Section XIII: Political Liberalism and Nationalism, 1815-1871

The first half of the nineteenth century saw the emergence of two secular faiths which became key features of Western thought: political liberalism and nationalism- Their tenets were not wTiblly ne^ As~early as the lourteenth century when medieval feudalism was giving way to the rising national state, Marsiglio of Padua (c. 1275 - c, 1343) had announced that political authority was properly lodged in the people. The seventeenth century had produced in John Locke (1632-1704) a man whose ideas on government later became a wellspring for political liberalism. The same era also found nationalism accentuated by colonial rivalries and mercantilist …

Indigenous Philosophy In The Valley Of Mexico, John F. Newcomer

Philosophy ETDs

This study has been undertaken in the hope of helping to open new avenues of research in both philosophy and anthropology, avenues that have heretofore been largely overlooked. It has used as an example the pre-Conquest culture-complex of the Valley of Mexico. It is not intended to be an exhaustive exposition of every aspect of that complex, for that would take it out of the realm of philosophy and too far into that of anthropology. It is rather an examination of the salient features of Aztec culture in a philosophical light. It begins with a discussion of primitive philosophy in …

Humane Education, Lillian Maude Mathewson

The purpose of this thesis is to present an analysis of the developement and present status of humane education in the United States, its administration, aims, and methods. The field of humane education has this peculiarity, that while it has gained almost universal recognition as an important element in the child’s experience, it has as a general rule been provided not by the school itself but by an outside agency in cooperation with the school authorities. The reference is to the work of numerous state and city humane societies who have carried on as a part of their activities a …

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 …

Logics: Subverbal, Verbal, And Superverbal: An Approach To Evolutionary Psychology, Selden Smyser

All Faculty Scholarship for the College of Education and Professional Studies

Let us attempt in thirty minutes to trace the million-year history of man's blundering yet ever more successful efforts to learn to think, to solve problems, to cooperate, construct and create. If we can trace the important steps by which the man-animal has become man and has developed thought patterns for the discovery of the truth he needs to guide his action and to solve his problems, we shall in so doing indicate the essential nature of a phylogenetic psycho-logic of importance for a fundamental science of education, i.e. a science of the evolution of human intelligence.

Euthanasia Or Mercy Killings, George Joseph Nicoud

Bachelors’ Theses

In this modern and changing world new problems are constantly arising and older ones are being dispensed with. Man has to adapt himself almost daily to changing and more complex situations. The world has advanced to such an extent that in this present generation we are known as "human machines" rather than human beings. Men are worked until they drop off from the strain or they work until they are broken, decrepit old men, no longer a use to anybody and a burden to almost everybody. As our modernity progressed, so also did conventions and ideas. Ideas of morals changed. …

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 …

Religious Experience In The Light Of Current Psychology., Elwyn Judson Trueblood 1896-1963

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Psychology is receiving a new emphasis in the modern age. The subject of human consciousness, always fascinating, is now claiming our attention as never before. When we endeavor to link psychology with religion, the charm is greatly increased; for then we are dealing with two themes, rather than one, in which mankind has an abiding interest -- the human consciousness and the human soul. Thus, the psychology of religion has grown to be one of the most popular studies of our generation. Indeed, an eminent authority in this field ventures the opinion that the theoretical as well as the practical …

Some Philosophical Implications Of Behaviorism., Harold Wayland Tribble

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Psychology is the middle ground between philosophy and science. Philosophy deals with the interpretation of facts, with, a view to determining their ultimate cause. It is the search for knowledge of general principles--elements, powers, causes and laws--as explaining facts and existences. Science is systematized knowledge of facts, laws and proximate causes, gained and verified by exact observation. Science is the effort to show how laws operate, and how certain facts affect other facts. Philosophy seeks to show why laws operate as they do, and to discern what is the first fact. Science deals with the sequence of events and effects …

A Comparative Study Of The Stoicism Of Seneca And Marcus Aurelius, Helen Caroline Boemer

Bachelors’ Theses

Socrates it was who taught men to think aright, to love knowledge and goodness, to realize the worth of friendship, courage and wisdom. To him as a consequence many subsequent philosophers went for their ideas. Hence after his death we find that many schools of philosophy came into existence. Besides the schools of Plato, Aristotle and Epicurus, there arose also the Cynic School of Antisthenes and the Megaric School of Euclid, all of which incorporated some of the fundamental doctrines of Socrates or contained elements of pre-Socratic systems, modified by the influence of their common master.

The Family. The Evolution Of The Family As Illustrated And Explained By Herbert Spencer Is False, Desmond T. Mccarthy

Bachelors’ Theses

The family is the foundation of society and the state. As such it possesses a prominent position in our sphere of things. The family in a philosophical discussion may be observed from many points of view; ethical, sociological, biological, religious and economical. Each of these views may be equally interesting. They are all important and excellent papers could easily be written on any one of them. By research and investigation into these various topics personal information and interest are increased. In what ever view is taken, it is sometimes difficult to remain in one's own field without transgressing to another …
