Richard Ii And History, Gertrude Mulaney Dec 1937

Richard Ii And History, Gertrude Mulaney

Bachelors’ Theses

In the fourteenth century Edward the Third of England,

and his Queen Philippa of Hainault became the parents of

children who were to stir England and the Continent into a

hot box for centuries to come. Although an able leader on

the battlefield, and a great promoter of England’s welfare

at home and abroad, Edward’s personal life was not exemplary.

He associated with corrupt men and women; he indulged in great extravagances, and carried them to impossible excesses. Near the end of his life his government fell into disorder and unfortunately Edward was incapable physically and mentally of correcting any …


The Curriculum And A World Point Of View, Harold E. Barto Dec 1937

The Curriculum And A World Point Of View, Harold E. Barto

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies

If a spirit of true international friendship is to be inculcated, we must be taught to recognize the achievements of other peoples; be made to realize that their problems are our problems; and, not least of all, be shown that fundamentally we are more alike than different. Teachers are being asked to educate the new generation to the new social order. However, their efforts both by precept and example will be futile so long as they are bound by a curriculum which is too narrow in scope to meet the demands of modern trends.

The Age Of Louis Xiv, Floyd Ronzani Apr 1937

The Age Of Louis Xiv, Floyd Ronzani

Bachelors’ Theses

The illustrious age of Louis XIV has always been a source of vast material for those historians who take interest in dealing with it. Voluminous works have attempted to portray the many phases of human activity that is identified with the period of the Grand Monarch. From the French Court, at the time the Absolute Monarch was destined to supremacy, there came progressive measures, especially in the humanitarian spheres of Politics, Art and Literature, all of which contributed to the adventure of releasing creative ideas from the great minds of the Age. With evidence of brilliancy in the period, the …


The Fall And Rise Of Poland (1772-1918), Jerome Joseph Pelkowski Apr 1937

The Fall And Rise Of Poland (1772-1918), Jerome Joseph Pelkowski

Bachelors’ Theses

Poland's impatience during the period of her decline had made her the tool of foreign powers, a pawn in the game of European diplomacy. The part that Russia played in the Seven Years Nar and the War of the Polish Succession made her the predominant power in Poland. Empress Catherine the Second of Russia knew how to make the most of that position. Of great ability and boundless ambition, it was her dream, by the conquest of Poland, Sweden and Turkey, to make of the Baltic and Black Seas Russian lakes. The Seven Years War, she thought, had put the …

The French Revolution And Its Effect On 18th Century Europe, Ralph Renzel Apr 1936

The French Revolution And Its Effect On 18th Century Europe, Ralph Renzel

Bachelors’ Theses

The France of the old regime was a very great and ancient structure -in building which fifty generations had been engaged for more than fifteen centuries. Each of these generations had left its mark upon it, always adding to the work of the past and hardly ever pulling down or removing anything. Moreover, its plan was confused, its styles were incongruous, and its parts lacked proportion. Some portions had been abandoned and threatened to fall into ruin; others were inconvenient; others were too luxurious. But, taking it all in all, the total effect was rich, the facade was imposing, and …

The Black Prince In France, Walter Charles Kitzerow Apr 1935

The Black Prince In France, Walter Charles Kitzerow

Bachelors’ Theses

When in 1337 the One Hundred Years' War no longer contented itself with casting dark shadows before, but actually reached its inception, he who was to become the most prominent figure in the conflict was, as yet, a lad of only eight years. Very likely no one but the boy himself, later to become known as the Black Prince, entertained the thought that he would play a conspicuous part in the struggle.


Irish Learning And Its Effect On The Carolingian Renaissance, Jane Donald Apr 1935

Irish Learning And Its Effect On The Carolingian Renaissance, Jane Donald

Bachelors’ Theses

When the Roman Empire disintegrated and its learning was, for the time, buried by an avalanche of barbarism, Ireland alone of the many provinces which had shared in its commerce and learning, was undisturbed. Ireland had a mission; it was to be the haven in which classical learning was kept alive and it was to be the means, when the time was ripe, of carrying this culture throughout Europe.
