Nature, Man, And God In Robinson Jeffers’ Inhumanism, Chloe Winifred Armstrong

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Inhumanism, Robinson Jeffers' philosophical solution to the problems of modern society, is highly individualistic and reflects this author's pessimistic attitude toward the present and the future of the species. His definition, stated in prose as: " ... a shifting of emphasis and significance from man to not-man; the rejection of human solipsism and the recognition of the transhuman magnificence.", presents a cosmography made up of three divisions: man, not-man, and the transhuman magnificence. Man, in this definition, includes all the species homo sapiens from its beginning to some future end. Jeffers feels that the species came into being through environmental …

The English Second Person Pronoun: Its History And Its Significance In Shakespeare’S Richard Ii, Mary Janet De Jong Conley

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The English language has undergone many changes since its evolution from the Teutonic dialects. It has become simplified in many ways; one area of simplification is in the second person pronoun. Originally nine different forms of the Old English pronoun of address appeared, while today only three {you, your, yours) remain. Although ambiguity can and does result from only one form in the nominative and objective case (i.e., whether you is singular or plural in reference), the English-speaking people have reduced the pronoun to the same nominative and objective form as a means of linguistic economy. The problem of ambiguity …

Indian Slavery In Spanish Guatemala, 1524-1550, William L. Sherman

History ETDs

Some understanding of the state of native labor in the Indies is fundamental to an appreciation of post-Conquest society in the New World. The social and economic implications of Indian servitude are of such magnitude that they transcend other more dramatic aspects of Spanish domination in the sixteenth century. For Indian labor--certainly in the first decades--was the base upon which Spanish society reated; without it there waa a very real possibility of the abandonment of many American kingdoms. The degrees to which the conqueror depended upon the vanquished at once reflects the weak edifice of colonial society and defines the …

The Doctrine Of The Naqshabandi Order: A Study Of Mysticism In Islam, Madelain Farah Habib

Dissertations and Theses

The word mysticism in the English language has been corrupted and abused by its difference usages in the various disciplines such as religion, poetry, and philosophy.

The Sufi theme is "Know thyself and thou wilt know God."

Sufism has been considered by Sufis and by Orientalists as the ancient school of wisdom, of quietism, of attaining the highest union and of purification of the soul. It embodies the strains of …
