The Most Magnificent Way: Learning to Live from the Author of Life

The Most Magnificent Way: Learning to Live from the Author of Life

Alan Wagner

2015
nidottu
Jesus lived and taught a way of life that was so inspiring, so vibrant and so compelling, that people from all walks of life completely abandoned their ways of living and embraced his. As these people lived out their magnificently transformed lives in community, a new faith-based culture emerged which spread across the known world like a wild fire. Sadly, many modern-day Christians do not live inspiring, vibrant and compelling lives. They are trying to live "good lives", but they are not enjoying this most magnificent way. This book takes a fresh look at Jesus, his words and his ways, helping us to rediscover and experience the magnificent life that he came to bring us.

A Guide to Implementation Research

A Guide to Implementation Research

Alan Werner

Rowman Littlefield
2004
nidottu
The 1990s’ historic welfare reform legislation shifted U.S. social policy institutions from a bureaucratic, centralized mode for income transfer, to a “professional” mode aimed at complex behavioral change. The evaluation community has responded with a shift from traditional impact analyses to implementation studies that get to the heart of this more flexible structure. A Guide to Implementation Research, by Alan Werner, is the first volume to offer comprehensive, practical advice on conducting implementation studies in the context of program evaluation. The first chapter presents an introduction to implementation research and an overview of how to organize and conduct an implementation study. Chapter Two covers the variety of data needs and data collection techniques encountered in Implementation Research. Chapter Three describes how to organize the data to document program implementation and results. Chapter Four covers approaches to assess and explain program implementation. Each chapter contains multiple examples from the research literature as well as the work of professional evaluators. For students and practitioners of evaluation research, this book is a complete, concise, and essential guide.

Gus Wagner

Gus Wagner

Alan Govenar

SCHIFFER PUBLISHING LTD
2023
sidottu
A visual history of the life of Augustus “Gus” Wagner and his work as a hand tattoo artist, exploring a relatively unknown area of American art history from the 1890s to the 1930s. In 1897, Gus Wagner embarked on a four-year career as a merchant seaman. While traveling the world, he discovered the art of tattooing, learning from tribesmen in Java and Borneo who showed him how to use traditional handmade tools. By 1901, Gus reportedly had 264 tattoos of his own (and over 800 by 1908), allowing him to promote himself as “the most artistically marked-up man in America.” Back home, Gus embarked on a 40-year career as a traveling tattooist, tattooed man, and circus performer. He largely eschewed the new electric tattooing machines that transformed the art form after 1890, and remained faithful to his handheld instruments. Along with other wandering artists, Gus carried tattooing inland from coastal ports, making it part of the culture of small-town America in the 20th century. Highlights of this book include: • More than 100 examples of Gus Wagner’s tattoo flash as well as photos of his life and work, including his handheld tattooing tools • Excerpts from interviews with Gus, telling his story in his own words • Selected passages from three of Herman Melville’s novels—Typee, White Jacket, and Moby Dick, to illuminate the context of the oral history of Gus Wagner (Melville was an astute observer of hand tattoo artists and their clientele) The tattoo flash in this book is a testimony to the richness of Gus Wagner’s image vocabulary, his life, and his artistic influences. This is the first in a series of three books exploring "the Last of the Hand Tattoo Artists." The next two books focus on Gus's wife, Maud, and their daughter, Lovetta, renowned hand tattoo artists in their own right.

The true story of a strong, successful, and independent woman tattooist and artist through her own words and art; the third book in a series about the Wagner tattooist family.? Lotteva Wagner Davis was an American original—a tattooist and western artist in the early to mid-20th century. Following in the footsteps of her parents, Gus and Maud Wagner—famous tattoo artists and carnival performers—Lotteva was raised in the carnival and started tattooing in 1919, when she was just nine years old. Like her father, she used only hand tools, eschewing electric tattoo machines. She was one of few tattooists to have completely bare skin; her mother forbade her father to tattoo her, relenting only after his death, but Lotteva didn’t want to be tattooed by anyone but her father. This is the third book in the series on the Wagner family, Last of the Hand Tattoo Artists, and is based on interviews with Lotteva and her cousin, Patricia Hook. It includes tattoo flash by Lotteva and her father, Gus, comparing their artistic styles and showing the evolution of hand tattoos from one generation to the next. Lotteva was also a prolific artist, focusing on western US and carnival themes. She also restored carousel horses and painted signs for carousels, carnivals, and other businesses. According to her cousin, Lotteva was “a person with one foot grounded in the ordinary world and the other in this crazy carnival world. Most people would never dare to do the stuff she did.”

The true story of Maud Wagner—contortionist, aerial artist, carnival performer and barker, wife, and mother—who defied Victorian-era conventions to blaze her own trail. Maud Stevens Wagner, the "Mona Lisa of American tattoo," was an ardent individualist who left home at a young age to pursue a career of her own making. An acrobat, she exuded an athletic strength as an aerial artist and contortionist. In the early 20th century, she was a thoroughly modern woman who asserted her independence and her own identity. Together with her husband, Gus (known as the “most artistically marked-up man in America"), Maud balanced parenting and work, traveling around the country as the Wagner’s Traveling Museum, exhibiting themselves and making tattoos in circus and carnival sideshows, dime museums, and pop-up shops. At the height of their careers, Maud and Gus established the Wagner Amusement Company and expanded their work to become promoters of street fairs, carnivals, and expositions. This book is the second of three in the series Last of the Hand Tattoo Artists, detailing the lives of Gus Wagner, Maud Wagner, and their daughter, Lotteva. Author Alan Govenar brings you Maud’s story with • an oral history from Maud’s daughter Lotteva Wagner Davis; • archival photos of Maud, Gus, and Maud's tattoos; • clippings and photographs from Gus Wagner’s scrapbooks; • the Wagners' tattoo flash from Gus Wagner's notebooks; and • newspaper articles and obituaries detailing Maud’s life. As the author eloquently puts it, “In one sense, Gus and Maud challenged all expectations, but in another, they embodied and celebrated the can-do spirit intrinsic to American life.”

Wagner, Schumann, and the Lessons of Beethoven's Ninth

Wagner, Schumann, and the Lessons of Beethoven's Ninth

Christopher Alan Reynolds

University of California Press
2015
sidottu
In this original study, Christopher Alan Reynolds examines the influence of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony on two major nineteenth-century composers, Richard Wagner and Robert Schumann. During 1845 46 the compositional styles of Schumann and Wagner changed in a common direction, toward a style that was more contrapuntal, more densely motivic, and engaged in processes of thematic transformation. Reynolds shows that the stylistic advances that both composers made in Dresden in 1845 46 stemmed from a deepened understanding of Beethoven's techniques and strategies in the Ninth Symphony. The evidence provided by their compositions from this pivotal year and the surrounding years suggests that they discussed Beethoven's Ninth with each other in the months leading up to the performance of this work, which Wagner conducted on Palm Sunday in 1846. Two primary aspects that appear to have interested them both are Beethoven's use of counterpoint involving contrary motion and his gradual development of the Ode to Joy" melody through the preceding movements. Combining a novel examination of the historical record with careful readings of the music, Reynolds adds further layers to this argument, speculating that Wagner and Schumann may not have come to these discoveries entirely independently of each other. The trail of influences that Reynolds explores extends back to the music of Bach and ahead to Tristan and Isolde, as well as to Brahms's First Symphony.
