  • LD'4-A,I,S, I., U4SS'fa
    THE HISTORY OF TBE DEPARTMENT OF GERMAN OF THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY on the occasion of the University's centenary by OSK.AR SEIDLIN LIBRARY OHIO STATE , UNIVE ' RSITY II LD'4-a,i,S,i., 1969 U4SS'fa / / PREFACE The history of the German Department which is told on the follo,dng pages needs no introduction, but a few initial words of appreciation are very much in order o Our thanks for putting the histroy together go to two people. First to Mr. Robert. Popham, one of our undergraduate majors, who gathered much of tha historical material and who did so with skill and understanding. And second to the history's author, Oskar Seidlin. I suppose it must be difficult for anyone to write the story of a department in whose squabbles and successes and fortunes he has been intimately involved for many, many years. For Oskar Seidlin, however, the task was doubly difficult. The history of the department's rise to excellence over the last three decades is in fairly large measure the same history as that of Seidlin's own career .. As one of the most distinguishec scholars at this or any other university, he had the well­ nigh impossible task of telling the story objectively without at the same time sounding shamelessly vain. To avoid the latter danger he presents a less objective chronicle than another writer would have done. For while one certainly gets an impression of his stature as scholar and teacher from the narrative, his fear of appearing immodest has led him to give his own accomplishments and the many honors he has brought to Ohio State considerably less than their proper due.

D ., 1965 language and Literature, modern University Microfilms. Inc., Ann Arbor, Michigan GRYPHIUS* SONNETS: STUDIES IN IMAGERY A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Marvin Samuel Schindler, B. A., M. A. The Ohio State University 1965 Approved by Departmentmr of German ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I should like to express my sincere thanks to the following people, whose kind help, criticism, and interest made possible the completion of this dissertation: Professor Hugo Bekker, my adviser, who was brave enough to assume responsibility for the dissertation in midstream, patient enough to spend countless hours of clarifying discussion with me, and kind enough to disagree firmly with me when he thought I was wrong. Professor Walter Naumann, now at the Technische Hochschule in Darmstadt, Germany, who, as my adviser until his departure from this country, furnished the impetus for the dissertation and, with his unique ability to stimulate his students intellectually, guided me well until its completion. To Professor Naumann, and to Professor Oskar Seidlin, I also owe most of the little I have learned about literary criticism and interpretation. To their influence can be traced only the successful parts of this study. Professor Wolfgang Fleischhauer, a good friend, whose criticism and suggestions on matters of word history and development of meaning in Chapters I, III, IV, and V were ii ill especially appreciated, but whose kindness, innate humanity, and general interest in the entire dissertation have been a source of help and self-confidence which cannot be so specifically identified and measured.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While 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.

Usually, these gaps exist because the particular periods are considered of little consequence. However, a singular lack of precise information has existed about an important aspect in the life of Thomas Mann: his relationship with Czechoslovakia. The purpose of this research was to shed light on this period by determining what motivated his quest for Czechoslovak citizenship; where and when he visited that country; what his feelings were toward the people of Czechoslovakia; how he was received by the public, press, literary critics; and the nature of his friendship with Karel Sapek, the foremost Czechoslovak literary figure. In the course of assembling the information and material relevant to Thomas Mann's relationships with Czechoslovakia and its literary, governmental, and political figures, it became quickly evident that several courses could be pursued in its organization. Consideration was given to the many organizational paths open to me.

  • The Goethe Societies of Baltimore and Washington
    THE GOETHE SOCIETIES OF BALTIMORE AND WASHINGTON By AUGUSTUS J. PRAHL In the history of the Goethe societies of the world the United States have played an important role. Long before the first European societies in honor of the great German genius—Goethe Verein of Vienna, founded in 1878 1 by Professor Karl Julius Schröer of Vienna's Technische Hoch- schule and the well-known Goethe Gesellschaft of Weimar in 1885—were established, American admirers of Goethe had united in literary groups bearing his name. Generally such organizations were of a comparatively short duration. However, again and again the inspiration and human qualities of Goethe's writings have kindled the minds and hearts of his American followers who, at appropriate times, founded new Goethe circles.2 The present Goethe societies in Baltimore and Washington have a common beginning: both are rooted in the "Goethe Society of Maryland and the District of Columbia." To tell the story of the latter is to relate their history up to the year 1949. The Goethe Society of Maryland and the District of Columbia occupied an unique position among the Goethe societies in the United States. It was the only Goethe Society which survived the darkening of the political skies of the thirties and the cata- clysm of World War II. It is a remarkable record that the spirit prevailing in the Society withstood all the vicissitudes which brought about the end of so many German societies in this country. Instead the Goethe Society of Maryland and the District of Columbia has carried on successfully during the eventful years and can record a vigorous existence and growth.
