American Widowers With School-Age Children : An Exploratory Study Of Role Change And Role Conflict, Douglas Edward O'Neill
Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Global Coherence And The Teaching Of Composition., Frank A. Davis 1953-
Global Coherence And The Teaching Of Composition., Frank A. Davis 1953-
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Within the discipline of rhetoric and composition, the notion of coherence possesses the status of sine qua non, yet this notion has been treated unevenly or been taken for granted, much as the process of composing itself was taken for granted for the better part of this century. This practice has occurred for the following reasons: coherence is the "unmarked" condition of speech, and by transfer, also the "unmarked" condition of writing; the surface language of a composition has traditionally been the focus for solving any problems of coherence; and, collateral disciplines have not been sufficiently drawn upon in understanding …

The Son Of Man In Recent Discussion, Patrick E. Spencer
The Son Of Man In Recent Discussion, Patrick E. Spencer
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Though various summaries of the Son of Man debate have been attempted in the past thirty years, a disparity of views remain. In particular, recent summaries fail to adumbrate specific areas of consensus and disagreement and provide possible directions for future discussion. Most scholars concur, nonetheless, that the current debate hinges on at least two matters: the use and interpretation of the philological evidence, and the existence or nonexistence of a pre-Christian, Jewish, messianic concept. Others would add a third hinge, arguing that the validation and use of exegetical criteria are connected intricately to recent discussion.
