Mythos Und Symbol: Ernst Jünger In Der „Konservativen Revolution“, Hannah Froehle Apr 2013

Mythos Und Symbol: Ernst Jünger In Der „Konservativen Revolution“, Hannah Froehle

Undergraduate German Research Conference

In der verworrenen politischen Lage der Weimarer Republik breiteten sich viele bilderstürmerische politische und philosophische Ideen aus, womit das deutsche Volk sich mit dem vergangenen Horror des Ersten Weltkriegs und mit den derzeitigen ökonomischen, politischen, und seelischen Problemen auseinandersetzen sollte. Die sogenannte „Konservative Revolution“ dieser Zeit war einer diesen philosophischen Strömungen. Grob gesagt waren die Autoren und Denker der Konservativen Revolution von ihrem gemeinsamen Militarismus, Antiliberalismus, und Antidemokratismus geprägt, obwohl sie darunter unterschiedliche politische und philosophische Vorstellungen vertraten.

Einer der prominentesten Autoren der Bewegung war der ehemalige Frontsoldat Ernst Jünger. Die früheren Werke von Jünger, der oft fälschlicherweise als Nationalsozialist …

Prisoners Of War Camps In Rochester - Were They Humane?, Ryan Mckelvie Apr 2013

Prisoners Of War Camps In Rochester - Were They Humane?, Ryan Mckelvie

The Review: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Research

In lieu of an abstract, below is the first paragraph of the paper.

After the American involvement in the Second World War, labor issues became more prevalent because so many workers from Rochester either enlisted or were drafted into the ranks of the US Army. Also, many farmers realized they could make more money off of high wage paying industrial jobs in the cities. In order to provide a sufficient amount of produce and other harvested good, prisoners of war were used for the first time as laborers to help the war effort. It was a bitter irony, being a …


"Most Blessed Of Women": An Exegetical Study Of The Roles Of Women Under Patriarchy In Judges 5:24-31, Tamara Dixon Apr 2013

"Most Blessed Of Women": An Exegetical Study Of The Roles Of Women Under Patriarchy In Judges 5:24-31, Tamara Dixon

The Review: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Research

In lieu of an abstract, below is the first paragraph of the paper.

The Old Testament book of Judges is often cited for its violent and destructive depictions, since the textual episodes relate to the aggressive nature of war, the erosion of interpersonal relationships from deception, and the immorality of the Israelites. The integrity of Yahweh's chosen people steadily degenerates until the climatic conclusion of Judges wherein the Israelites act out belligerent aggression upon each other in tribal civil warfare. Despite the collective disregard for the covenant's provision of monotheistic faithfulness as established between the people and Yahweh, the deity …


Immortal Remembrance, Michelle Bopp Apr 2013

Immortal Remembrance, Michelle Bopp

The Review: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Research

In lieu of an abstract, below is the article's first paragraph.

Many monuments stand to remind us of horror, violence and people lost. The Vietnam Memorial and Auschwitz are stark reminders of the consequences of war. How do we feel when reading the 58,325 names on "the Wall?" Can we sense the horror (when) inside a gas chamber? Memorials exist to provoke a somber reaction, promoting peace. Joan Didion, the author of Salvador, compares how the Metropolitan Cathedral and Pablo Picasso's Guernica convey their anti-war sentiments.

A Cognitive Approach To Vision For A Mobile Robot, Paul Benjamin, Christopher Funk, Damian M. Lyons Apr 2013

A Cognitive Approach To Vision For A Mobile Robot, Paul Benjamin, Christopher Funk, Damian M. Lyons

Faculty Publications

We describe a cognitive vision system for a mobile robot. This system works in a manner similar to the human vision system, using saccadic, vergence and pursuit movements to extract information from visual input. At each fixation, the system builds a 3D model of a small region, combining information about distance, shape, texture and motion. These 3D models are embedded within an overall 3D model of the robot's environment. This approach turns the computer vision problem into a search problem, with the goal of constructing a physically realistic model of the entire environment. At each step, the vision system selects …

Protests, Patriotism, Prayer: Bethel College Students And The Vietnam Debate, Annie Berglund Apr 2013

Protests, Patriotism, Prayer: Bethel College Students And The Vietnam Debate, Annie Berglund

History Student Works

The 1960s and 1970s in American history conjure up a wide variety of dramatic visuals: Rock and Roll, hippies, civil rights, Kent State, assassinations, drugs, riots. Similarly, draft dodging, protests, tear gas, policeman, and imprisonments are obvious, explicit, and vocal responses to Vietnam that draw many Americans into discussion about the anti-war movement. This period of debate and activism is well researched and captivating. However, the tendency to look at the 1960s and 1970s as a conglomeration of movements and political groups can fail to appropriately acknowledge the complex responses of average individuals in the United States. Even within major …

Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Case Studies

(From Introduction)

Videogames have come a long way since PONG for Atari was introduced in 1972. The industry has advanced from simplistic 8-bit geometric shapes descending from players’ screens (Tetris) and a side-scrolling, overall-clad plumber saving a princess in a faraway land (Super Mario Bros.). Today, the global videogame industry is a $67 billion enterprise, consisting of hardware (gaming consoles like Nintendo and Playstation), software (the actual videogames themselves), and secondary markets (online games, mobile phones, and other devices). The major players in this enterprise are few—the “AAA” game developers. In the videogame industry, …

Cape Town Performance Poetry: The Activist’S Pen Is Mighty, Kelsey Rae Brattin Apr 2013

Cape Town Performance Poetry: The Activist’S Pen Is Mighty, Kelsey Rae Brattin

Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection

Beginning with a look back to historical Xhosa oral traditions and then examining the role of performance poetry in resistance during Apartheid, this paper explores the existence of contemporary Cape Town performance poetry in a setting that has been a home to poets for centuries. Specifically, this project is a look into the space, mental and physical, that exists within Cape Town’s current performance poetry scene for themes of resistance and activism. Through the observation of public poetry performances in local bookstores and coffeehouse, and through interviews with poets and audience members, contemporary attitudes of writers and community members toward …
