This document examines the life and string pedagogical contributions of German-American violinist, composer, and pedagogue Julius Eichberg (1824-1893). Biographical information about Eichberg is presented to demonstrate his expertise in the areas of education and performance, as well as to provide some context for his compositions. As little has been written about Eichberg and his contributions to music and music education, much of the information gathered about his life and musical background was found in primary sources in the form of scrapbooks compiled by Eichberg and his daughter. These scrapbooks are housed in the Special Collections at the Boston Public Library. Three of Eichberg's intermediate-level chamber works were selected for the dual purposes of examining their pedagogical worth and editing and clarifying the fingerings and bowings for use by current string students. The American String Teachers' Association Certificate Advancement Program guidelines and the Christina Placilla/Kenneth Law String Quartet grading guidelines were used in conjunction with one another to determine the appropriate placement of the three selected Eichberg works in the extant chamber repertoire. The document includes both facsimiles of the original works transferred from microfilm and the newly edited parts.

It is the aim of Part I of this thesis, the Introduction, to introduce David Zvi Hoffmann (1843-1921) in his capacity of a Bible scholar and a critic of 19th century German biblical criticism. Ample attention will be devoted to Hoffmann's own background, his German environment as well as that of Wellhausen. This will cover Sections I and III of the Introduction respectively. In order to be able to place Hoffmann's work within the proper context, Section II of the Introduction will explore the history of the general critical reception of the Hebrew Bible in the various cultures and eras where it played a role as well as its interaction with intellectual developments. Part II contains an annotated translation of Hoffmann's attack on Wellhausen's "documentary hypothesis."

No. of bitstreams: 1 DISSERTAÇÃO Bruno Bentzen Aguiar.pdf: 612020 bytes, checksum: 6f17bcdf8d18b27a6c1f6caa61ed5791 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2014 / As Grundgesetze der Arithmetik de Frege e o livro que cont em a vers~ao nal do sistema formal desenvolvido para provar a sua tese de que aritm etica e redut vel a l ogica. A m de evitar a indetermina c~ao levantada pelo problema Julius Caesar, a mais fundamental quest~ao los o ca encontrada pelo seu logicismo, Frege e levado a de nir os n umeros como extens~oes de conceitos, e, com isto, introduzir o Axioma V em seu sistema para governar a no c~ao de percurso de valores. Por em, no par agrafo 10 do livro, Frege encontra um novo problema de indetermina c~ao, a saber, o fato de que o Axioma V n~ao determina a refer^encia dos nomes de percurso de valores. Para resolver este problema, Frege executa a identi ca c~ao trans-sortal, que e a identi ca c~ao dos valores de verdade com percursos de valores de fun c~oes particulares. Entretanto, porque a identi ca c~ao n~ao nos fornece uma determina c~ao t~ao completa quanto a que dever amos esperar de seu famoso princ pio da completa determina c~ao (ela n~ao permite decidir se Julius Caesar e um percurso de valores), estudiosos como, principalmente, Dummett (1981) eWright (1983), t^em a rmado que Frege foi, a nal, incapaz de resolver o problema Julius Caesar em uma vers~ao persistente. O objetivo desta disserta c~ao se assenta em duas vertentes. Primeiro, queremos propor uma interpreta c~ao, sugerida por Greimann (2003), para conciliar a identi ca c~ao trans-sortal de Frege com o seu comprometimento com o princ pio da completa determina c~ao. Segundo, queremos concluir, acompanhando Ru no (2002), que n~ao h a problema Julius Caesar para percurso de valores.
