| Abstract | Friesen's paper (first delivered at an MLA convention) discusses Mignon's song in Goethe's Wilhelm Meister as it relates to both the Heimweh and utopian view of America experienced by German-Americans in the 19th century. He also evaluates the uses of the motif by various German-American authors: Knortz, Karl, 1841-1918/Sattler, Otto/Weitling, Wilhelm, 1808-1871/Robinson, Therese Albertine Louise/Sealsfield, Charles (Postl, Karl), 1793-1864/Smith, Jakob (aka Schmidt)/Castelhun, Friedrich Karl |
