Requisite Qualities Of Accountants (Bookkeepers) According To German Literature: 1723-1963, Detlef Karl Reeker Oct 1987

Requisite Qualities Of Accountants (Bookkeepers) According To German Literature: 1723-1963, Detlef Karl Reeker

Accounting Historians Notebook

Like any educational endeavor, accounting education must have objectives. The objectives of German accounting education have been developed since the 18th century in accordance with German accounting practice. Because accounting practice has changed in response to emerging accounting problems, a corresponding change in accounting educational objectives also might be expected. This paper examines 18th through 20th century German literature for evidence of changes in accounting educational objectives. It focuses on objectives relating to the students' development of personal virtues and work habits rather than those relating to the development of technical knowledge and skills. The term virtues is used to …


Spectator Of Accounting History, Peter G. Boys Oct 1987

Spectator Of Accounting History, Peter G. Boys

Accounting Historians Notebook

Previous research on the history of accounting has concentrated mainly on two sources of material : treatises on accounting, in particular, texts on double-entry bookkeeping, and extant accounting and business records. Much less has been written on the less technical and more social aspects of the history of accounting. The aim of this article is to consider a somewhat different and potentially rich source of material. It looks at just one eighteenth century literary source and shows that study of similar works can set the early development of accounting into its social context. The source is not totally new to …

Accounting Historians Notebook

I am honored to be able to serve you as President of the Academy for 1988. Unlike in many organizations, the position of president is not just an honorary position, but a working one. However, I have some idea of the nature of the work ahead as I have served the Academy for over a dozen years in a variety of positions including participation on the membership committee, education committee, and board of trustees. The overall objectives of my administration will center around the following areas: 1. Oral and video histories. 2. Research methodology. 3. Sydney World Congress. 4. Membership. …

Mea Culpa -- Mea Maxima Culpa!, Ernest Stevelinck

Accounting Historians Notebook

I have received a copy of a somewhat harsh letter addressed to the editor of The Accounting Historians Notebook, Dale L. Flesher, who might now regret having printed a biographic article about Albert Dupont. Mr. James W. Jones of Baltimore, a very careful reader of The Notebook and a knowledgeable accounting historian, pointed out, quite correctly, that the International Accountants Congress was held in Amsterdam in 1926. Not in 1929 as was erroneously stated in the article.
