Book Synopsis Germans in America by : Walter D. Kamphoefner
Download or read book Germans in America written by Walter D. Kamphoefner and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-11-08 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a fresh look at the Germans—the largest and perhaps the most diverse foreign-language group in 19th century America. Drawing upon the latest findings from both sides of the Atlantic, emphasizing history from the bottom up and drawing heavily upon examples from immigrant letters, this work presents a number of surprising new insights. Particular attention is given to the German-American institutional network, which because of the size and diversity of the immigrant group was especially strong. Not just parochial schools, but public elementary schools in dozens of cities offered instruction in the mother tongue. Only after 1900 was there a slow transition to the English language in most German churches. Still, the anti-German hysteria of World War I brought not so much a sudden end to cultural preservation as an acceleration of a decline that had already begun beforehand. It is from this point on that the largest American ethnic group also became the least visible, but especially in rural enclaves, traces of the German culture and language persisted to the end of the twentieth century.
Book Synopsis Americana Germanica by : Paul Ben Baginsky
Download or read book Americana Germanica written by Paul Ben Baginsky and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1930s, Paul Ben Baginsky, a member of the German Department faculty of Brooklyn College, was working on a book then called "The Development of the Notion of America in Germany" when it was stopped by the lack of bibliographic data to work from. It became clear that no more progress could be made without more adequate bibliographical foundations, and that's exactly what Baginsky set out to do. Based on, but not limited to, the extensive holdings of the New York Public Library, this book aims at being a comprehensive bibliography of the German publications dealing with any aspect of America which were published before 1800. This includes not only books, but articles, essays, and book reviews. Each entry is arranged chronologically according to the publication date. These listings are made highly accessible by the addition of extensive and detailed subject, author, and title indexes. A new introduction and a selective bibliography have been added by Dr. Don H. Tolzmann, one of the foremost German-American scholars today. Anyone seeking information on Germans in American history before 1800 should examine this work, not only for topics pertaining to German immigration and settlement, but any possible historical topic, including esoteric subjects, such as forestry, science and medicine. This book is an essential reference for colonial German-American history.
Book Synopsis German-American Achievements by : Don Heinrich Tolzmann
Download or read book German-American Achievements written by Don Heinrich Tolzmann and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a concise survey of the role that America's largest ethnic group, the German-Americans, has played in American history from the 17th century to the present. The term "German-American" in this volume refers to immigrants and their offspring from Germany, Austria, Switzerland and other German-speaking areas of Europe. Hence, the term "German" is used in a linguistic, cultural and ethnic sense to cover the sum of German-speaking immigrants and their descendants. This study is divided into six parts. Part I, "Immigration and Settlement" traces German-American history from the earliest beginnings into the present time, while Parts II and III demonstrate the role German-Americans have played in "Preserving the Union" and "Building the Nation." Part IV gives an overview of the German-American experience. Part V discusses German-American Heritage Month, and Part VI is a select bibliography. Also includes map that shows percentages of German-Americans in each of the United States, a census table and a fullname index.
Book Synopsis Citizens in a Strange Land by : Hermann Wellenreuther
Download or read book Citizens in a Strange Land written by Hermann Wellenreuther and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2013-08-05 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Citizens in a Strange Land, Hermann Wellenreuther examines the broadsides—printed single sheets—produced by the Pennsylvania German community. These broadsides covered topics ranging from local controversies and politics to devotional poems and hymns. Each one is a product of and reaction to a particular historical setting. To understand them fully, Wellenreuther systematically reconstructs Pennsylvania’s print culture, the material conditions of life, the problems German settlers faced, the demands their communities made on the individual settlers, the complications to be overcome, and the needs to be satisfied. He shows how these broadsides provided advice, projections, and comment on phases of life from cradle to grave.
Book Synopsis The German-American Encounter by : Frank Trommler
Download or read book The German-American Encounter written by Frank Trommler and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2001 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Germans, the largest immigration group in the United States, contributed to the shaping of American society and left their mark on many areas from religion and education to food, farming, political and intellectual life, Americans have been instrumental in shaping German democracy after World War II. Both sides can claim to be part of each other's history, and yet the question arises whether this claim indicates more than a historical interlude in the forming of the Atlantic civilization. In this volume some of the leading historians, social scientists and literary scholars from both sides of the Atlantic have come together to investigate, for the first time in a broad interdisciplinary collaboration, the nexus of these interactions in view of current and future challenges to German-American relations.

Book Synopsis German History in Modern Times by : William W. Hagen
Download or read book German History in Modern Times written by William W. Hagen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-02-13 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This history of German-speaking central Europe offers a very wide perspective, emphasizing a succession of many-layered communal identities. It highlights the interplay of individual, society, culture and political power, contrasting German with Western patterns. Rather than treating 'the Germans' as a collective whole whose national history amounts to a cumulative biography, the book presents the pre-modern era of the Holy Roman Empire; the nineteenth century; the 1914–45 era of war, dictatorship and genocide; and the Cold War and post-Cold War eras since 1945 as successive worlds of German life, thought and mentality. This book's 'Germany' is polycentric and multicultural, including the multinational Austrian Habsburg Empire and the German Jews. Its approach to National Socialism offers a conceptually new understanding of the Holocaust. The book's numerous illustrations reveal German self-presentations and styles of life, which often contrast with Western ideas of Germany.
