Department of l4i£4p/' The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date DE-6 (2/88) ii ABSTRACT Little scholarly research has been done on the function of Germanism among Mennonites who immigrated to Canada from Russia in the 1920's, and what has been done often relies on an oversimplified "desire for separation" to explain the phenomenon. At the same time, it has been argued that the enthusiasm for Nazi Germany among Mennonite immigrants in Canada is to be understood as part of a larger "Volks-German awakening". In fact, the Mennonite experience of brutal treatment during the Bolshevik Revolution, the economic conditions of the Great Depression, and assinflationist pressures from Canadian society put them in a naturally receptive position for the cultural, political and ethnic ideas associated with the "new Germany".

  • Child Death and Spiritual Sustenance in a Hutterian Colony
    OMEGA, Vol. 64(3) 185-202, 2011-2012 THROUGH THE TOUCH OF GOD: CHILD DEATH AND SPIRITUAL SUSTENANCE IN A HUTTERIAN COLONY JOANNE CACCIATORE, PHD, FT, LMSW REBECCA ONG, MSW Arizona State University, Phoenix ABSTRACT Nestled in more than 5,000 acres of farmland in rural South Dakota, one Hutterian colony flourishes with more than 23 families and a population of 115 people. Very little is known about the ways in which Hutterites experience traumatic infant and child death on the colony. No research studies to date have explored this topic. This is an ethnographic study that utilized extended observations of the group and both individual and group interviewing in order to create a cultural portrait specifically focusing on Hutterites experiencing traumatic child death. Observations were organized into five thematic categories: 1) details of the actual death experience; 2) emotional and physical reactions to the loss; 3) familial and communal response; 4) coping and rituals; and 5) spirituality. The role of communal mourning, ritualization, and spirituality in creating a healing milieu for bereaved families is discussed. GENERAL ETHNOGRAPHIC BACKGROUND History The Hutterites, like the Mennonites, the Amish, and the Brethren in Christ, had their beginnings during the Reformation in the 16th century as a part of the 185 Ó 2012, Baywood Publishing Co., Inc. doi: 10.2190/OM.64.3.a http://baywood.com 186 / CACCIATORE AND ONG Anabaptist movement, whose core beliefs include adult baptism and pacifism.

  • The Promised Land: Spokane's Hutterite Community—A Place
    WashingtonHistory.org THE PROMISED LAND Spokane’s Hutterite Community—A Place Where History Lives By Vance J. Youmans Columbia The Magazine of Northwest History, Fall 2000: Vol. 14, No. 3 Embodying the Radical Reformation that gave them birth, the Hutterite communities of North America, with their unique dress and culture, endure as enclaves of living history. The Hutterite communities, or bruderhofs, remain quite apart from the mainstream of modern society, unseen and unheard by most people. In 1960 a group of Hutterites, whose roots date back to early 16th-century Switzerland, moved to the outskirts of Spokane, Washington, where today they work, dress and play much as their ancestors did over 400 years ago Living in communes of usually not more than 150 people, the Hutterites typically practice dryland agriculture on a large scale. Hutterite communities, or "colonies," strive for complete self-sufficiency; they raise virtually everything they need for their sustenance, buying only what they cannot produce on their own land (notably coffee, tea, sugar, salt, light bulbs, chemicals, etc.). Though dressing and living by guidelines hundreds of years old, the Hutterites, paradoxically, engage in the acquisition of the most modern farming technology—a practice that allows them to conduct extremely successful agrarian operations. Being astute business administrators, the Hutterites generally establish prosperous colonies. This success leads to the development of daughter colonies, a necessity that arises after a colony reaches a certain critical mass. When a colony "branches"—that is, divides to form a new colony—half of the population departs to a pre-selected site, taking its share of the assets with it.

  • A Dialect Study on a Hutterite Colony in East Central South Dakota Katie
    Waldner: Hutterite dialect in South Dakota The forgotten people: a dialect study on a Hutterite colony in East Central South Dakota Katie Waldner Northwestern College, St. Paul, Minnesota, USA [email protected] Katie Waldner is a senior Linguistics and Spanish double major at Northwestern College in St. Paul, Minnesota, USA. Her language and linguistic interests include studying language acquisition from firsthand experience and helping others to do the same. Abstract. In this study, the English variety of three Hutterite women from East Central South Dakota is described. The Hutterites are a communal society that immigrated to the northern United States and later to southern Canada in the 1800s and are one of few ethnic groups in the United States that have retained their mother-tongue—Hutterisch— as well as their religious language, German. To communicate with the outside world, all Hutterite children also learn English, making all Hutterites trilingual by adolescence. Their variety of English has been strongly affected by Hutterisch, a dialect of German that all Hutterites learn as their first language. In the instance of language contact examined in this study, the women’s use of English showed the influence of Hutterisch in the areas of pronunciation, topicalization, preposition usage, and intonation. Introduction The English language is one of the lingua francas of the modern world. It is spoken on every continent and is a symbol of power and success. As it has spread, it has changed. Regional, political, and social divisions amongst people have created divisions amongst their respective varieties. In his article on language variety, Preston (1993, p.

  • New World Mennonite Low German an Investigating of Changes in Progress
    New World Mennonite Low German An Investigating of Changes in Progress By Roslyn Cherie Burns A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctorate in Philosophy in Linguistics in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Gary B. Holland Keith Johnson Thomas F. Shannon Spring 2016 1 Abstract This dissertation explores dialect diversification in the long-distance New World Plautdietsch speech community. Plautdietsch dialects are traditionally classified as belonging to one of two types: either Chortitza or Molotschna. The traditional dialect classification has recently come under scrutiny because speakers rarely use features exclusive to either type. I propose that variation in vowel production is an alternative way of classifying dialect affiliation. In this project, I analyze both the production of vowels and the production of traditional dialect features used by native Plautdietsch speakers living in North America. This work finds that both the traditional dialect features and the innovations in the vowel system are linked to information about a community's migration history, but the two systems represent different aspects of a community's history. i Table of Contents Chapter 1: Problem and Definition 1 1.1 Plautdietsch Background 2 1.1.1 The History of Low German 2 Plautdietsch as a Written Language 10 1.1.2 Plautdietsch Speaking Populations in North America 11 1.2 Defining Mennonites 13 1.2.1 Prussian Mennonites 14 1.3 North America Data Collection

  • Russoâœgerman Placeâœnames in Russia and in North America
    Russo-German Place-Names in Russia and in North America 1 EDMUND HEIER IN STUDIES OF GERMAN COMMUNITIES in Russia, place-names have always played an important and interesting part. Especially when reliable information has not been available as to the geo- graphic origin of the settlers has the place-name - coupled with some definite dialectal features - been helpful in the tracing of the provenance of the founders of a certain community.2 With these migratory Russo-Germans t,vo patterns for naming may be observed: they gave their settlements totally new place-names having no relation at all to the colonists' origin in Germany or they used names suggesting their German ancestry. The purpose of this paper is to show the variety of place-names and the flexibility of their formation among Russo-Germans in Russia and North America. Russo-Germans in Russia were settlers with special privileges who had been invited by the Russian Imperial government, for reason of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century state policy, to occupy 1 Place-names of the reformed colonists such as the Hutterites and the Men- nonites are not discussed in this paper. Extensive research has been done elsewhere regarding these groups. lowe a special debt of gratitude to Professor Herbert Penz!, University of Michigan, and the editors and unnamed readers for their suggestions concerning arrangements and style. 2 Many Russo-German communities preserved the dialects of their ancestry in Germany. Others, however, formed relatively new dialects as Germans from various areas settled in one colony. Though there is no systematic linguistic analysis of all the colonies available, dialect studies of note were.

  • GROWING PAINS Hutterite Education
    Hutterite Education: Growing Pains 1 Running Head: HUTTERITE EDUCATION: GROWING PAINS Hutterite Education: Growing Pains by Raymond Kleinsasser Abstract In the 15th century, Hutterites in Europe had an excellent education system that was before its time by several hundred years. Because Hutterites are pacifists, they were persecuted for religious reasons throughout the 16th and 17th century. As a result, they were unable to continue being forerunners in education and the quality of their education declined. Upon migration to North America in 1874, they surrendered control of their education system to the public school systems. Today there is a revival in education among Hutterites. They are training their own teachers, becoming more involved in education, and are investing monetary and human resources into education. Issues facing Hutterian educators are the integration of culture and language into the school curriculum and connecting school life to home life. Hutterite Education: Growing Pains 2 Introduction This paper will give an overview of the history and structure of the Hutterite education system, and the reasons why Hutterites and other minority cultural groups should become actively involved in their children’s education. It will evaluate the reasons behind the Hutterian drive for higher education in the 16th century, as well as its demise. The paper will also identify some past and present cultural issues concerning Hutterite education. Background History Hutterites are a group of persons who are members of the Anabaptist faith, a pacifist religion that originated during the Protestant Reformation of the early 1500's. Originating in Switzerland, Germany, the South Tyrol, and Moravia, the Hutterites are one of three surviving Anabaptist groups (the others being Mennonites and Old Order Amish).

  • A Dariusleut Hutterite Colony in Japan
    Prairie Perspectives: Geographical Essays (Vol: 13) Owa: a Dariusleut Hutterite colony in Japan John C. Lehr University of Winnipeg, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada [email protected] Abstract There are over 480 Hutterite Colonies in North America and one in Japan. This Japanese colony was established in 1972 by a group of Christian Japanese families wanting to practice communal living. This paper describes the process of establishing the Owa colony and explains its relationship with the Dariusleut. Its agricultural economy is contrasted to that of a typical colony in North America. A review of the difficulties of maintaining Christian communal living in a nation that is predominantly Buddhist and Shinto concludes the paper.

  • Confessional Migration: Anabaptists – Mennonites, Hutterites, Baptists Etc
    Confessional Migration: Anabaptists – Mennonites, Hutterites, Baptists etc. by Geoffrey Dipple Lacking a durable alliance with the state anywhere in Europe, Anabaptists constituted one of the most persecuted and most mobile religious populations of the Reformation and Confessional Ages. A single, clearly defined magisterial office was also absent from the movement, and the Anabaptists' migratory experience encouraged regional variations in the movement that built on its distinct starting points and traditions. At the same time, interactions between different Anabaptist groups undermined those regional differences. The result was the formation of distinct yet inter‐related traditions that survived the Confessional Age: Mennonites, Swiss Brethren, Amish, and Hutterites. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Introduction 2.

Notes Indices Citation Introduction In many ways, Anabaptists were the quintessential confessional migrants of early modern Europe. Driven by a combination of missionary zeal and persecution, they established communities across Europe, ultimately migrating to Russia and the Americas. Perceiving themselves to be the true church in a hostile world, they usually tried to isolate themselves from the surrounding society and culture. Nonetheless, both forced and voluntary migration put Anabaptists into situations in which they had to adapt their teachings and institutions to new conditions. However, determining what developments in Anabaptist history are the result of their migratory existence is complicated by the fact that we are not dealing with a homogeneous, clearly demarcated confessional group.
