Meetings In Honor Of Louis Agassiz, Lukas F. Burckhardt
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

As founder of the first comprehensive museum of the nautral sciences and as an outstanding teacher at Harvard University.

Reisebericht Der Familie Kopfli & Suppiger St. Louis Am Mississippi And Grundung Von New-Switzerland Im Staate Illinois: Book Review, Hedwig Rappolt
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
The book is a facsimile reproduction of the 1833 edition, a small volume appealing in appearance and pleasant to hold. It describes, in the form of a diary and letters, the experiences of a group of Swiss who emigrated to the prairies of Illinois. Two-thirds of it are devoted to the Journey, the ordeal of "getting there": from Sursee to Base l, through France to Havre, on a three-master to New York and over rivers and canals to St. Louis, Missouri the last stepping stone efore settling in Illinois.
Fritz Medicus, On Being Human . The Life Of Truth And Its Realization: Book Review, Leo Schelbert
Fritz Medicus, On Being Human . The Life Of Truth And Its Realization: Book Review, Leo Schelbert
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
This is a difficult book, the summary of a philosopher's final insights into "Truth and Its Realization". In a language simulataneously straightforward and compledx, questions of logic, ethics, and ultimate values are discussed, all within a tight network of post-Kantian, partly scholastic (that is Judeo-Christianized Aristotelian), Partly idealist (especially Fichtean) concepts. The study demands much patience and willingess to follow a sustained arguement which starts with a critique of phenomenological assumptions and culminates in a redefinition of religion as the domain not of credal structures but of ultimate concern.

History Of The Swedish Mission Of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints 1905-1973, Carl Erik Johansson
History Of The Swedish Mission Of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints 1905-1973, Carl Erik Johansson
Theses and Dissertations
The study traced major developments in the Swedish Mission. A decided help in this undertaking was the author's own long association with the Mormons in Sweden. The government attempted to prevent Mormon proselyting in the first two decades. This ended in a tacit approval for the Mormons to carry on. The conditions between both world wars induced fairly successful "hold-the-fort" efforts. Youth conferences were especially vital in building a spirit of unity among Swedish Mormons.
The period after the second world war showed several definite trends. Membership increased three-fold to more than 5000. Chapels were acquired. Organizations on the mission …

His obituary by his son Achille Muschi, reprinted in the Amerikanische Schweizer Zeitung of April 18, 1973, states that Mario Muschi was born in Tesserete (Ticino) in 1893 and came to this country in 1915. He spent his life in working for his beloved Swiss Journal with which he s erved the many Swiss on the West Coast. The …

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
It is a great pleasure to present in this newsletter Part Two of Professor Heinz K. Meier's absorbing sketch of the history of the Swiss American Historical Society. He shows ppw many minds tried their best in making the organization relevant, and their efforts remain an inspiration to those engaged in carrying on what they had so enthusiastically begun. Success based on competence and unity of purpose does not come easily as Professor Meier's story clearly shows, but the perspective of time reveals past crises as seemingly unavoidable growth pains and selfless respect for the work of others as perhaps …

Jean Rodolphe De Salis, Switzerland And Europe. Essays And Reflections., Leo Schelbert
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter
This book will be especially welcome to Swiss Americans who do not read German, yet are interested in keeping in touch with their country of origin or want to introduce it to their grown children. Ven Salis, widely known in Switzerland and beyond, can serve as a stimulating and sensitive guide to an understanding of the nature of the Swiss polity, of its past struggles, and of its present attempts at self-definition within the broader European and world community. A lucid and vivid style, well recreated in this translation, and a fair balance between controversial essay, disciplined historical sketch, and …

The family of Hans Ulrich Baggens toss of Rafz, Switzerland, arrived in Pennsylvania in 1743. Two m9re immigrations of Baggenstoss families from Rafz followed - one settled in Minnesota (1879); the other in Tennessee (1895). All appear related to the same Swiss ancestry. The earliest record of the name is found in 1401.
