Teaching Ethics: Why Is It Important? How Should It Be Done?, Miroslav Kis
Teaching Ethics: Why Is It Important? How Should It Be Done?, Miroslav Kis
Faculty Publications
Ethics concerns every aspect of human life. This, logically, issues out of the Biblical view of the unity of human nature. Education, while compartmentalized didactically for the purpose of specialization, cannot be complete unless some interdisciplinary and essentially human needs are met as well. Seventh-day Adventist graduates in colleges Should not be only excellent nurses, skillful secretaries, money-making businessmen but also outstanding Christians within their vocation. The world does not need to see how one can be a Christian within the church building or setting. Rather, what difference does it make to see a Christian physician as compared to a …
Eastward To Eden: The Nauvoo Rescue Missions, Richard E. Bennett
Eastward To Eden: The Nauvoo Rescue Missions, Richard E. Bennett
Faculty Publications
I have felt sensibly there was a good deal of suffering among the saints in Nauvoo, as there has been amongst us, but the Lord God who has fed us all the day long, has his care still over us and when the saints are chastened enough, it will cease. I have ever believed the Lord would suffer a general massacre of this people by a mob. If ten thousand men were to come against us, and no other way was open for our deliverance, the earth would swallow them up (Journal History, 27 Sept. 1846). These were the words …
"'Minds That Move At Large': A Scottish Perspective On Collegiate Literary Societies, Past And Present", Patrick G. Scott
"'Minds That Move At Large': A Scottish Perspective On Collegiate Literary Societies, Past And Present", Patrick G. Scott
Faculty Publications
This paper contrasts two kinds of literary society, based on examples from eighteenth-century Edinburgh: the "ludic" or playful use of rhetoric in the early 18th century Easy Club, centred on the Scottish poet Allan Ramsay (1686-1758), and the "agonistic" or forensic rhetoric of the later 18th century Speculative Society, especially as seen in the Scottish lawyer and reviewer Francis Jeffrey (1773-1850) and in the influential Edinburgh Review for which he wrote. The paper originated as the keynote address to Rhetor '86: the Convention of the National Association of Collegiate Literary Societies, held in Columbia, SC, October 10, 1986.

Sacred Flutes, Fertility, And Growth In The Papua New Guinea Highlands, Terence E. Hays
Sacred Flutes, Fertility, And Growth In The Papua New Guinea Highlands, Terence E. Hays
Faculty Publications
Since Read's (1952) classic study of the nama cult of the Goroka area, ethnographers in the Papue New Guinea Highlands haved focused considerable attention on what I shall refere to as a "sacred flute complex" around which men's cults are organized. The flutes have been seen as acore symbol of male hegemony, and their associated riges and dogma as key factors in the perpetuation of "antagonistic" relations between the sexes, for which that region has long been known. In specific cases ethnographers have provided ingenious and persuasive analyses of the symbolic aspects of sacred flutes (e.g., Herdt 1981, 1982; Gillison …

Cousin Laman In The Wilderness: The Beginnings Of Brigham Young's Indian Policy, Richard E. Bennett
Cousin Laman In The Wilderness: The Beginnings Of Brigham Young's Indian Policy, Richard E. Bennett
Faculty Publications
Historians of the American West have observed that compared with most other mid-19th century American overlanders, whether Oregon-bound farmers or California Agronauts, the Mormons enjoyed a relatively more amicable, more peaceful relationship with the American Indian. Furthermore several contend with cause that Brigham Young was the principal architect of peace with the Ute, Shoshoni, Navaho, Hopi, and other tribes in the deserts and valleys of "Deseret," the Mormon Zion in the Great Basin Kingdom. Leonard Arrington, Davis Bitton, James Allen, and other modern writers have argued that Young pursued a conciliatory (if not self protective and condescending) policy toward the …

Über Goethes "Classiker Und Romantiker In Italien [...]", Ilona Klein
Faculty Publications
Der zweite, 1820 veröffentlichte Band von "Über Kunst und Alterthum" enthielt einen Artikel Goethes, dessen ersten Teil er bereits zwei Jahre zuvor verfaßt hatte. Der Aufsatz mit dem Titel "Klassiker und Romantiker in Italien, sich heftig bekämpfend" sollte die literarische Szene Italiens im zweiten Jahrzehnt des 19. Jahrhunderts beschreiben. Der zweite Satz des Artikels lautet folgendermaßen: Das Publicum theilt sich in zwei Parteien, sie stehen schlagfertig gegen einander, und wenn wir Deutschen uns ganz geruhig des Adjectivum romantisch bei Gelegenheit bedienen, so werden dort durch die Ausdrücke Romanticismus und Kriticismus zwei unversöhnliche Seiten bezeichnet.

La Variation Du /R/ Dans L'Espagnol De Santiago, Orlando Alba
La Variation Du /R/ Dans L'Espagnol De Santiago, Orlando Alba
Faculty Publications
Le segment phonologique /r/ en position implosive montre une grande variete de manifestations phonetiques dans les differents dialectes hispaniques (v. Navarro Tomas 1972; Alarcos Llorach 1968; Zamora Vicente 1970). Parmi les manifestations les plus connues, on peut citer la variante alveolaire vibrante simple carne 'viande', la fricative carne, l'aspiree cahne, la lateralisee caIne, l'assimilee canne et l'elidee cane. On considere generalement la vibrante comme la realisation standard, mais la norma culta 'la norme cultivee' admet aussi la prononciation fricative. Toutes les autres prononciations, des points de vue academique et normatif, sont jugees vulgaires, populaires ou regionales (Navarro Tomas 1972:119-121).
