Hawthorne's Multiple Choice In Symbolism, Helen R. Haight

English Language and Literature ETDs

Among Hawthorne critics, only Matthiessen, Winters, and Higginson have made comment on the multiple choice technique employed by Hawthorne in his presentation of the symbol. Matthissen recognizes its potentialities; Winters condemns it unmercifully; and T.W. Higginson has written an article in which he suggested that the device "was perhaps borrowed by Austin's Peter Rug." The multiple choice technique, or, as Winters terms it, the formula of alternative possibilities, consists of showing not only one correspondence between the symbol and the thing it symbolizes but several, and giving the reader a choice of interpretations. Since these three notable critics have …

The Diaries Of Dr. Alfred Mercier: 1879-1893, Gloria Nobles Robertson

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Dr. Alfred Mercier stands prominent as the most prolific writer of the French language that Louisiana has produced. His was the last generation of Creoles, educated in France, who presented a direct influence of French culture upon Louisiana. His life spanned the years when the Creole was supreme, when American economic and eventual cultural control of New Orleans became evident, the years of the war and reconstruction, and the years which saw the disappearance of French as the active language in the life of the city. Dr. Mercier's constant aim of retaining a position of active importance for the Creole, …

A Logical Development Of The Real Number System, Carolyn M. Kelley

Master's Theses

Man and a few of the lower animals possess what may be called Number Sense. This is the power to recognize a change in number in a small collection without actually counting the collection.

The cardinal number is based on this principle of correspondence. We now no longer look for model collections; we set one collection into one-to-one correspondence with the natural numbers; in other words, we count it.

A Device For Determining The Electrical Characteristics Of Common Industrial Electronic Tubes, Addison Dabney Campbell

Master's Theses

Many tube checkers designed for radio receiving tubes have been developed . Most of the devices for test­ ing these tubes do little more than check the emission of the cathode. This is usually accomplished by applying alternating voltage to the plate of the tube undergoing the test and reading the direct-current component of the plate current . In this case, the control grid bias volt­ age is usually set at a fixed value although sometimes facilities for varying the bias are provided. If the tube is of the multi-grid type, all the grids except the control grid are connected …

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The purchase and continued operation of the Mike Horse mine in the Heddleston district, by the American Smelting and Re­fining Company, gives the Blackfoot Valley a renewed promise of a prosperous future in its role as a mining district. In the past, large amounts of placer gold were recovered from the gulches of the area, however, because of the transporta­tion facilities, only the upper portions of a few lodes were exploited by the early miners.

Modern Women Poets Of Brazil, Marie Pope Wallis

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

This study was written to introduce the poetry of Brazil's leading women poets to the English-speaking world.

The poetry of Brazilian women, in particular, is practically unknown to the Brazilian as well as to the English-speaking public.

There were four criteria for the selection of these particular five living women poets. They were chosen on the basis of volume of published works. Several poetesses of promise had to be omitted because their publications were …

Rugose Corals Of The Madison Group, William R. Paine

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

One of the best types of index fossils, and one which occurs most plentifully in the Madison group of formations in Montana, and yet, one which has been little studied, is the group of rugose, or cup, corals. Perhaps this group of fossils has not been studied in detail because their distinguishing characteristics are mainly internal, and labo­ratory preparation in the form of thin section or polished surfaces is necessary to bring out these characteristics.
