Is Man's Natural Desire For Perfect Happiness A Convincing Argument For Immortality, Felix Frank Taterczynski Apr 1935

Is Man's Natural Desire For Perfect Happiness A Convincing Argument For Immortality, Felix Frank Taterczynski

Bachelors’ Theses

The argument with which I shall concern myself in this treatise is not of isolated interest, but one which at one time or another is bound to occupy the thought of every thinking person. My aim here is not to construct a new original philosophical doctrine of my own, but to construct or offer an interpretation, on well-founded and established principles, of a doctrine which is hidden in the minds of every rational being. As a passing remark I say that I am not writing this thesis as a philosophic expert, because I am well aware of the fact that …

Immortality In Cicero, Kathryn Collins May 1934

Immortality In Cicero, Kathryn Collins

Bachelors’ Theses

It is the purpose of this thesis to show that Cicero had a carefully developed belief in immortality. Since there is little opportunity in constructing a thesis of this kind to set forth any new or startling data concerning the subject, there is left to the writer only the originality of thought and presentation. So much commentary has been written on Cicero that it would be impossible to contact all of it . It may be said, however , that since Cicero has been known throughout the ages mostly as an orator and statesman, less has been written concerning his …

“A Study Of The Occurrence Of Common Numerals In Types Of Contemporary American Magazines”, Dorothy A. Schwartz Apr 1934

“A Study Of The Occurrence Of Common Numerals In Types Of Contemporary American Magazines”, Dorothy A. Schwartz

Bachelors’ Theses

During class discussions in the years 1932 and 1933 the questions were often advanced as to whether the common or elementary form of arithmetic as taught in American schools and expressed by the use of numerals was not stressed unduly, in view of its importance or influence on the future life of the student. It seemed to the writer that the answer to at least a part of this question might be found in a survey of the actual usage or occurrence of arithmetical forms as expressed in numerals.

The Barter Exchanges In Milwaukee - 1933, Elin Seaholm Apr 1934

The Barter Exchanges In Milwaukee - 1933, Elin Seaholm

Bachelors’ Theses

Milwaukee, like other cities, spent huge sums of money to aid the unemployed during the depression through the medium of the Outdoor Relief. To alleviate this increasing burden on the taxpayers as well as to help the unemployed two barter exchanges were organized by means of which the unemployed might meet their own and one another's needs through their own efforts, that is by means of barter or direct exchange of commodity for commodity. The two exchanges, the Unemployed Labor and Commodity Exchange, Inc., and the Commodity Exchange, Inc. were organized upon the same principle as similar exchanges in the …

The Ethics Of Peter Abelard With Introduction And Translation, William Farrell Hurley Apr 1934

The Ethics Of Peter Abelard With Introduction And Translation, William Farrell Hurley

Bachelors’ Theses

It appears after exhaustive search that no complete English translation of Abelard's Ethics is available. Accordingly, not all students of philosophy have been able to use the primary source to study the system of ethics introduced by Abelard. The secondary sources or commentaries in English in most instances do not offer sufficient material for a complete understanding and appreciation of the innovation made by Abelard in the field of ethics. To furnish a translation of his Ethics is therefore the fundamental purpose of this thesis.

Perception And Extra-Mental Reality, John W. Mulroy Mar 1934

Perception And Extra-Mental Reality, John W. Mulroy

Bachelors’ Theses

In seeking an answer to the problem of Epistemology, namely, that of establishing the validity of human knowledge, we are confronted with many and various questions to be answered concerning the source of knowledge and its reliability. We are also confronted with many answers to the problems and many of those are exact opposites. Our problem is to find the most logical and practical solution.

Philosophical Mysticism As Epistemological Method, Glenn Negley Jan 1934

Philosophical Mysticism As Epistemological Method, Glenn Negley

Graduate Thesis Collection

The general problem of the definition of mysticism may be approached in either of two ways.  We might assemble the elements of all types and method of mysticism, and, by the use of the critical method, arrive thereby at a description and definition of the mystical experience in its most general sense; or we might develop a restricted, specific definition by ignoring certain aspects of that type of experience which might, in a broad, general sense, be called mystical.

The Ethical Criteria Apparently Assumed As Valid By Various Economic Theories Of Wages, Herbert L. Abbott Jan 1934

The Ethical Criteria Apparently Assumed As Valid By Various Economic Theories Of Wages, Herbert L. Abbott

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

It is eminently logical that the bare first word of this essay should be as to the philosophical motive that makes it appear interesting and fruitful. If we let two circles represent, respectively, the fields of ethics and economics, it seems probable that they will somehow intersect, providing an area common to both. It is this presumptive borderland of ethics and economics that we intend to study under conditions of restricted method and scope. It should be confessed at once that our efforts will be necessarily and rigorously theoretical, our essay is one of partial clarification of the ethical character …
