Influences On The Instrumental Music Curriculum In Ontario; 1945 - 1987, David B. Cunningham

Digitized Theses

Recent socio—historical studies of school subject development have revealed patterns that become apparent as subjects are introduced and then gradually find a place in the curriculum. Layton and Goodson in particular have shown that some subjects, when they are first introduced, tend to be utilitarian and pedagogic in nature, but as time passes they become increasingly academic in nature. This transformation is seen to be a function of several forces that define the nature of school knowledge, including universities, teacher—training institutions, key players and professional subject associations. This thesis examines the implications of these theories, both as frameworks for the …

Rethinking The Farm Revolt Of The 1930s, William C. Pratt

Great Plains Quarterly (through 2013)

T he northern Plains witnessed the last great farm revolt in its history during the 1930s, when a flood of protest spilled across the region, fed by the springs of hard times and earlier insurgencies. The countryside, for one last moment, forced itself upon the rest of the country and demanded attention for its plight. After a period of high visibility, these efforts receded in the wake of New Deal programs that seemingly undercut the rural revolt. Many of the protesters arrived at an accommodation with the new regime, accepting "half-aloaf now" in terms of wheat allotment checks and refinanced …

A History Of The Men's Intramural Program At Brigham Young University, David A. Brown

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to compile and present an organized and complete history of the Men's Intramural Program at Brigham Young University.

The Brigham Young University Intramural Program had its beginning early in Brigham Young Academy history.

Prior to 1954 the intramural program was part of the Physical Education Department and the Chairman of that department gave leadership to the intramural program by assigning part-time directors and student managers to organize sporting events. Since 1954 a full-time director has been employed as Intramural Director. The …

Musical Reverberations: Echoes Of Friedrich Schlegel And Heinrich Heine In Nietzsche's Dionysian Aesthetics., Linda Fallon Duncan

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Not only did Friedrich Nietzsche acknowledge his stylistic affinity for Heinrich Heine, but both writers--despite their overt criticism of certain aspects of German Romanticism--manifest significant parallels in style with the aesthetic formulations of the Romantic theorist Friedrich Schlegel for a new direction in contemporary literature. Friedrich Schlegel's Fragment 116 of the Athenaum, for example, designates this new poetic direction as "progressive universal poetry," and characterizes it as a poetic form capable of embracing the fluctuating multiplicity of the surrounding world as well as reflecting the developing ideas and individual personality of the poet-creator. The paradoxical result is a poetry that …

Protection And Reward: The Significance Of Ancient Midrashic Expositions On Genesis 15:1-6, Aecio E. Cairus

Dissertations

Genesis 15:1-6, because of its content, provides singular opportunities for the study of ancient midrashic documents. This kind of study is being increasingly performed, and has interest from a theological, historical and--especially--exegetical viewpoint.

Chapter 1 attentively analyzes the treatment of the entire unit in midrashic documents (Jubilees, Genesis Apocryphon, Philo, Josephus, the Targumim, and Genesis Rabbah), identifies their individual theological and exegetical concerns, and shows their progression over time. The most ancient ones are found to emphasize the covenantal aspects of the passage, while later documents stress the eschatological reward of Abraham as a fruit of his good works.

On Being A Truant: A Phenomenological Study Of Students In A Comprehensive High School, Diane Berger Mcclure Edd

Dissertations

This dissertation was a phenomenological study of eight students in a comprehensive high school who exhibited symptoms of truancy. Student interviews, student journals, and field notes were examined and the content analyzed. Students who began to display a truancy pattern and who have displayed symptoms of truancy in a previous school year were selected from a stratified random sample. Students were chosen to represent the ethnic and gender percentages of their school. During the first months of truancy, behavior modification steps were applied to the students which incorporated successful elements of major exemplary truancy programs. These students having not responded …

The Legacy Of The Hawaiian Cultivator In Windward Valleys Of Hawaii. (Volumes I And Ii)., Ronald Norman Terry

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

The composition of a forest of relicts of cultivation in four uninhabited valleys in Kohala, Hawaii, is documented. A general hypothesis is made that arboreal distribution patterns are a function of both historical land use and ecological interaction since abandonment. The physical and historical geography of the valleys was investigated. Climate varies little, but distinct geomorphic zones offer differing biological environments. Prehistoric land use consisted of taro patches with intercropped banks. Talus slope gardens supported the Polynesian tree crops 'ohi'a 'ai (Eugenia malaccensis), kukui (Aleurites moluccana), 'ulu, (Artocarpus incisus), ti (Cordyline terminalis), and noni (Morinda citrifolia), important in today's flora. …
