Book Universities and Their Sons  Vol  5

Download or read book Universities and Their Sons Vol 5 written by Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Universities and Their Sons, Vol. 5: History, Influence and Characteristics of American Universities With Biographical Sketches and Portraits of Alumni and Recipients of Honorary Degrees Elgin Adelbert Angell, Lawyer, was born in the Angell Settlement, so-called, near Forestville in Chautauqua county, New York, August 14, 1849, the son of Cyrus D. and Lucina (Shepard) Angell. He traced his descent directly from Roger Williams of Rhode Island, through his daughter, and from Thomas Angell, one of the Crown Commissioners for the settlement of Rhode Island. His preparatory school work was done in the common schools of Forestville and at Adelbert Academy in Belleville, Ontario, and he entered Harvard in 1869, graduating with high honors in the Class of 1873. He then began a business career in the oil fields of Western Pennsylvania with his father who had been a large and influential operator there for many years, but soon tiring of this entered Harvard Law School in November 1873, and supporting himself by tutoring, principally in mathematics, graduated with the usual degree of Bachelor of Laws in 1875. Entering the law office of General T. W. Sanderson of Youngstown, Ohio, he was soon after admitted to the Bar, and in 1877 came to Cleveland and quickly became known for his thorough legal training and general abilities. In 1884 he formed a law partnership with J. H. Webster of that city, with whom he continued until his death, the firm being first known as Webster & Angell and afterwards as Webster, Angell & Cook. In 1893, at the request of many of the leading citizens of the city and northern Ohio, Mr. Angell was chosen by the Governor, now President McKinley, as one of four forming a Commission to investigate the system of taxation of the state and devise some new plan which would meet the demand of the present day and afford relief from the inequalities and faults of the antiquated code then in force. During the next year he gave his entire time to this work, in meetings throughout the state, in investigation of local complaints, and in the taking of testimony of countless manufacturers, corporations, capitalists and farmers. He was chosen by his associates to prepare the report of this very important commission and produced one of the most valuable monographs ever published upon the subject. It was at once recognized by students of economics as a most valuable contribution to political science and won for its author an enviable reputation. Many articles upon the subject followed published by the Cleveland Chamber of commerce and in pamphlet form by the author, upon different phases of the problem, including a very profound study in the Yale Review of February 1897. Mr. Angell as a lawyer loved the equity side of the practice. He was obliged in 1889 to investigate the novelty of a patent and defend its alleged infringement in order to protect his financial interests as a part owner therein; and his brilliant success in this contention encouraged him in undertaking other patent cases until at the time of his death he had attained therein a reputation second to none in the state, and had adopted this as his special work. For many years Mr. Angell belonged to the Union Club, the Rowfant Club and Country Club of Cleveland, and the Harvard Club of New York, and just preceding his death had been elected to the University Club of New York and had aided in the preliminary organization of the University Club of Cleveland. He was also a very active and valued member of the Chamber of Commerce, the Bar Association, the Ohio Society of the Sons of the American Revolution and the Archaeological Institute of America. He never held political office, but was a strong and active Republican. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The University in Society  Volume I

Download or read book The University in Society Volume I written by Lawrence Stone and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-29 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this book seek to establish a true sociology of education. Their primary concern is the relationship between formal education and other social forces through the ages. Thus, the book combines the history of higher education with social history in order to understand the process of historical change. To ascertain the responses of the universities to such broad social changes as the Renaissance, the Reformation, and the Industrial Revolution, the authors ask such questions as: who were the students and how many were there? how did they get to the university and why did they come? how did they spend their time and what did they learn? what jobs did they fill and how did what they learned help them in later life? how have faculty members viewed their roles over the years? Lawrence Stone is Dodge Professor of History at Princeton University, Chairman of the History Department, and Director of the Shelby Cullom Davis Center for Historical Studies. Originally published in 1974. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.

This book was released on 1988 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first of a four volume History of the University of Cambridge, under the General Editorship of Professor C.N.L.

Book The Son of God Beyond the Flesh

Download or read book The Son of God Beyond the Flesh written by Andrew M. McGinnis and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-07-31 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The so-called extra Calvinisticum-the doctrine that the incarnate Son of God continued to exist beyond the flesh-was not invented by John Calvin or Reformed theologians. If this is true, as is almost universally acknowledged today, then why do scholars continue to fixate almost exclusively on Calvin when they discuss this doctrine? The answer to the “why” of this scholarly trend, however, is not as important as correcting the trend. This volume expands our vision of the historical functions and christological significance of this doctrine by expounding its uses in Cyril of Alexandria, Thomas Aquinas, Zacharias Ursinus, and in theologians from the Reformation to the present. Despite its relative obscurity, the doctrine that came to be known as the “Calvinist extra” is a possession of the church catholic and a feature of Christology that ought to be carefully appropriated in contemporary reflection on the Incarnation.
