The Society is most grateful to the German Historical Institute for generously sponsoring this revised edition. The first edition of the Research Guide was written after the completion of a five year project that aimed to catalog the book and pamphlet holdings of the library. In the decade since the guide was originally published, there has been a great deal of progress in cataloging, organizing and processing the remaining parts of the collections, making a revision to the original research guide necessary. Almost all the books in the Main and German American collections have now been cataloged and are retrievable through Worldcat (www.Worldcat.org ) and the Society’s own catalog (gsp.library.net). Other areas of the collections are not yet represented in the catalog, so this research guide aims to provide access to those “hidden treasures” by offering descriptions and inventories to those items. Pamphlets, manuscripts and ephemera have been organized and inventories created for each box. A comprehensive list of uncataloged newspapers and periodicals has also been created. The most progress has been in the area of manuscripts, with many manuscript collections having been arranged and described, and complete finding aids now available. This part of the library’s holdings had been very minimally processed at the writing of the original guide, and while many collections, most notably the German Society’s own records, are now much more accessible, the work is ongoing and manuscripts continue to be added to the catalog. History and Brief Overview of the Collections The Joseph P. Horner Memorial Library is the preserved Volksbibliothek of the German Society of Pennsylvania. The library flourished throughout the 19th century and books were actively collected until the 1960s. It contains over 50,000 volumes, spanning the 16th through 20th centuries, with the vast majority published in the 19th century. Approximately 90 percent are in the German language (the majority of the English language holdings having been deaccessioned). The Society was founded in Philadelphia in 1764 with the objective of aiding newly arrived German-speaking immigrants. In 1817, a library was established to provide reading materials to its members and other German-speaking Philadelphians. In 1839, the library’s holdings were cataloged into seven groupings: Theology, History, Moral Sciences, Physical Sciences, Geography and Travel, Art, and Literature. During the middle third of the century, the collection grew modestly with English-language acquisitions predominating. This reflected the fact that between 1818 and 2 1859 English served as the official language of the society.1 In 1860, German was re- established as the official language of the Society, and German-language books again predominated in the library. By the late 1860s, the library, then under the stewardship of Oswald Seidensticker, regained its distinctively German character.2 Seidensticker (1825– 1894), a professor of German at the University of Pennsylvania since 1867, chaired both the Society’s Library and Archive Committees. It was Seidensticker’s establishment of the Archives as a repository of German-American print culture that makes the library of the German Society of Pennsylvania the valuable resource it is today. The Main Collection of the library has been housed in its current location since 1888. From 1994 to 1999, University of Pennsylvania Germanic Languages Professor Frank Trommler and Director of Bryn Mawr College Libraries Elliott Shore led a restoration and cataloging project of the library’s holdings, with funding from the German Foreign Office, Fritz Thyssen Foundation, Robert Bosch Foundation, Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation and the University of Pennsylvania. As a result of this project, over 20,000 volumes were cataloged into the Research Libraries Information Network (RLIN). Many of the books were also cleaned and repaired. The library also underwent extensive renovation between February 1998 and September 1999, with much needed climate control being added. In 2007, the Research Libraries Group was merged with OCLC, and all the RLIN records were transferred to the Worldcat database (www.Worldcat.org). Since that time, cataloging of books and pamphlets has continued with support from the government of North Rhine-Westphalia and the Max Kade Foundation. All non-fiction works published through 1960 have now been cataloged. The books and most of the pamphlets in the German American Collection have been cataloged. The primary areas that remain to be addressed are the uncataloged books in the Carl Schurz collection and a review of the post-1917 fiction section of the Main library. The original Archive started by Oswald Seidensticker, now known as the German American Collection (GAC), consists of over 10,000 items. As a part of the restoration project of the 1 Trommler, Frank. “The Library of the German Society of Pennsylvania and Its Consoliation under Oswald Seidensticker,” in: Atlantic Understandings: Essays in honor of Hermann Wellenreuther, ed. Claudia Schnurmann and Hartmut Lehmann (Hamburg: LitVerlag, 2006.) 2 Seidensticker, Oswald. Die Geschichte der Deutschen Gesellschaft von Pennsylvanien. (Philadelphia : Graf & Breuninger, 1917.) A new history of the Society was sponsored and published by the German Historical Institute in 2006: Pfleger, Birte. Ethnicty Matters: A History of the German Society of Pennsylvania. 3 1990s, the entire GAC collection was sent to the Northeast Document Conservation Center in Andover, Massachusetts. All items were cleaned and many were repaired or rehoused. Almost all the books and pamphlets in the GAC are now cataloged and can be searched in the online catalog. Manuscripts were not cataloged/described during the restoration project of the 1990s but many have since been processed, with finding aids available for approximately 70% of the collections. The library is generally organized into three collections: the Main Collection, the German American Collection and the Carl Schurz Collection. However, this revised research guide is organized by material type instead of collection, as not all the materials fall neatly into one collection or another. There has been some fluidity over the years, with books being moved from one part of the collection to another. For example, while the majority of books acquired from the National Carl Schurz Association remain as a discrete collection, some titles were integrated into the Main and German American Collections. (The entire Carl Schurz book collection can be “virtually” reassembled, however, by searching “donor=National Carl Schurz Association” in the library’s online catalog.) At some point in time, books printed in the United States were pulled out of the Main collection and added to the German American Collection although this seems not to have been done comprehensively. In addition, periodicals are found in all parts of the library, and manuscript collections were, for the most part, never given call numbers or incorporated into any of the collections, though most of the content relates to German-American individuals and organizations. Newspapers and periodicals have been arranged into two groups: 1) a microfilm collection of newspapers that is stored within the Library Hall and 2) bound volumes of periodicals that have been separated into two groupings: German-American imprints, and German imprints. In early 2015, the original copies of newspapers for which the Society has microfilm were given to the University of Pennsylvania library, which has digitized those titles and will make them available through its website in 2016. (There are additional newspapers scattered throughout other parts of the library that have been cataloged, but most consist of individual issues, rather than extended runs.) 4 BOOKS Main Collection The Main Collection is a model of nineteenth-century German Bildung. Originally, books were acquired in English and German in roughly equal numbers. A reading of the catalog reveals that all of the traditional arts and sciences are covered. Many of the entries can be found in university libraries. However, it should be noted that when the catalogers were entering the books into the Research Library Information Network (RLIN), they found a large number that were unique to the collection. This is due to the peculiar “popular” character of the library. From its inception, the library was to be a Volksbibliothek. Its books were to be read by the members of the Society and the German-speaking community. As a result, the holdings reflect more the interests of the common man than of the scholar.

Positing Jewish emancipation as a trans-historical and cultural process, my study traces the poetic journey of a particular set of Orientalist tropes from 19th century ghetto stories to contemporary writings and film at the turn of the millennium to address a twofold question: what could this problematic method of representation accomplish for Germany’s Jewish minority in the past, and how do we understand its re-appropriation by Germany’s “new Jewry” today.

    NEW CITIZENS: GERMAN IMMIGRANTS, AFRICAN AMERICANS, AND THE RECONSTRUCTION OF CITIZENSHIP, 1865-1877 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Alison Clark Efford, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2008 Doctoral Examination Committee: Professor John L. Brooke, Adviser Approved by Professor Mitchell Snay ____________________________ Adviser Professor Michael L. Benedict Department of History Graduate Program Professor Kevin Boyle ABSTRACT This work explores how German immigrants influenced the reshaping of American citizenship following the Civil War and emancipation. It takes a new approach to old questions: How did African American men achieve citizenship rights under the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments? Why were those rights only inconsistently protected for over a century? German Americans had a distinctive effect on the outcome of Reconstruction because they contributed a significant number of votes to the ruling Republican Party, they remained sensitive to European events, and most of all, they were acutely conscious of their own status as new American citizens. Drawing on the rich yet largely untapped supply of German-language periodicals and correspondence in Missouri, Ohio, and Washington, D.C., I recover the debate over citizenship within the German-American public sphere and evaluate its national ramifications. Partisan, religious, and class differences colored how immigrants approached African American rights. Yet for all the divisions among German Americans, their collective response to the Revolutions of 1848 and the Franco-Prussian War and German unification in 1870 and 1871 left its mark on the opportunities and disappointments of Reconstruction.

  • Leadership in Social Movements: Evidence from the “Forty-Eighters”
    American Economic Review 2021, 111(2): 1–35 https://doi.org/10.1257/aer.20191137 Leadership in Social Movements: Evidence from the “Forty-Eighters” in the Civil War† By Christian Dippel and Stephan Heblich* This paper studies the role of leaders in the social movement against slavery that culminated in the US Civil War. Our analysis is orga- nized around a natural experiment: leaders of the failed German rev- olution of 1848–1849 were expelled to the United States and became antislavery campaigners who helped mobilize Union Army volun- teers. Towns where Forty-Eighters settled show two-thirds higher Union Army enlistments. Their influence worked through local newspapers and social clubs. Going beyond enlistment decisions, Forty-Eighters reduced their companies’ desertion rate during the war. In the long run, Forty-Eighter towns were more likely to form a local chapter of the NAACP. JEL D74, J15, J45, J61, N31, N41 ( ) Between 1861 and 1865, the United States’ North and South fought each other over the issue of slavery in the American Civil War. One in five adult men, 2.2 mil- lion in the North alone, took up arms to fight in the Union Army. Fighting was costly on both sides. In total, 620,000 men lost their lives, as many as in all other American wars combined Hacker 2011, Costa and Kahn 2003 . At the same time, the finan- ( ) cial incentives to fight in the war were low. Union Army privates earned about $13 per month, less than a farmhand Edmunds 1866 , and payment was irregular. In the ( ) South, there were stronger economic motives at least for some, since the war was about the survival of Southern institutions and property Hall, Huff, and Kuriwaki ( 2019 .

  • Partitive Article
    Book Disentangling bare nouns and nominals introduced by a partitive article IHSANE, Tabea (Ed.) Abstract The volume Disentangling Bare Nouns and Nominals Introduced by a Partitive Article, edited by Tabea Ihsane, focuses on different aspects of the distribution, semantics, and internal structure of nominal constituents with a “partitive article” in its indefinite interpretation and of potentially corresponding bare nouns. It further deals with diachronic issues, such as grammaticalization and evolution in the use of “partitive articles”. The outcome is a snapshot of current research into “partitive articles” and the way they relate to bare nouns, in a cross-linguistic perspective and on new data: the research covers noteworthy data (fieldwork data and corpora) from Standard languages - like French and Italian, but also German - to dialectal and regional varieties, including endangered ones like Francoprovençal.

The paper discusses: (1) Structure and framework conditions of the German media (a historical review of the mass media since 1945); (2) Press (including its particular reliance on local news and the creation of the world status media group, Bertelsmann AG);(3) News agencies and public relations work (which insure a "never-ending stream" of information);(4) Radio and Television (with emphasis on the Federal Republic's surprisingly large number of radio stations--public, commercial, and "guest");(5) New communication paths and media (especially communication and broadcasting satellites and cable in wideband-channel networks);(6) The profession of journalist (which still relies on on-the-job training rather than university degrees); and (7) Help for the media in the Third World (professional training in Germany of journalists and technical experts from underdeveloped countries appears to be the most appropriate way to promote Third World media).

    Mind the Gaps: Serial Media Forms and the Affective Work of Audiences by Anne Mecklenburg A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (English Language and Literature) in the University of Michigan 2020 Doctoral Committee: Professor Adela Pinch, Co-Chair Professor Yeidy Rivero, Co-Chair Professor Daniel Hack Associate Professor Daniel Herbert Anne Mecklenburg [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0003-1268-1272 © Anne Mecklenburg 2020 Acknowledgements Revising this project during a stay-at-home order was a daunting, isolating, and sometimes frightening prospect, especially because my work as a graduate student has been sustained for so many years by the communities I have found here at Michigan and throughout my life. How could I contemplate a dissertation on form and community when the only person I saw for days on end was my cat (who incidentally, does not give good writing feedback)? Of course, as I learned over the past couple months, many Zoom calls and track-changes-enabled Google Docs later, all the support and solidarity I had learned to rely on during my first six years at Michigan was still there. First, I would like to thank my dissertation committee. My co-chairs, Adela Pinch and Yeidy Rivero, encouraged me to write towards my weirdest questions, trusted me as I figured out the shape and dimensions of this thing I was writing, and helped me see it clearly, in all its possibilities. Whenever I talked with Adela, Yeidy, Danny Hack, and Dan Herbert, their comments always reflected back to me a better version of the project than what I’d written, while also giving me exactly the kind of feedback I needed, to help me move toward what I most wanted it to be.

A few new varie- ties were added to the original group, but for the most part these trees have been growing there s~nce the trial plot was first laid out. The collection has been of special interest to home owners in the suburban areas of Boston, who naturally are interested in small ornamental trees. It has also been of considerable interest to the tree wardens of various towns throughout New England, for here one may see many of the best small trees growing side by side, so that comparisons can be easily made. Recently this plot has been of interest to the Electric Council of New England, a group of utility companies which provide various electric services for the public in addition to stringing electric lines for these services. When the right kinds of trees are planted properly in the right places along the streets and highways, there need be but little competition between the trees and the wires.

  • No. 56. P E R S O N a L Ideas About the Application of the International
    Mededeelingen 's Rijks Herbarium Leiden No. 56. Personal ideas about the application of theInternationa l Ruleso f Nomenclature, or, as with the Rules themselves, Inter­ national deliberation? II. Some denominations of Dicotyledonous Trees and Shrubs species. With a Retrospection and a set of Propositions on the Nomenclature-Rules BY Dr. J. VALCKENIER SÜRINGAR, retired prof, of the Agricultural Academy in the Netherlands. INTRODUCTION. This second Part has its origin principally in Dr. ALFRED REHDER'S "Manual of Cultivated Trees and Shrubs" 1927. That admirable work contains several revolutionary looking changes of names, which changes partly were already propagated in BAILEY'S works of the last years; and I have made a study of those names, beside others. The result is that I cannot in many cases join with REHDER'S new-old names and principles. But when I therefore criticise in all those cases REHDER'S opinion, the reader must not think thereby that I criticise REHDER'S work as a whole. I criticise the names and principles only because I think that these changes and principles are unfavourable with respect to the world's effort to obtain unity of plantnomenclature; and I don't think about criticizing the work as a whole. REHDER'S "Manual" is the result of long and arduous work; it is in its relative size the most complete, the sharpest as to the characters, the newest and most usable of all Dendrological works existing. No Dendrologist, even no Botanist, who has to do with Trees and Shrubs, can do without it. Readers, who wish eventually to obtain corrigenda and addenda to this paper or to the first part of it, are requested to communicate with the writer, who will be moreover thankful for hints and observations.
