Max Weber Weber produced the studies included in the book in the years leading up to the First World War, in the absence of much the material and textual evidence produced by archeology, and under the influence of the "Higher Criticism". Weber's interests in economics, law, bureaucracy, and religion led to some of the most scintillating writing ever produced in the social sciences, and his strenuous originality of thought, dense but lucid prose, and formidable analytical gifts invested his writings with lasting significance. Max Weber arguably was the first social scientists who devoted his life's work to cross-cultural studies. music-books-online.net /search_Max_Weber/searchBy_Author.html

New Contemporary Christian Music Artists, Karl Kohlhase and Friends The simple fact that you landed on this website (out of the hundreds of Christian music artists that are out there) is evidence that the Lord is blessing my humble efforts in the world of contemporary Christian music. Sometimes Christian music artists shy away from themes like these, which can lead a person to think that once you become a Christian, life is all bubble gum and roses. All Christian music artists sort of have their own niche. www.k4communications.com /karl

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Mosaics Evidence of this decay, both in design and practice is shown in the fact that when Abbot Desiderius, formerly legate at Constantinople and who became pope as Victor III, wished to decorate the monastery of Monte Cassino with mosaics, he brought artists and workmen from Constantinople in 1066 for that purpose. Mosaic was, however, being rapidly superseded by fresco, which as a primary art giving the sentiment and character of the artists immediately, was of course much more esteemed by persons of discrimination than a mere copy in tesserae, or slabs of opaque glass. The initial steps by which it gradually emerged from Pagan art are in a measure lost, for it rises suddenly like a phoenix from the ashes, complete, entire in its manipulation, whilst the character of the subjects and designs represented bespeak the traditions adopted by the artists of the catacombs. www.newadvent.org /cathen/10584a.htm

William Robinson - Creation landscape – fountains of the earth 2002 It is evidence of the artist’s maturity and great integrity as a painter: demonstrating his great technical skill, his depth of feeling for the local surroundings in which he works and his recognition of the intimacy and breadth of the natural environment that sustains life on this planet. Robinson moved from being a classically trained artist with a love of colour who painted interiors, to an artist who enthusiastically embraced the visual possibilities of rural life after he moved to a small farm in Birkdale in the early 1970s. William Robinson has emerged as a major force in Australian art and has been described as one of the most important Australian landscape artists of the late 20th century. www.nga.gov.au /NewAcquisitions/2003/robinson.htm

Native American Art News: March 2005 Now deceased matriarch Ellen Quandelacy learned the art of carving from her father, Johnny Quam, and her style is still very much in evidence in the carvings and fetish necklaces of daughter Albenita Yunie, and Albenita's sons Brian and Jeffrey Yunie. the artwork of a young native artist will be... Whether realistic, or semi-abstract, the soft, free-flowing lines he obtains with the minimal amount of change to the object stone is one of the most notable attributes of his carvings. www.amerindianarts.info /nativenews/archives/2005_03_01_archive.html   (11526 words)

robinson.html The trial was a sham and afterwards, compelling evidence came to light suggesting that he was not the murderer. Taking full advantage of the non-linear and graphic features of World Wide Web, this educational site draws students into historical research through the use of newspaper clippings, photographs, maps, diaries, artist's reconstruction, and written narrative. Students are required to build their own stories around the death of William Robinson or if you choose, one of the other murders on Salt Spring. www.georgetown.edu /crossroads/innovistas/robinson.html   (11526 words)

Visual Arts Books [encyclopedia] In the early 1990s the design and creation of the Central Garden at the Getty Center were entrusted to the distinguished contemporary visual artist Robert Irwin. Extracts from historical and modern documents provide further evidence while correspondence between Hockney and an impressive array of international art historians, curators, and scientists details both the evolution of his theory and the furor that has erupted over it. Hockney's own drawings and photographs illustrate how artists would have used the technology available to them in rendering their subjects. artzia.com /Arts/Art/Books.shtml   (463 words)

networked_performance The final work was made into two installations: Evidence Locker at Tate evokes the space of the CCTV monitoring station, with a soundtrack of the police log being read aloud, and CCTV footage featuring the artist. To cultivate new and relevant performance concepts, Capacitor developed the Capacitor Lab, a think-tank of artists engineers, scientists and philosophers who exchange ideas, share knowledge, and ignite each other's imaginations towards the creation of innovative performance pieces. In the attempt to extricate human content from technological form, the question is made more complicated by our increasing tendency as artists to bring together imaging, sound, and text systems into interactive environments that exploit state-of-the-art hypermedia and that engage the full sensorium, albeit by digital means. www.turbulence.org /blog/archives/cat_networked_performance.html   (463 words)

Durcharbeitung: March 2005 Specifically the hunger artist laments that “…no one could provide first-hand evidence that the fast had really been rigorous and continuous; only the artist himself could know that, he was therefore bound to be the sole completely satisfied spectator of his own fast.” (270). Kafka also writes, “…since it was not the hunger artist who was cheating, he was working honestly, but the world was cheating him of his reward.” This leads me to believe, and if I remember correctly, I think the class also believed the hunger artist did care a great deal about the attention he got. The artist was capable to prolong his fasting, but the people, being inhuman, were hungry for other forms of entertainment to keep them satisfied. durcharbeitung.blogspot.com /2005_03_01_durcharbeitung_archive.html   (3756 words)

A Hunger Artist Hunger Artist: No one can possibly watch me day and night, so no one can produce first-hand evidence that my fast was really rigorous and continuous. Hunger Artist: I am nothing now, stuck in a forgotten corner of the circus on the way to the animal cages. Hunger Artist:  Hunger is my art and I'm a master; there never has been a greater faster. www.volny.cz /richgold/hunger.html   (2673 words)

Franz Kafka - A Hunger Artist No one could possibly watch the hunger artist continuosly, day and night, and so no one could produce first-hand evidence that the fast had really been rigorous and continuous; only the artist himself could know that, he was therefore bound to be the sole completely satisfied spectator of his own fast. Nothing annoyed the artist more than such watchers; they made him miserable; they made his fast seem unendurable; sometimes he mastered his feebleness sufficiently to sing during their watch for as long as he could keep going, to show them how unjust their suspicions were. And that was the reason why the hunger artist, who had of course been looking forward to these visiting hours as the main achievement of his life, began instead to shrink from them. www.zwyx.org /portal/kafka/kafka_hunger_artist.html   (1929 words)

The Stranger - Arts - Visual Arts Listings - Visual Arts Listings Here's a chance to see graffiti in a different context: In this new exhibition, regional graffiti artists have created site-specific installations in the ConWorks space (as well as on some of the warehouse's exterior walls), so that we can see the evidence up close. Averns is a British artist living in British Columbia, and his current installation at 911 uses a mixture of neon and backlit texts to explore the relationship between language and visual communication. In the mid 1800s, a loosely formed group of artists concentrated their talents on representing the transcendentalist's Nature with a capital "N." It's a kind of romanticism we wouldn't be able to get away with these days; the wink-and-nod would be implicit. www.thestranger.com /seattle/Listings?oid=3480   (1929 words)

Suspended Animation Comics Reviews It was flexibility, both figuratively and literally, that made Cole successful as a writer, editor and artist during the early days of comics. No one has ever duplicated Cole's 'big-foot' art and viewpoint on Plastic Man. His subtle, visual humor and the distinct personalities of his characters is evidence of Cole's unique talent. Jack Cole was an early master of comics, and his work is highly recommended. www.starland.com /sus/1999/sus990407.htm   (338 words)

Evolution When challenged to produce a series of fossils demonstrating the transition of one species into another, the 4-3-1 toe evolution of the horse is frequently presented as evidence. In the November 2001 issue they gave a picture (See first figure) of a land animal - Ambulocetus - said to be a stage in the evolution of the whale- but their artist falsified webs between its claws to make it look as if it were adapting to living in the sea. Evolutionists are unable to explain how the whale, which is a mammal, went back into the sea without leaving any fossil evidence of intermediate forms. www.mbowden.surf3.net /evol.htm   (1313 words)

We The Free I also pointed out that Hitler was a starving artist who joined the National Socialist Party, supported gun control, abortion, government control of corporations, was an athiest with an affinity for paganism, hated Jews and allied himself with radical Muslims. Did I forget to mention that there's actual evidence that the Viet Cong had relations with -- if not control of -- the People's Committee for Peace and Justice (PCPJ) headed by Al Hubbard. Did I mention that Al Hubbard was also the executive director of the Vietnam Veteran's Against the War (VVAW) and recruited Kerry into the organization? wethefree.blogspot.com /2004/11/what-manchurian-candidate.html   (1313 words)

Multimedia Gallery Artist's concept of a catastrophic asteroid impact with the early Earth. A large body of scientific evidence now exists that support the hypothesis that a major asteroid or comet impact occurred in the Caribbean region at the boundary of the Cretaceous and Tertiary periods in Earth's geologic history. The Earth may have experienced such gigantic impacts in its youth, but fortunately today there are no projectiles this large to threaten our planet. nai.arc.nasa.gov /impact/gallery_main.cfm   (1313 words)

The Great Seal of the United States Since there is no evidence that either Thomson or Barton was a Mason, and as they were the two individuals responsible for the final design, the presumption would be that they did not intend their work to be given a Masonic interpretation. In 1782 (nearly six years later!) these designs were submitted to Charles Thomson, Secretary to the Continental Congress, (and NOT a Mason) who prepared a design which, with some alterations, was adopted by the congress on June 20, 1782. On page 75 are Charles Thomson's notes on his design - A pyramid unfinished - In the Zenith an Eye in a triangle... www.masonicinfo.com /greatseal.htm   (1491 words)

Hughes for America: Humor The Christian Taliban, emboldened anew by the election (and reelection) of President Bush, are trying to force the Bible – a book based on evidence as provable as the unicorn or mermaid – into America's science classes, where data, not Jesus, is lord. The very culture that demands a convenient, easy-to-follow ending also enjoys paintings by "artists" like Thomas Kinkade or albums by "American Idol" winners and other mindless pop drones.

July 14 05 features Although nominated as "Best Female Vocalist" at the Canadian Smooth Jazz Awards in 2005, Welsman is quick to distinguish herself from other artists who perform solely smooth jazz, a slightly funkier version of traditional jazz. As evidence that Welsman’s talent extends beyond her skill as a musician and vocalist, Céline Dion recorded a song written by Welsman and producer/songwriter Romano Musumarra for her Miracle album last year. Although it’s an unusual concept, Welsman’s mentor, Grammy awards founder Pierre Cossette, suggested she explore the possibility because it seemed to be an untouched frontier in the jazz field. www.muskokan.com /july_14_05_features.htm   (2147 words)

And that was the reason why the hunger artist, who had of course been looking forward to these visiting hours as the main achievement of his life, began instead to shrink from them. “What a fellow you are,” said the overseer, “and why can’t you help it?” “Because,” said the hunger artist, lifting his head a little and speaking, with his lips pursed, as if for a kiss, right into the overseer’s ear, so that no syllable might be lost, “because I couldn’t find the food I liked. www.lundwood.u-net.com /ahunga.htm   (1885 words)

Outline Biography of El Greco The only evidence for the date of birth is the artist's own statement, made on 31st October and again on 4th November, 1606, that he was sixty-five years of age. On two occasions, the town of Candia is specified: in Giulio Clovio's letter of 1570 and in 1582, when the artist was acting as interpreter in the trial of another 'Greek' in Toledo, when he states he was a native of the 'town of Candia'. The evidence is a letter dated 16th November 1570, from Giulio Clovio in Rome addressed to Cardinal Farnese, asking the Cardinal to place the 'young Candian, a pupil of Titian's, recently arrived in Rome', under his protection and give him temporary lodging in his palace. gallery.euroweb.hu /tours/spain/greco1.html   (1885 words)

[ELFWOOD] SF&F Art / Rhodri McCormack / 'Zarathustra' Comment From The Artist: Calling Zarathustra a myth is not like calling Jesus a myth at all, Jesus's existence was recored in serveral official Roman documents by people who acctually dealt with him at the time and these peaces of second hand evidence still exist to this day. Calling Zarathustra a myth is more like calling Odesius or Herculies a myth which you can well do because no one has left any evidence behind to prove his existance who accually new them -first hand- all third hand evidence ie. Comment From The Artist: Hey yeah and the funniest part is that Zarathustra isn't even a religiouse figure, he was a victional character made up by the philosopher Neechy(don't ask me how that's actually suposed to be spelled coz I don't know and don't really care), created to illustrate his ideas on existential indipendant thought. elfwood.lysator.liu.se /art/r/h/rhodri/zarathustra.jpg.html   (1885 words)

PASALA Graduate Student Symposium 1997: Mshana He wants to be recognized as a Zaramo artist, not as a Makonde artist, in spite of the potential for fame in being perceived as a Makonde artist or being associated with the widely recognized Makonde sculptural style. Within Zaramo carving circles, his compatriots have often compared him with Makonde artists, remarking: "La, yule bwana kwa kweli Mungu amemjalia--ni hadari, anachonga kupita Wamahonde.4 Here, the Makonde are taken as the yardstick in carving excellence in Tanza-nia, even as the Zaramo rate their own as a superior artist. She submits, however, that there is not enough evidence to support this development idea since there is no written material from the eighteenth century or earlier. sdrc.lib.uiowa.edu /ceras/baobab/mshana.html   (1885 words)

Quarry Bank Mill - source related study. However, the picture only shows one part of the mill, other evidence contradicts this and we do not know where the artist of the picture got his evidence. The fifth and last source, Source E, is a picture of a mule-spinning mill in 1835 and therefore shows visual evidence from inside the mill. This is backed up by evidence from the site visit, which shows that punishments were not as harsh at Quarry Bank. www.coursework.info /i/41229.html   (328 words)

The Bias Against Guns "[Lott] marshals unimpeachable evidence on how the anti-gun crusade, driven by sins of omission and commission, might actually be costing many more lives than it saves.

Giornale Nuovo: Mantegna, Engraver None of the prints linked to Mantegna bear his signature or monogram, and there is no reliable contemporary documentary evidence that Mantegna produced engravings himself, although Vasari, in his 1550 account of the artist's life does state that: The Renaissance artist Andrea Mantegna (1431-1506) was a painter and draughtsman of great renown, and also a pioneering and prolific graphic artist, one of the first in Northern Italy to make prints from engraved copper plates.

BBC NEWS UK Author denies 'Ripper' obsession Cornwell's main evidence was the discovery of the same watermarks on the artist's personal letters as on letters sent by Jack the Ripper, taunting the police.
