This thesis consists of three personal essays and a postface, in part experiments in genre, mode, and structure, and in large part explorations of the meanings of specific places in culture and on the self-definition of the observer-writer, the first essay being set in Florida and centered at Disneyworld; the second consisting of fragments of observations along the route from St. Augustine to Washington, D.C., and ending with a brief fiction; the third, a speculative/anti-speculative rumination over many things, including meaning, death, faith, and enshrinement, and set in Illinois, Missouri, and South Africa; and the postface a theoretical/descriptive theoretical defense of the thesis, all of which is abstracted in this abstract.

The Correlation Program of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints During the Twentieth CenturyRose, Jerry 01 January 1973 (has links) (PDF)
Within recent years the priesthood correlation program of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has received significant emphasis from the leaders of the Church, so much so that it has been regarded by some as a new forceful program for the perfecting of the Saints. However, research reveals that the principles of priesthood correlation have always been a part of the restored Church. The purpose of this thesis is to write a history of the correlation program of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with particular emphasis on the period 1908 to February 1972.

A Study to Determine What Caused Students to Discontinue Attending the Burley Seminary Before Obtaining A Fourth-Year Certificate 1961-1965Salisbury, Charles Durrell 01 January 1965 (has links) (PDF)
It was the writer's purpose to determine the reason students discontinued seminary before obtaining a fourth-year certificate from the Burley L. D. S. Seminary between the years 1961-1965. In addition to this, means of helping to solve the problems of the students who discontinued seminary were sought. Questionnaires were sent to 92 students who had discontinued seminary; a questionnaire was also given to 61 students who were still in seminary. The results of these questionnaires were tabulated by the Brigham Young University Data Processing Service. Of the 92 students who discontinued seminary and received questionnaires, 66 (70 per cent) were returned.

The Effect of The Book of Mormon Diglot Reader: A Study of the Vocabulary Acquisition, Reading Comprehension, and the Reduction of Negative Affective Variables in MissionariesSilver, Melinda 01 January 1997 (has links) (PDF)
This study addresses the following questions; 1) How does reading The Book of Mormon Diglot Reader compare with reading the Spanish translation of The Book of Mormon in terms of degree of anxiety, frustration, and discouragement experienced by the reader? 2) Will the missionaries using the Diglot Reader experience a greater increase in the amount of Book of Mormon vocabulary acquired as compared with the vocabulary increase experienced by the missionaries who only read from the standard Spanish translation of The Book of Mormon? 3) Does the use of the Diglot Reader increase the missionaries' ability to understand sentences from The Book of Mormon in Spanish compared to the missionaries who do not use the Diglot Reader?

Thomas Bullock: A Man Doing His DutySimon, Jerald F. 01 January 1988 (has links) (PDF)
Thomas Bullock was intimately associated with leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for more than twenty-five years. He served twenty-one years in the Church Historian's office and also clerked in many city, county, and territorial positions, acting as scribe, clerk, and personal secretary to Joseph Smith Jr., Brigham Young, Willard Richards, and the Twelve Apostles. During this time he was privy to important events of late Nauvoo and early Utah Mormon history. His was a critical role in not only recording the history, but also in the gathering and preservation of historical documents. As a clerk Bullock frequently referred to himself as a man who was "doing my duty," and he surely fulfilled in his life the revelatory injunction: "It is the duty of the Lord's clerk, whom he has appointed, to keep a history, and a general record of all things that transpire in Zion." This essay will focus on how well Thomas Bullock fulfilled the duties he was given, particularly as they relate to his contributions to Mormon historiography.

A Personality Comparison of Students Born in the Mormon Church and Those Who Have Been ConvertedSmith, Grant Broadbent 01 January 1958 (has links) (PDF)
The study of personality and its many facets is one of several significant areas in the field of psychology, which is being studied in detail. Personality, as a construct, is not often well defined and less often well understood, since it is a composite of such varied factors as perception, motivation, learning, culture and so on. Because of this present lack of clarity it must and will be discussed, written about, and experimented with until a clear, operant definition, acceptable to psychology, has been devised.

Formal Reporting Systems of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, 1830-1975Smith, Dennis H. 01 January 1976 (has links) (PDF)
Since its organization, the Church has kept records of its members and their Church activity. The foremost means of gathering this data has been printed report forms. This thesis traces the history of formal reports used by the Church and emphasizes information on membership and vital data as well as activity in Priesthood and auxiliary organizations. Financial reports of organizations and individual persons, as well as personalized confidential reports and minutes of meetings were not used. The thesis analyzes the type of information called for rather than the statistical figures themselves.

Reasons For Non-Enrollment and Low Attendance in LDS Early Morning Seminary at Minneapolis-St. PaulSmith, Wayne P. 01 January 1975 (has links) (PDF)
This study sought to determine why only about one half of the potential Latter-day Saint students in grades nine through twelve in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area enroll in early morning seminary each year, why so many students attended poorly or discontinued part way through 1973-74, and what effect the increase in the price of gasoline had on attendance. About 40 percent of the potential students and their parents, all eight of their bishops, and all thirteen seminary teachers responded to a mailed questionnaire.The main reasons for non-enrollment were inactivity in the LDS Church, disinterest in seminary, and difficulty finding dependable rides because of distance. The main reasons for low attendance were losing interest in seminary, partly due to lack of teacher interest out of class; being too tired, partly because of the early seminary hour; and transportation problems, due to distance and lack of parental support.

Saturday's Women: Female Characters as Angels and Monsters in Saturday's Warrior and ReunionSmith, Nola Diane 01 January 1992 (has links) (PDF)
Using theories of feminist criticism as explained by Sandra Gilbert and Susan Gubar, the study concludes that both Saturday's Warrior, a "home literature" style play, and Reunion, a more artistically challenging play, reflect repressive cultural images of women. Both plays cast female characters into the roles of passive Angel, domestic Angel/Monster, and active Monster.
