The Noble Brothers And Early Public Improvements In Indiana, Ruth Esther Amos Jan 1945

The Noble Brothers And Early Public Improvements In Indiana, Ruth Esther Amos

Graduate Thesis Collection

The years from 1810 to 1840 deal with one of the most decisive periods in Indiana's history, first as a territory and later as a state. Few periods have seen greater political and material development. During these years great problems, such as the organization of the state government, the disposition of the public lands by the Federal government, and the construction of internal improvements by the national and state governments, had to be solved by those who bore the responsibilities of public office. Great national political movements were in the making. These matured into powerful forces, shaping not only national …

The Changing Attitudes Toward Consonance And Dissonance In Various Historical Periods, Edith H. Carter Jan 1945

The Changing Attitudes Toward Consonance And Dissonance In Various Historical Periods, Edith H. Carter

Graduate Thesis Collection

The problem of consonance and dissonance has intrigued and baffled theorists since the days of Pythagoras. There are many aspects of the problem which have never been satisfactorily explained. All are agreed, however, that consonances are those relations of pitch which can be expressed in small numbers. Why this should be so, no one has been able to decide definitely, at least up until Helmholtz wrote his Sensations of Tone. It is also self-evident that consonance is a restful and dissonance a restless sound, that dissonance demands resolution into consonance and that the two are necessary to each other, in …

Conrad Baker, Former Governor Of Indiana, Arnold Ernst R. Muelller

The Influence Of Machiavelli On Francis Bacon: A Critical Examination, Blanche E. Ferguson Jan 1944

The Influence Of Machiavelli On Francis Bacon: A Critical Examination, Blanche E. Ferguson

Graduate Thesis Collection

The association of the name of Francis Bacon with that of Niccolo Machiavelli is no novelty to the modern reader. But in most instances this association is brief and fleeting, possessed of a will-o'-the-wisp character that is at once unsatisfying and challenging. The natural conclusion to which one is tempted to leap is that Bacon, since he is the more recent in point of time, was influenced by the great Florentine in matters of philosophy and style. A second possibility is that both men were influenced by similar conditions of political and cultural backgrounds. A still further consideration lies in …

The Pauline Concept Of The New Man, Clarence William Franz Jun 1942

The Pauline Concept Of The New Man, Clarence William Franz

Graduate Thesis Collection

This thesis is to be primarily a character analysis. Naturally that will eliminate considerations that might be easily included. As far as possible a strenuous effort will be made to avoid detailed discussions about theological issues that inescapably belong to such a study as this. In a character analysis we must be concerned principally with individuality in persons. By that we mean to treat all those features and characteristions which distinguish the new man from the old. Those theological factors having to do primarily with the state of man in his relation to God will only be touched upon. It …

A Study Of Paul's Mystical Experiences, Carl Franklin Andry Jan 1942

A Study Of Paul's Mystical Experiences, Carl Franklin Andry

Graduate Thesis Collection

Mysticism is the most distinctive characteristic of religion. It is considered by many religious thinkers to be the essential of religion. All religion, in order to be religion, is and must be, at least partly, mystical. Yet in spite of its great importance in religion, mysticism suffers from much confusion. Great mystics eloquently describe their mystical experiences they write volume upon volume about them. And after reading what they have to say, we are forced to ask ourselves, "What is mysticism?" Why so much confusion? If mysticism has anything of value to contribute to the world, it must be more …
