Germans In Brazil: A Comparative History Of Cultural Conflict During World War I, Frederick C. Luebke Jan 1987

Germans In Brazil: A Comparative History Of Cultural Conflict During World War I, Frederick C. Luebke

Department of History: Faculty Publications

The first three chapters establish the historical context for understanding what happened to the Germans in Brazil during the period of the war in Europe and its immediate aftermath, 1914 to 1920. The large pattern of German settlement in Brazil, offered in Chapter I, is followed by a study of German ethnic institutions--churches, schools, societies--and the German-language press to reveal literacy levels, religious and linguistic characteristics, and the measure of assimilation (or lack thereof) into Brazilian society. Ethnic group relations, perceptions, and images, along with attendant concerns and fears, are analyzed next to show how and why the Brazilian majority …

Archaeology Of The Brasada: A Cultural Resources Assessment Of The Chevron Resources Company Properties In Northeastern Duval County, Texas, A. Joachim Mcgraw, Beverly J. Van Note, Courtenay J. Jones

Index of Texas Archaeology: Open Access Gray Literature from the Lone Star State

Within the past decade, cultural resource management has become an increasingly significant aspect of archaeological investigations in southern Texas. Twenty-five new sites were identified, recorded, and assessed as the result of a 4000-acre cultural resources survey in northeastern Duval County, southern Texas, by the Center for Archaeological Research, The University of Texas at San Antonio, from October to December 1981. The investigations were carried out under the requirements and guidelines of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended, the Vernon Texas Civil Statute 4590f, as amended, and the Guidelines for Archeological Investigations of Mining Areas in Texas (Texas …

Proof And Intuition, Michael Detlefsen Jan 1987

Proof And Intuition, Michael Detlefsen

ACMS Journal 2004

This paper aims to give a clear exposition of two critiques of logicism. The intuitionist, Brouwer, is best known for rejecting the law of the excluded middle (his "special critique.") The paper argues that Brouwer's "general critique" is deeper and more extensive than this. That is, Brouwer is arguing that mathematical knowledge requires a kind of direct mathematical experience, analogous to sensory experience and this cannot be attained simply by linguistic operations independently of experience. It also discusses Poincare's critiques - that there is a huge difference between genuine mathematical insight and an ability to logically manipulate mathematical truths and …

White Chief: The Story Of Edward H. Davis, Charles Mitchell Hudgins

Theses

With Mother Earth for a couch, To sleep under the fragrant conifers; To breath the purity of the ranges; To watch the procession of the constellations; To listen to the music of the wind harps of the sierras; To leave care, worry, responsibilities behind us; To be in harmony with nature at all times; To live simply, to think severely, the love deeply, to be content; And to learn patience and tolerance from the mighty mountains; That me thinks is to be happy. Edward H. Davis Mesa Grande August 26, 1933

Godfrey Goodman And The Language Of Adam, Thomas S. Willard Jan 1987

Godfrey Goodman And The Language Of Adam, Thomas S. Willard

Quidditas

Reformers in seventeenth-century England often spoke of a language of nature, sometimes referred to as the language of Adam. By this, they did not refer to what we would call a natural language, like English or French, but to a univocal language where words and things corresponded perfectly. They insisted that it need not be a dream; it could be made a reality if students would only turn form syllogisms to nature itself. With this insistence, Francis Bacon and others created the false impression that language theory in their time was essentially Adamic, committed to the view that all languages …


The Syllables Of Time: An Augustinian Context For Macbeth 5.5, John S. Tanner Jan 1987

The Syllables Of Time: An Augustinian Context For Macbeth 5.5, John S. Tanner

Quidditas

Among the most familiar lines in all Shakespeare are these Macbeth utters upon hearing the Lady Macbeth's death:

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow

Creeps in this petty pace from day to day

To the last syllable of recorded time,

And all our yesterdays have lighted fools

The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!

Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player

That struts and frets his hour upon the stage

And then is heard no more. It is a tale

Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,

Signifying nothing.

(5.5.19-28)

So familiar, indeed, is this speech …


Redemption Typology In John Donne's "Batter My Heart", Raymond-Jean Frontain Jan 1987

Redemption Typology In John Donne's "Batter My Heart", Raymond-Jean Frontain

Quidditas

In the seventeenth century, notes Barbara K. Lewalski, typological symbolism came to be considered a way for the individual to explore one's own spiritual state and to discover "the workings of Divine Providence in one's own life."

[T]he shift in emphasis in reformation theology from quid agas to God's activity in us made it possible to assimilate our lives to the typological design, recognizing the biblical stories and events, salvation history, not merely as exemplary too us but as actually recapitulated in our lives. These various impulses led to a new, primary focus upon the individual Christian, whose life is …


Book Review: Modern Swiss Literature, Ernest Menolfi Jan 1987

Book Review: Modern Swiss Literature, Ernest Menolfi

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

This collection of papers given at a London symposium in March 1984 is in several respects a supplementary companion to H. M. Waidson's Anthology of Modern Swiss Literature (1984). They have the same cover picture - showing the distribution of the four national languages in Switzerland - and together they convey a rather comprehensive idea of what current Swiss literature is. Whereas Waidson's display of the literary production of the last decades is to some extent a neutral view from a distance, this collection of essays adds some more Swiss points of view, mentions further authors, and is by nature …
