This thesis investigates the theology of the leading Southern Baptist theologian of the mid-nineteenth century, James P. Boyce. Chapter 1 examines the history of Reformed soteriology among Baptists to the time of Boyce. He is introduced with a biographical sketch, highlighting some of his theological influences. Chapter 2 is an analysis of Boyce's soteriology, primarily his views concerning total inability, unconditional election, and effectual calling. Chapter 3 examines in detail those influences that shaped Boyce's soteriology. Attention is given both to his contemporaries as well as his theological ancestors. Chapter 4 offers thoughts on what happened to Boyce's soteriology in Baptist life in the years that followed. The thesis concludes with a discussion of the contemporary value of his theology. / This item is only available to students and faculty of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.

The English musician William Boyce was known as an organist for the cathedral as well as the Chapel Royal, a composer of both secular and sacred music, a director of large choral festivals, and the editor of Cathedral Music, the finest eighteenth-century edition of English Church music. Among Boyce's compositions for the church are many examples of verse and solo anthems. Part II of this thesis consists of an edition of one verse and three solo anthems selected from British Museum manuscript Additional 40497, transcribed into modern notation, and provided with a realization for organ continuo. Material prefatory to the edition itself, including a biography, a history of the verse and solo anthem from the English Reformation to the middle of the eighteenth century, a discussion .of the characteristics of Boyce's verse and solo anthems, and editorial notes constitute Part I.

The global population can, based on income per capita be divided into three socioeconomic segments of a pyramid where the bottom segment is labeled: base/bottom of the pyramid (BOP). The BOP market has a collective buying power estimated to five trillion dollar per year. The BOP-segment may seem lucrative but it is however risky and challenging to enter a market characterized by poverty. One of the risks that are pointed out in research is minimal local marketing expertise. A key to succeed in a BOP-market is finding innovative ways of building awareness for a product. Earlier research have pointed at local partners as important for creating that awareness. This study aimed to find how companies have enabled and used non-traditional partners as a communication channel. The findings of the study indicate that companies have used enabling efforts and that CSR approaches and NGO partnerships had been important for enabling the communication channel as well as important for delivering a trustworthy message for all investigated cases
