Scrutinizing A Giant: Frisch's And Duerrenmatt's Views Of America Jan 1976

Scrutinizing A Giant: Frisch's And Duerrenmatt's Views Of America

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

Ever since its discovery America has fascinated, intrigued and also repelled Europeans. And ever since in the 17th century Europeans have started to emigrate in greater numbers to North America, this land has been a puzzling giant to the transatlantic contemplator. For quite some time, the Europeans' direct experience and even their factual information was limited and, thus, the new continent was understandably prone to be mythified-be it as some sort of earthly paradise where goodness and freedom reigned, be it as a degenerated place infected by all imaginable vices of modern times. Yet even with today's array of information, …

New Hope: A Mormon Colony In Central California, Clint Mccready Jan 1976

New Hope: A Mormon Colony In Central California, Clint Mccready

Theses and Dissertations

New Hope was a small Mormon agricultural community in Central California. It was founded in 1846, by Samuel Brannan, on the hope that Brigham Young would make it the center stake of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The approximately twenty farmers at New Hope labored diligently under the illusion that thousands of their brethren would shortly join them. When President Young decided to settle in the Great Basin, the New Hope settlement was terminated that same year: 1847.

Formal Reporting Systems Of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints, 1830-1975, Dennis H. Smith

Relf Kieser, Max Frisch: Das Literarische Tagebuch: Book Review, John F. Holley Jan 1976

Relf Kieser, Max Frisch: Das Literarische Tagebuch: Book Review, John F. Holley

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

The significance of Max Frisch's Diaries as literature is not dependent on a formal satisfaction of structural norms: it is not a art that strives for the perfection of a traditional model, but rather an attempt to move through a linguistic game ("ein linguistisches Spiel") toweard ther boundries of the expressible - toward that point at which, as Rolf Kieser puts it, the reader recognizes the significance of the white spaces between the words ("das Weisse zwischen den Worten"). In his book Max Frisch: Das literarische Tagebuch Professor Kieser bring calls " diaristisch," to the fore and, in a examination …

Martini's book provides the reader with an insight into the harsh life in one of the least known parts of Switzerland the Val Eavona in the upper Ticino.

For generations emigration has been a part of every family's life: the older sons were forced to seek their livelihood in distant countries, thus making room for the younger children and leavng behind mourning women-mothers , sisters, fiancees and even wives. All this …

Daniela Weinberg, Peasant Wisclom, Cultural Adaptation In A Swiss Village: Book Review, Elinor Sosne Jan 1976

Daniela Weinberg, Peasant Wisclom, Cultural Adaptation In A Swiss Village: Book Review, Elinor Sosne

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

Traditional anthropological wisdom holds that peasantry as a cultural type is declining in the modern world as the social and economic conditions for its existence disappear. Modern peasant community studies, therefore, often trace the transformation that is occurring throughout the world as typically peasant communities change and new "post-peasants'' emerge .
