Off To Carolina- No News From There, Konrad Basler
Swiss American Historical Society Review
"In January 1743 the whole family emigrated to Carolina.
Thereafter no more news came to Dorlikon." With this footnote the
entries to Rudolf Eprecht's line in the Epprecht family chronicle
end. It touched me when, three decades ago, I received Reverend
Robert Epprecht's research work on the Epprecht family as a gift.
According to Reverend Epprecht's findings, other villagers from
Dorlikon had also left for Carolina, among whom a certain Conrad
Basler with his family. Did they ever reach the other side of the
Ocean? If so, where did they settle? And do these families still exist
today?

Off To Pennsylvania, Konrad Basler
Swiss American Historical Society Review
After New York, my wife and I traveled on to Bethlehem,
Pennsylvania. We had long been invited to visit John and Nelda Fisher
there, old university friends of ours, and it was now that we finally complied.
'It looks greener and cleaner', was our first response to the town that
had become our second home and our daughter Susan's birthplace. The
fortunate change in the town's appearance seemed due to the 'Bethlehem
Steel Company', which had shrunk to a mere tenth of its original jobs.
Lehigh University, on the other hand, had grown in size-in particular its
research department for …

Swiss American Historical Society Review
At the time of the Dorlikon pioneers only Indian paths led west,
and yet, the traffic connections to the Midwest hold a core position in
the history of North America. My wife and I went to one of the most
important centers in this context, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, coming
from Newark, New Jersey. As a member of a delegation of experts
I had been to Newark twenty years before, when, for the first time
worldwide , a novel way of building runways was being tested there.
On our visit in 1992, on the other hand, I was more interested in the …

The phrase ealles Englalandes cyningc appears for the first time in I–II Cnut, and represents a shift in the discourse of Anglo-Saxon kingship, changing it from king over a people to king over a territory, redefining the discourse of nationhood.

Kings And Tyrants: Leonardo Bruni's Translation Of Xenophon's "Hiero", Brian Maxson
ETSU Faculty Works
Leonardo Bruni published one of his most widely copied translations, Xenophon's pro-monarchical Hiero, shortly before he penned his more famous original works, his Dialogues and Panegyric to the City of Florence. Scholars have traditionally focused on the political ideas present in these original treatises; yet, despite the centrality of political ideas to the Hiero, its temporal proximity to these works, and its enormous popularity (the work exists in 200 fifteenth-century manuscripts), scholars have neglected to offer a full assessment of Bruni's translation in the context of these works. Bruni's translation of Xenophon's Hiero fit into a debate …

Mémoire Du Duel Dans À La Recherche Du Temps Perdu, Yan Hamel
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
This paper analyses the duel as a central motive in Marcel Proust’s novel À la recherche du temps perdu. In the novels cycle, it appears that the occasions the men have to fight or to watch a duel help to understand why that violent practice increased during the last decade before the second World War. The practice seems to be monstrous morally and socially.

The Tercentenary Of New Bern, H. Dwight Page
Swiss American Historical Society Review
The present year 2010 marks the tercentenary of the City of New Bern, North Carolina, and yet this celebration signifies much more than that, for, although Sir Walter Raleigh did establish a temporary English colony on Roanoke Island in 1587 and although a number of English plantations were established along Albemarle Sound and Pamlico Sound during the second half of the seventeenth century, the European urbanization of North Carolina did not begin in earnest until the foundation of New Bern by Baron Christoph deGraffenried in 1710, and for North Carolinians it is New Bern which represents the first permanent major …

Reconstructing Indo-European Syllabification, Andrew M. Byrd
Linguistics Faculty Publications
The chief concern of this dissertation is to investigate a fundamental, yet unsolved problem within the phonology of Proto-Indo-European (PIE): the process of syllabification. I show that by analyzing the much more easily reconstructable word-edge clusters we may predict which types of consonant clusters can occur word-medially, provided that we assume a special status for certain consonants at word’s edge. Having thus analyzed the entire PIE phonological system, I believe I have developed the first working hypothesis of Indo-European syllabification, which we may now use to pre- dict which types of syllable-driven rules of consonant deletion and vowel epenthesis occurred …
