A Rhetorical Study Of Winthrop Rockefeller's Political Speeches, 1964-1971 (Arkansas)., Merrill Anway Jones Jan 1984

A Rhetorical Study Of Winthrop Rockefeller's Political Speeches, 1964-1971 (Arkansas)., Merrill Anway Jones

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The purpose of this study was to analyze rhetorically the political speeches of Winthrop Rockefeller, 1964-1971. Criteria for the study were determined by the theories of Lloyd Bitzer, Ernest Bormann and Kenneth Burke, which as a whole, interrelated to give full understanding of Rockefeller's phenomenal political rise in Arkansas. Examined were the political conditions in Arkansas prior to Rockefeller's emergence as the Republican Party leader in 1964. Application of Bitzer's situational theory revealed that the controlling exigence, the lack of a two-party system, was the direct cause of other exigences such as poor racial conditions, poor educational standards, poor economic …

Stewardship Of Creation: Some Implications For Economic Theory And Policy., John Harlan Mcdonald Jan 1984

Stewardship Of Creation: Some Implications For Economic Theory And Policy., John Harlan Mcdonald

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Neoclassical economic theory defines an optimal or efficient allocation of natural resources as one which secures the maximum output of preferred goods and services, or as an allocation in which the resources are used in their highest valued uses. The theory is based on two important normative assumptions: the welfare of the community is an increasing function of the individual's welfare, and an individual is better off in a freely chosen position. These assumptions form a subjective theory of value which locates the source of intrinsic value in the individual's tastes and preferences; value or wealth is whatever satisfies the …

A Regression Model To Measure The Impact Of Actual And Proposed Class Scheduling Policies On Electricity Consumption: A Case Study At Louisiana State University., Enrique Mejorada Jan 1984

A Regression Model To Measure The Impact Of Actual And Proposed Class Scheduling Policies On Electricity Consumption: A Case Study At Louisiana State University., Enrique Mejorada

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Universities have adopted many programs to conserve electricity and counteract its high costs. Electricity can be conserved by adopting a class scheduling policy which schedules a reduced number of classes when the weather is more inclement. A regression model is postulated to measure the impact of the actual class scheduling policy on the 3-hourly electricity consumption at Louisiana State University. This model explicitly considers the effects of students' load, temperature, and humidity, and implicitly considers variables such as electricity prices and implemented electricity conservation programs through dummy variables. Also, two- and three-way interaction effects are considered in this model. Since …

Herman Frasch (German Immigrant Chemist, Standard Oil, Petroleum; Ohio, Louisiana)., William Ralph Sutton Jan 1984

Herman Frasch (German Immigrant Chemist, Standard Oil, Petroleum; Ohio, Louisiana)., William Ralph Sutton

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Herman Frasch (1851-1914) invented the hot-water process for mining sulphur that permitted the exploitation of the rich deposits beneath the coastal plain of the Gulf of Mexico. The Frasch process enabled the United States to become self-sufficient in the production of this important industrial mineral and the major supplier to the world. Frasch's new idea was to inject steam into the underground deposit to melt the sulphur and then pump the liquid to the surface. He patented the process in 1891 and first demonstrated its technical success at Sulphur, Louisiana in 1894. Initially plagued with problems due to the high …

George Vandenhoff, Nineteenth Century Elocutionist In America (Public Reader, Actor, "Art Of Elocution"; England; New York)., Bill Jaye Schooley

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Three generations of Vandenhoffs were among featured players in theatres of both America and England for over a century, 1808 through 1913. George Vandenhoff, the subject of this study, was the eldest son of the accomplished British tragedian, John Vandenhoff. Lauded in England, George accepted a theatrical booking in New York in 1842 and later became a resident of that city. Dissatisfied with changing trends in the theatre and perceiving a growing interest in public readings of literature, Vandenhoff ultimately turned his attention from the actor's stage to the reader's platform. One of the first to introduce Shakespearean readings, he …

Love And Rebellion: Louisiana Women Novelists, 1865-1919 (Wetmore)., Susan Millar Williams Jan 1984

Love And Rebellion: Louisiana Women Novelists, 1865-1919 (Wetmore)., Susan Millar Williams

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

This dissertation is a study of minor Louisiana women novelists from the end of the Civil War to the passage of women's suffrage. A large number of Louisiana women were spurred to write novels by the war and Reconstruction, motivated by both financial considerations and the need to explain their lives. They use conventional forms, like the plantation romance, but the stories they tell suggest that women were ambivalent about Southern traditions and the old order. In breaking down the social codes which both protected and repressed Louisiana women, the Civil War and the Reconstruction led Louisiana women novelists to …

The Critical Connection: A Computer-Assisted Rhetorical Criticism Of The Message Of Harry F. Chapin., Ronald Robert Capps Jan 1984

The Critical Connection: A Computer-Assisted Rhetorical Criticism Of The Message Of Harry F. Chapin., Ronald Robert Capps

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

In this study I examine the forms, contents, and functions of the rhetoric of singer-songwriter Harry Forster Chapin, in an attempt to more fully understand rhetorical theorist Kenneth Burke's assertion that his grandson was a uniquely powerful rhetorical figure who "could energize people, everyone, the world.". This study was conceived from the perspective of the "New Rhetoric," and therefore, it acknowledges that "identification" may serve as an "end" in itself. It is this willingness to accept "identification" as an "end" in itself that separates contemporary rhetorical theory from its classical counterpart. In my effort to remain faithful to Chapin's lyrics, …

Authority Vs. Power: Preference For Control Among Selected Church Structures., Raymond Leslie Houck Jan 1984

Authority Vs. Power: Preference For Control Among Selected Church Structures., Raymond Leslie Houck

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Preference for hierarchical control (PHC) was studied among Catholic priests and religious (ordained and lay) and Baptist ministers in Louisiana and Gulf Coast area (n = 240). Groups represented decreasing strength of hierarchical church structure based on criteria of Mackey (1972). Strength of PHC, as measured by Cochran's (1975) Hierarchical Control Scale, should be influenced by the subject's membership involvement in church structure and his age. The Job Description Index (Smith, et al., 1969) measured job satisfaction (JS) as it related to PHC in the descending order of church structures. Because perceptions differ, JS was analyzed again as a function …

The Design And Evaluation Of An Integrating Monitoring Device For Ozone Using 10,10'-Dimethyl-9,9'-Biacridylidene., Marion Rene Surgi

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

A unique film badge design in which a reagent 10,10'-dimethyl-9,9'-biacridylidene (DBA) is dissolved homogeneously in a gas-permeable, silicone-polycarbonate copolymer film, was evaluated. The ambient concentration of ozone can be determined from its reaction with DBA. The disappearance of DBA upon ozonolysis can be monitored at 4300 (ANGSTROM) without extraction or desorption from the polymer membrane. Unlike other reagents for ozone determination, DBA is specific for ozone. Interferences from nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide are less than 1%. Prior to this experimental work, a mathematical diffusion model was developed to predict the response of such a device to a given pollutant …

A History Of Louisiana, 1939-1945. (Volumes I And Ii)., Jerry Purvis Sanson Jan 1984

A History Of Louisiana, 1939-1945. (Volumes I And Ii)., Jerry Purvis Sanson

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

This dissertation is a study of Louisiana's political, social, and economic development during World War II. Louisiana in 1939 was a rural, agricultural, poorly-educated, racially segregated, one-party, southern state. By 1945, however, many aspects of life in Louisiana had changed. Louisiana's political development during the war years was marked by the temporary displacement of the Longite faction of the Democratic party by the reform faction of the party. Even though reformers Sam Jones and James H. Davis captured control of the executive branch of the state government, Longites remained strong in the legislature and in minor state offices. The Longite …

Studies In The Relationship Between Distinctive Features And Acoustic Cues (Phonetics, Phonology)., Thomas F. Walsh Jan 1984

Studies In The Relationship Between Distinctive Features And Acoustic Cues (Phonetics, Phonology)., Thomas F. Walsh

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The relationship between the Distinctive Feature (DF) (+OR-)Voice and its acoustic manifestation has generated a great deal of discussion in recent years. Although it is well known that the phonological voicing contrast is often not manifested in terms of actual glottal pulsation, the exact acoustic manifestation has been debated. The collection of papers presented herein considers perceptual evidence for the acoustic manifestation of (+OR-)Voice in English stops in utterance-final position, produced without release and with no glottal pulsation during closure. It is concluded that in such cases, the primary acoustic cue to (+OR-)Voice is the preceding vocalic transition. That is …

Agricultural Change Among The Alto Mayo Aguaruna, Eastern Peru: The Effects On Culture And Environment., Martha Adrienne Teresa Works

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The Aguaruna Indians of the Alto Mayo Valley of tropical eastern Peru are experiencing economic change as Spanish speaking colo- nists from the temperate highlands immigrate and begin intensive rice cultivation. The Aguaruna, subsisting until recently on hunting, gathering, and horticulture, are now being exposed to dramatically different ideas about land, agriculture, and technology. Economic change, as expressed by modification of agricultural patterns, reflects an area of close interaction between man and the environment. With the acceptance of rice cultivation among some Aguaruna in the Alto Mayo Valley a marked departure from traditional agricultural patterns has begun to emerge. Increased …
