Methodist Circuit-Riders In America, 1766-1844, William A. Powell Jr. Aug 1977

Methodist Circuit-Riders In America, 1766-1844, William A. Powell Jr.

Master's Theses

The Methodist Episcopal Church became the largest religious denomination in the United States during the 1820's. Local expressions of the national body were established in nearly every American community. Methodist expansion was largely a result of the activity of circuitriders. These itinerants traveled and proclaimed the gospel to citizens, many of whom joined the Church and became part of a religious movement which influenced the l development of culture in the United States.

The traveling minister in the Methodist Church was noted for his self-sacrificing spirit. He endured hardships in the ministry which few men of the present age can …

Mccarthyism In Utah, Richard Swanson Jan 1977

Mccarthyism In Utah, Richard Swanson

Theses and Dissertations

The exaggerated anti-Communist crusade of Senator Joseph McCarthy allegedly gained the support of a majority of Americans during the early 1950's. It is historically important and interesting to question that supposition by considering the character of McCarthy's following in each state. This study shows that in Utah sympathy for the second Red Scare abounded and evidences of McCarthyism were readily apparent.

Three indicators illustrate Utah's support for the Wisconsin senator. The defeat of Elbert Thomas in 1950 dramatically epitomizes the successful use of incriminating allegations effectively employed by McCarthy. The election, or re-election, of McCarthy supporters and the defeat of …


A Study Of Household Determinants Of Migration, Paul A. Tatsch Jan 1977

A Study Of Household Determinants Of Migration, Paul A. Tatsch

Graduate Dissertations and Theses

Throughout history, human population has been characterized by significant geographical redistribution in response to climatic changes, varying economic exigencies and other impelling factors such as slavery. While significant intercontinental movements have for the most part been culminated, the process of internal migration is a factor which continues to influence economic growth, development and change of most economic systems. It represents a dynamic adjustment process of individuals and populations to economic and social alternatives and within each system it also serves as an important means of human resource allocation and reallocation among competing geographical alternatives.

Studies of migration flows and characteristics …


The Demise Of The Dialectic: Historical Consciousness And The American Experience, Samuel Martineau Jan 1977

The Demise Of The Dialectic: Historical Consciousness And The American Experience, Samuel Martineau

Graduate Dissertations and Theses

This thesis originated out of a desire to utilize some of the basic insights of the Frankfurt school in order to analyze the significance and meaning of the structural dynamics of the American past. In doing this, I have attempted to provide some of the basic categories of Critical Theory with a concrete historical content, and I have sought to demonstrate the absolute necessity of including these categories in any historical investigation that seeks to convey the ultimate meaning of the history that it studies.

The thesis itself is divided into two parts. In part One, I present what might …

The Politics Of John Muir, Dorothy M. Freeman Jan 1977

The Politics Of John Muir, Dorothy M. Freeman

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

A man does not always see himself as others see him. John Muir is venerated by several generations of Americans as a man who left a legacy of State and National Parks, State and National Forests, outdoor beauty and untouched wilderness areas which would never have survived has it not been for this dedicated man.

He did not plan such a course. He did what he found necessary to be done, without thought of personal gain or public honor.

However, during his lifetime there were those who did not view him with such veneration. Countless ranchers, lumberman and politicians must …
