Sobre La Validez De La Hipótesis Funcional, Orlando Alba Oct 1980

Sobre La Validez De La Hipótesis Funcional, Orlando Alba

Faculty Publications

En este ensayo se utiliza la variación de la /s/ final de palabra para examinar la validez o no de la llamada hipótesis funcional. En el español de Santiago, cuando el segmento /s/ es una marca morfológica de número plural (niños) o de segunda persona verbal (cantas), es elidido con tanta o con mayor frecuencia que cuando no tiene una función morfológica (lunes). Se concluye, sin embargo, que este hecho no constituye una prueba decisiva en contra de la hipótesis funcional ya que la /s/ con valor morfológico constituye, generalmente, una …

Printed Maps Of Utah To 1900: An Annotated Cartobibliography, Riley Moore Moffat Aug 1980

Printed Maps Of Utah To 1900: An Annotated Cartobibliography, Riley Moore Moffat

Theses and Dissertations

Old maps are valuable research tools in many fields. Finding and identifying them, however, is often difficult. This annotated cartobibliography attempts to identify all maps of Utah printed before 1900. Entries give the distinguishing features, peculiarities, inaccuracies, and a general description as well as the map's provenance and citations in other lists and bibliographies.

The maps are listed chronologically and include all maps located in research collections in Utah, and in the catalogs of the Library of Congress and the Bancroft Library. Although the first entry is dated 1777, the first map of Utah made from actual observation, earlier maps …

Early Christmas At Emmanual Church, Bertha Louise Goetsch Jan 1980

Early Christmas At Emmanual Church, Bertha Louise Goetsch

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

I am of Swiss ancestry on both sides of the family. My paternal Grandfather Andreas Schifferly, b. 1811, was from Kt. Aargau. My mother was a Stalder from Lutzelfluh, b. 1851, and baptized by the eminent Jeremias Gotthelf, who was also a dear fried of the Stalder family, as well as their pastor. His novels were so much enjoyed by this family, and they carried them to the USA when they left Switzerland for Ohio, in 1853.

The Use Of Thierry Of Chartres' Hexameron By Anonymi De Elementis And Robert Grosseteste, Richard C. Dales Jan 1980

The Use Of Thierry Of Chartres' Hexameron By Anonymi De Elementis And Robert Grosseteste, Richard C. Dales

Quidditas

The twelfth century in the intellectual history of western Europe was a time of great creativity and freedom and a time during which the rate of acquisition of exotic material was at a maximum. In spite of this, however, the sources of much twelfth-century scientific writing and the use of twelfth-century authors by later writers is little known. Although the editor of a twelfth-century text can sometimes point to the specific source of his author, more often he must simply indicate similar passages in other works or indicate the ultimate source (e.g., Aristotle or Plotinus), which could not possibly have …

A Medieval Spanish Collectanea Of Astronomical Instruments: An Integrated Compilation, Anthony J. Cardenas

Quidditas

The fame of Alfonso X, il Sabio, 1221-1284, rests principally upon the voluminous literary production of his Royal Scriptorium. Many of the original Alfonsine codices survive today and can be found in the libraries of England, France, Italy, and, of course, Spain.


Fools And Fool-Makers: Types Of Comic Characters In Renaissance Literature, Russell J. Meyer Jan 1980

Fools And Fool-Makers: Types Of Comic Characters In Renaissance Literature, Russell J. Meyer

Quidditas

A common impulse in studies of the comic figure, in the Renaissance as well as more recently, has been to seek a single feature which marks all such characters. Most sixteenth-century theorists agreed that both ugliness and surprise play major roles in the success of a comic figure, but their concern on the one hand with the rhetorical powers of laughter and on the other with the moral effects of comedy led them to accept principles which do not actually reflect the experience of comic literature. In their search for a single consolidating feature of all comic figures, the Renaissance …


Machiavelli's The Prince: A Lexical Enigma, Jeane Luere Jan 1980

Machiavelli's The Prince: A Lexical Enigma, Jeane Luere

Quidditas

Italians today, especially Florentines, unreservedly venerate their native son, Niccolo Machiavelli, 16th century Italian political figure, along with Francesca Petrarcha, Dante Alighieri, and Michelangelo Buonarroti; they attach no stigma, no unfavorable connotation, to the adjective "Machiavellian," coined from the name so famous in literature and legend. An American abroad encounters this total veneration of Machiavelli with some bewilderment, for we are prone to attitudes like that of Thomas Babington Macaulay, who wrote, "We doubt whether any names in literary history be so generally odious as that of Machiavelli."


The Book Index: Plutarch's Moralia And John Donne, John Shawcross Jan 1980

The Book Index: Plutarch's Moralia And John Donne, John Shawcross

Quidditas

Thomas Carew's elegy on John Donne points up an important fact (and distinction); Donne little employed allusions to classical literature and learning such as authors like Edmund Spenser and John Milton did, much to the glee of teachers and the bane of students. But glosses on Donne's works also turn up relatively few contemporary or near-contemporary references to informational volumes, whether in English or in Latin. He knew Galileo's Siderus Nuncius, 1610, and he owned and used such works as Nicholas Harpsfield's Dialogi Sex contra Summi Pontificatus, Monasticae Vitae, Sanctorum, Sacrarum, Imaginum Oppugnatores, et pseudo-martyres, 1566, and …
