Culture Conflict As It Relates To A Psychocultural Therapeutic Model For Chicanos, Armando Tena

The Arthurian Legend In Malory And The 1970'S: A Comparison, Marian R. Rengel

Culminating Projects in English

The 1970's Arthurian fiction represents the latest step in the legend's growth; Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morte Darthur represents a landing five-hundred years down the staircase. The comparison of Malory and these 1970's authors in their handling of Arthur's and Merlin's characters, of magic, and of violence, not only distinguishes between authors and times, but explores the aspects of the legend which future writers will need to consider.

In working with Arthur's story, modern authors return the king to his place of prominence and work with explaining the inconsistencies in his character which they found in Malory - his abdication …

Socio-Historical Studies Of The National Woman's Party And The National Women's Trade Union League, Janet Ellen Joseph

Honors Papers

In every society there are individuals or groups of people who have the power to control, or at least direct, various resources. Resources, an ambiguous term, can mean anything from monetary supplies to legislative sanctions to different objects or opportunities.. Just as there will be individuals controlling these assets, there will also be groups perceiving and expressing discontent. For example, these people may be dissatisfied with the power groups' methods of leadership; they may perceive their needs to be neglected and/or they may want to seize control of these assets and channel resources into their own hands for the betterment …

The Cause Of Sobriety : David Lloyd George And Temperance Reform, Philip A. Krinsky

Honors Theses

Temperance was a major British issue after World War I. Excessive drunkenness, not alcoholism per se, was the primary concern of the two parliamentary parties. When Lloyd George enter Parliament the two major parties were the Liberals and the Conservatives. Temperance was neither a problem that Parliament sought to quickly solve nor the single issue of Lloyd George's public career. Rather, temperance remained within a flux of political squabbling between the two parties and even among the respective blocs within each Party. Inevitably, compromises had to be made between the dissenting factions.
