Nicholas Vazsonyi (Hg.) Searching for Common Ground Diskurse zur deutschen Identität 1750-1871 The Rhine Crisis of 1840: Rheinlieder\ German Nationalism, and the Masses Lorie A. Vanchena France's threat in 1840 to reestablish the Rhine as its eastern border proved central to the formation of German national consciousness and identity in the nineteenth century. The Rhine crisis generated intense anti-French, patriotic fervor in the German territories that extended well beyond the Rhineland. One expression of this nationalist sentiment was the poetry written as a direct response to the crisis, the countless Rheinlieder. These poems, including those critical of the Rheinliedbewegung> functioned as a medium of public debate about the crisis with France. Constituting a literary, journalistic, and political phenomenon, the poems enjoyed widespread popularity and resonance among the German public. The periodic press in particular served as a vehicle for disseminating these poems, thus enabling them to become part of the public dialog on the historical developments they addressed. -
