The Colonial Sources Of George Mason's Declaration Of Rights, Louise Ellyson Wiley
The Colonial Sources Of George Mason's Declaration Of Rights, Louise Ellyson Wiley
Honors Theses
I am attempting in this paper to describe the colonial ideas and institutions, which must have influenced George Mason in the writing of his Declaration of Rights for the Virginia Convention of 1776. First, I will show the effect of European thought and customs in the colonies. The English liberal tradition, which culminated in the seventeenth century struggle for civil liberties and a constitutional monarchy, is quite important. Since the Declaration of Rights can not be understood unless its immediate background is known, I will discuss the more American aspects of colonial life, which must have affected George Mason's political …

Administrative Reorganization Of The Government Of The State Of Virginia Under Governor Byrd, Robert Greg Barr
Administrative Reorganization Of The Government Of The State Of Virginia Under Governor Byrd, Robert Greg Barr
Honors Theses
Administrative reorganization is a tremendous subject. In the final analysis, it involves the history of administrative organization, proposals for its improvement, reforms in its structure, desirability of further changes, and the adequacy and beneficial effects of changes already instituted, as well as the broad ramifications of governmental theory inextricably related to any scheme of administrative structure. It is a study of the entire executive branch of a government in all its aspects. These subjects offer interesting fields of research for the student of government and history, as well as the student of economics in some instances. Exploitation of the opportunities …
The Disfranchisement Of An American Patriot, Arthur H. Brown Jr
The Disfranchisement Of An American Patriot, Arthur H. Brown Jr
Honors Theses
Two years ago this coming August I was fortunate enough to acquire the manuscript around which this treatise is built. When I acquired it I was of the opijnion that it was in Jefferson's own hand-writing. However, upon investigation I have discovered that although the body of the letter greatly resembles Jefferson's hand, th esignature is not his. Therefore, the most plausible explanation is that this is a contemporary copy of a letter which Jefferson wrote. It was customary in Jefferson's day to have several scriveners whose sole duty was to copy letters. This may be such a copy. Or, …
Enrico A. Nelson : His Work In Brazil, John W. Bain

This is the partial story of a man who devoted his life to preaching the Gospel in foreign lands as a Baptist missionary. The material was gathered from Mr. Nelson's letters and reports written to Rev. W. J. Willingham and Dr. Ray, secretaries of the Foreign Missions Board o the Southern Baptist Convention from 1893 to 1925.
A History Of Hanover Town In Virginia, William Hamilton Enslow
A History Of Hanover Town In Virginia, William Hamilton Enslow
Master's Theses
The history of the town as such is short--scarcely seventy years--but there was of course a long interval of sketchily recorded events prior to its foundation, in the area which immediately surrounds the site. In all, the period covered by this paper is about a century and three quarters; in that time the frontier post came and went, was succeeded by the tobacco town, and that too faded, leaving only shards and foundations to mark its place.
The Ugly In Aesthetics, Francis G. Wilson
The Ugly In Aesthetics, Francis G. Wilson
Master's Theses
First we must admit representative ugliness tor purposes of realism, truth, and in connection with the significant the characteristic and such types. Also, we must admit distortion tor purposes of power, emotional strength, logical and organic consistency, and so forth. Possibly the ugly may be admitted to heighten beauty; and certain other forms of the ugly will be admitted artistically so long as comedy and tragedy are called art-forms.
So far, then, as beauty in the wide sense is concerned, the first category or ugliness cannot be anti-thetical to beauty because it is included in, beauty, and is a positive …

Virginia During The Spotswood Era, Garland D. Haddock
Master's Theses
The Spotswood era is important not because of the significance of the individual events of the period but for its influence in mould ing and fostering the ideas of democracy and freedom that caused the American War for Independence.

The Writings Against The Adoption Of The Constitution, Henry E. Cake
The Writings Against The Adoption Of The Constitution, Henry E. Cake
Honors Theses
It is a small wonder that when delegates were sent to Philadelphia to consider forming a national or federal government that would be the supreme power binding the thirteen states together into one great unit that there was opposition to the formulation of a constitution and even greater - or at least more numerous - objections to phraseology and fundamental ideas of each article at every step of the formulatin gprocess. While there were one or two of the opposition who appear as cranks and chronic objectors, it seems that most of the membres of the opposition to the adoption …
George Wythe : A Biographical Sketch, Harold G. Owens
George Wythe : A Biographical Sketch, Harold G. Owens
Honors Theses
George Wythe is not nearly as well known or appreciated by Virginians as he should be. It is surprising how little has been done in Virginia in remembrance of him, who left so much for his state and for his country. In this thesis, which is more than an eulogy, I have attempted to show just how important George Wythe was to the development of our state and to the growth of the American Republic. If this paper ever finds its way into the hands of one reader who has never heard of George Wythe, its purpose will have been …
The Catilinian Conspiracy : A Translation From French, Walter E. Bass
The Catilinian Conspiracy : A Translation From French, Walter E. Bass
Master's Theses
Of all the characters of the Ancient World none is better known today, both to scholars and to those whose knowledge of that history is small, than Cicero; Statesman, Orator, and Author. And of all the achievements of that great man the most widely known is the part he took, in cooperation with the Senatorial party in crushing the Catilinian Conspiracy.
Despite the fact that this is his outstanding achievement, however, there is nowhere in English a full history of that period. In text books containing the orations of Cicero, will be found a chapter or so on the subject, …
The Reflection Of The United States Steel Corporation In America's Industrial Drama, Ethne Flanagan
The Reflection Of The United States Steel Corporation In America's Industrial Drama, Ethne Flanagan
Honors Theses
We need only to open our eyes and cast a glance about us to recognize that our modern twentieth century life is girded with steel. Steel is the very key product of the present era of the evolution of man. In the beginning it was stone, then bronze, and then iron, but today it is steel which conditions the industrialized political, economic, and social life of our country.
