The Process Of Professional Translation, Veronica Chavez, Sophia Holt, Suresh Portillo, Alejandra Pulgarin, Makayla Tjernagel

Celebration of Research

The process of translating this dental document for a local children’s dentist’s clinic in Sioux Center is time-consuming and very researched-based. The critical element of this research involves researching specific dental and medical terms from Spanish-speaking sources, be it dental offices in Latin America and Spain or from professional translation sites. As a Translation 3 class, we were approached by a Northwestern alumnus who is practicing dentistry and opening her own dental clinic to request that we translate her dental clinic’s policies and agreements for her Hispanic patients. As a class, we undertook the task of translating the alumnus’ documents …

The Theatre Of Ambiguity, Hannah Wamhoff

Celebration of Research

The increased diversity of beliefs surrounding the definition of gender identity and gender roles has enhanced the need for research on historical societies' beliefs and practices.

Secondly, as you …


Limited Atonement In 1 John 2:2, Steven Clark Apr 2018

Limited Atonement In 1 John 2:2, Steven Clark

Celebration of Research

Atonement, the theological issue dealing with the precise nature of Christ’s work, is a central doctrine to the Christian faith and yet it is one which historically has not always achieved consensus among theologians. This problem becomes more complicated when we entertain the possibility that different biblical authors may have had competing understandings even within the New Testament canon. This project explores what might happen if we were to interpret 1 John 2:2’s idea of Jesus as an atoning sacrifice for the sins of the whole world in light of Rudolf Bultmann’s basic thesis about the Gospel of John’s view …
