When Sweden invaded Poland, in June 1655, it went to war with an army which reflected not only the state’s military and cultural strengths but also its fiscal weaknesses. During 1655 the Swedes won great successes in Poland and captured most of the country. But a series of military decisions transformed the Swedish army from a concentrated, combined-arms force into a mobile but widely dispersed force. -

A geographic area whose topography has been shaped by the great Scandinavian glacier of the Vistula ice age from 20000 BC to 13 000 BC will thus be reflected upon.

Swedish Pomerania All of My Life, I Have Held That Belief That My Mother’S Family, the Gast and Knitter Families Came from Germany and Were Therefore, German
Swedish Pomerania All of my life, I have held that belief that my mother’s family, the Gast and Knitter families came from Germany and were therefore, German. I have ship records of the families leaving Stolp, Germany for England and then across the Atlantic Ocean to the United States. We also know that Stolp which is on the border of Germany and Poland has been held by both countries. I have records from my cousin Neoma Laken of a German bible in the Gast family. I have records showing that the Gast family spoke German when they arrived in Minnesota. However, based on DNA results from Ancestry, MyHeritage and 23and Me, I show over 50 percent Norwegian and at least 25 percent Swedish ancestry and very little from what we now know as Germany or Poland. The two families settled in an entirely Scandinavian Marsh Grove township in Marshall County, Minnesota. In one of her stories Neoma wondered why two German families would settle in that area rather than one of mostly German families. So, of course, I had to do more research and what I found is interesting and may explain it all. Svenska Pommern in Swedish means Swedish Pommern in English and was a Dominion under Swedish rule from 1630 to 1815. The Treaty of Stettin in 1630 gave Sweden the area plus the islands of Rugen, Usedom and Wolin. Swedish King Gustavus Adolphus invaded Europe in the early 1600s and as part of the peace treaty was given parts of Germany including Pomerania. Since Pomerania was ruled by the Swedish King, he gave parts of Pomerania to some of his noblemen, who moved to Pomerania, settled and intermarried with local nobility. -
Baltic Towns030306
The State and the Integration of the Towns of the Provinces of the Swedish Baltic Empire The Purpose of the Paper1 between 1561 and 1660, Sweden expanded Dalong the coasts of the Baltic Sea and throughout Scandinavia. Sweden became the dominant power in the Baltics and northern Europe, a position it would maintain until the early eighteenth century. At the same time, Swedish society was experiencing a profound transformation. Sweden developed into a typical European early modern power-state with a bureaucracy, a powerful mili- tary organization, and a peasantry bending under taxes and conscription. The kingdom of Sweden also changed from a self-contained country to an important member of the European economy. During this period the Swedish urban system developed as well. From being one of the least urbanized European countries with hardly more than 40 towns and an urbanization level of three to four per cent, Sweden doubled the number of towns and increased the urbanization level to almost ten per cent. The towns were also forced by the state into a staple-town system with differing roles in fo- reign and domestic trade, and the administrative and governing systems of the towns were reformed according to royal initiatives. In the conquered provinces a number of other towns now came under Swe- dish rule. These towns were treated in different ways by the state, as were the pro- vinces as a whole. While the former Danish and Norwegian towns were complete- ly incorporated into the Swedish nation, the German and most of the east Baltic towns were not. -
Apostolic Discourse and Christian Identity in Anglo-Saxon Literature
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Illinois Digital Environment for Access to Learning and Scholarship Repository APOSTOLIC DISCOURSE AND CHRISTIAN IDENTITY IN ANGLO-SAXON LITERATURE BY SHANNON NYCOLE GODLOVE DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2010 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Charles D. Wright, Chair Associate Professor Renée Trilling Associate Professor Robert W. Barrett Professor Emerita Marianne Kalinke ii ABSTRACT “Apostolic Discourse and Christian Identity in Anglo-Saxon Literature” argues that Anglo-Saxon religious writers used traditions about the apostles to inspire and interpret their peoples’ own missionary ambitions abroad, to represent England itself as a center of religious authority, and to articulate a particular conception of inspired authorship. This study traces the formation and adaptation of apostolic discourse (a shared but evolving language based on biblical and literary models) through a series of Latin and vernacular works including the letters of Boniface, the early vitae of the Anglo- Saxon missionary saints, the Old English poetry of Cynewulf, and the anonymous poem Andreas. This study demonstrates how Anglo-Saxon authors appropriated the experiences and the authority of the apostles to fashion Christian identities for members of the emerging English church in the seventh and eighth centuries, and for vernacular religious poets and their readers in the later Anglo-Saxon period. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am indebted to many people for their help and support throughout the duration of this dissertation project. -

Relaciones que hasta ahora nunca han sido analizadas. El estudio se centra principalmente entre los años 1797-1807, periodo en donde abundan documentos acerca de los rituales de trabajo, la organización y las ideologías de las logias. Por último, un aporte fundamental de esta investigación está en que por primera son utilizadas fuentes acerca de la orden masónica sueca presentes en los archivos de la logia La Sudermanie de la capital de San Bartolomé, Gustavia. Abstract This paper deals with the establishment of freemasonry on St. Barthélemy, its connections to the Swedish Grand Lodge, its membership structure and activities mainly between 1797 and 1807. -
Denmark and the Duchy of Schleswig 1587-1920
Denmark and the Duchy of Schleswig 1587-1920 The making of modern Denmark The Duchy of Schleswig Hertugdømmet Slesvig Herzogthum Schleswig c. 1821 The President’s Display to The Royal Philatelic Society London 18th June 2015 Chris King RDP FRPSL 8th July 1587, Entire letter sent from Eckernförde to Stralsund. While there was no formal postal service at this time, the German Hanseatic towns had a messenger service from Hamburg via Lübeck, Rostock, Stettin, Danzig and Königsberg to Riga, and this may have been the service used to carry this letter. RPSL Denmark and the Duchy of Schleswig 1587-1920 The Duchy of Schleswig: Background Speed/Kaerius, 1666-68, from “A Prospect of the Most Famous Parts of the World” The Duchies of Slesvig (Schleswig in German) and Holstein were associated with the Danish Crown from the 15th century, until the Second Schleswig War of 1864 and the seizure by Prussia and Austria. From around 1830 sections of the population began to identify with German or Danish nationality and political movements followed. In Denmark, the National Liberal Party used the Schleswig question as part of their programme and demanded that the Duchy be incorporated in the Danish kingdom under the slogan “Denmark to the Eider". This caused a conflict between Denmark and the German states, which led to the Schleswig-Holstein Question of the 19th century. When the National Liberals came to power in Denmark, in 1848, it provoked an uprising of ethnic Germans who supported Schleswig's ties with Holstein. This led to the First Schleswig War. Denmark was victorious, although more through politics than strength of arms. -

He laughs about the comment now. And why shouldn’t he? Folmer immigrated to the United States as a 19-year- old in 1950 carrying only a suitcase and plans to marry Vera Lodahl, a second generation Dane from Dagmar, Montana. They married. They built several success- ful businesses. They raised three children. They have grandchildren, even great-grandchildren. They enjoy Folmer and Vera Nyby met in Denmark in 1948. Vera grew their home by a lake in Indiana. They drive to Arizona up in Dagmar, Montana, the daughter of Danish immigrant for the winter. And, then, the Nybys spend time at their parents. While visiting Denmark, she met Folmer at a dance in his hometown of Vestervig. The picture of Vera was taken summer home in Denmark—just down the road from in Denmark in 1948 so that Folmer could have it when she Vestervig, the town where Folmer was born. returned home to the United States.

Andreas Wormser, Immigrant Locator and Land Developer
Building castles in the air : Andreas Wormser, immigrant locator and land developer by Delbert Delos Van Den Berg A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Montana State University © Copyright by Delbert Delos Van Den Berg (1996) Abstract: Andrew Wormser was the father of Dutch communities in southwestern Montana, and his promotion of immigrant settlement in the West contributed to the establishment of Dutch communities throughout the Intermountain area. Transformed from an idealistic missionary into a immigrant locator and pioneer real estate developer, Andrew's colonization attempts were choreographed by his family's heritage, and complicated by a lifestyle that created illusions of grandeur. Andrew attempted to secure a place in America's upper class by creating a personal fortune from his development schemes in Montana, but he failed to achieve his goals when he disregarded the economic and environmental realities of the frontier. Andrew's failed development schemes, however, are turned into a success when his dream of empire is redefined as a lasting imprint on the human and physical landscape of the Intermountain West. My research of Andrew Wormser's life and entrepreneurial activities consisted of an analysis of archival material, government documents, primary and secondary sources, personal interviews, and on site visits to Wormser City and Big Timber, Montana, and Wenatchee, Washington. The Montana Historical Society Library; Merrill G. Burlingame Special Collections at Montana State University, Bozeman; Hope College Archives and the Heritage Collection, Holland, MI; and Heritage Hall and Colonial Origins Collection of the Christian Reformed Church, Calvin College, Grand Rapids, MI, proved very valuable to my research. -
