Caesar In Spain : An Economic Policy?, Robert O. Turek
Caesar In Spain : An Economic Policy?, Robert O. Turek
Master's Theses
The question we set out to investigate was whether Caesar exhibited an organized policy toward the economy of the Spanish provinces. Two distinct aspects have been considered: that of Spain itself and its economic growth and that of Caesar personally and his policies.
During the first century B.C. the Spanish peninsula was exhibiting signs of the economic growth which reached its height during the first two centuries of Imperial times. Mining, industry and commerce were flourishing. Agriculture was becoming ore diverse and profitable. Italian immigration, both of money and manpower, was providing an impetus to spur the growth which had …
Random Recollections Of Campaigning With Colonel Roosevelt, John Proctor Clarke
Random Recollections Of Campaigning With Colonel Roosevelt, John Proctor Clarke
The Courier
Justice of the Supreme Court of New York John Proctor Clarke (1856-1932) wrote the following reminiscences of Theodore Roosevelt's New York gubernatorial and presidential campaigns many years after the events and expressly for the Roosevelt family. Clarke was aNew York corporation attorney at the time of the campaigns and one of the company of Roosevelt supporters who traveled with the campaign trains.
The anecdotal memoirs give an interesting perspective to turn-ofthe-century political campaigns. They are naturally favorable to Roosevelt and serve to add flavor to a man who already is known as one ofour more human presidents. While the memoirs …

The Song Of The Righteous: An Historical And Literary Analysis Of The Latter-Day Saint Hymnal, Ruth Alene Thomson Symons
The Song Of The Righteous: An Historical And Literary Analysis Of The Latter-Day Saint Hymnal, Ruth Alene Thomson Symons
Theses and Dissertations
The hymnal of the Latter-day Saints first proposed only shortly after the organization of the Church and published continually every few years between 1835 and 1871, is a remarkably accurate indicator of the changing fortunes and beliefs of the early Saints. The first hymnal, gathered by Emma Smith, uncompromisingly sets forth the basic Mormon belief in man's free agency, his innate perfectability, and his kinship to his Heavenly Father. Later editions reflect the missionary concerns of the church (1840), the tremendous persecution the saints are subjected to (1841), the Church difficulties after the martyrdom of Joseph Smith (1849), the call …

A Study Of The Contributions Of Andrew Jenson To The Writing And Preservation Of Lds Church History, Keith W. Perkins
A Study Of The Contributions Of Andrew Jenson To The Writing And Preservation Of Lds Church History, Keith W. Perkins
Theses and Dissertations
Andrew Jenson, Assistant Church Historian, was one of the most prolific writers of LDS Church History. Born in Damgren, Denmark, he immigrated to Utah when he was fifteen years old. Because of his lack of training, his early life was spent in various manual labor occupations. None of these was satisfying to him; he longed for something better. He began compiling and writing Church history. In this he found much joy and happiness. His labors were soon recognized by the General Authorities of the LDS church, and he was permanently engaged as a historian in the Church historian's office. He …
History Of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints In New Zealand, Brian W. Hunt
History Of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints In New Zealand, Brian W. Hunt
Theses and Dissertations
The History of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in New Zealand begins with the arrival of Mormon missionaries in New Zealand in 1854. They established themselves firmly among the Maori people during the 1880's. Their success was influenced by certain Maori prophecies and by the translation of the Book of Mormon into Maori. The LDS church made successful efforts in educating it's members by establishing schools as early as 1886. The mission established the Maori Agriculture College in 1913 and the Church College of New Zealand in 1958. A highlight in the history of the mission was …
History Of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints In Switzerland, Dale Z. Kirby
History Of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints In Switzerland, Dale Z. Kirby
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis gives an account of the establishment and development of the LDS Church in Switzerland without attempting to record a comprehensive chronological history. Instead, emphasis has been placed on beginnings and major historical developments.
In 1850, T. B. H. Stenhouse began teaching the "restored gospel" in French-Switzerland, at Geneva. Proselyting began in German-Switzerland in 1854. Despite mob violence and opposition from the clergy, press and civil authorities, some 9,846 joined the Church and 4,700 of these emigrated to "Zion." The discouragement of emigration, along with new emphasis on missionary work and improved proselyting methods, brought an unprecedented growth in …
A History Of Utah's Territorial Capitol Building At Fillmore, 1851-1969, Richard W. Payne
A History Of Utah's Territorial Capitol Building At Fillmore, 1851-1969, Richard W. Payne
Theses and Dissertations
The history of Utah's Territorial Capitol Building at Fillmore began in 1851 when Brigham Young desired a central location for the capital of the newly created Territory. Only one wing of the four wing plan was completed, because misunderstandings had arisen between Mormon and Federal officials that prevented further finances from being sent to Utah, and only one complete session of the Legislature met at Fillmore, in December 1855. Two one-day sessions were held there in December 1856 and December 1858. The 1856 session adjourned to Salt Lake until the Federal Government would send funds for the completion of the …
Background, Data And Biographical Information On The 104 First Jamestown Settlers, Catharine H. Ryland
Background, Data And Biographical Information On The 104 First Jamestown Settlers, Catharine H. Ryland
Honors Theses
Permanent colonization called for the common man as well as the adventurer, to whom life in the old England had become, for some reason or another, joyless and burdensome, and who welcomed the opportunity that new lands offered to better his worldly estate. Colonization required leaders and capital, but it demanded people as well -- men, women and children -- to build homes, till the soil, and provide for the coming generations. Without colonists of this type, settlement was bound to be costly and permanance was never assured. Why they came, how they were organized, who were in the first …

Fort Hays Studies Series
The eventual struggle between these two Weltanschauungen, National Socialism, and Marxism, needed to be translated into reality. The Program of the National Socialist German Worker's Party proposed in Point 22 the creation of a People's Army. After 1941 he intensified his attempts to make the Wehrmacht the tool of National Socialist ideology. It is the purpose of this study to trace Hitler's evolving program of using the military to accomplish his political ends.
