Le rôle de Lomer Gouin dans l’histoire du Québec est loin d’être négligeable puisqu’il tient les rênes du pouvoir provincial durant 15 ans. C’est aussi sous ses différents mandats que l’économie québécoise accentue son industrialisation et que l’urbanisation s’accélère. Sa pensée politique, inspirée du libéralisme, reste encore toutefois mal définie. Celle-ci se trouve aux carrefours de différentes tendances idéologiques de son époque. En effet, il occupe une position privilégiée dans la tendance libérale de l’époque : gendre du premier ministre nationaliste Honoré Mercier; un premier mandat comme député marqué par les querelles entre son chef, Félix-Gabriel Marchand, et l’Église catholique; relations avec Godfroy Langlois, un libéral progressiste. De plus, il doit faire face à une vague nationaliste qui agite le Québec et le Canada. Sa conception du développement du Québec dévoile la culture libérale modérée dans toute sa vigueur au début du XXe siècle.

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770-1831) et Friedrich Carl von Savigny (1779-1861) ont été des contemporains, des compatriotes et des collègues à l'Université de Berlin, le premier y enseignant la philosophie du droit, le second y enseignant le droit romain. Mais ils ont aussi été des adversaires. C'est leur affrontement qui constitue le thème de la présente thèse. Un affrontement opposant le rationalisme de Hegel à l'historicisme de Savigny. Entre l'École spéculative du droit de Hegel et l'École historique du droit de Savigny, ce fut la guerre. En surface, c'est sur le front juridique que les deux adversaires ont livré bataille. À preuve, ces trois conflits: la Querelle de la réception, la Querelle de la possession, puis la Querelle de la codification. Toutefois, l'objectif de cette thèse est de montrer que la guerre entre Hegel et Savigny a été menée, d'abord et avant tout, sur le front politique. Face aux événements de leur temps - la Révolution française, l'Empire napoléonien, les Guerres de libération de 1813-1814, la Restauration, l'émergence du nationalisme allemand -, Hegel et Savigny ont adopté des positions complètement différentes. Face au contexte culturel de leur temps, - la diffusion d'une pensée contre-révolutionnaire héritée d'Edmund Burke (1729-1797) et la naissance d'un romantisme politique -, ils ont emprunté des voies complètement opposées. Leurs visions respectives de l'Allemagne en ce début du XIXe siècle étaient si divergentes que toute réconciliation entre le philosophe et le juriste fut impossible. / Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770-1831) and Friedrich Carl von Savigny (1779-1861) were contemporaries, fellow-countrymen and Berlin University colleagues, with Hegel teaching philosophy of law and Savigny teaching Roman law. However, they were adversaries. Their confrontation, setting Hegel's rationalism up against Savigny's historicism, constitutes the subject of the present thesis. Hegel's school of thought, speculative in its approach, and Savigny's Historical School of Law were at war. This state of strife was most manifest in the feuds pertaining to judiciary issues, as attested by the three disputes - Rezeptionsstreit, Besitzstreit and Kodificationsstreit - bearing respectively on reception (of Roman law), possession (of property) and codification (of law). However, the goal here is to show that this conflict's most significant theatre was the political front. Before the events of their time - the French Revolution, the Napoleonic Empire, the Wars of Liberation, the Restoration, emerging German nationalism -, Hegel and Savigny each adopted completely different positions. Indeed, in responding to the cultural context of the day - the dissemination of counter-revolutionary thought, whose source could be traced to Edmund Burke (1729-1797), and the political Romanticism which was then taking shape - each one followed an entirely opposite path. Their respective visions of early 19th-century Germany were so divergent as to render any reconciliation between the philosopher and the jurist inconceivable.

Unlike other Confederate armies at the conclusion of the Civil War, General Edmund Kirby Smith's Trans-Mississippi Army disbanded, often without orders, rather than surrender formally. Despite entreaties from military and civilian leaders to fight on, for Confederate soldiers west of the Mississippi River, the surrender of armies led by Generals Robert E. Lee and Joseph E. Johnston ended the war. After a significant decline in morale and discipline throughout the spring of 1865, soldiers of the Confederate Trans-Mississippi Department chose to break-up and return home. As compensation for months of unpaid service, soldiers seized both public and private property. Civilians joined the soldiers to create disorder that swept many Texas communities until the arrival of Federal troops in late June.

The Electoral College and Jacksonian Democracy are two subjects that have been studied extensively. Taken together, however, little has been written on how the method of choosing presidential electors during the Age of Jackson changed. Although many historians have written on the development of political parties and the increase in voter participation during this time, none have focused on how politicians sought to use the method of selecting electors to further party development in the country. Between 1824 and 1832 twelve states changed their methods of choosing electors. In almost every case, the reason for changing methods was largely political but was promoted in terms of advancing democracy. A careful study of the movement toward selecting electors on a general ticket shows that political considerations in terms of party and/or state power were much more important than promoting democratic ideals. Despite the presence of a few true reformers who consistently pushed for a constitutional amendment guaranteeing that all states used the same method, the conclusion must be that politics and party demanded a change. This study relies heavily on legislative records at both the state and national level and newspapers throughout t the country from the period. Beginning with a brief history of the office of the president and an overview of the presidential elections prior to 1824, the author then carefully analyzes the elections of 1824, 1828, and 1832, as well as the various efforts to amend the constitutional provisions dealing with the Electoral College. Particular emphasis is placed on political factions at the state level, the development of the Democratic and National Republican parties nationally, and how each party used and at time manipulated the electoral process to secure a favorable outcome for their candidates.

"This thesis is an attempt to study the Texas question in its setting with particular emphasis on the sectional ramifications of the issue. It is not an attempt to document the diplomatic negotiations which led to annexation. It is not a attempt to prove that it was the Texas issue which irreconcilably divided the North and South, but it is an effort to assess the importance of the Texas question as a factor in the sectional struggle, by studying the origin, struggle, and climax of the effort to annex Texas to the United States. The chief concern here is with politics and sectionalism in the United States in the years, 1835-1846, and the way in which they affected, or were affected by the question of Texas annexation. Only incidentally, and insofar as they affected the matter under consideration, is there any concern with affairs and events in Texas." --leaf v.

Nowadays he is usually associated with lhe Camphill movement of curativa education and its architecture, several studies on religion, lhe biodynamical agricultura and lhe anthroposophical medicina. The aim of this research is to analyse Steiner's ideas concerning lhe four temperaments, taking into account its historical context, trying to check lhe similarities and differences between Steiner's conceptions and lhe concept of lhe four temperaments which is present in some writings belonging to lhe ancient Hippocratic-Galenic tradition. This dissertation contains an introduction and five chapters. Chapter 1 discusses some features of lhe ancient theory of lhe four humours, lhe theory of lhe temperaments and their developments. Chapter 2 providas a general overlook of Steiner's context and deals with his background, career, professional interests as well as some of lhe possible influences he received. Chapter 3 studies Steiner's conception of lhe four temperaments as presented in his work Das Geheimnis der menschlichen Temperamenteas well as olhar works by Steiner.

This study lead to lhe conclusion that although there are some similarities between lhe two conceptions in some respects, there are algo wide differences between them. For example, in both cases lhe terminology is lhe sarna. However, whereas in lhe Hippocratic-Galenic tradition, lhe temperament is produced by lhe predominance of one of lhe four humours (blood, yellow bife, phlegm and black bife), in Steiner's conception it is produced by lhe predominance of one of lhe four components of man (the physical body, lhe astral body, lhe ethereal body and lhe selt).

Atualmente seu nome está associado ao movimento Camphill de educação curativa, sua arquitetura, vários estudos sobre religião, à agricultura biodinâmica e à medicina antroposófica. . O objetivo principal desta pesquisa é analisar as idéias de Steiner acerca dos quatro temperamentos, dentro de seu contexto histórico, procurando verificar até que ponto existem semelhanças e diferenças entre as concepções de Steiner e o conceito dos quatro temperamentos que faz parte da antiga tradição hipocráticogalênica. Esta dissertação contém uma introdução e cinco capítulos. O capítulo 1 discute alguns aspectos da teoria humoral, da teoria dos temperamentos e seus desdobramentos. O capítulo 2 dá uma idéia geral do contexto de Steiner e trata de sua formação, carreira, interesses profissionais, bem como sobre algumas possíveis influências sobre seu pensamento. O capítulo 3 apresenta a concepção dos temperamentos em Steiner que aparece na obra Das Geheimnis der menschlichen Temperamente e suas relações com outros estudos do autor. Discute também a aplicação da concepção dos quatro temperamentos à educação. O capítulo 4 compara as idéias de Rudolf Steiner acerca dos quatro temperamentos com a concepção dos quatro temperamentos na tradição hipocrático-galênica. O capítulo 5 apresenta algumas considerações finais sobre o assunto. Este estudo levou à conclusão de que, embora existam algumas semelhanças entre as duas concepções em relação a alguns pontos, existem também grandes diferenças. Por exemplo, em ambas concepções a terminologia empregada para se referir aos tipos de temperamentos é a mesma. Porém, enquanto na tradição hipocrático-galênica os temperamentos eram determinados pela predominância de um dos quatro humores (sangue, bílis negra, bílis amarela e fleuma), na concepção de Steiner eles eram determinados pela predominância de um dos quatro membros constitutivos do homem (corpo físico, corpo etéreo, corpo astral e o eu). Além disso, verifica-se que a concepção dos quatro temperamentos de Steiner constitui uma ponte de integração entre saberes pedagógicos e os saberes sobre a constituição humana
