The Wehrmarcht: Soldiers And Germans During The Second World War, Neil Varble Dec 2007

The Wehrmarcht: Soldiers And Germans During The Second World War, Neil Varble

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The German Army, also known as the Wehrmacht, fought a brutal war on the Eastern Front during the Second World War. These soldiers, under the command of military officials of the Nazi state, vowed to destroy Bolshevism and Jewish populations. By examining letters from soldiers to family members on the German home front as well as letters from families to the men on the front lines, a better understanding of the motivations of war is revealed. Letters of these men and family members present insight into a vast area of research in German twentieth century history. An estimated 20 to …

Devotio Moderna: The Cornerstone Of The Reformation, Willis Miller Dec 2007

Devotio Moderna: The Cornerstone Of The Reformation, Willis Miller

Doctor of Ministry

Standing up to the ecclesiastical institutions of the late fourteenth century, the Devotio Moderna formed in the hopes of reforming the Catholic church. By comprehensively reviewing the Devotio Moderna, this thesis explores the question; was the Protestant Reformation possible without the steady and penetrating influence the Devout Brothers and Sisters? In contrast to the schismatic Reformation arriving a century later, this reformation pursued spiritual renewal for both laity and clergy. The movement achieved a measure of success, but in a manner the founders might not have anticipated. The Devout Brothers and Sisters lived in stark contrast to the failing Church; …


Recovering Spiritual Direction In The Protestant Tradition, Morris Dirks Dec 2007

Recovering Spiritual Direction In The Protestant Tradition, Morris Dirks

Doctor of Ministry

The purpose of this dissertation is to foster a commitment to the development of spiritual direction in the ongoing care of pastors within the Protestant tradition. The need to recover this practice, once well established in the church, is made obvious by the increasing challenges faced in ministry and the spiritual and emotional impact now experienced by pastors. More and more leaders are losing their way as a result of the unchecked stress fostered by the overwhelming expectations, whether real or perceived, which are placed on them. Pastoral responsibilities have been significantly compounded by the increasing programmatic and executive functions …

Elizabeth Bishop And The Modern Miraculous: "Filling Station" And Some Sources, David Sanders Dec 2007

Elizabeth Bishop And The Modern Miraculous: "Filling Station" And Some Sources, David Sanders

Verbum

In lieu of an abstract, below is the essay's first paragraph.

""Where there is great love," says Willa Cather’s Jean Latour in Death Comes for the Archbishop, "there are always miracles. . . . The Miracles of the Church . . . rest not so much upon power coming suddenly . . . from far off, but on our perceptions being made finer, so that for a moment our eyes can see and our ears can hear what is there about us always" (50). In this modern view, a miracle bespeaks the sudden perception or recognition of a power …

The Stem Cell Debate Continues: The Buying And Selling Of Eggs For Research, Françoise Baylis, Carolyn Mcleod Dec 2007

The Stem Cell Debate Continues: The Buying And Selling Of Eggs For Research, Françoise Baylis, Carolyn Mcleod

Philosophy Publications

Now that stem cell scientists are clamouring for human eggs for cloning-based stem cell research, there is vigorous debate about the ethics of paying women for their eggs. Generally speaking, some claim that women should be paid a fair wage for their reproductive labour or tissues, while others argue against the further commodification of reproductive labour or tissues and worry about voluntariness among potential egg providers. Siding mainly with those who believe that women should be financially compensated for providing eggs for research, the new stem cell guidelines of the International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) legitimise both reimbursement …

Musings On Music: Wagner, Redemption, And The Divine, Michael Costik Dec 2007

Musings On Music: Wagner, Redemption, And The Divine, Michael Costik

Verbum

In lieu of an abstract, below is the essay's first paragraph.

“How can I atone for my guilt?” This question is asked by the guileless fool, hero of Richard Wagner’s final Music Drama, Parsifal during Act Two; it is a sublime scene, and, perhaps, one of the finest examples of artistic mastery in existence. This is certainly open for debate, and subject to personal preference, but please allow me to at least use this as an example, since it has been instrumental in not only my musical growth, but also in my development and the recommitment to my Catholic faith. …


Putting Expectations In Order, Alan Richard Baker Dec 2007

Putting Expectations In Order, Alan Richard Baker

Philosophy Faculty Works

In their paper, “Vexing Expectations,” Nover and Hájek (2004) present an allegedly paradoxical betting scenario which they call the Pasadena Game (PG). They argue that the silence of standard decision theory concerning the value of playing PG poses a serious problem. This paper provides a threefold response. First, I argue that the real problem is not that decision theory is “silent” concerning PG, but that it delivers multiple conflicting verdicts. Second, I offer a diagnosis of the problem based on the insight that standard decision theory is, rightly, sensitive to order. Third, I describe a new betting scenario—the Alternating St. …


The Effects Of Background Music On The Reading Performance Of Taiwanese Esl Students, Peter Chou Dec 2007

The Effects Of Background Music On The Reading Performance Of Taiwanese Esl Students, Peter Chou

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to see what kinds of effects classical music and hip hop music have on the performance of a second language reading comprehension test in Taiwanese college students. According to Kahneman' s ( 1973) capacity model for attention, one may fail to perfonn an activity because the supply of attention needed for multiple tasks does not meet the demand needed to perfom1 each of the tasks. This explains why students perform better or worse on different cognitive tasks with certain types of background media. An experiment involving 123 participants from a medium size college in …

Reluctant Restorationist: Thomas Campbell's Trial And Its Role In His Legacy, Charles Franklin Brazell Dec 2007

Reluctant Restorationist: Thomas Campbell's Trial And Its Role In His Legacy, Charles Franklin Brazell

History Dissertations - Archive

In 1809, Thomas Campbell, with his son Alexander, founded an American religious movement that proposed the union of all Christians based upon the restoration of the New Testament church. The merging of this movement in 1832 with that of Barton W. Stone resulted in the formation of the Stone-Campbell Movement - a movement whose ideas for Christian unity were expressed by Thomas Campbell in his Declaration and Address, and which had the fundamental objective of achieving Christian unity based upon the teachings of the New Testament. Today, the Stone-Campbell Movement consists of three major American Protestant religious groups. The Christian …
