Plutarch's Philosophy Of Religion, Upton Heath Tarbert Iii

Bachelors’ Theses

The epoch just prior to the birth of Christ seems, in a sense, to be neglected In this age, which seems to be a turning point in history, we do not find a religious crisis, a philosophical drift or a moral demand so emphatic as to be capable of separate treatment.

The Soul In Modern Thought, Joseph Talsky

Bachelors’ Theses

Many strange things happen in this world to add their particular bit to the general bafflement of man. Perhaps the strangest of all is the paradox of man's belief. He knows one thing in that heart of his and yet to all external appearances believes another. It is his prerogative to believe what he will but it is distressing that there is such great diversity of opinion concerning the very thing that is the ultimate principle and source of his ability to believe. Experience tells him that he has the enviable functions of thinking, feeling and willing but his experience …

While numerous editions of the poems of Lord. Byron, biographies of him, and his letters and journals are available, there has been little mention made of that portion of his poetry known as ’The Oriental Tales.’ It seems rather strange that this has been neglected, coming as it did at one of the critical periods of his life, and being, in itself, a series of very fine narratives.

Spermatogenesis Of The Albino Rat (Nus Norvegicus Albus), Norman A. Frankenstein

This thesis deals with the inquiry opened by the fundamental discovery that the gamete nuclei, and hence, the two parents from which they are respectively derived, con­ tribute each a haploid or single group of chromosomes to the fertilized egg. Each act of fertilization doubles the gametic number of chromosomes; yet the number of characteristic of the species remains constant from generation to generation. Somewhere in the life cycle, accordingly, the diploid or somatic number must be reduced by one-half to the haploid or gametic number. The first explanation was that reduction took place by some process of degeneration or …
