The Midwest Quarterly; Vol. 2 No. 1, James W. Vander Zanden, Richard C. Welty, Nita Laing, Lewis A. Bayles, James Woodress, Theodore M. Sperry

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

in this issue. . .

WITH this number, THE MIDWEST QUARTERLY begins its second year of publication. Everything considered, the editors face the future with confidence. Subscription renewals have been coming in all summer, and even more important, unsolicited manuscripts from all over have been arriving with increasing frequency.

This first issue of Volume II contains articles on a variety of subjects of rather strong current interest. The editors have taken into account several incontestable facts in selecting these discussions for publication. This issue appears a short month before the American presidential election. This month marks the 125th anniversary of …

The Midwest Quarterly; Vol 1. No. 4, Judy Bounds Coleman, R. D. Lakin, Preston Slosson, Rebecca Patterson, David G. Barry, Lewis Turco, Charles Burgess

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

in this issue. . .

WITH this number, THE MIDWEST QUARTERLY rounds out Volume I and in effect reaches a kind of maturity. Like the April issue, this fourth number moves our horizons further out by broadening the scope of material published. Once more the editors are able to offer a fairly wide variety of intellectual fare for our discerning readers. While the April issue saw us embark for the first time on the wine-dark sea of verse, this issue carries us further with contributions from two poets who write in the modem mood. And, manuscripts already in hand indicate, …

The Midwest Quarterly; Vol. 1 No. 3, David G. Barry, Jerome Cushman, Stuart Levine, Reed Schmickle, Clay P. Malick, Charles E. Guardia

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. Even a casual check of our contents will bear out this charge. Therefore, it is with considerable satisfaction and even relief that the editors offer this issue-with only one contribution from the Social Sciences. The scope of subject matter is broader in this issue than it has …

FEW AMERICANS who have not visited Canada, our closest friend and ally to the north, have much appreciation for the fact that Canada is a separate and distinct sovereign nation, broad in expanse, magnificent in her natural endowments, and peopled with far more than red-coated members of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police. It was the editor's privilege to visit the provinces of British Columbia and Alberta in the summer of 1957 as director of a field trip whose personnel were basically Kansans, many of them school teachers in the Sunflower State. It was little short …

Even before Vice President Richard M. Nixon had announced his mission to Russia, the editors of THE MIDWEST QUARTERLY had been fortunate in securing the manuscript of the lead article in this issue. With interest in the U.S. S. R. as high as it currently is, this rather charming autobiographical report of the life and hard times of a Russian peasant seems extremely appropriate for publication. In plain, unvarnished language it gives a painfully detailed picture of the grim problems its author encountered as his country passed from revolution to world war and into the …

Theodore Roosevelt - Preacher Militant His Political Philosophy As Proclaimed In His Speeches, Evelyn Hanshaw

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The age of chivalry with its color and romance is remembered usually as a story-book existence which is pleasant and exciting to read about. Forgotten too often are the ideals and the splendid code of conduct which actuated the heroic deeds. It cannot be said that all knights wore admirable and incorruptible, but out of their period, embodied in its literature, has come to us a way of life. Sir Galahad, St. George, Arthur--whichever one is called to mind-- each want through life fighting relentlessly, sometimes foolishly, but always gloriously against impossible odds as he pursued his ideal. Courageous and …

The Significance Of Andrew Jackson’S Politics, Leo W. Mack

Bachelors’ Theses

This thesis is to deal with the political life of Andrew Jackson, therefore little consideration will be given to his boyhood and youth. Of Jackson’s adolescence little la known except that he was afforded only a meagre education. Of exceptionally poor parentage Jackson secured his early legal education in a nomadic fashion. He did not confine his studies to the tutoring of one individual but rather, as his family changed their residences, he entered new offices. History has not left us the names of any one of his legal advisors but we know that he was admitted to the bar …
