The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

in this issue. . .

THIS NUMBER of THE MIDWEST QUARTERLY moves our horizons out beyond any previous measure. While our first two issues have contained solid material on a variety of subjects from a diversity of minds, the basic criticism of them has been that the Social Science area was somewhat overrepresented.

Bachelors’ Theses

A central symbol in the work is a blue flower, which has become an icon for German Romanticism.

Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller (1759-1805) was a German writer, primarily known as a dramatist, poet, and literary critic.
