the existence of the ‘intention to apply’ cannot be determined other than by the realization of the plan.

Examples:

§The intention of Nicholas Pickwoad to undertake conservation work on MS Greek 418 at the Saint Catherine's Library.

§The intention of the German governments, from the Empire to the Federal Republic to apply paragraph 175, making homosexuality a punishable offense, from 1872 to 1991.
