Download or read book A New Life written by Anne Lisbeth Olsen and published by Aalborg, Denmark : Danes Worldwide Archives in collaboration with the Danish Society for Emigration History. This book was released on 1994 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In letters to their homeland, Danes who emigrated to North America from 1842 to 1946 here give vivid, personal impressions of how they began life anew, far from the familiar surroundings of home. Passages selected by the authors from among more than a thousand emigrant letters provide a unique glimpse of life on the American prairie as well as on Chicago's notorious South Side. The narratives are presented in a series of themes, ranging from the crossing of the Atlantic to an inside look at the United States. Although few regretted the decision to emigrate, nearly all suffered pangs of homesickness, and many attempted to imbue their children with a sense of "Danishness." These Danes of the past come alive as they describe both successes and failures in their own words. It is the hope of the Danes Worldwide Archives that "A New Life" will help to strengthen the historical identity of Danish-Americans"--Back cover.

Download or read book Mor and Me written by Lise Greene and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sixty-one diaries and countless blue air letters tell the story of Ina's life, beginning at age 15: the occupation of her country, Denmark, by the Nazis; her postwar work with the interrogation of prisoners in Copenhagen and at the International Military Tribunal for War Crimes in Germany; a whirlwind courtship with an American; and her new life in the United States. After Ina dies, her four adult children yearn to know more about their mother's life pre-parenthood as well as their own childhoods. But the diaries and letters are all in Danish, and none of them can read or speak their mother's tongue. This book is the true story of one daughter who decides to live in Denmark and learn the language. A diarist and letter-writer like Mor (her mother), Lise emails family and friends with vivid, poignant, honest, and humorous descriptions of her outward and inward journeys through an unforgettable year and a half.
Book Synopsis In English and American Literature a Bibliography Edited for the Danish American Association (Classic Reprint) by : J. Christian Bay
Download or read book In English and American Literature a Bibliography Edited for the Danish American Association (Classic Reprint) written by J. Christian Bay and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from In English and American Literature a Bibliography Edited for the Danish American Association A survey of these titles will show that a large number of general and special subjects within the range of Danish history, culture, social conditions, literature, etc., has been fully and exhaustively treated in English, while many topics, equally important, yet arc waiting for an adequate elucidation. These titles demonstrate that some of the greatest treasures of our literature have been translated into English, - and that, on the other hand, some of the typical and most renowned books in Danish still await translation, or even a critical comment. Saxo is found in translation, with a good critical apparatus in English. Of the works of Holberg, Ewald, Ingemann, Martensen, etc., etc., certain works are available in translation. Two of our most remarkable and typical authors, however, viz., Grundtvig and Kierkegaard, are comparatively unknown in English literature. Blicher never found a translator. The list shows that the English language group reflects fairly well our history and our public affairs up to and including the period of 1864, and that the recent developments in Denmark have been treated quite sporadically and largely in journalistic form. Danish economics, agriculture, school methods, commerce, etc., have received some attention in late years, commensurate with the increasing communication between Denmark and its Western connections. The literary material surrounding Hans Christian Andersen and Bertel Thorvaldsen, the two most international of Danish names in the past, is very extensive. Arts, crafts, architecture, and industrial products seem less known, through literature, than esthetics and tourist topics. Ever since the war of 1657 - 1658, Danish politics have precipitated literary documents in English: the great events of 1801, 1807, the Struensee period, the periods of 1848 and 1864; all have left their evidence in English literature. This bibliography will indicate that most of the literature involved in our inquiry has been produced from a personal initiative. Without doubt, the activity in translating Danish literature into English, will attain to a state of organized effort.

Book Synopsis The Shoestring Letters - A Tribute to the Immigrant by : Edgar Madsen
Download or read book The Shoestring Letters - A Tribute to the Immigrant written by Edgar Madsen and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Retrieved from under a thatched roof in Denmark, long-forgotten letters inspire this illustrated account of the Danish-American immigrant community's history, heritage and grit. One letter, written on board [of] the ship bringing a young family to America in 1928, tells what the voyage was really like. Other letters give firsthand accounts of life in Denmark and America. Letters from the Great Depression lament hopes dashed by broken economics on both sides of the Atlantic. Trials and triumphs of World War II are recalled, including Denmark's finest hour in 1943. Over here, immigrants sent their sons and daughters to war while joining hands to relieve post-war suffering over there. After fulling embracing the American way of life, one immigrant offers a touching tribute to all who ventured to America from their homeland. This book concludes with his rendition, in verse, of Hans Christian Anderson's Tin Soldier fairy tale, and four Scandinavian songs of faith."--Page 4 of cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking back, a lot has happened since Dan graduated from high school. He joined the Navys Ready Reserve, went to sea, and visited many med ports. One of his buddies that he went ashore with on liberty was a civilian working on a book about the USS HUNT DD-674, going by the name Andrew Jackson. Dan finished his two years of active duty and got out of the active service to go to college at JU as a business major. Unbeknown to Dan, Professor Wade (a.k.a. Andrew Jackson) worked undercover there as political science professor at JU. Dan entered college, and two and a half years later, President Kennedy was elected in November of 1960 and took office in January of 1961. In March 61, Russia became the first country to put a man in space. Our president responded with a rousing speech that challenged Russia by saying that we would put the first man on the moon and would do it in ten years. He asked all Americans to ask not what our country could do for them, but what we could do for our country.
