Harrison County, Iowa: Aspects Of Life From 1920 To 1930, Gary D. Dixon May 1997

Harrison County, Iowa: Aspects Of Life From 1920 To 1930, Gary D. Dixon

Student Work

This is an examination of Harrison County, Iowa, during the decade from 1920 to 1930. Because farming was the major source of income, agricultural conditions are a major part of this story . So too are the changes which the 1920s brought to the towns of Harrison County. The thesis will also look at the social activities and political issues of the county’s citizens, and how these disparate elements of life interacted to form a more complex picture than one might at first think likely. The 1920s was a time of profound change in the nation, and Harrison County was …

The Impact And Pattern Of Gene And Genome Duplication In The History Of Increasing Organismal Complexity, Matthew Rand Ronshaugen Jan 1997

The Impact And Pattern Of Gene And Genome Duplication In The History Of Increasing Organismal Complexity, Matthew Rand Ronshaugen

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

The increase in phenotypic or morphological complexity in organisms may stem from a corresponding increase in the complexity of the underlying genetic architecture, driven by the process of gene duplication. Gene duplication is a mutational mechanism that can impact the genome through the gradual birth and death of individual genes or clusters of genes, and through infrequent episodic events of whole genome duplication. Functional and pleiotropic differences among genes may impact the probability of fixation of duplicated genes and the facility of gene families to record duplication events across deep history. Phylogenetic inference of the relationship among genes in multigene …


The Sound Of Utah: The Presence Of Geographical Elements In Music Written About The State Of Utah, Kamia Walton Holt Jan 1997

The Sound Of Utah: The Presence Of Geographical Elements In Music Written About The State Of Utah, Kamia Walton Holt

Theses and Dissertations

Music is a by-product of place and time. Musicians have opportunities to use the idea of place in their music. Thus, music has regionally distinctive characteristics which reflect human perceptions of the physical environment. Artists of the past and present focus on geographical themes, and paint a picture of ‘place’ in their music. This thesis focuses on the music of a geographical location: Utah. Musicians wrote of Utah in hymns of the past, and contemporary musicians continue to write music about Utah. This thesis answers the questions: Is music characterized by geography? How have the local musicians been influenced by …


The Prism Of Laughter: Antebellum Humorists In Regional Perspective., Henry O. Robertson Jr Jan 1997

The Prism Of Laughter: Antebellum Humorists In Regional Perspective., Henry O. Robertson Jr

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

This work revises earlier interpretations of antebellum American humorists and sets forth a new model for understanding their accomplishments. Rooted in historical thinking, this study integrated biography, publishing history, critical responses, and a penetrating analysis of the sketches of several major figures. The first third examined Seba Smith, Joseph C. Neal, and Augustus Baldwin Longstreet. A devotion to their communities in Maine, Philadelphia, and Georgia, respectively, and preference for writing warm, genial selections remained important shared influences while cultural differences between the societies in which each matured and wrote made their humor diverge significantly. In both content and expression their …


Children On The Mormon Trail, Jill Jacobsen Andros Jan 1997

Children On The Mormon Trail, Jill Jacobsen Andros

Theses and Dissertations

Using first person, reminiscent accounts, this thesis examines children's lives on the Mormon Trail. It attempts to shed further light on the story of the Mormon Trail by sharing the perspectives of pioneers who crossed the plains as children. This study focuses on such issues as the children's impressions of the trail, their experiences on it, their duties, their family life, and the influence of religion. This study highlights the symbiotic relationship between children and the trail: children affected trail life and at the same time were affected by their experiences on the trail. Children shouldered responsibilites that were essential …


A Voice From The Fire: The Authority Of Experience, Colleen C. Bernhard Dec 1996

A Voice From The Fire: The Authority Of Experience, Colleen C. Bernhard

Theses and Dissertations

Over all, this thesis was written to be a "ramble" of its own around and through three issues that are central to the writing of the personal essay-voice, authority, and experience-and central to the emergence of this author's own sense of "self."
Drawing upon years of voluminous journals, this collection of six personal essays demonstrates what the scholarly introduction proposes: that the personal essay is both a valid genre and a magnificent bridge from informal life-writing to genuine literary accomplishment. Drawing on Phillip Lopate's differentiation of "memoiristic" essays from the more classic autobiographical form, this collection includes three of each …
