Edmund J. James and the Making of the Modern University of Illinois, 1904-1920

Edmund J. James and the Making of the Modern University of Illinois, 1904-1920

sidottu
In 1904, Edmund J. James inherited the leadership of an educational institution in search of an identity. His sixteen-year tenure transformed the University of Illinois from an industrial college to a major state university that fulfilled his vision of a center for scientific investigation. Winton U. Solberg and J. David Hoeveler provide an account of a pivotal time in the university’s evolution. A gifted intellectual and dedicated academic reformer, James began his tenure facing budget battles and antagonists on the Board of Trustees. But as time passed, he successfully campaigned to address the problems faced by women students, expand graduate programs, solidify finances, create a university press, reshape the library and faculty, and unify the colleges of liberal arts and sciences. Combining narrative force with exhaustive research, the authors illuminate the political milieu and personalities around James to draw a vivid portrait of his life and times. The authoritative conclusion to a four-part history, Edmund J. James and the Making of the Modern University of Illinois, 1904–1920 tells the story of one man’s mission to create a university worthy of the state of Illinois.

John Bascom and the Origins of the Wisconsin Idea

John Bascom and the Origins of the Wisconsin Idea

J. David Hoeveler

University of Wisconsin Press
2017
nidottu
In the Progressive Era of American history, the state of Wisconsin gained national attention for its innovative economic and political reforms. Amidst this ferment, the ""Wisconsin Idea"" was popularized?the idea that a public university should improve the lives of people beyond the borders of its campus.During his term as governor (1901?1906), Robert La Follette routinely consulted with University of Wisconsin researchers to devise groundbreaking programs and legislation. Although the Wisconsin Idea is often attributed to a 1904 speech by Charles Van Hise, then president of the University of Wisconsin, David Hoeveler argues that it originated decades earlier, in the creative and fertile mind of John Bascom.A philosopher, theologian, and sociologist, Bascom (1827?1922) deeply influenced a generation of students at the University of Wisconsin, including La Follette and Van Hise. Hoeveler documents how Bascom drew concepts from German idealism, liberal Protestantism, and evolutionary theory, transforming them into advocacy for social and political reform. He was a champion of temperance, women's rights, and labor, all of which brought him controversy as president of the university from 1874 to 1887. In a way unmatched by any of his peers at other institutions, Bascom outlined a social gospel that called for an expanded role for state governments and universities as agencies of moral improvement.Hoeveler traces the intellectual history of the Wisconsin Idea from the nineteenth century to such influential Progressive Era thinkers as Richard T. Ely and John R. Commons, who believed university researchers should be a vital source of expertise for government and citizens.

Creating the American Mind

Creating the American Mind

J. David Hoeveler

Rowman Littlefield Publishers
2007
nidottu
The nine colleges of colonial America confronted the major political currents of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, while serving as the primary intellectual institutions for Puritanism and the transition to Enlightenment thought. The colleges also confronted the most partisan and divisive cultural movement of the eighteenth century—the Great Awakening. Creating the American Mind is the first book to present a synthetic treatment of the colonial colleges, tracing their role in the intellectual development of early Americans through the Revolution. Distinguished historian J. David Hoeveler focuses on Harvard, William and Mary, Yale, the College of New Jersey (Princeton), King's College (Columbia), the College of Philadelphia (University of Pennsylvania), Queen's College (Rutgers), the College of Rhode Island (Brown), and Dartmouth. Hoeveler pays special attention to the collegiate experience of prominent Americans, including Jefferson, Hamilton, and Madison. Written in clear and engaging prose, Creating the American Mind will be of great value to historians and educators interested in rediscovering the institutions that first fostered American intellectual thought.

Starting off with the artist's top winning pencil drawings from 2010 through 2012, this autobiography style book allows the reader an opportunity to not only learn the process it took to complete most of his drawings (created between 2008-2013) which are shown within these pages, but offers a personal look into who the artist is as a man. From portraits to figure drawings, David J. Vanderpool shares how simple pencil lines can be used to create masterfully crafted drawings - all while working through obstacles he would later encounter as an artist.

Closing with several fan-favorite drawings from his other top selling books, this book offers his most completed works to date. VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED: This book contains adult male nudity. NOTICE: This book is not a "how-to book" but rather as one review noted, "An Art Exhibit And Fan Book". The inside pages are not glossy.

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2021 im Fachbereich Philosophie - Philosophie der Gegenwart, Note: 1,7, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit t M nchen (Fakult t f r Philosophie), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Frage nach dem Wesen des Bewusstseins ist eine der zentralen und auch verbl ffendsten Fragen der Menschheit, die wahrscheinlich seit der Zeit gestellt wird, als der Geist im Menschen erwacht ist und nach Erkenntnis rief. In der t glichen Erfahrung ist das Bewusstsein allgegenw rtig und subjektive Erlebnisse sind auf so einer direkten Art und Weise gegeben, dass niemand unter normalen Umst nden deren Existenz in Frage stellen w rde. Die Neurowissenschaften versuchen seit langer Zeit erfolglos, ein Korrelat des Bewusstseins im menschlichen Gehirn zu finden, und es ist fraglich, ob das jemals gelingen kann. Ren Descartes, sah das Bewusstsein gar nicht im Gehirn verortet, sondern postulierte eine res cogitans, eine eigene Substanz des denkenden Geistes, unabh ngig von der res extensa, der K rperwelt. David J. Chalmers, mit dessen 1996 erschienenen Buch "The Conscious Mind - In Search of a Fundamental Theory" diese Bachelorarbeit sich haupts chlich besch ftigt, fragt nach dem subjektiven Charakter des Bewusstseins und dessen Status in einer vor allem naturwissenschaftlich, physikalisch gepr gten Welt. Im Verlauf dieser Arbeit wird sich zeigen, dass die Existenz des Bewusstseins von Chalmers nicht in Frage gestellt wird, aber es schwierig ist, Bewusstsein zu fassen, da es eben nicht aus der Perspektive der dritten Person erkl rt werden kann. Mit Hilfe u. a. des Zombiearguments zeigt er, dass consciousness nicht global logisch ber dem Physikalischen superveniert, nicht auf das Physikalische reduzierbar ist und das der Physikalismus falsch ist. Er beschreibt einen "Naturalistic dualism", einen speziellen Eigenschaftsdualismus der consciousness als grundlegendes Prinzip "over and above" des Physikalismus betrachtet.
