Hindemith's joust with Weber tunes was a considerably more serious misfortune, for it demands transluscent textures, buoyant rhythms, and astringent wit.

The system was described in 1976 by Guy Ottewell and also by Robert J. Weber, who coined the term " approval voting.

Carl Maria von Weber, a relative of Mozart by marriage whom Wagner has characterized as the most German of German composers, is said to have refused to join Ludlams-Höhle, a social club of which Salieri was a member and avoided having anything to do with him.

It was based on an earlier code developed by Carl Friedrich Gauss and Wilhelm Weber in 1834.

On the way home from Riemann's lecture, Weber reported that Gauss was full of praise and excitement.

The CMM was published as a book in 1995 by its primary authors, Mark C. Paulk, Charles V. Weber, Bill Curtis, and Mary Beth Chrissis.

The sociologist Max Weber was born in Erfurt, and the theologian and philosopher Meister Eckhart was Prior of Erfurt's Dominican Order.

In opera, a new Romantic atmosphere combining supernatural terror and melodramatic plot in a folkloric context was first successfully achieved by Carl Maria von Weber ( 1786 – 1826 ) and perfected by Richard Wagner ( 1813 – 1883 ) in his Ring Cycle.

German sociologist Max Weber mentioned Scottish Presbyterianism in The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism ( 1905 ), and many scholars in recent decades argued that Calvinism's " this worldly asceticism " was integral to Scotland's rapid economic modernization.

Kennedy was accompanied not by Robert Lochner, but by Heinz Weber of the Berlin mission ; Weber translated the president's speech to the audience.

" The crowd was quiet while Weber translated and repeated the president's German line ; Kennedy was obviously relieved at the crowd's positive response and thanked Weber for his translation.

The IEC was instrumental in developing and distributing standards for units of measurement, particularly Gauss, Hertz, and Weber.

Work on KQML was led by Tim Finin of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County and Jay Weber of EITech and involved contributions from many researchers.

Maximilian Karl Emil " Max " Weber (; 21 April 1864 – 14 June 1920 ) was a German sociologist, philosopher, and political economist who profoundly influenced social theory, social research, and the discipline of sociology itself.

Weber was a key proponent of methodological antipositivism, arguing for the study of social action through interpretive ( rather than purely empiricist ) means, based on understanding the purpose and meaning that individuals attach to their own actions.

Weber is perhaps best known for his thesis combining economic sociology and the sociology of religion, elaborated in his book The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, in which he proposed that ascetic Protestantism was one of the major " elective affinities " associated with the rise in the Western world of market-driven capitalism and the rational-legal nation-state.

After the First World War, Max Weber was among the founders of the liberal German Democratic Party.

Weber was born in 1864, in Erfurt, Thuringia.

He was the eldest of the seven children of Max Weber Sr., a wealthy and prominent civil servant and member of the National Liberal Party, and his wife Helene ( Fallenstein ), who partly descended from French Huguenot immigrants and held strong moral absolutist ideas.

Weber was put in charge of the study and wrote a large part of the final report, which generated considerable attention and controversy and marked the beginning of Weber's renown as a social scientist.

The analogy with the Riemann surface case was already pointed out by Richard Dedekind and Heinrich M. Weber in the nineteenth century.

Sombart's insistence on Sociology as a part of the Humanities ( Geisteswissenschaften ), necessarily so because it dealt with human beings and therefore required inside, empathic " Verstehen " rather than the outside, objectivizing " Begreifen " ( both German words translate as " understanding " into English ), became extremely unpopular already during his lifetime, because it was the opposite of the " scientification " of the social sciences, in the tradition of Auguste Comte, Émile Durkheim and Weber ( although this is a misunderstanding ; Weber largely shared Sombart's views in these matters ), which became fashionable during this time and has more or less remained so until today.

The group soon changed their name, for the final time, to Hollywood Rose when Weber discovered that the name Rose was already being used by a New York band.

Col. Max Weber, commanding the Federal troops already on shore, noted this and put some men in to take possession, but the fleet did not know this and continued firing for another five minutes.

Whether it was already controversial European artists like Picasso, Matisse or Cézanne, or relatively unknown but soon-to-be-famous Americans like Marin, Weber, Dove or Hartley, Stieglitz had both the aesthetic sense and the nerve to showcase individuals who are now acknowledged to have been at the forefront of modern art.

From this age of 10 Weber was already reading The Three Musketeers by Alexander Dumas, adventure novels by Karl Frederich May, poetry by Victor Hugo and Homer.

Klarmann / Weber have already had successful international releases, e. g. with Chaka Khan, Randy Crawford, Paul Anka, Nancy Wilson, La Toya Jackson, Toni Braxton, Tracie Spencer and La Bouche / Melanie Thornton.

Weber also writes that " the affluent embrace good fortune theodicies, which emphasise that prosperity is a blessing of God ... theodices of misfortune emphasise that affluence is a sign of evil and that suffering in this world will be rewarded in the next.

For theodicies of suffering, Weber argued that three different kinds of theodicy emerged-predestination, dualism, and karma-all of which attempt to satisfy the human need for meaning, and he believed that the quest for meaning, when considered in light of suffering, becomes the problem of suffering.

He had to leave the game, however, after suffering a cut on his leg from the skate blade of teammate Yannick Weber.

Derived from Marx and Max Weber, Karl August Wittfogel argued that bureaucracy arose to manage irrigation systems.

Modern critical theory arose from the anti-positivist sociology of Max Weber and Georg Simmel, the Marxist theories of György Lukács and of Antonio Gramsci, towards that of the Institute for Social Research in Frankfurt.

His inventions were based on the printing mechanism from Hughes ' instrument, a distributor invented by Bernard Meyer during 1871, and the five-unit code devised by Carl Friedrich Gauss and Wilhelm Weber.

Several of Dole's other campaign ideas came from Kemp and Bill Bennett's Empower America, which had Jeane Kirkpatrick, Weber, Forbes and Alexander as principals.

After retiring from Congress and serving in the Cabinet, Kemp remained close to Gingrich, Lott, Weber, and Mack.

Although social scientists such as Max Weber sought to understand and explain religion in terms of a cultural attribute, Richard Dawkins called for a re-analysis of religion in terms of the evolution of self-replicating ideas apart from any resulting biological advantages they might bestow.

After his first few years as a student, during which he spent much time " drinking beer and fencing ," Weber would increasingly take his mother's side in family arguments and grew estranged from his father.

He opposed both the leftist German Revolution of 1918 – 1919 and the ratification of the Treaty of Versailles, a principled position that defied the political alignments in Germany at that time and which may have prevented Friedrich Ebert, the new social-democratic President of Germany, from appointing Weber as minister or ambassador.

Weber distinguished social action from social behaviour, noting that social action must be understood through how individuals subjectively relate to one another.

" In other words, Weber argued that social phenomena can be understood scientifically only to the extent that they are captured by models of the behaviour of purposeful individuals, models which Weber called " ideal types ," from which actual historical events will necessarily deviate due to accidental and irrational factors.

Weber also saw rationalisation as one of the main factors setting the European West apart from the rest of the world.

Weber was ambivalent towards rationalisation ; while admitting it was responsible for many advances, in particular, freeing humans from traditional, restrictive and illogical social guidelines, he also criticised it for dehumanising individuals as " cogs in the machine " and curtailing their freedom, trapping them in the bureaucratic iron cage of rationality and bureaucracy.

Weber also proposed a socioevolutionary model of religious change, showing that in general, societies have moved from magic to polytheism, then to pantheism, monotheism and finally, ethical monotheism.

Weber focused on those aspects of Chinese society that were different from those of Western Europe, especially those aspects which contrasted with Puritanism.

Weber ended his research of society and religion in India by bringing in insights from his previous work on China to discuss similarities of the Asian belief systems.

Weber juxtaposed such Messianic prophecies ( also called ethical prophecies ), notably from the Near East region to the exemplary prophecies found on the Asiatic mainland, focused more on reaching to the educated elites and enlightening them on the proper ways to live one's life, usually with little emphasis on hard work and the material world.

Weber noted that some aspects of Christianity sought to conquer and change the world, rather than withdraw from its imperfections.

According to Weber, the city as a politically autonomous organization of people living in close proximity, employed in a variety of specialized trades, and physically separated from the surrounding countryside, only fully developed in the West and to a great extent shaped its cultural evolution:

Knight also wrote in 1956 that Max Weber was the only economist who dealt with the problem of understanding the emergence of modern capitalism " from the angle which alone can yield an answer to such questions, that is, the angle of comparative history in the broad sense.
