(June 14, 1890 – July 30, 1969) was an American artist and educator known for his masterful. Especially his impressionistic landscapes. Ogunquit Museum of American Art. In Maine has over 120 of his watercolors representing all aspects of his work. His paintings are in the collections of many museums in the USA and have been the subject of exhibitions throughout the United States. He was an influential educator through his nearly 40 years of teaching, writing, and film making. Eliot O’Hara was born in 1890, in Waltham, Massachusetts to Daniel and Mayfred O’Hara. His father was the owner of the. O’Hara Waltham Dial Company. And Eliot went into the family business. In 1923 he began teaching himself to paint with watercolors while continuing to work at the family factory. In 1927, O’Hara took a few courses at the Boston Museum School and at the School of Fine arts and Crafts in Boston and then, in 1928, he was awarded a Guggenheim fellowship in painting. In 1929 O’Hara undertook an epic journey through Soviet Russia. Traveling by train, horseback and foot, he produced 130 sketches and watercolors that he later completed at a studio in Paris. The paintings were exhibited in the Soviet Union and at galleries in London, Boston, and New York. A selection of the paintings toured throughout the United States. He remained an avid traveler and. Throughout his life, locations for his paintings include Peru, Australia, Japan, China, Indonesia, and Thailand. In 1931, he opened the Eliot O’Hara School for Watercolor Painting in. The school was active until it burned down in the. Great Fires of 1947. After the fire, O’Hara continued to offer classroom instruction at summer workshops around the United States. O’Hara authored his first book of watercolor instruction in 1931, his final book was published in 1966. In the late 1940s O’Hara began making art education films for. His last film was made in 1961. In 1948 O’Hara was among the first water-colorists inducted into the. National Academy of Design. O’Hara died in Washington D. In 1969 from cancer of the kidney. Beginning with his first exhibitions, O’Hara was noted for his technical skill in watercolor. He preserved and advanced his mastery of the medium throughout his life, achieving a “miraculous” level of skill. For O’Hara, mastery was not an end but a means to achieve expression of his artistic voice. He wrote that “the problems of techniques and materials are of relatively minor importance” and that the goal is to use technique to achieve the greatest possible emotional thrust. O’Hara mainly painted outdoors, finding in nature a reliable source of inspiration. His later landscapes became less complex tending towards simple washes with spare, obvious brushstrokes. These later restrained and abstracted landscapes, of surprising simplicity, evoke a calm, profound power that stand with the finest of American watercolors. O’Hara worked primarily with transparent watercolors but he was open to other media. He taught himself several printmaking techniques, made collages, experimented with acrylics, and sometimes painted with gouache and casein. O’Hara taught watercolor painting at his school in Maine and at classes sponsored by universities, museums and art associations around the United States. O’Hara said that his teaching was “predicated on the assumption that art itself cannot be taught”, therefore his teaching focused on the development of technical skills as a means to self expression. His student, Carl Schmalz, attempted to capture the organization and content of his classroom teaching in the book “Water Color Lessons from Eliot O’Hara”. In addition to his classroom teaching, O’Hara wrote books on watercolor painting and made art education films. His notable students include Carl Schmalz.

Presbyterian preacher, scholar and professor, great-grandson of Judge Joseph Crosby of Massachusetts and of Gen. Of New York, a signer of the U. And the father of. And a relative of. Crosby was also a descendant of. Crosby was born in New York City in 1826. He graduated in 1844 from. Where he was one of the founding fathers of the Gamma Chapter of the. Fraternity, and became professor of Greek at NYU in 1851. In 1859, he was appointed professor of Greek at. New Brunswick, New Jersey. Where two years later he was ordained pastor of the.

Then known as the University of the City of New York. He was one of the American revisers of the English version of the New Testament. Crosby took a prominent part in politics. He urged to excise reform and opposed total abstinence.

President of the American Philological Association. And in 1871 gave a presidential address, excerpted in the Proceedings of the American Philological Association. Linguistics or philology may be considered either as a science or as a philosophy. Under the first aspect we may gain some idea of its extent by thinking of the vast number of languages which are to be investigated, not only those now spoken, but also many of which we have but the fossils. It touches here psychology and history, and enables us to know the unseen. A linguistic criticism is the source of all true commentary. By philology we can reconstruct prehistoric man, and read the history of times before the Olympiads and Nabonassar. Languages are never lost. By this science, the original unity of the human race is already nearly proved.. Again philology as a philosophy speculates on the value of language to man, and its relations to his mind. These speculations are not to be confounded with the facts of the science.. Every profound thinker has found himself fettered by language. Hence disputes and misunderstandings have arisen. Also in poetry, in devotion, in music, language is shown to be imperfect; it can never be made sufficient for the whole realm of thought. Man in his development, must have a nobler and fuller language than he has to-day. This may be in a new creation with spiritual bodies. The President, in conclusion, referred to the field of American languages as especially open to the researches of the Association, suggesting its division into sections and the organization of local branches (Crosby 1871: 8, quotation marks in the original). From 1872 to 1880 Crosby was a member of the New Testament Company of the American Revision Committee. Crosby married Margaret Evertson Givan, a daughter of John Givan and Mary Ann Evertson, she a granddaughter of Jacob Evertson of. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Autographs\Historical”.

Used to smooth fluctuations in a time series. Edward Prescott and Finn Kydland. Nobel prize for economics. Was based on two papers Prescott and Kydland wrote. In the first paper, written in 1977 “Rules Rather than Discretion: The inconsistency of optimal planning” Prescott and Kydland argue that purpose and goals of economic planning and policy is to trigger a desired response from the economy. However, Prescott and Kydland realized that these sectors are made up of individuals, individuals who make assumptions and predictions about the future. As Prescott and Kydland stated Even if there is a fixed and agreed upon. Know the timing and magnitude of the effects of their actions… Correct evaluation of the end-of-point position does not result in the social objective being maximized. Prescott and Kyland were pointing out that agents in the economy already factor into their decision making the assumed response by policy makers to a given economic climate. Additionally Prescott and Kydland felt that the policy makers due to their relationship with government suffered from a credibility issue. The reason for this dynamic is that the political process is designed to fix problems and benefit its citizens today. Prescott and Kydland demonstrated this with a simple yet convincing example. However, rational agents are forward planning creatures and know that if they and others build houses in the flood plain the government which makes decisions based on current situations will then provide flood protection in the future. While Prescott never uses these words he is describing a moral hazard. The second paper, written in 1982, “Time to Build and Aggregate Fluctuations” Prescott and Kydland argued that shifts in supply typically caused by changes and improvements in technology accounted Not only long term increases in living standards but also to many of the short term fluctuations in business cycles. To study this hypothesis Prescott established a model to study the change in output, investment, consumption, labor productivity, and employment, between the end of the Second World War and 1980. Using this model the two economists were able to correlate 70% of the fluctuation in output to changes and growth in technology. Their main contribution, however, was the way of modeling macroeconomic variables with microfoundations. View more great items. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Autographs\Historical”.

Blind Men and an Elephant John Saxe Hand Written Letter Todd Mueller COA

“Blind Men and an Elephant” John Saxe Hand Written Letter Dated 1859. This item is certified authentic by Todd Mueller Auctions and comes with their Certificate of Authenticity. John Godfrey Saxe I (June 2, 1816 – March 31, 1887) was an American poet known for his re-telling of the Indian parable “The Blind Men and the Elephant”, which introduced the story to a Western audience. He also said Laws, like sausages, cease to inspire respect in proportion as we know how they are made. Saxe was born in 1816 in Highgate, Vermont, [2] at Saxe’s Mills, where his settler grandfather, John Saxe (Johannes Sachse), a German immigrant and Loyalist to the Crown, built the area’s first gristmill in 1786. Saxe was the son of Peter Saxe, miller, judge and periodic member of the Vermont General Assembly; and Elizabeth Jewett of Weybridge, Vermont. The poet was named for two of his paternal uncles, John and Godfrey, who had died as young men before his birth. Raised in a strict Methodist home, Saxe was first sent, in 1835, to Wesleyan University which he left after a year, and then to Middlebury College, from which he graduated in 1839. In 1841 he married Sophia Newell Sollace, a sister of a Middlebury classmate, with whom he had a son, John Theodore Saxe. He was admitted to the Vermont bar in 1843 and tried to run a business with his dutiful and pious older brother, Charles Jewett Saxe. For some years he practised successfully in Franklin County. In 1850-51 he serves as state’s attorney for Chittenden County. The words “dutiful” and “pious” never applied to the aspiring satirist. Bored by his legal work, Saxe began publishing poems for The Knickerbocker, of which “The Rhyme of the Rail” is his most famous early work. He soon caught the attention of the prominent Boston publishing house Ticknor and Fields. Though he received no royalties for his first volume, it ran to ten reprintings and eventually outsold works by Nathaniel Hawthorne and Alfred, Lord Tennyson. His poem “The Puzzled Census-Taker” amused many, and “Rhyme of the Rail” was possibly the most admired poem of the period about rail travel. [1] Saxe was editor of the Sentinel in Burlington, Vermont, from 1850 to 1856. In 1856, he served as attorney-general of Vermont. Saxe became a sought after speaker, toured frequently and stayed prolific throughout the 1850s. In 1859 he ran unsuccessfully for governor of Vermont. [3] As a northern Democrat, he advocated a non-interference policy on slavery and supported Illinois Senator Douglas’s policy of “popular sovereignty”, a position which rendered the poet extremely unpopular in Republican Vermont. After his second, and even more punishing electoral defeat, Saxe left his home state in 1860 for neighboring Albany, New York. Saxe spent his summers in Saratoga, contributed articles for the Albany Evening Journal and Albany Morning Argus, and published poems in Harper’s, The Atlantic, and the Knickerbocker, and remained popular on the lecture circuit. “The Proud Miss McBride” and “Song of Saratoga” were some of famous works in this period. However, his attempts to re-enter politics remained unsuccessful. Always mercurial, Saxe became more erratic following the death of his oldest brother in 1867. He was not temperamentally suited to assume the role of head of the family. Instead the poet’s son, John Theodore Saxe, took the reins of his brother’s lumber firm and managed the family’s finances. The 1870s, while living in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn, began a series of woes for Saxe. His youngest daughter died of tuberculosis. In 1875, he suffered head injuries in a rail accident near Wheeling, West Virginia, from which he never fully recovered, and then over the next several years his two oldest daughters, his eldest son, and daughter-in-law also died of tuberculosis. In 1879, his wife burst a blood vessel in her brain and collapsed and died. Including a young son who died in the 1840s, Mr. Saxe had buried five of his six children as well as his wife. Saxe sank deep into depression and was moved back to Albany to live with his last surviving child, Charles. His decline from the rollicking poet to grieving recluse earned the sympathy of the people of Albany, and when he died in 1887, the New York State Assembly ordered his likeness to be chiseled into the “poet’s corner” of the Great Western Staircase in the New York State Capitol.
