Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Foreign Language Equipment of 2325 Doctors of Philosophy' presents a comprehensive statistical and analytical study of the linguistic proficiencies and requirements of doctoral scholars in the early 20th century. Authors George H. Betts and Raymond A. Kent investigate the extent to which PhD holders utilized foreign languages in their research and professional lives, offering a unique window into the academic standards of the era.The work surveys over two thousand graduates to determine the practical value of language requirements in higher education. It addresses critical questions regarding the necessity of specific languages in various fields of study and the actual mastery achieved by candidates. This volume serves as an essential historical document for educators, sociologists, and historians of education interested in the evolution of the doctoral degree and the shifting priorities of global scholarship. By examining the linguistic 'equipment' of these scholars, the book provides valuable insights into the intersection of language study and specialized research during a formative period in university history.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
