    American Ethnicity and Czech Immigrants' Integration in Texas: Cemetery Data

    AMERICAN ETHNICITY AND CZECH IMMIGRANTS’ INTEGRATION IN TEXAS: CEMETERY DATA EVA ECKERT Anglo-American University, Prague The lasting traces of Czech immigration to Texas and the once prominent immigrant community lead to the cemeteries. The purpose of this study is to show how to read Czech cemetery data in Texas from the 1860s to the 1950s in order to understand the immigrants’ integration and contact with their German neighbors and the dominant Anglo-American society. To immigrants in the middle of the 19th century, Texas offered land and freedom of movement. But the reasons to return home outweighed those to stay for some of the earliest immigrants who were unable to align themselves with networks established by the German immigrants who preceded them. Those who followed the pioneers lived within interethnic social structures that they gradually abandoned in favor of the ethnocentric Czech community. Language choices, the interplay of Czech and English, and the endurance of the Czech language in tombstone inscriptions yield synchronic and diachronic data whose analysis and interpretation reveal sociolinguistic networks of immigrants, rules of social cohesion and ethnic identity. Keywords: Texas Czech cemeteries, immigrant integration, language shift, interethnic networks, ethnocentric Czech community INTRODUCTION Cemetery lands are overlaid with language that is opened to diachronic and synchronic exploration. Chronological data of gravestones resonate with immigrant arrivals. Cemetery inscriptions thus provide a permanent, yet rarely

Edwards Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of English and Comparative Literature Head of the Department of Comparative Literature *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. iii ABSTRACT In The Students of Human Rights, I propose that the role of the cultural figure of the American student activist of the Long Sixties in human rights literature enables us to identify a pedagogy of deficit and indebtedness at work within human rights discourse. My central argument is that a close and comparative reading of the role of this cultural figure in the American context, anchored in three representative cases from Argentina—a dictatorship, Mexico—a nominal democracy, and Puerto Rico—a colonially-occupied and minoritized community within the United States, reveals that the liberal idealization of the subject of human rights relies upon the implicit pedagogical regulation of an educable subject of human rights.

    H.R.ANo.A302 RESOLUTION 1 WHEREAS, The month of October typically brings to Texas a 2 host of festivals celebrating the Czech heritage that is enjoyed by 3 a multitude of citizens across the state; and 4 WHEREAS, Among the first Czechs to come to Texas in the years 5 following annexation was the Reverend Josef Arnost Bergmann, who 6 arrived with his family in 1850 and settled in the German community 7 of Cat Spring in Austin County; Reverend Bergmann soon began 8 writing back to Europe, praising the availability of inexpensive 9 land and the opportunities to be found in Texas; his letters, one of 10 which was published in the Moravian News, are credited with 11 spurring many other Czechs to emigrate as well; and 12 WHEREAS, Most of those newcomers landed at Galveston and then 13 traveled to Cat Spring, dispersing from there to establish new 14 homes throughout the state; the census of 1860 reported some 700 15 Czechs living in Texas, and by 1900 the state had approximately 250 16 Czech communities, the majority of which were concentrated in 15 17 counties situated on the Blackland and Coastal Prairies; and 18 WHEREAS, Notable characteristics of the Czech Texans have 19 included their close-knit family structure, a deep attachment to 20 the land and to farming as a way of life, and an egalitarianism that 21 has expressed itself in staunch support for this country 's 22 democratic ideals; Czechs have also been quite active in forming 23 cooperative societies and fraternal organizations; and 24 WHEREAS, Together with Texans of German descent,

Phys­ ically isolated, the town continued to experi­ ence during these decades what occurred in pioneering times: close-knit families, commu­ nity spirit, and personal honesty. Unlike the majority of Czechs in Texas, who were Catholics, almost all of the Czechs of Snook were Protestants belonging to the Unity of Brethren, which was established in Bohemia in the fifteenth century by the spiritual heirs of John Hus. Nevertheless, Snook Czechs were not publicly overt about their religion as were their American neighbors. The typical Czech lifestyle of the old country prevailed. "We're Czechs; they're Americans," the au­ thor's father and other older Czech settlers often said to connote the difference between the Czechs and the English, Scots, and Irish set­ tlers.
