A Rhetorical Criticism Of The Defense In The People V. Sirhan Bishara Sirhan, Suzanne Kiesby

Flannery O'Connor And The Development Of The Grotesque In American Literature, Joan Rae Griffin Jan 1970

Flannery O'Connor And The Development Of The Grotesque In American Literature, Joan Rae Griffin

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

When man's view of himself as a being in his universe changes with the tide of events, literary conventions change as well. There is very little in contemporary life that would contradict the assumption that man's view of himself and of his world is no longer governed by the assurance of reason or the confidence of prediction. When certainty of man's place in the universe was commonly accepted, for instance in the eighteenth-century, this assurance was reflected in a literature which was essentially rational and ordered. In the last two centuries, drastic upheavals in the course of human events have …

The Effect Of Group Counseling On The Self Concept, Richard Noel Manley Jan 1970

The Effect Of Group Counseling On The Self Concept, Richard Noel Manley

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this research is to provide some basic understanding of the value of group counseling as it affects the self concept of individual participants. In many theoretical constructs of humanistic psychology there are numerous references emphasizing that the most important goal for group counseling is individual members’ attainment of a better understanding of themselves. A corollary to this assumption is that by understanding themselves, group members will be able to deal with their own frustrations and conflicts in a more meaningful way. The theoretical construct produced by this philosophical concept of self has been extensive, but the evaluation …

Effects Of Off-Season Weight Training Programs On Development Of Strength And Explosive Power Of Football Players, Anthony Bartley Mitchell

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Training to improve athletic performance is as old as the history of man. The ancient Persians began training their boys at the age of six, toughening them psychologically as well as physically by arduous activity under difficult and uncomfortable conditions. The ancient Greeks were fond of the training technique of running in sand with weights around the wrists and ankles. Some of these training techniques were remarkably scientific while others were based on tradition, ritual, or myth. From this colorful past have evolved our present day training programs which are based upon research results and tradition. With our present day …
