Some Eschatological Views Of The Fate Of The Wicked In Human History, Ormonde Stanly Brown

Graduate Thesis Collection

The writer expresses the hope that this treatment of an important subject may be found interesting--he knows this it can scarcely be found pleasant reading. It is our purpose to treat of the "eschatological views of the fate of the wicked"--Hell ideas entertained--"in human history". These are many. While most of them agree at some points, the range of ideas is broad, and "human history" is broad. We wish to emphasize our disinterest, for the purpose of this thesis, in eschatological views of the reward of the "good," save to say that, generally, this is but 'the other side of …

The Individual And The Kingdom Of God, Frederic A. Chandler

Graduate Thesis Collection

The Kingdom of God as depicted by Jesus Christ is the only human society that will effectually eliminate the conflict between the individual and society.

To prove this thesis, the succeeding chapter's will proceed as the nature of the subject dictates. First, as the individual human being is the fixed and unchangeable factor in this problem, the first step will be to give an adequate definition of a person. Next, since his conflict with his fellows reaches the very essence of his being when it touches his moral nature, morality will be defined and it will be shown what that …

Experimental Studies In Junior High School Monotonism, Lina Baldauf Knight

Graduate Thesis Collection

The individual who lacks the use of his voice as a musical instrument lacks the natural, fundamental medium of musical expression. Not only does he lack the means for the closest and most direct relationship with music, but also there is a serious danger that, as a result, his whole range of musical appreciation will be impaired and finally obliterated. This is likely to occur because he does not have at his command and under his control this power which he so definitely needs. Children who are thus handicapped are often designated by the use of the word monotone.

Lutheran Elementary Schools In The Central District Of The Missouri Synod, Edwin L. Kirchhoff

Graduate Thesis Collection

This discourse presents significant data relating to major developments in the elementary school system of the Central District of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod of Missouri, Ohio, and Other States. Some inferences are made which are based on information pertaining to the school system of the entire synod. These data, however, are used and interpreted as it affects the schools in this district.

The Importance, Influence, And Continuity Of Bronte Juvenilia In Reference To The Mature Works, Thelma Lucile Cooley

Graduate Thesis Collection

It is the purpose of this thesis to discuss the Bronte juvenilia only in reference to the mature works and to make clear what influences and likenesses there are between the two, and what currents of continuity exist from the childhood writing through the adult accomplisbment. In such an inquiry Charlotte Bronte, of course, provides the richest reward. For only hers and Branwell's juvenile writings remain to us, and of these two only she wrote significantly with a mature purpose. But the search is barren in none of the four: in all--Charlotte and Branwell, Emily and Anne--the investigation becomes the …

A Study In The Psychology Of Religious Sentiment, Wm. Linton Davis

Graduate Thesis Collection

Religion is a vital subject. This dissertation either makes a contribution to the study of the psychology of religion, or else it is a waste of time trifling with a very vital subject. There are various phases of the psychology of religion such as the origin of religion; the phenomena connected with conversion and religious revivals; with mysticism, spiritism, occultism, ecstasy, and prophetism; with the subconscious, faith-cure, Christian Science, etc.; the interconnection of mind and body; and the growth of the religious consciousness.

The History Of The Indiana Farm Bureau Cooperative Association, Dudley Diggs Davis

Graduate Thesis Collection

Such a study should throw light on a number of questions of social import: Can a co-operative be a success, from a purely business point of view? What is the effect of a co-operative organization on capitalist business? What effect, if any, will a co-operative have on prices? Are co-operatives subject to mushroom development and doomed to a short life? What aro the factors which lie behind the organization of a co-operative? Do co-operatives serve their members and patrons better than capitalist businesses? What are the social effects of co-operative associations? This thesis answers these questions insofar as the history …

A Psychological Approach To Christian Marriage, Francis L. Getz

Graduate Thesis Collection

We will make it our purpose of this thesis to approach Christian marriage from a two-fold standpoint; we will search for the New Testament concept of marriage, unhampered by set theological patterns of thought; we will approach it psychologically.

Positivism In The Works Of George Eliot, Bernice Jones

Graduate Thesis Collection

This paper attempts to find in the facts of George Eliot's life the evidences of positive philosophy, to trace the philosophy to its logical basis and to show its influence on her work. There are many who say such a study is useless or at best unimportant, but I do not agree. I am not attempting to "piece out" an entire philosophy by combining fragmentary allusions I have found in her work. I am not disappointed to find her thought inconsistent, or mixed, or different at one period from another. There is no philosophical system that must not admit ambiguity …

Female Education As Reflected In Victorian Fiction, Mary F. Fields Beeler

Graduate Thesis Collection

Enduring literature is said to be an outcome of the times that produced it. Conversely, it may be said to be an open door into the life and place where it originated. Entering this open door into the Victorian period, it is my purpose to show to what extent one phase of that life is mirrored there.

The Physician In Shakespeare And Jonson, Eleanor W. Kahn

Graduate Thesis Collection

The science of medicine is probably linked more closely to the daily life of man than any other science. The sheer necessity of healing brought forth first remedies, and whether the art of healing was practiced by the wise-woman, the priest, or the medicine man, the practitioners of this art were undoubtedly a very important factor in the lives of their contemporaries.

Legislative Control Of Kokomo, Indiana A Typical Third Class Indiana City, Forrest L. Roe

Graduate Thesis Collection

Pauline Evangelism, Samuel Emerick

Graduate Thesis Collection

The objective of the writer of this thesis is to present a plain account of the work of Paul as an evangelist in the field of early Christianity. In his labors to spread the gospel, and in his endeavors to lead people to accept and obey that gospel, Paul was a devoted man. His devotion to this great cause, however, had not always been characteristic of Paul. He once lived in direct hostility to the cause for which he later endangered and finally surrendered his life. This change of mind and conduct will be better understood when we consider his …

The Tragic Light In Edwin Arlington Robinson, Margaret L. Dauner

Graduate Thesis Collection

Edwin Arlington Robinson is generally acknowledged to be particularly the "poet of failures". His poems deal preeminently with the problems of men and women who err through their various limitations, and who usually err tragically. Since this is true, it is necessary to survey briefly, and attempt to classify, the materials from which the analyses for this study will be drawn. Such a survey will follow immediately in a subsequent chapter.

A History Of Wilmington Yearly Meeting Of The Religious Society Of Friends, Elmer H. Brown Jr.

Graduate Thesis Collection

Wilmington Yearly Meeting of Friends is nearing its fiftieth anniversary of its founding, 1892-1942. It should be of particular interest to the entire membership of the Yearly Meeting to pause and reflect on these eventful years that go to make up its history, not for the sake of the history itself, not to boast over any singular achievements, but rather to receive an insight and sense of direction that may profit the institution in years to come.
