Carl Hansen's Concept Of Christmas, David Iversen Jan 1994

Carl Hansen's Concept Of Christmas, David Iversen

The Bridge

As one of the major Danish-American immigrant writers

of the early 20th century, Carl Hansen wrote short stories,

sketches, and one novel, co-founded (with Oscar W. Lund)

The Christmas journal Julegranen, and published Dansk Jul i

Amerika in 1909. This paper will focus on three stories,

published in Landmrend: Fortrellinger by Dansk Boghandel

in Cedar Falls, Iowa in 1908, which have Christmas as a

theme. The three stories are: For 30 aar siden (30 Years

Ago"), Bowlegged Joe ("Bowlegged Joe"), and Gamle Hans

Nielsen's sidste Jul ("Old Hans Nielsen's Last Christmas").

What follows is a brief look at "Carl Hansen's …

To Have Revenge On The Self-Righteous University: Pietism And Religious Doubt In Sophus Keith Winther's Beyond The Garden State, John M. Nielsen Jan 1994

To Have Revenge On The Self-Righteous University: Pietism And Religious Doubt In Sophus Keith Winther's Beyond The Garden State, John M. Nielsen

The Bridge

In the spring of 1978, Arizona Quarterly published what

was to be the last of Sophus Keith Winther's scholarly

articles. Entitled, "The Emigrant Theme," this essay in many

ways was a summation of Winther's thoughts, not only regarding

the experience of Scandinavian-Americans as told in

literature, but more importantly of his reflections regarding

the whole of human experience. For him, emigration was the

great human story, stretching from the dawn of humankind

in the Olduvai Gorge to a foreboding present. It was the

story of the Israelites wandering in the wilderness; it was the

myth of the American westward movement. …

My Parents' Lives, Hazel R. Morse Jan 1994

My Parents' Lives, Hazel R. Morse

The Bridge

Scandinavians settled with those of their own kind and

language, being drawn by relatives and friends who had

gone before them, but also through newspapers circulated

among them. Den Danske Pioneer was widely read among

Danes and may well have been the source of information

about the settling of northeastern Montana. Mr. E. F.

Madsen, an immigrant and intellectual who had made a

scouting trip to that area about 1905 urged other Danes to

settle together and establish a Danish colony.

O. H. Ammann's Return To New York, Othmar Ammann, Lilly Ammann, Rudolf Meyer

Swiss American Historical Society Review

Dear L.

Just returned from the snow-covered mountain heights of the St. Gotthard on a long ski ride. Am spending a few hours in this beautiful place, which, however, is at present quite desolate. The lake, the Pilatus look wonderful. If nothing intervenes I shall be home in 4 weeks. Shall go to Basel tonight and later to Kilchberg for a few days.

Two beautiful and quiet days have already passed since we parted. The sea is so quiet and the sky so peacefully clear as to make one forget all dangers and sorrows. Besides, the pure air is so invigorating that I feel already much better and stronger than in New York, I am looking with confidence and pleasure to the future. I feel that my body and brain need a complete restoration and I will be the more vigorous and able to work afterwards. And how · about you? I still ·see the last looks from your dear eyes and the …

Letters From 1915 To The End Of The War, Othmar Ammann, Lilly Ammann Nov 1993

Letters From 1915 To The End Of The War, Othmar Ammann, Lilly Ammann

Swiss American Historical Society Review

My dear parents,

Tomorrow the last steamship that can bring you our Christmas greetings is leaving, so that means: hurry. Just a few words, but from the heart.

One is carried along here in the non-ending stream of business so much that one can hardly catch one's breath in order to appreciate the ideal side of life. However, with the approach of the holidays, spirits are lifted. With great excitement and wonderment, young and old await the festive days. What will Christmas bring, how will the New Year begin? This is what each one is asking himself and with thousands …

Othmar H. Ammann's Military Service, Lilly Ammann, Othmar Ammann, Gustav Lindenthal

Swiss American Historical Society Review

Finally I get to write you a few lines from duty. As Papa probably has already informed you, I went from Basel to Monthal, where I met Mama and Werner, as well as Rosa and Manja Labhart from Moscow. Werner was very happy. He is thin but looks strong and healthy. He did not want to answer my question of whether he would like to come back to America with me after the war. But I am decided about bringing him back with me. On the same evening I also visited Onkel Hermann and David in Zurich. I also met …
