St. Augustine's Theology Of Grace, John Van Lierop Nov 1947

St. Augustine's Theology Of Grace, John Van Lierop

Master of Sacred Theology Thesis

As a result of my study it is my conv1·ction that Grace is the heart of the Gospel - and that with all the talk about Ecumenical Christianity today, I believe it will be hopeless to strive for one great "World Church" unless there is first an agreement and unity about the Theology of Grace, which is the foundation-stone of all Theology.


The Lutheran Army Chaplain, Walther A. Huchthausen Oct 1947

The Lutheran Army Chaplain, Walther A. Huchthausen

Bachelor of Divinity

To describe adequately the Lutheran Army chaplain is a little more difficult. Although all the material mentioned would apply to him in a general way, other factors need to be brought into the picture which are not given expression in any of the literature that has been produced about the chaplain and his work. The doctrinal position of our Church, its polity, its missionary character, and its devotion to the Holy Scriptures as the only norm of doctrine and rule of life are all matters which affect the status of the Lutheran Army chaplain, emphasize his need, and tend to …

Development Of A Proposed Course Of Study In American History For The Senior High School, Floyd Gagnon Aug 1947

Development Of A Proposed Course Of Study In American History For The Senior High School, Floyd Gagnon

Masters Theses

Chapter I

Introduction

I. Importance and Statement of the Problem

During the past fifty years secondary schools have made rapid advances both in enrollments and in the curriculum. In 1890 these schools were still the schools of the few, even though their enrollments had begun to grow rapidly. The high schools have continued their rapid growth until today today they present an extremely wide range of individual differences in such areas as interests, abilities and needs. Of the millions of students attending these schools today, probably six out of every seven will never attend college. It is thus apparent that …

Hawthorne's Multiple Choice In Symbolism, Helen R. Haight Jul 1947

Hawthorne's Multiple Choice In Symbolism, Helen R. Haight

English Language and Literature ETDs

Among Hawthorne critics, only Matthiessen, Winters, and Higginson have made comment on the multiple choice technique employed by Hawthorne in his presentation of the symbol. Matthissen recognizes its potentialities; Winters condemns it unmercifully; and T.W. Higginson has written an article in which he suggested that the device "was perhaps borrowed by Austin's Peter Rug." The multiple choice technique, or, as Winters terms it, the formula of alternative possibilities, consists of showing not only one correspondence between the symbol and the thing it symbolizes but several, and giving the reader a choice of interpretations. Since these three notable critics have …

Modern Women Poets Of Brazil, Marie Pope Wallis Jun 1947

Modern Women Poets Of Brazil, Marie Pope Wallis

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

This study was written to introduce the poetry of Brazil's leading women poets to the English-speaking world. Brazilian literature itself is as little known as the Portuguese language in which it is written. Brazilian poetry as a whole has not been widely evaluated. The poetry of Brazilian women, in particular, is practically unknown to the Brazilian as well as to the English-speaking public.

There were four criteria for the selection of these particular five living women poets. They were chosen on the basis of volume of published works. Several poetesses of promise had to be omitted because their publications were …

The Relations Between The English And The Scottish Reformations, Carl Napier Jr Jun 1947

The Relations Between The English And The Scottish Reformations, Carl Napier Jr

Bachelor of Divinity

The purpose of the writer's original investigation was to find out what influences and connections existed between the two Reformations. The purpose of this study is to show that before Henry VIII English efforts at union were almost wholly political. At least there is no mention of religious-political parties. War and conciliation were the diplomatic weapons. After Henry's break with the Pope by the Act of Supremacy in 1534 and to 1707 when the final union of the crowns took place political and religious relations became closely entwined. Henry and his successors, particularly Elizabeth, used religion in fostering the political …
