Mythcon 14 - Mythic Structures In Tolkien, Lewis, And Williams, The Mythopoeic Society

Mythcon Programs

Welcome to the Mythopoeic Society's 14th annual Conference. This year we have more people attending from greater distances than any previous year, many of which have come to give papers. This will make for an even greater exchange of ideas and variety of perspectives. Whether you are from near or far, I hope you will take time to become better acquainted with the others present. The annual conferences are similar to a family reunion for many, who only see many of their mythopoeic friends this one time a year. I hope for those who are here for the first time …


Effect Of Title Iv-B Funding In St. Charles County Public Libraries, 1976-1982, Lucinda Menkhus Aug 1983

Effect Of Title Iv-B Funding In St. Charles County Public Libraries, 1976-1982, Lucinda Menkhus

Theses

In 1974 Congress consolidated several existing educational programs into the Elementary and Secondary Education Act Title IV. Part B of that bill was designed to provide instructional materials for schools. A majority of Title IV-B money nationwide was used to purchase library books, audiovisual hardware, and audiovisual software.

This study was designed to examine the possible benefits Title IV-B funding had on St. Charles j County school libraries. Between 1976 and 1982, 15 school libraries were able to meet Missouri State standards in the size of the collection category. This study was needed to show that Title IV-B played an …

General Karl N. Haushofer And Geopolitik, David P. Benorden Jul 1983

General Karl N. Haushofer And Geopolitik, David P. Benorden

Department of Geography: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

The purpose of this research is to trace the mainstream of German and related geopolitical philosophy and the various aspects that influenced the philosophy from 1800 to 1945. Two themes evolved: Political Geography and Nationalism. Along with economic considerations, these themes were fused into Geopolitik by Karl Haushofer and his followers in Germany following the end of World War I.

The goal of this work is to trace Geopolitik to discover the significance of its implications, what was behind it, and what were its real objectives. Geopolitik is a German-developed "science'' based on doctrines and practices with its origins in …


Don Leon, Byron, And Homosexual Law Reform, Louis Crompton Jul 1983

Don Leon, Byron, And Homosexual Law Reform, Louis Crompton

Department of English: Faculty Publications

The origin of the anonymous poem entitled Don Leon, written in the 1830s but known to us only in an edition of 1866, is one of the mysteries of English literary history. The title page describes the work as "A Poem by Lord Byron, Author of Childe Harold, Don Juan, &c., &c. and Forming Part of the Private Journal of His Lordship, Supposed to Have Been Entirely Destroyed by Thos. Moore," but it is less and more than this. Byron had died in 1824 and his memoirs were burned shortly after by a committee of friends and other interested …

The Japanese/American Interface: A Crosscultural Study On The Approach To Discourse, Hitomi Tamura May 1983

The Japanese/American Interface: A Crosscultural Study On The Approach To Discourse, Hitomi Tamura

Dissertations and Theses

This study attempted to explore one aspect of the communicative styles of Japanese and Americans: their approach to discourse. In a literature review, four distinctive characteristics were surveyed: linear/nonlinear presentation, inductive/ deductive reasoning, explicit/implicit communication, and analytical/emotional statements. The American style of argument was characterized by:

1) a linear presentation as evidenced by its preference for a sequential paragraph development, its reliance on logic, and its direct introduction of the subject.

2) either inductive or deductive reasoning.

3) explicit communication as shown by its emphasis on the use of concrete language, definite qualifiers, clearly stated conclusions and a wider perspective. …

Some Measures Of Ulysses, June Sinclair May 1983

Some Measures Of Ulysses, June Sinclair

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Contemporary literary theorists, very much aware of themselves as constituting a break in, and a refutation of, an entire classical metaphysics, are trying to prove that James Joyce, the foremost prose writer of the twentieth century, writing when that classical view was falling from grace and the modern perspective was forcing itself upon the intellectual world, is, in fact, in his work--all works considered as one work-undermining the very tradition which critics consider his foundation. Consequently, the way in which Ulysses and Finnegans Wake are read and valued will be linked to an entire theory of literature. The body of …


Henry Alexander Wise, Minister To Brazil, 1844-1847, Dennis Rodgers Custis May 1983

Henry Alexander Wise, Minister To Brazil, 1844-1847, Dennis Rodgers Custis

Master's Theses

Henry Wise played an important role in local, state, and national affairs for forty years. He is best remembered as the Governor of Virginia who was responsible for the hanging of John Brown; however, he distinguished himself as a congressman, general, and foreign minister. I have chosen to examine and emphasize Wise's career as Minister to Brazil, 1844-1847. The first chapter of the thesis, however, will provide a biographical sketch of Henry A. Wise.

Wise was born and reared in my native county, Accomack. Although a man of great achievements, he is not well known in the county today. I …
