Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mirage, Vol. 7 Juniors, and'the preparation of a class-day play by the Seniors. It is in accordance with the former of these customs that the present Junior class issues the current volume of the mirage. It has been the aim of the editors to show college life, to point out the relations of the students to each other, to the University, and to the faculty; and to make plain the faults and merits of the institution as viewed by the student body. The editors have not considered themselves a self-appointed board of correction, whose duty it is to supervise the general administration of the University. Neither have they thought it advisable to ignore those things which the students, generally, consider as detrimental to their best interests. The editors hold that it is the purpose of an annual to bring about a better understanding between the students on the one side and the faculty, trustees and alumni on the other; and to this end they have directed their efforts. Many events of importance to the University mark the period that has intervened since the publication of the '96 mirage. Dr. John, whose merit as a man and scholar is recognized, not only in the University, but throughout this and adjoining states, has seen fit to resign the presidency, and has entered the lecture field. Sorry as the students are to lose the services of Dr. John, yet it is with, if possible, even greater respect and confidence that they turn to his successor, Dr. Gobin. His mild but firm discipline, his enthusiasm in student affairs, his belief in honor, which placed a student's wordabove circumstantial proof, coupled with his strong administration of the University's affairs, have won the love and confidence of every loyal student. Under Dr. Gobin's administration there has been the most complete union of faculty and students that has been seen in the University in a decade. Knowing, as the students do, that they have the confidence of their president and teachers, they have borne in quiet the irksome rules which a Board of Trustees has imposed upon society and social events at De Pauw; rules well fitted to a graded school, but scarcely applicable to men and women with years and ability sufficient to give them a place as thinkers in the ranks of high er education. We regret that these rules, once banished to the realm of the obsolete, along with the Sunday-afternoon lecture and the text book recitation, have been disinterred, and, with the addition of others still more ancient, again thrust upon us.

Download or read book The Clock Mirage written by Joseph Mazur and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tour of clocks throughout the centuries—from the sandglass to the telomere—to reveal the physical, biological, and social nature of time What is time? This question has fascinated philosophers, mathematicians, and scientists for thousands of years. Why does time seem to speed up with age? What is its connection with memory, anticipation, and sleep cycles? Award-winning author and mathematician Joseph Mazur provides an engaging exploration of how the understanding of time has evolved throughout human history and offers a compelling new vision, submitting that time lives within us. Our cells, he notes, have a temporal awareness, guided by environmental cues in sync with patterns of social interaction. Readers learn that, as a consequence of time’s personal nature, a forty-eight-hour journey on the Space Shuttle can feel shorter than a six-hour trip on the Soyuz capsule, that the Amondawa of the Amazon do not have ages, and that time speeds up with fever and slows down when we feel in danger. With a narrative punctuated by personal stories of time’s effects on truck drivers, Olympic racers, prisoners, and clockmakers, Mazur’s journey is filled with fascinating insights into how our technologies, our bodies, and our attitudes can change our perceptions. Ultimately, time reveals itself as something that rides on the rhythms of our minds. The Clock Mirage presents an innovative perspective that will force us to rethink our relationship with time, and how best to use it.

Download or read book The Wild Adventures of Hopalong Cassidy 7 Western Classics in One Volume written by Clarence Mulford and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2024-01-15 with total page 1457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hopalong Cassidy is a cowboy hero created by the author Clarence Mulford, who wrote a series of popular short stories and many novels based on the character. In his early writings, Mulford portrayed the character as rude, dangerous, and rough-talking. He had a wooden leg which caused him to walk with a little "hop", hence the nickname. The character—as played by movie actor William Boyd in films adapted from Mulford's books—was transformed into a clean-cut, sarsaparilla-drinking hero. Sixty-six popular films appeared. The Coming of Cassidy and Others Hopalong Cassidy Bar-20 Days Buck Peters, Ranchman The Bar-20 Three Tex Clarence E. Mulford (1883–1956) created Hopalong Cassidy in 1904 while living in Fryeburg, Maine, and the many short stories and 28 novels were adapted to radio, feature film, television, and comic books, often deviating significantly from the original stories, especially in the character's traits. But more than just writing a very popular series of Westerns, Mulford recreated an entire detailed and authentic world filled with characters drawn from his extensive library research.

Download or read book Classics For All written by Dunstan Lowe and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-01-14 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classical culture belongs to us all: whether as academic subject or as entertainment, it constantly stimulates new ideas. In recent years, following Gladiator’s successful revival of the ‘toga epic’, studies of the ancient world in cinema have drawn increasing attention from authors and readers. This collection builds on current interest in this topic, taking its readers past the usual boundaries of classical reception studies into less familiar—and even uncharted—areas of ancient Greece and Rome in mass popular culture. Contributors discuss the uses of antiquity in television programmes, computer games, journalism, Hollywood blockbusters, B-movies, pornography, Web 2.0, radio drama, and children’s literature. Its diverse contents celebrate the continuing influence of Classics on modern life: from controversies within academia to ephemeral pop culture, from the traditional to the cutting-edge. The reader will find both new voices and those of more established commentators, including broadcaster and historian Bettany Hughes, Latinist Paula James, and Gideon Nisbet, author of Ancient Greece in Film and Popular Culture. Together they demonstrate that rich rewards await anyone with an interest in our classical heritage, when they embrace the diversity and complexity of mass popular culture as a whole.
Download or read book The Mirage 1910 Classic Reprint written by Depauw University and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mirage, 1910 It is not of coeducation, however, in this restricted sense that I wish to speak. Coeducation literally means something more than this: it means the education of people together, or in groups. Really this is the one true kind of education. To be sure, the scholar must have his moments when he withdraws to his study and to his laboratory. To be sure, there are some things that can only befound as men work as individuals. After all, however, we live in a world of persons. The results of the most secluded study are of value out in the world at large, and the man who is going to serve the world at large must have a sympathetic understanding of his fellows. We used to hear a great deal said in praise of the self - made man. A keen critic once remarked, however, that the trouble with the self - made man is that he is too apt to worship his maker. There is large force in this criticism. The man whose training has been away from his fellows does not see things in true perspective, and his perspective fails simply because he judges too much by himself. He does not go to the outer edge of the circle and look back toward the center. In college a man is not apt to remain self-centered for lollg. If he does not see his own faults speedily his fellow-students are apt to point therri out for him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
