Designing 21st Century Standard Ware: The Cultural Heritage of Leach and the Potential Applications of Digital Technologies
No full textThis practice-based research investigates the potential applications of digital manufacturing technologies in the design and production of hand-made tableware at the Leach Pottery. The methodology for the research establishes an approach grounded in my previous experience as a maker that is informed by an open, experimental, emergent, and responsive framework based on Naturalistic Inquiry.
A critical contextual review describes the cultural heritage of Leach which, for the purposes of the research, is developed through the Leach Pottery as a significant site, the historical production of the iconic Leach Standard Ware and the contemporary production of Leach Tableware. This is followed by an examination of Potter’s Tools in the Leach production environment, and a review of makers’ digital ceramic practice.
The contextual review is followed by an explication of ‘standards’ presented through visual lineages of Standard Ware and Leach Tableware to define ‘standard’ at a design (macro) level, followed by an examination of how ‘standard’ operates at a making (micro level) level. This chapter presents new knowledge in relation to defining the visual field of Leach Pottery tableware production and its standards of design.
A chapter focussed on practice presents the outcomes and analysis of my engagement with digital manufacturing technologies which resulted in the development of new tools to support Leach Tableware production and the interrogation of Leach forms, in different mediums, which led to the creation of Digital-Analogue Leach forms. The practice culminated in the design and development of new 21st century Standard Ware: a range of 9 forms, called Echo of Leach, that were developed by myself using digital and analogue methods: the designs were realised by myself, the Leach Studio, and a further four makers. The outcomes of the research were presented in a three month exhibition at the Leach Pottery in 2013.
The conclusions of the research draw on the key points raised in the analysis of the practice and relate these to the approaches to making pottery that are highlighted in the cultural heritage of Leach in the contextual review. These are also discussed in relation to ways in which these findings could be taken forward into development of knowledge about Standard Ware, especially in a broader studio pottery context
Edward Twichell Ware Records
No full textEdward Twichell Ware, son of Edmund Asa Ware, (first president of Atlanta University 1869-1885) became Atlanta University's third president in 1907 and served until he became seriously ill in 1919. Ware was born in Atlanta in 1874 and attended his father's alma mater, Yale University. After graduation he was designated as Northern Secretary for Atlanta University, a position which mainly involved raising funds for Atlanta University by addressing organizations on the work of the school. In 1901 Ware was appointed Chaplain of Atlanta University. He served in this position while continuing his fund raising efforts until he was elected President in 1907. During the administration of Edward Ware, new courses in industrial arts and education were added to meet the demand for Atlanta University graduates as teachers in the public schools.

Mary Ware Dennett letter to Lucile Atcherson, April 13, 1914
No full textOn April 13, 1914, Mary Ware Dennett, a women's rights activist, wrote this letter to Lucile Atcherson, a suffragist in central Ohio who served as executive secretary of the Franklin County Woman Suffrage Association. In the letter, Dennett is answering a request from Atcherson for a list of female Labor movement speakers who could have come to Ohio to campaign for women's suffrage. Dennett listed several speakers who could have been available to come to Ohio.
The Franklin County Woman Suffrage Association was formed in 1912, after the Ohio Constitutional Convention elected to bring to a vote the question of removing the words "white male" from the state constitution with regard to voting rights. Headquartered in the Chamber of Commerce building in Columbus, Ohio, the organization put out regular publications, organized public speeches and meetings, distributed literature and held parades in support of the suffrage movement. Women's suffrage in Ohio was defeated in a special election in 1912 and again in 1914 and 1916 before a resolution narrowly passed in 1917 allowing municipal voting by women in Columbus. In 1920, the 19th Amendment passed, extending the vote to women and prohibiting state and federal government from denying suffrage on the basis of sex

Life of Saint Gregory the Great Written in Four Books by John the Deacon: A Translation and Commentary of Book III
No full textThose interested in St. Gregory and his times find constant reference to the life of that pope written by John the Deacon. Because no translation of that work has hitherto appeared in English, a group of students, at the suggestion of Dr. L.V. Jacks, director of the classical department of The Creighton University, decided to undertake a translation and commentary on the Vita as their piece of research. |Since Books I and II of the Vita Sancti Gregorii Magni were already in process of translation when this work was begun, the original plan was to present a translation and commentary on Books III and IV. However, as the manuscript took shape, it ran into a forbidding length--some three hundred pages of translation alone; hence the first plan was abandoned and the scope of the work was limited to the third book alone. The text used was that of J.P. Migne, Volume LXXV of Patrologlae cursus completus Patrum Latinorum, which in the course of this study will be referred to as the Patrologia Latina. |Through the commentary the author has endeavored to supplement and clarify the text and to present various views on controversial questions. No textual, grammatical, or stylistic problems are handled, herein since these points have already been treated by competent scholars in this field. |This study has the secondary purpose of examining the historiography of John the Deacon in the Vita III. As background material a chapter containing the few known facts about this Roman deacon of the ninth century and his works has been included; also a chapter dealing with the early life and writings of St. Gregory because this material is not included in Book III.ProQuest Traditional Publishing Optio

Author Co-Citation Analysis (ACA): a powerful tool for representing implicit knowledge of scholar knowledge workers
No full textIn the last decade, knowledge has emerged as one of the most important and valuable organizational assets. Gradually this importance caused to emergence of new discipline entitled ―knowledge management‖. However one of the major challenges of knowledge management is conversion implicit or tacit knowledge to explicit knowledge. Thus Making knowledge visible so that it can be better accessed, discussed, valued or generally managed is a long-standing objective in knowledge management. Accordingly in this paper author co- citation analysis (ACA) will be proposed as an efficient technique of knowledge visualization in academia (Scholar knowledge workers)
