Guide to the MS-196: “Meine Fahrten 1925-1938” Scrapbook [My Trips 1925-1938]
________________________________________________________________________ Guide to the MS-196: “Meine Fahrten 1925-1938” Scrapbook [My Trips 1925-1938] Jesse Siegel ’16, Smith Project Intern July 2016 MS – 196: “Meine Fahrten” Scrapbook (Title page, 36 pages) Inclusive Dates: October 1925—April 1938 Bulk Dates: 1927, 1929-1932 Processed by: Jesse Siegel ’16, Smith Project Intern July 15, 2016 Provenance Purchased from Between the Covers Company, 2014. Biographical Note Possibly a group of three brothers—G. Leiber, V. Erich Leiber, and R. Leiber— participated in the German youth movement during the 1920s and 1930s. The probable maker of the photo album, Erich Leiber, was probably born before 1915 in north- western Germany, most likely in the federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia. His early experiences with the youth movement appear to have been in conjunction with school outings and Christian Union for Young Men (CVJM) in Austria. He also travelled to Sweden in 1928, but most of his travels are concentrated in northwestern Germany. Later in 1931 he became an active member in a conservative organization, possibly the Deutsche Pfadfinderschaft St. Georg,1 participating in outings to nationalistic locations such as the Hermann Monument in the Teutoburg Forest and to the Naval Academy at Mürwik in Kiel. In 1933 Erich Leiber joined the SA and became a youth leader or liaison for a Hitler Youth unit while still maintaining a connection to a group called Team Yorck, a probable extension of prior youth movement associates. After 1935 Erich’s travels seem reduced to a small group of male friends, ending with an Easter trip along the Rhine River in 1938. -

The readings and discussions in that course, especially Heinrich von Kleist’s Die Hermannsschlacht, inspired me to research more into the figure of Hermann/Arminius. Thank you for your guidance throughout this entire process, for always asking me to think deeper, for challenging me to consider the connections between Germany, Rome, and memory work and for assisting me in finding the connection I was searching for between Arminius and archaeology. To my professor, Dr. Kerstin Barndt: It is because of you that this project even exists. Thank you for encouraging me to write this thesis, for helping me to become a better writer, scholar, and researcher, and for aiding me in securing funding to travel to the Museum and Park Kalkriese. Without your support and guidance this project would never have been written. -
The Weather in Germany in Spring 2021
Press Release The weather in Germany – Spring 2021 Coldest spring since 2013 – but average sunshine Offenbach, 31 May 2021 – Spring 2021 was much too cool. Thus, the series of excessively warm springs in Germany, which had started in 2013, came to an end. The cool north winds in April and the inflow of fresh maritime air in May, in particular, kept average temperatures low. Summery weather only made a brief appearance. Whereas the amount of precipitation was less than the long-term average, the sunshine duration was slightly higher than normal. This is the summary announced by the Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD) after an initial analysis of the observations from its approximately 2,000 measuring stations. A mild March was followed by a very cool April and May At 7.2 degrees Celsius (°C), the average temperature in spring 2021 was 0.5 degrees lower than the international reference value 1961–1990. Compared to the current 1991–2020 reference period, the deviation was -1.7 degrees. The factors that determined the negative deviation were the coldest April for 40 years and the cool May. Before this, March had brought fluctuating temperatures. Germany only enjoyed a brief high summer intermezzo for Mother's Day on 9 May. During this time, Waghäusel-Kirrlach, to the south-west of Heidelberg, registered the first hot day of 2021 (> 30 °C) with a temperature of 31.3 °C, which was also the hottest spring temperature nationwide. The lowest temperature was recorded on 6 April at Messstetten on the Swabian Alb (-13.6 °C). Little precipitation in the north-east in contrast to plenty of precipitation in the south per square metre (l/m²): at around 175 l/m2, it was only 93 per cent of the long-term average. -

Xerox University Microfilms 300 North Zeeb Road Ann Arbor, Michigan 48106 74-10,982
INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. White the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. -

CHAPTER ONE — Aspects of Political and Social Developments in Germania and Scandinavia During the Roman Iron Age
CHAPTER ONE — Aspects of Political and Social Developments in Germania and Scandinavia during the Roman Iron Age 1.1 Rome & Germania 1.1.1 Early Romano-Germanic Relations It is unclear when a people who may be fairly labelled ‘Germanic’ first appeared. Dates as early as the late Neolithic or early Bronze Ages have been suggested.1 A currently popular theory identifies the earliest Germanic peoples as participants in the Jastorf superculture which emerged c. 500 bc,2 though recent linguistic research on early relations between Finno-Ugric and Germanic languages argues the existence of Bronze-Age Germanic dialects.3 Certainly, however, it may be said that ‘Germanic’ peoples existed by the final centuries bc, when classical authors began to record information about them. A fuller analysis of early Germanic society and Romano-Germanic relations would far outstrip this study’s limits,4 but several important points may be touched upon. For the Germanic peoples, Rome could be both an enemy and an ideal—often both at the same time. The tensions created by such contrasts played an important role in shaping Germanic society and ideology. Conflict marked Romano-Germanic relations from the outset. Between 113 and 101 bc, the Cimbri and Teutones, tribes apparently seeking land on which to settle, proved an alarmingly serious threat to Rome.5 It is unclear whether these tribes 1Lothar Killian, Zum Ursprung der Indogermanen: Forschungen aus Linguistik, Prähistorie und Anthropologie, 2nd edn, Habelt Sachbuch, 3 (Bonn: Habelt, 1988); Lothar Killian, Zum Ursprung der Germanen, Habelt Sachbuch, 4 (Bonn: Habelt, 1988). 2Todd, pp. 10, 26; Mark B. -

Romanization - Discourse and Changing Concepts
Romanization - discourse and changing concepts An analysis of altering interpretations of Roman-native cultural encounters, their participants and dynamics August Baugstø Hanssen One of two papers delivered as part of a Master Thesis in Archaeology Department of Archaeology, Conservation and History University of Oslo Spring 2009 Preface From the initial outset of my work three things seemed abundantly clear – I was to write two smaller papers instead of one, they should deal with completely different themes and utilize somewhat differing approaches. One was written in English and deals with the concept of Romanization. The subject was chosen as a result of my growing scepticism toward inherent elements within classical studies connected with the mechanics that have given Roman culture pre-eminence in the shaping of our own past and present culture. The other topic, which sets out to scrutinize three different museums with the goal of bringing forth some perspectives on exhibition practice at the planned historical museum in Oslo, grew out of an interest in the Viking ship debate as well as a growing curiosity in exhibition practices. This paper was also an attempt to further myself a bit from the classical tradition and focusing on a more hands-on approach alleviating more pragmatic perspectives. It seemed only natural to write this paper in Norwegian. However, things seldom work out the way you plan, and sometimes that’s not all that bad. As the work progressed common themes crystallized and made their way into both papers in a way that felt natural. They are both deeply rooted in the conviction that archaeology is a discipline firmly established within the humanities, whether we deal with the evolution of theoretical apparatus or the contextualizing of objects within the museum. -
Romans and Barbarians in Tacitus' Battle Narratives
ROMANS AND BARBARIANS IN TACITUS’ BATTLE NARRATIVES by RYAN MICHAEL SEEGER (Under the direction of Dr. Susan Mattern-Parkes) ABSTRACT The purpose of the study is to examine how Tacitus constructs ethnic stereotypes, namely those of the Romans and of the barbarians, in his battle narratives. The first section of the study explores his descriptions of technical aspects of the battle narrative, such as topography, use of weaponry, battle formations, and sieges. The second section examines the value judgments that Tacitus makes about the combatants and their actions, discussing the themes of discipline and virtus, as well as the leaders’ ability to lead by example and stifle dissent. In his descriptions of both the technical and the “moral” aspects of battle, Tacitus shapes his Romans quite differently from his barbarians. Tacitus constructs identities in his battle narratives possibly to satisfy his audience’s expectations or to make the scenes more understandable. Such constructions indicate that ethnocentrism plays an important role in Latin historiography, revealing racial prejudice in Roman society.
