Edith Wharton And A Modernist Reappraisal: Three Critical Essays, Sue Ellen Sears Jan 1986

Edith Wharton And A Modernist Reappraisal: Three Critical Essays, Sue Ellen Sears

Theses and Dissertations

These three essays focus on the way in which Edith Wharton's reputation as a novelist of manners has limited the full appraisal of her fiction which her skill as a writer deserves.The first essay reviews Wharton's life and development as a "social historian," pointing out stylistic conventions which synthesize her use of culture into an evolution of character development in The Age of Innocence. These conventions, entitled "arch" in this study, include Wharton's use of syntax and diction. Through an analysis of relative proportions of syntactical elements and peculiarities of diction, shifts in style are noted and linked directly to …

Depositional History And Diagenesis Of The Upper Mission Canyon And Lower Charles Formations (Mississippian), Billings County, North Dakota, Randall A. Stephens Jan 1986

Depositional History And Diagenesis Of The Upper Mission Canyon And Lower Charles Formations (Mississippian), Billings County, North Dakota, Randall A. Stephens

Theses and Dissertations

The upper Mission Canyon and lower Charles Formations of the Madison Group (Mississippian) in central Billings County, North Dakota respectively consist of interbedded limestones and dolostones, and anhydrite. Study of these rocks was limited to Big Stick and T.R. Fields, located on the Billings Anticline, central Williston Basin.

Detailed examinations of cores from a 166 ft (51 m) section within the upper Mission Canyon and lower Charles Formations resulted in the identification of seven lithotypes: echinoderm wackestone-packstone, dolomudstone, dolomitic echinoderm wackestone, grainstone, skeletalpeloidal carbonate, laminated carbonate, and anhydrite. The stratigraphic distribution of lithotypes is consistent throughout the study area.

Removal Of Sodium From Nerco Subbituminous Coal By Ion Exchange In A Continuous Countercurrent Unit Using An Aqueous Sulfuric Acid Medium, Dennis B. Thorfinnson Dec 1985

Removal Of Sodium From Nerco Subbituminous Coal By Ion Exchange In A Continuous Countercurrent Unit Using An Aqueous Sulfuric Acid Medium, Dennis B. Thorfinnson

Theses and Dissertations

The removal of sodium and other ions (potassium, magnesium, calcium, and aluminum) from a Montana subbituminous coal by ion exchange, with the hydrogen ion from aqueous sulfuric acid, in a continuous countercurrent unit was investigated as a function of initial sulfuric acid concentration, coal particle size, liquid to solid mass ratio, and coal residence time.

The results from this investigation indicate that the ion exchange process in the continuous countercurrent unit is controlled by film diffusion. Experimental results also indicate that the sodium removal is directly proportional to the initial sulfuric acid concentration and coal residence time, inversely proportional to …


The Sibling Experience: A Comparative Study Of Relationship And Birth Order Factors In Predicting Personality Characteristics, Elizabeth Bergmann-Harms Dec 1985

The Sibling Experience: A Comparative Study Of Relationship And Birth Order Factors In Predicting Personality Characteristics, Elizabeth Bergmann-Harms

Theses and Dissertations

The two purposes of this research were: (1) to develop an instrument, the Sibling Relationship Questionnaire (SRQ) to measure retrospectively childhood feelings towards siblings and (2) to assess the power of the SRQ in statistical prediction of personality characteristics, as measured by the California Psychological Inventory (CPI). The predictive power of the SRQ was compared by multivariate analyses to that of birth order variables. The principal personality features investigated were need for achievement, need for affiliation, conformity, sociability, and sex-role orientation.

In Study 1 a pool of items regarding childhood sibling relationships was submitted to a sample of 255 undergraduate …
