Ash Hollow Cave: A Study Of Stratigraphic Sequence In The Central Great Plains, John L. Champe Jan 1946

Ash Hollow Cave: A Study Of Stratigraphic Sequence In The Central Great Plains, John L. Champe

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

The Great Plains has been an important laboratory for anthropological research since the latter part of the nineteenth century. Much of the early work was ethnological in character, a consequence, perhaps, of the late preservation of tribal life in the area. These early studies, however, cover a wide range and include subjects as diverse as tribal ethnographies, special studies in ethnobotany, and distributional analyses of Sun Dance traits. Although many of the earlier studies stressed historical sequences, a definite swing away from this position soon developed. By the middle of the nineteen-twenties, in fact, investigators became so preoccupied with distributional …

Gabriel Harvey's Ciceronianus, Harold S. Wilson, Clarence A. Forbes Nov 1945

Gabriel Harvey's Ciceronianus, Harold S. Wilson, Clarence A. Forbes

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

While he was still in his middle twenties,2 Harvey distinguished himself at Cambridge as a teacher and one of the University's most accomplished Latinists. He was warmly praised and encouraged by older scholars like William Lewin and Bartholomew Clerke; he inspired the devoted friendship of Edmund Spenser; and he enjoyed the patronage, at one time or another, of statesmen of the eminence of Sir Thomas Smith, Sir Walter Mildmay, Lord Burghley, and the Earl of Leicester. The man whose character and talents were thus admired and commended became one of the most learned scholars of his age and exerted a …

The Future Of Poetry, Louise Pound Jan 1944

The Future Of Poetry, Louise Pound

Department of English: Faculty Publications

Poetry is the most beautiful form of human speech. The human race has always had its song and always will have it. It may not be expected to die out. In our present century, however, its status has altered. There are relatively fewer hearers or readers of it than in the long stretches of the past and fewer noted poets. Professors offer courses in the great poetry of the world, and one hopes that they will continue to do so. Poetry societies exist on campuses in great numbers. Prizes are offered to encourage young poets and avenues of publication opened …


The Poet Bland And Sixteen Specimen Poems, Martin Severin Peterson Dec 1943

The Poet Bland And Sixteen Specimen Poems, Martin Severin Peterson

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

The only appeal that needs to be made for the poet, Henry Meade Bland, is that he deserves to be better known. The shadow of obscurity has fallen upon a number of our American regional poets and their places in the sun usurped by practitioners of the more currently popular forms of literature. When interest in poetry some day revives, it will be useful to have a record of the poets who responded to their surroundings because of an inward urge to sing. Some of the truly indigenous literature of our own and earlier times is to be found in …

Teachers' Pay In Ancient Greece, Clarence A. Forbes May 1942

Teachers' Pay In Ancient Greece, Clarence A. Forbes

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

One who ventures upon an account of how the teachers of Greek antiquity fared in the matter of remuneration might do well to begin by entreating exemption from such a penalty a the luckless Phrynichus brought down upon himself for his tear-provoking tragedy of the mileton alusis. The Athenians fined Phrynichus a thousand drachmas, we are told, "because he had reminded them of their own troubles."

Generally speaking, intellectual labors in ancient Greece prior to the Hellenistic Age were undertaken for their own sake, with no thought of securing material rewards.2 The dramatists were spurred by competition, but not by …


A Review Of The Daimonelix Problem, C. Bertrand Schultz Mar 1942

A Review Of The Daimonelix Problem, C. Bertrand Schultz

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

THE first paleontological expedition of the University of Nebraska State Museum was organized in the summer of 1891 and was led by Erwin H. Barbour, now Director Emeritus of the Museum. The most important and interesting discoveries made during the season were some very peculiar spiral fossils called by the field party "Devil's Corkscrews," or Daimonelix,l which were found in the Miocene deposits near Harrison in Sioux County, Nebraska. During the fifty years that have intervened scientists have tried to determine the origin of these strange forms. Several controversies arose, and although various theories have been proposed, none as yet …

English In Wartime: A Symposium By College Teachers, Louise Pound, Karl Young, P. G. Perrin, Charles Child Walcutt, R. S. Crane, Louise M. Rosenblatt, Warner G. Rice, George R. Coffman, Oscar James Campbell

Department of English: Faculty Publications

After the declaration of war upon us by the Axis nations, it seemed the editors of College English that the members of the College should, as soon as possible, co-operate in determining how best to fulfil our special responsibility throughout World War II. As a first step, we invited twenty-five teachers of English in colleges and universities to suggest how we should meet this professional emergency.

The Planning Commission of the N.C.T.E., at their meeting in Chicago during the Christmas holidays, and the College Section, at their meeting in Indianapolis with the M.L.A., considered general and basic wartime policies for …


Hunting Scenes On Roman Glass In The Rhineland, Michael Ginsburg Aug 1941

Hunting Scenes On Roman Glass In The Rhineland, Michael Ginsburg

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

THE Roman conquerors who settled down to colonize a new province always tried to surround themselves with a new life reminiscent of the life they had left behind in Rome. When the Roman Empire began to expand northward beyond the Alps, first in Gaul and then later in Western Germany, among the many articles brought over by the Romans for their daily use and unknown until then in the new countries were objects made of glass which were part of the common paraphernalia of life in Italy. First, glassware was imported from Italy and those provinces where its production had …


Der Wiedertäufer In Der Deutschen Literatur Des Neunzehnten Und Zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts, Maria Wiebe Jul 1941

Der Wiedertäufer In Der Deutschen Literatur Des Neunzehnten Und Zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts, Maria Wiebe

Department of Modern Languages and Literatures: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

Einleitung

In der Literatur findet man eine reiche Fülle verschiedener Charaktere und Typen. Ein Dichter interessiert sich für den Künstler und seine Lebensauffassung, ein anderer für den religiösen Menschen, ein dritter stellt den Materialisten dar. Der religiöse Mensch als Typus hat oft den Dichter gefessellt und interessiert.

Der religiöse Mensch steht abseits van der Volksmenge und hat ein anderes Ziel im Auge wie sie. Er lebt für eine andere Welt, darum schätzt er diese Welt und ihre Werte anders ein. Die Volksmenge kann wohl kaum verstehen, dass man sich Opfer auferlege um seines Glaubenswillen, oder gar dafür leiden und sterben …
