The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

in this issue. . .

Egalitarianism begets totalitarianism and antisemitism. That is the provocative thesis of RONALD LARSON. Professor of Social Science at Wytheville Community College in Virginia and playwright, Larson has studied and written about modem narcissism in a number of different forums.

BETTY R. McGRAW and RODNEY O. FOX link literature and science to explore the modem view of life's basic components as lacking the certainty and unity so apparent to earlier generations of philosophers, scientists, and writers, and they end with a mention of new topics for consideration. McGraw is Associate Professor of French and Fox is …

Many Moons By James Thurber, Gareth B. Matthews, Lenore Carlisle Reilly, Shari Tishman

Wise Owl: Talking and Thinking about Children’s Literature

James Thurber's story, Many Moons, invites us to view and think about the moon in a fresh way, both as it is in itself and as it may appear to people. In doing so we may increase our powers of observation as well as our capacity to enter imaginatively into the lives of others. We may also learn to think more clearly about appearance and reality, and how the two are related.

"Cookies" From Frog And Toad Together By Arnold Lobel, Gareth B. Matthews

Wise Owl: Talking and Thinking about Children’s Literature

Socrates and Plato thought that we can’t really want what we know is bad for us, or do what we know we shouldn’t be doing. Euripides and Saint Augustine thought it was obvious that we often do both things. This topic in philosophy is still being argued today, and it is the central topic of Arnold Lobel’s story “Cookies,” from his collection Frog and Toad Together. Do we really eat cookies against our will? Can we do something without really wanting to do it?

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 …

The Legal Ethics Of Radical Individualism, Thomas L. Shaffer

Journal Articles

Most of what American lawyers and law professors call legal ethics is not ethics. Legal ethics has come to be rules that appeal to sanction, and not the lawyer’s conscience. This Article analyzes the ethical quandary arising from modern ethics, and presents an assessment of the ethics of radical individualism in terms of the religious tradition’s influence on legal ethics.

Rorschach Erlebnistypus And Problem-Solving Styles In Children, Daniel R. Orme

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This study was designed to determine whether children who, on the basis of their Rorschach Erlebnistypus score, were identified as being introversive or extratensive differed with respect to their approaches to certain novel problem-solving tasks. It was thought that the extratensives would characteristically manipulate the task materials more and make more mistakes than would the introversives, owing to the notion that the introversives internalize more of their manipulations and attempted solutions. Sixty-nine sixth and seventh graders at a university-run laboratory school were administered the Rorschach. From that number fifteen introversive and fifteen extratensive children were identified who were also given …
