Description

The Kansas University Quarterly, Vol. I, No. 2, October 1892 by Various is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The volume contains a collection of scholarly articles focusing on diverse topics, including geometry, cultural studies, and specific examinations of Kansas settlements in terms of dialect and foreign influence. This particular issue reflects the academic endeavors associated with Kansas University during that period, highlighting both mathematical explorations and sociolinguistic observations relevant to the state’s demographic evolution. At the start of the publication, it introduces an article titled Unicursal Curves by Method of Inversion by H. B. Newson, which summarizes the mathematical findings of a class project in modern geometry. The paper employs geometric inversion to analyze various properties of conics and their corresponding cubic curves, offering new theorems through classroom discussions and collaboration. Additionally, the opening segment features a section promoting dialect studies in Kansas, calling attention to the rich tapestry of linguistic diversity shaped by various foreign settlements and encouraging wider participation in documenting this sociolinguistic landscape.
