AbstractThis German-American Studies course taught in German offers information about the broad spectrum of Germanlanguage and German immigrant life in the U.S. It covers such topics as the Forty-eighters, labor movement leaders, Anabaptists, Russian Germans, Danube Swabians, and others. Highlighted in addition are the roles played by religion, bilingual schools, German publishing, and the contributions of major German personalities in politics, the arts, and industry. Concepts of chain migration, assimilation, and a multi-ethnic America provide the theoretical background of the subject matter.
