Marjorie Gullan: Speech Teacher, Lecturer, Public Reader, And Pioneer In Choral Speaking (Scotland, England)., Ronald Eugene Shields Jan 1983

Marjorie Gullan: Speech Teacher, Lecturer, Public Reader, And Pioneer In Choral Speaking (Scotland, England)., Ronald Eugene Shields

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Historians of oral interpretation and speech education acknowledge Marjorie Gullan as a pioneer figure. However, they limit their discussion to Gullan's activities as a pioneer in popularizing choral speaking and neglect her other professional involvements as a speech teacher, lecturer, and public reader. This study traces Gullan's career from the earliest years in Scotland to her death, and illustrates the interdependence between her experiences as a speech teacher and her experiments with choral speaking as an educational and artistic technique. Born in the late nineteenth century, Gullan witnessed the waning days of elocution, and throughout her lengthy career, which extended …

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The primary purpose of the study was to determine the effect of Dalcroze Eurhythmics on the melodic musical growth of first grade students.

Development Of Louisiana Public School Guidance Services, 1942-1972., Alice Hunter Chilton Jan 1982

Development Of Louisiana Public School Guidance Services, 1942-1972., Alice Hunter Chilton

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The purpose of this study was to determine how guidance services developed in the public schools of Louisiana between 1942 and 1972. In order to understand the events of these years, it was necessary to examine the period preceding them. In the beginning of the guidance movement, social workers pioneered in assisting youth with problems associated with industrialization. Louisiana was unique in that its guidance program started within the school system. An experimental program began in the Orleans Parish Schools in 1921. It was considered effective and continued. In the 1920s vocational guidance was offered for the first time at …


The Yongnam-Ro: An Historical Geography Of A Korean Royal Road. (Volumes I And Ii)., Young-Joon Choe Jan 1982

The Yongnam-Ro: An Historical Geography Of A Korean Royal Road. (Volumes I And Ii)., Young-Joon Choe

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The Yongnam-ro, the main communication artery between Seoul and Pusan, was the shortest and the most important route running through the central part of southern Korea. This road evolved as a military campaign route in ancient times and finally as an administrative communication artery in the Yi Dynasty. Although spanning some rugged areas in its course, the Yongnam-ro had some advantages: first, it avoided the troublesome communication system connected by river crossings because its path followed longitudinal valleys of the Han and Naktong rivers; second, it connected the waterways of the Han and Naktong; third, it formed the pivot belt …


The Anglo-Saxon And Norman "Eigenkirche" And The Ecclesiastical Policy Of William I., Albert Simeon Cote Jr Jan 1981

The Anglo-Saxon And Norman "Eigenkirche" And The Ecclesiastical Policy Of William I., Albert Simeon Cote Jr

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The eigenkirche or proprietary church was an important factor in the ecclesiastical policy of William I. In previous studies, the proprietary church was considered purely a local phenomenon. William's religious concerns in Normandy and England demonstrate the eigenkirche's role at the local, royal, and international levels. An examination of the legal sources is critical to understanding the proprietary church in Anglo-Saxon England, Normandy, and Norman England. The Anglo-Saxon charters provide important examples of the private church and monastery in the pre-Conquest period. In Normandy, the ducal charters, once inaccessible because of archival problems, are now available for analysis of the …
