Children Of Danish Roots, L.C. Laursen
Children Of Danish Roots, L.C. Laursen
The Bridge
Children of Danish Roots is a translation by Willard R. Garred of Stammens B0rn, an article that appeared originally in the 1931 issue of the "Ryslinge Julebog," a Christmas magazine of the Ryslinge Folk High School, Ryslinge, Denmark. The article was written by L. C. Laursen when he lived in the western Nebraska community at Mirage Flats near Hay Springs. After his arrival in the community he named it Ryslinge, a name generally accepted by the settlers and their friends.

A Transplanted Dane Looks Back On 80 Years, Ludvig Christian Mosbaek

Ludvig Christian Mosb~k (1855-193B) was one of the founding fathers of Askov , Minnesota . Coming to the Danish colony when it was called Partridge, he took active part in establishing its church , school , creamery , and first cooperative . But , above all, he was a skilled nurseryman. He created a market for wild ferns , brought in the stock of various trees hardy enough for the northern climate , raised perennials and evergreens from seeds , and introduced rutabagas to the American market. For some years he combined farming with a nursery business, but gradually gave …

The Travels Abroad Of H. C. Andersen, Don Mowatt
The Bridge
A complete appreciation of Hans Christian Andersen has always been limited to Danish-speaking readers because so much of his private life is most clearly revealed in his letters, diaries, and travel books which remain largely untranslated into English. There is a handful of exceptions, the majority of which are mid-nineteenth century translations from England.
The Danish Immigrant Experience In The Fiction Of Enok Mortensen, Rudolf J. Jensen
The Danish Immigrant Experience In The Fiction Of Enok Mortensen, Rudolf J. Jensen
The Bridge
Here are several short quotations from Enok Mortensen 's fiction for the purpose of showing its primary themes: " . .. for you emigrants, nothing is ever as good as it was in Denmark . .. you always have to compare . .. Over here one always possesses a peculiar unrest-only another hundred dollars, a thousand, or a million dollars more. In the old country everything was ordered and secure . .. Sons followed in the footsteps of their fathers, but as a rule they didn't get any farther either . .. Here in America it was the Golden Chance …
Enok Mortensen's Major Fiction, Dorothy Burton Skardal
Enok Mortensen's Major Fiction, Dorothy Burton Skardal
The Bridge
Enok Mortensen' s literary career was strangely divided. In the 1930s he published a play and three books of fiction in a first burst of activity that began after most other Scandinavian immigrant authors had ceased to publish or had died. After 1936, however, he abruptly ceased to publish fiction except for scattered short stories , and for many years wrote historical works in English instead. In English too was his charming autobiographical account of A Danish Boyhood in 1981. Who would have expected, then, that his last book would return to the novel form after nearly half a century …
Enok Mortensen As Preacher, Thorvald Hansen
Enok Mortensen As Preacher, Thorvald Hansen
The Bridge
Unless one were aware of it, one would not be likely to guess that Enok Mortensen was an immigrant. Even when one was aware of it, one tended to forget the fact. In his speaking and in his writing, Mortensen did not portray the usual marks of a Danish immigrant. His pronunciation of English was flawless and he was no stranger to English grammar. He was as much at home in one language as the other and he was as much a part of America as he was of his native Denmark.
Danebod Fall Meeting, Elsie S. Hansen
Danebod Fall Meeting, Elsie S. Hansen
The Bridge
In 1943 when Enok Mortensen and his family arrived in Tyler, Minnesota, to begin his pastorate at Danebod Lutheran Church, they were greeted by a severe blizzard which prevented them from moving into the parsonage for several days. The parsonage, located across from the church, had been redecorated, cleaned, insulated and made ready for their occupancy and soon they were comfortably ensconced. This was to be their home for almost 18 years.
Danebod Family Recreation Camps, Otto G. Hoiberg
Danebod Family Recreation Camps, Otto G. Hoiberg
The Bridge
"The family that plays together , stays together !" Implied conversely in this generalization , one finds at least a partial explanation of the troubled waters presently navigated by the family in America. Whereas in years gone by , much recreational activity was enjoyed jointly by the various members of a family , in this day and age each member tends to go his own way to satisfy his leisure time needs and desires. After the dinner hour , Dad has a bowling engagement , Mom goes to a meeting of her Study Club , Susie heads for a Girl …
Enok Mortensen And Askov, Hans Henningsen
Enok Mortensen And Askov, Hans Henningsen
The Bridge
The connection between Enok Mortensen and Askov Folk High School in Denmark came about accidentally, as it were, in the middle of the 1950s. The background was that rector Knud Hansen made some critical remarks, in an interview, about the United States and American foreign policy. This caused a great to-do in the press, so much so that the American ambassador decided to visit Askov Folk High School to judge for himself whether it were possible that Askov had "gone communist." Shortly thereafter Knud Hansen received an official invitation to spend three months in the United States. The visit, which …
Enok Mortensen As Archivist, Thorvald Hansen
Enok Mortensen As Archivist, Thorvald Hansen
The Bridge
One cannot say with any degree of finality why Enok Mortensen became the historian and archivist of the Danish, later the American Evangelical Lutheran Church. This much, however, is obvious--he was interested in it. Only a genuine interest could have caused him to work diligently at it for a long period of time and to write the history of the church with which he had become intimately familiar. The records do not indicate that he received any monetary reward for his efforts, nor that he sought any. He hoped that others would share his interest and do whatever was in …

Enok Mortensen And The Danes Worldwide Archives, Inger Bladt
The Bridge
Enok Mortensen, whose death was a loss not only for the Danish community in America but also for Denmark, was one of the last of Denmark's sons to have intimate connections to immigrant activities at the beginning of the century, for he spent his life in a close bond with the Danish American colony.
Enok Mortensen And The History Of Danish Immigration To America, Eric Helmer Pedersen
Enok Mortensen And The History Of Danish Immigration To America, Eric Helmer Pedersen
The Bridge
Enok Mortensen is probably best known in Denmark through his activity as a guest lecturer at Askov Folk High School in the 1960s and 1970s. Within the confines of a small group of Danes with friends and family in America he also had a name as a writer of fiction. It is true that his first work Mit Folk (1932), a collection of short stories, was published in Askov, Minnesota, but his next, the novel Saledes blev jeg hjeml0s (1934) was published in Holb
