Charles The Bold, De Lamar Jensen
Charles The Bold, De Lamar Jensen
BYU Studies Quarterly
Brigham Young University history professor De Lamar Jensen lived in France in 1965, when this essay was written. Jensen gives a brief sketch of Charles the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, who craved a loftier title and a united empire stretching from the Mediterranean to the North Sea, encompassing France and Germany. Fearless and power hungry, Charles the Bold lacked diplomacy. He angered his European neighbors and suffered defeat at their hands.

Speak of the History of California and the part played by the Swiss: imnediately you will have one reaction and one name mentioned: Sutter.

There might be here or there a short article of general interest. Add to this the very good book of our Board Member Maurice Edmond Perret, Professor of Geography, Wisconsin State University, Stevens Point, Wisconsin, on ticinesi colonies in California and this is about the sumtotal of the literature which …

BYU Studies Quarterly
Using data first published by the House of Representatives Committee on Foreign Affairs in 1965, one chart lists the membership of the communist party in communist countries (Albania, Bulgaria, China, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Hungary, North Korea, Mongolia, Poland, Romania, USSR, North Vietnam, and Yugoslavia) and whether they affiliated with China or the USSR. A second chart lists estimated numbers of Communists in free countries around the world and shows whether the majority of Communist party members in each country sympathized with China or the Soviet Union.

He was thinking, among other things, of the increclible chaos of doubtful, dogmatic philosophies of the late 1920's, many of which were offered as promises of salvation to …
