Female Figure Study, Jason F. Rockhold

Masters Theses

This graduate thesis deals with my feelings and interpretation of the nude female figure in my drawings, paintings, and sculpture pieces; as well as the representations of other artists. The unique aspect about this special object is the broad range of interest it has created through the years. Since the female figure has such great versatility it can be viewed from a realistic portrayal as well as from a complete abstraction, and still be creatively effective.

My intentions in this paper are to discuss other artists and my own work in relation to the female figure. The main portion of …

The Photograph And Photo-Realism In Painting, Nancy G. Odom

Masters Theses

This thesis is an attempt to substantiate the legitimacy of the photograph as a source and aid to painters.

Chapter 1. reviews various artists and major art movements of the Nineteenth and Twentieth centuries influenced by the photograph. Since the invention of photography in 1839, artists such as Manet, Delacroix, Corot, Degas, Picasso, and Dali have used photographs as a source of inspiration and help in achieving the qualities they desired in their paintings. Most major art movements since the middle 1800's were influenced in some way by the various developments of the camera and photography.

Photo-Realism, a style of …

The paper incorporates a brief survey of twenty-five major artists who have worked from photographs with the benefits they obtained from this approach. The artists surveyed were from the seventeenth through the twentieth century.

The second section of the …

An Exploration Of Intaglio Processes Influenced By The Woodblock Style Of Utamaro, Lenore Branchaw

Masters Theses

An exploration of the intaglio processes as influenced by the woodblock style of Kitagawa Utamaro is examined in this paper.

A brief introductory section is devoted to the history of European and Japanese printmaking. The Japanese, for the most part, used woodblock prints while the European artists more frequently made intaglio prints. The European intaglio prints were the work of one man while the more complicated woodblock prints were developed by the collective efforts of Japanese craftsmen.

The intaglio technique allows the artist to work with one plate, but many blocks of wood may be needed for effective linear design …

The Public School Superintendent In The Administration Of Schools, Chuka J. Ezekigbo

Masters Theses

The title of this thesis which is, "The Public School Superintendent in the Administration of Schools," deals with the roles of the superintendent in the selection and evaluation of school personnel, administration of schools, budgeting, physical plant and maintenance. It also deals with the problems which a superintendent encounters in the running of schools.

This thesis makes it clear that the superintendent's power to manage is derived from the school board, so his power in the exercise of duties is the perogative of the school board. As a chief executive of the school administration, he has some aides which are …

The counties included in this study were Coles and Clark, located in the east-central portion of the state, near the Indiana stateline. Of the areas included in this study, two are in Clark county, Rocky Branch and Rocky Hollow, and one in Coles county, Rock's Park.

Homosexuality In Art, Julian P. Wade-Salisbury

Masters Theses

Homosexuality in art is nothing new. It has existed for centuries. This paper traces, via relative examples, homosexual themes in art from the ancient Greek vases to the twentieth century. The paper is divided into four sections: Greek Homosexuality, Christian Traditions, 19th and 20th Century Art, and My Work and that of other Artists. Examples from these chapters have been taken and are discussed, with special reference to the titles.

In chapter one there is an emphasis on homosexual imagery found on ancient Greek pots, and the almost relaxed way in which the Greeks portrayed and lived with homosexuality. They …

The Need For A Curriculum Director In A School District Of 2500 Students, Pamela A. Feutz

Masters Theses

Sound decisions are not made quickly, but require in-depth study by those persons involved in the decision. Decisions made by a curriculum director are furturistic, with the impact not being felt until tomorrow, or even ten or twenty years from the time the decision is made. Making realistic and sound decisions today for the future is one of the most difficult dilemmas facing the educational leaders. Some of the more critical factors concern the economic situation of society, changes in technology that influence the labor market needs, priorities of a given community, and other current events.

Pyridine Hydrogen Iodide As An Ether Cleaving Agent In Coal Chemistry, Agnes Mei-Ying Chen

Masters Theses

Reactions of several phenyl ethers and an ester with pyridine hydrogen iodide were examined under various conditions as model studies for the recently reported molecular weight reduction of a fraction of Illinois No. 6 coal by hydrogen iodide in pyridine at 50°.

No ether or ester cleavage was observed at 60-80° in pyridine, acetonitrile, ethanol or the absence of solvent. Sealed tube reactions at 210° resulted in cleavage to phenol plus various hydrocarbon and alkyl halide products. Pyridine and benzyl phenyl ether at 210° produced no cleavage in the absence of hydrogen iodide.

Syntheses of crystalline pyridine hydrogen iodide and …

Prediction Of Junior Required English Grades Using Expectancy Tables At Central High School, Clifton, Illinois, Richard Lee Longfellow

Masters Theses

Problem:

At Central High School in Clifton, Illinois, students are required to take one of three Junior English classes in order to graduate. These classes are: American Fiction, American Literature Survey, and Modern American Literature. Many times, students would ask their counselor "What are my chances of passing the three different Required Junior English classes?". The counselors would only be able to give a personal opinion that was based on Sophomore English grades and not a substantiated answer.

The problem had two parts. The first part was to determine if a relationship existed between Sophomore English grades and Junior Required …
