Dying Into Life: A Study In The History Of Christian Humility, Pierce Johnson

History ETDs

In this study three of the most prominent Christian types will be presented: the apostle, the monk, and the mystic. They will be taken up in the order of their appearance in Christian history, and each one will be represented by a single historical figure. The reasons for choosing these three types may be largely personal. They are especially well-suited for bringing out what seem to me to be the most important insights into the Christian experience.

Kingston-Upon-Hull To The End Of The Reign Of Edward Ii, Floyd W. Snyder

History ETDs

The major objective of this research monograph is to study the development of Hull during the reigns of Edward I and Edward II, between the years 1272 and 1327. These are probably the most important years in the growth of Hull in the medieval period. They were the formative years of the port's development, and their span saw Hull grow to become one of the great ports of England. Some of the problems encountered in this study, however, did not permit it to be confined entirely to the reigns of the two Edwards. The story of the foundation of Hull, …

John W. Forney, The Washington Chronicle, And The Civil War Era, James Leroy Oxford

History ETDs

This dissertation follows the party battles of a political journalist, John W. Forney, through the Civil War era. More specifically, it explains how such a politician with winning personality and few scruples was able to gain favor and power. It traces his influence on ante-bellum factional and party alignments, especially in the Democratic party. The main emphasis, however, is upon the techniques of Abraham Lincoln and his cabinet members in their efforts to guide an important newspaper organ, Forney's Washington Chronicle. But such influence was reciprocated, and Forney's efforts to compel and wheedle advantages from the President and other members …

The Raid By Moncada: A Prelude To The Sack Of Rome, Florentino Garza

History ETDs

On the twentieth of September, 1524, Hugo de Moncada, a general of the Holy Roman Empire, launched a surprise attack upon the Sacred City of Rome. The assault was an important episode in a rivalry that had dominated the European scene during the early part of the sixteenth century--that of the Holy Roman Empire, Charles V, and "The Most Christian King," Francis I. The success or failure of the attack was bound to be important to all of Europe, yet the most significant outcome was unforeseen and had the most far-reaching consequences. The success of Moncada symbolized the downfall of …

The Pan Americanism Of Joaquim Nabuco, Robert Gordon B. Kenyon

History ETDs

Pan Americanism, or mutual understanding and co-operation between the various American countries, can be traced to the sympathy of the United States for the Spanish colonies in their struggles for independence. Since then Pan Americanism has been advanced as an international policy set up by statesman from both North and South America. With the exception of the Monroe Doctrine, none of these attempts was of lasting or great import until the establishment of the Pan American Union in 1889, at the First International American Conference, in Washington. The Second International Conference, in Mexico City in 1901-1902, was relatively ineffective. Joaquim …

Censo De Mujeres En Las Novelas Más Importantes De Armando Palacio Valdés, Julia Vicente

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

Las mujeres cuyo censo he anotado ofrecen toda clase de particularidades pero en general pertenecen a la clase media española. No son muy ricas ni muy pobres. No son excepcionales en ningún sentido. Son mujeres corrientes que se encuentran diariamente en la vida.

La biografía del autor muestra también un género de vida sin accidentes. Nada hey en su vida inesperado o terrible. Palacio Valdés pasó a lo largo de su existencia por experiencias que le permitieron conocer, en la clase media a la que partenecen, casi todos los caracteres de mujer.

Speech Characteristics Of The Rio Grande Valley, New Mexico, Donald I. Dickinson

English Language and Literature ETDs

The purpose of this study is to show characteristics of the speech of the Rio Grande Valley in New Mexico. It is hoped that the material will be suitable for inclusion in a future Linguistic Atlas of the U.S. and Canada. Because it was done with this as its goal, the Atlas principles have been followed in the use of preliminary check-lists for plotting key communities, the Atlas worksheets for discovering lexical and phonological variations and the Atlas fine phonetic symbols with which these variations were recorded.

The Novels Of James T. Farrell; A Study In Social Forces And The Individual, Maurice M. Rosenthal

English Language and Literature ETDs

In any study of the works of James T. Farrell one is impressed by the author's relentless attack on man's traditional institutions and his furious loathing of the barren waste of life that characterizes certain strata of society. In a very real sense Mr. Farrell is exorcising the evil spirits of his blighted youth in southside Chicago, but in a more significant respect he is doing penance for us all. "Here," he seems to say to society, "is your bastard spawn. What will you do with it?"

Mr. Farrell, however, is no crusader. He considers his mission only that of …

The Novels Of Harold Frederic, George A. Small

English Language and Literature ETDs

I do not intend to defend the obviously untenable thesis that Frederic was a great writer and is not appreciated because of the nature of his subject matter. The author of The Damnation of Theron Ware seldom shows any sign of genius. What Frederic does, and often in a rather workmanlike manner, is tell a story of small-town and country people in upper New York state. In his early works, Seth's Brother's Wife and The Lawton Girl, the author writes about things he knows and has done. The works written about the same time as the two mentioned have …
