A History Of The Corporate Wife, 1900-1990, Julie Marie Still Jan 1994

A History Of The Corporate Wife, 1900-1990, Julie Marie Still

Master's Theses

There is no published literature concerning the history of the role of the corporate wife. In fact, what literature there is on the subject ignores the development of the role. The reasons for this may lie in the way knowledge is dealt with in the three disciplines which might be expected to be concerned with the subject: business, history and sociology.

Since women, especially those who do not work outside the home , are often neglected in histories and other research, and since the "work" of the corporate wife is primarily to enhance someone else and not draw attention to …


My Verie Good Lorde : The Influence Of Robert Dudley, Earl Of Leicester, Jonathan Perry Weston Jan 1994

My Verie Good Lorde : The Influence Of Robert Dudley, Earl Of Leicester, Jonathan Perry Weston

Master's Theses

The position of Robert Dudley as one of the most influential courtiers and statesmen during the reign of Elizabeth I originated with the affection that queen held for him. For this reason, historians have often discounted his role in Elizabethan politics and patronage. His contemporaries, however, recognized his unique status and frequently wrote him, requesting his assistance to obtain ecclesiastical and secular offices, assistance in purchasing land, and other favors. He responded successfully to many requests, and his influence with Elizabeth made him one of the most powerful nobles in England. This thesis explores the many requests addressed to Robert …


Suvla Bay : The Golden Opportunity Let Slip, Michael John Mortlock Jan 1994

Suvla Bay : The Golden Opportunity Let Slip, Michael John Mortlock

Master's Theses

This thesis analyzes the reasons for the failure of the Suvla Bay landings of August 1915 during the Gallipoli Campaign of the Great War. These included an inefficient chain of command, and a lack of initiative amongst subordinate generals that allowed the waste of precious time. Over-cautiousness hampered the operations that followed the landings. This characterized the 9th Army Corps from its aging commander, General Stopford, down through to many of its brigadiers, and the innate gentility of General Hamilton, Commander-in-Chief of the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force, made it difficult for him to assert himself. The chance was lost forever because …

Becoming A Dove: Senator Claiborne Pell's Opposition To The Vietnam War, Kevin C. Klyberg

Master's Theses

This study examines the opposition of Senator Claiborne de Borda Pell to the Vietnam War and his role as a member of the United States Senate’s anti-war movement. Pell’s speeches, Senate statements, and correspondence reveal his criticism of the Vietnam policies of Presidents Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon and his attempts to alter them. Also, this study traces the influences which shaped Pell’s decisions, including his own experience in the United States Foreign Service, his theory about the forming of foreign policy, the opinions of his Rhode Island constituents, and his relationship with other Senate "Doves" who opposed the war.

The actual model was then compared to the prescribed model of selection formulated as a result of information encountered …
