Book Review: The Correspondence Of Heinrich Melchior Muhlenberg, Volume I, 1740-1747., Don Heinrich Tolzmann Nov 1994

Book Review: The Correspondence Of Heinrich Melchior Muhlenberg, Volume I, 1740-1747., Don Heinrich Tolzmann

Swiss American Historical Society Review

Representing· the first volume of the English translation of the correspondence of the Patriarch of American Lutheranism, this work contains 69 items to and from HMM in the time period of 17 40-4 7. Although accessible in a recent German edition (Die Korrespondenz. Heinrich Melchior Mühlenbergs: Aus der Anfangszeit des deutschen Luthertums in Nordamerika. Berlin: Walter de Gruyter, 1986- ), this work is nonetheless a significant contribution to our understanding of the German-speaking element of the 18th century, which will be extraordinarily useful to the general reader as well as to scholars.


Book Review: A Very Civil War: The Swiss Sonderbund War Of 1842., Sabine Jessner Nov 1994

Book Review: A Very Civil War: The Swiss Sonderbund War Of 1842., Sabine Jessner

Swiss American Historical Society Review

The Sonderbund war of 1847 was, as the author convincingly demonstrates, "a very civil war." Unlike the later North American sectional conflict, Switzerland's regional strife lasted but twenty-five days and cost fewer than a hundred lives. Yet these statistics belie the rancor that divided the opposing parties, the more than 150,000 men under arms on both sides, and the very imminent danger of international involvement.

Benjamin Franklin And Heinrich Zschokke, Donald H. Crosby Nov 1994

Benjamin Franklin And Heinrich Zschokke, Donald H. Crosby

Swiss American Historical Society Review

History has not seen fit to couple the names of Benjamin Franklin and Heinrich Zschokke. To attempt to do so at this 1ate date, then, may well suggest dilettantism or even charlatanry. What can be said in defense of what might seem to be a whimsical coupling, one which flies in the face of time-tested historical judgment? To proceed logically: one begins, as an American, with a study of colonial history before, during, and after the Revolution, where one very quickly encounters the towering figure of Benjamin Franklin. Then, as a student of Swiss history and culture, one turns to …


A Swiss Phenomenon: Bauernmalerei (Peasant Painting), Walter Angst Nov 1994

A Swiss Phenomenon: Bauernmalerei (Peasant Painting), Walter Angst

Swiss American Historical Society Review

Ever since, some 50,000 years ago, the paleolithic Cro-Magnon aborigine of Altamira (a large cave near Santander in Northern Spain) painted magnificent pictures of wild animals on their cave walls, people of all kinds from many lands have used colorants to embellish the interiors of dwellings. The use of pigments mixed with various binders for decorating peoples' surroundings as an expression of the human desire for beauty has fluctuated throughout the centuries, but has never totally abated.
