FOR the RECORDS Researching Alsace and Lorraine VOL. 11, NO. 2 — FEBRUARY 2018 FOR THE RECORDS Researching Alsace and Lorraine Publications and websites mentioned in this article are listed in the bibliography. Alsace and Lorraine are storied, often contested lands located in eastern France on its border with Germany and the Low Countries. Alsace (see map, right), at 3,196 square miles, is about one-quarter larger than the state of Connecticut1. Lorraine (see map, page 4), at 9,089 square miles, is just slightly smaller than the state of Vermont2. Along with Champaign-Ardenne, they form the modern region Grand Est whose regional capital and largest city is Strasbourg. The historic Alsace Region was the smallest in metro- politan France, made up of two departments, Bas-Rhin in the north and Haut-Rhin in the south. The region features a large plain about four times longer than it is wide and situated between the Vosges Mountains and the Rhine River. Prior to the Franco-Prussian War, Al- sace, specifically the Haut-Rhin, also included the Ter- ritoire de Belfort. When the Germans took control over the rest of Alsace, it became the smallest department in France, and was attached to Franche-Comté and is now part of Bourgogne- Franche-Comté. The historic Lorraine Region was much larger and con- sisted of four departments, Meurthe-et-Moselle, Meuse, Moselle, and Vosges. The territory included the histori- ALSACE cal Duchy of Lorraine, Barrois, the Three Bishoprics (Metz, Verdun, and Toul), and a number of small prin- Alsace includes the French départements of Haut-Rhin (Upper Rhine) and Bas-Rhin (Lower Rhine) | Map cipalities. source: Europa Pages, <http://www.europa-pages.net/ CONTINUED ON PAGE 3. maps/Alsace.gif>.

Alsace became part of the battlefield of the 30 Years War (1618–1648). This conflict, often viewed as a struggle between the Protestants of northern Europe and the Catholics of the south, was also the first of many struggles between the Bourbon Kings of France and the Hapsburg Kings of Austria. Catholic France joined the war on the side of the Protestants in order to thwart the growing power of the Hapsburgs, who ruled Spain, Belgium, Austria, and the Holy Roman Empire encircling France. The Peace of Westphalia (1648) ending the war granted France most of Alsace, although Strasbourg and the major cities remained part of the Holy Roman Empire. The treaty of Nimwegen in 1678, at the end of the Dutch War, brought most of the Alsatian cities LORRAINE under French Control. The treaty of Ryswick ended the War of the League of Augsburg.

Architectural transformations on the Market Square in Krakow A systematic visual catalogue Jean-Yves BLAISE Iwona DUDEK Different faces of one ‘idea’ Section three, presents a selection of analogous examples (European public use and commercial buildings) so as to help the reader weigh to which extent the layout of Krakow’s marketplace, as well as its architectures, can be related to other sites. Market Square in Krakow is paradoxically at the same time a typical example of medieval marketplace and a unique site. But the frontline between what is common and what is unique can be seen as “somewhat fuzzy”. Among these examples readers should observe a number of unexpected similarities, as well as sharp contrasts in terms of form, usage and layout of buildings.

The time series concerning the 13 regions of mainland France have been considered for fitting and validating the model. An extremely simple, two-dimensional model with only two parameters demonstrated to be able to reproduce the time series concerning the number of daily demises caused by Covid-19, the hospitalizations, intensive care and emer- gency accesses, the daily number of positive tests and other indicators, for the different French regions.

  • Sehr Geehrte Schulleitungen, Sehr Geehrte KITA Leitungen, Sehr
    Sehr geehrte Schulleitungen, sehr geehrte KITA Leitungen, sehr geehrte Bürgermeisterkollegen/kolleginnen, die Landesregierung hat heute Nachmittag beschlossen, dass ab Montag, 16.03.2020 Schulen und Kindertagesstätten aufgrund des Coronavirus geschlossen bleiben. Zur Eindämmung und Verlangsamung des Virus ein sinnvoller Schritt. Weniger sinnvoll ist meines Erachtens nach der Zeitpunkt der Beschlussfassung an einem Freitagnachmittag. Bei aller Sorgfaltspflicht und der Verantwortung aller handelnden Personen müssen wir aber immer im Blick haben, dass nur ein geordnetes, ruhiges und mit Übersicht versehenes Verhalten Erfolg bringen wird. Die aktuelle Entscheidung der Landesregierung wird logischerweise ab Montag dazu führen, dass viele Arbeitsplätze leer bleiben, da die Eltern, egal ob Mütter oder Väter, bei ihren Kindern bleiben müssen. Insbesondere betrifft dies den KITA- und Grundschulbereich. Während es Berufszweige gibt, bei denen dies möglicherweise in Betrachtung der derzeitigen Lage händelbar wäre, ist dies für andere Berufszweige ein elementarer Einschnitt. Dies sind u.a.: - Pflege- und Gesundheitseinrichtungen - Polizei -Justiz -hauptamtliche Feuerwehren -Energieversorger -Hersteller von Medizinmaterial In Praxen z.B. fehlen die Ärzte und Angestellte, ebenso im Krankenhaus. Ebenso seien die Pflegedienste erwähnt, die sich dann aufgrund des fehlenden Personals nicht mehr um die alten Menschen kümmern können.

This paper aims to describe different aspects of critical care in the FTA. For this, we reviewed official 25 information about population size and intensive care unit (ICU) bed capacity in the FTA and literature on FTA ICU specificities. Persons living in or visiting the FTA are exposed to specific risks, mainly severe road traffic 26 injuries, envenoming, stab or ballistic wounds, and emergent tropical infectious diseases. These diseases may 27 require specific knowledge and critical care management. However, there are not enough ICU beds in the FTA. 28 Indeed, there are 7.2 ICU beds/100 000 population in Guadeloupe, 7.2 in Martinique, and 4.5 in French Gui- 29 ana. In addition, seriously ill patients in remote areas regularly have to be transferred, most often by helicopter, 30 resulting in a delay in admission to intensive care.

  • Texas Alsatian
    2017 Texas Alsatian Karen A. Roesch, Ph.D. Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis Indianapolis, Indiana, USA IUPUI ScholarWorks This is the author’s manuscript: This is a draft of a chapter that has been accepted for publication by Oxford University Press in the forthcoming book Varieties of German Worldwide edited by Hans Boas, Anna Deumert, Mark L. Louden, & Péter Maitz (with Hyoun-A Joo, B. Richard Page, Lara Schwarz, & Nora Hellmold Vosburg) due for publication in 2016. https://scholarworks.iupui.edu Texas Alsatian, Medina County, Texas 1 Introduction: Historical background The Alsatian dialect was transported to Texas in the early 1800s, when entrepreneur Henri Castro recruited colonists from the French Alsace to comply with the Republic of Texas’ stipulations for populating one of his land grants located just west of San Antonio. Castro’s colonization efforts succeeded in bringing 2,134 German-speaking colonists from 1843 – 1847 (Jordan 2004: 45-7; Weaver 1985:109) to his land grants in Texas, which resulted in the establishment of four colonies: Castroville (1844); Quihi (1845); Vandenburg (1846); D’Hanis (1847). Castroville was the first and most successful settlement and serves as the focus of this chapter, as it constitutes the largest concentration of Alsatian speakers. This chapter provides both a descriptive account of the ancestral language, Alsatian, and more specifically as spoken today, as well as a discussion of sociolinguistic and linguistic processes (e.g., use, shift, variation, regularization, etc.) observed and documented since 2007. The casual observer might conclude that the colonists Castro brought to Texas were not German-speaking at all, but French.

  • FRANCE Figure Analysis – Displacement Related to Disasters
    FRANCE Figure Analysis – Displacement Related to Disasters SUMMARY OF INTERNAL DISPLACEMENT IN 2019 France suffered from several serious and deadly disasters that caused multiple new displacements and destroyed or severely damaged many houses in 2019. IDMC estimates that there were 36 disaster events which triggered more than 16,700 new displacements. The main triggers of displacement were floods, heavy rains, storms, landslides, earthquakes and wildfires. All new displacements were caused by disasters, none by conflict or violence. France had one of the highest recorded numbers of new displacements resulting from disasters in Europe. In metropolitan France, there were 32 new displacement events, 6,157 new displacements, 674 pre-emptive evacuations and more than 800 houses destroyed. Most new displacements were caused by storms and floods. The most significant displacement event in metropolitan France was an earthquake on 11 November in Ardèche which displaced more than 2,000 people. At least 2,000 people affected by the disaster were living in a situation of displacement as of 31 December 2019.
