Arkansas And The Death Penalty: Responses To Governor Winthrop Rockefeller's Commutations Of Fifteen Death Sentences In 1970, Andrea Lynn Ringer
Arkansas And The Death Penalty: Responses To Governor Winthrop Rockefeller's Commutations Of Fifteen Death Sentences In 1970, Andrea Lynn Ringer
Theses and Dissertations
As his final act as governor, Winthrop Rockefeller commuted the sentences of all death row inmates in Arkansas in 1970. This action spurred hundreds of letters from around the world. More than three hundred letters, which represented the vast majority of responses, were positive and congratulatory. However, Rockefeller received nearly one hundred uncomplimentary letters as a result of this action. The letters offered insight to various movements and events as many people connected the commutations to developments throughout the world. The letters fell into the following categories: political responses, religious responses, racial responses, social responses, victim-based responses, and responses to …

Drugs, Devices, And Desires: A Problem-Based Learning Course In The History Of Medicine, Sarah Levitt, Anne Mckeage, P. K. Rangachari
Interdisciplinary Journal of Problem-Based Learning
Problem-based learning (PBL) is well suited for courses in the history of medicine, where multiple perspectives exist and information has to be gleaned from different sources. A student, an archivist, and a teacher offer three perspectives about a senior level course where students explored the antecedents and consequences of medical technology. Two active learning strategies were used: (a) PBL to explore the historical basis of procedures used to diagnose, prevent and treat a single disease, tuberculosis, and (b) a concurrent inquiry-based component that permitted individual exploration of other medical technologies and demonstration of learning through diverse options (book reviews, conversations, …

Heroes, Saints, And Gods: Foundation Legends And Propaganda In Ancient And Renaissance Rome, Danielle L. Marsh
Heroes, Saints, And Gods: Foundation Legends And Propaganda In Ancient And Renaissance Rome, Danielle L. Marsh
Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations
The paper investigates the way in which Roman leaders, during the classical and Renaissance periods, used foundation myths as a form of persona l propaganda. It shows that men like Julius Caesar used the supposed founders of the city to promote their own claims to power through art and architecture. It not only explains how men like Augustus would build upon this by including not only the city’s founders, but also Caesar to legitimize their own claims though art, architecture, and literature. And final ly, it provides a look into how the princes of the Renaissance—especially the papal princes—took ancient, …

The Ottoman Empire In The First World War: A Rational Disaster, Matthew David Penix
The Ottoman Empire In The First World War: A Rational Disaster, Matthew David Penix
Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations
The Ottoman Empire's entry into the First World War in October 1914 represents a break in over a century of diplomacy in the Middle East. Previous study of late Ottoman politics has focused more upon the European states with imperial interests in the Middle East and has not adequately explained why the weak Ottoman state decided to enter the war. This study utilizes both British and German diplomatic documents, along with published secondary works, to reframe the Ottoman entry into the war in a way that highlights Ottoman agency and illuminates the internal and external constraints faced by Ottoman statesmen. …
Art Meets Science! Get Over It . . ., Stephen Nowlin
Art Meets Science! Get Over It . . ., Stephen Nowlin
The Transdisciplinary STEAM+ Journal
The news headline, when such projects garner attention, usually goes like this – Art Meets Science! Or perhaps Art Merges with Science! or maybe they combine, or art collides with science, or they fuse, join, bond, or unite. And ‘art’ in the phrase usually precedes ‘science’, perhaps because their integration is more typically initiated from the art side of the equation. But whatever the order of the two terms, and whatever verb is used to link them, the tenor of the declaration is typically the same – this is a story worth reporting on, it announces, because …

Deutschland Unsere Mutter, Columbia Our Bride: German-America In The Progressive Era, Taylor Holmes
Deutschland Unsere Mutter, Columbia Our Bride: German-America In The Progressive Era, Taylor Holmes
Pursuit - The Journal of Undergraduate Research at The University of Tennessee
In many histories of American involvement in the First World War, the anti-German hysteria that exploded in the United States is often trivially attributed to the reality that America had declared war on Germany and the consequent propaganda the war effort generated. This, however, overlooks the significant presence of anti-German sentiment prior both to the outbreak of the First World War and American entry into the war. Precedent to and coincident with U.S. military intervention in Europe was the domestic cultural struggle between an ascendant and dominantly Anglo-American Progressive ideology and a cultural pluralism that German-American ethnic pride embodied. The …
