Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Germans in the United States The history of the Germans in the United States is too comprehensive a subject for a brief sketch. Yet the bare outlines of a portrait often impress the characteristic features more vividly than color and detail. The history of the Germans in this country goes back to the earliest colonial period. Recurrent waves in the eighteenth were followed by great tides of German immigration in the nineteenth century, and these carried into the population of the United States an element second in amount only to the contribution of the English stock. The year 1492 has generally been set down as the beginning of American history. Better were the selection of the date 1453, for in the taking of Constantinople by the Turks we find the causation of the discovery of America. The Turks took possession of all the passageways to the Orient, and thereby barred Europe from the profitable trade with the Far East. Immediately there arose the quest of a new passage to India, and this great aim lay at the root of all subsequent voyages of discovery. Vienna battled on land, Venice and Genoa on the sea, against the invasion of Central Europe by the Turks, while Western Europe was free to engage in exploration for a western, northwestern and southeastern route to India. Subsequently Central Europe was stirred to the depths by the Protestant Reformation; in the seventeenth century it was devastated by religious wars, the destructiveness of which was without parallel in history. In the meantime the Western European nations, those bordering on the Atlantic seacoast, grasped their opportunity. Spain and Portugal founded an empire in the South, France and England in the North of the New World. In the struggle for the possession of North America, France sent leaders and no men, from Germany there came only colonists, England sent both men and leaders, and won the prize. The palm for great discoveries must be yielded to the Genoese and Portuguese sailors. Italy, as badly decentralized as Germany, gained no advantage from her great Genoese explorers, Columbus and Cabot, who opened a new empire for Spain and England, respectively. Spain also derived the benefit from the great voyage of the Portuguese Magellan, whose expedition circumnavigated the globe and discovered the westward route to India. Portugal gained the glory and reward for opening the southeastern route to the Orient. Sailing under his country's flag, Vasco de Gama rounded the Cape of Good Hope and secured for Portugal a monopoly of the East Indian trade for nearly a century. German Cosmographers Germany was an inland country, without immediate access to the sea, and without trained navigators. Nevertheless the Germans also made a contribution during this epoch. They were the cosmographers and cartographers of Europe. Martin Behaim, one of the inventors of the astrolabe, in 1491-92 constructed a globe for his native city, Nuremberg, which still records the best of the world's geographical knowledge of that date, and proves his faith in the spherical shape of the earth before the discovery of America.

Download or read book The Germans in Colonial Times Classic Reprint written by Lucy Forney Bittinger and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Germans in Colonial Times If we would sup full of the horrors of war, pestilence and famine, or religious persecution with stake and fire and noisome prison, with midnight flight for conscience' sake, we can find these told in simple pathos in the stories of the Palatines of the Rhine, the Mennonites of Switzerland, the Moravians, or the tiny sect of the Schwenkfelders. If we would meet with good men or great, we may see here the gentle Pastorius, first pro testant against American slavery, or Conrad Weiser, whose adventurous life was largely filled with embassies to mighty Indian chiefs and nations, whom he held back from war from the white men's frontier, or, last but not least, William Penn, whose mighty figure dominates the history as its counterfeit presentment does the city he has builded beside the Delaware. And indeed time would fail us to tell of the many people and incidents, interesting, pathetic, humorous, or containing in them the germs of our present American development, which fill the annals of those Pennsylvania Germans and their kin in many States, whom the New England histo rian, Parkman, slurred over with the description, dull and ignorant boors, which character their descendants for the most part retain.

This book was released on 2017-05-18 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from German Political Refugees in the United States During the Period From 1815-1860 It would be a misapprehension of the situation if one were to infer from this lack of direct and Open influence that our national development was in no wise affected by the presence of so large a number of Germans. The. Mere com mingling of races must of necessity have had its indirect and physiological effects. Moreover, in the economic condition of the country, the German, and in particu lar the German farmer, began at an early date to teach by his example better methods to his neighbor of different stock. But these influences, exercised unconsciously, are hard to trace in detail, and could not have prevented the Ger man element from disappearing without leaving vestiges that history can record with any degree of precision. It was not till the political refugees began to furnish officers to the Teutonic host that the Germans began to play a perceptible part in the struggles of American life.

Download or read book The Relations of the People of the United States to the English and the Germans Classic Reprint written by William Vocke and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-09-23 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relations of the People of the United States to the English and the Germans European matter which is not copied bodily from English news papers, but is cabled and written for publication in the press of this country, comes from London, and since there is no direct cable line between Berlin and our country the correspondents of the American news agencies at that place send their matter to London, where, to all appearances, it is, as a rule, handled to suit the purposes of the English before it is forwarded to us. The relations between the Germans and the English have for several years past been strained, and this has been the reason why the numerous English writers employed by the daily press of this country have been so unfriendly and uncharitable towards the Germans that at times it has appeared as if all the mendacious scribblers in the whole kingdom, moved by one common impulse, had been gathered together for the sole purpose of bringing about a positive and lasting estrangement between our country and Germany. The policy of the German government, as well as the conduct of the German people and their relations towards us and other nations, have been the subject of persistent misrepre sentations and falsehoods. Actual facts have been constantly perverted, and stories have been invented and Spread among our American readers of which only the wickedest scandal-bearers could be guilty. Many of these falsehoods find their way from time to time into the editorial columns of a number of our-dailies, where they are treated as positive truths, and these papers do not hesitate at times to exhibit towards Germany the same vile Spirit which characterizes the source from which the scandals flow. When the war broke out we were gravely assured that the government, the press and the people of Germany were bitterly hostile towards us and that the government was, endeavoring to get up a combination of powers to interfere in favor of Spain. When this lie was properly nailed our people were constantly assured that but for the friendly attitude of England the con tinental powers, with Germany in the lead, would have inter fered, and that hence we owed England a large debt of gratitude. It need hardly be stated that these assumptions never had any more substantial a basis than the unwarranted assertions of the corrupt English newsmongers. The fact that at the very begin ning of our contest England issued a formal declaration of neutrality, which some of the continental powers did not do, because their past conduct required no particular assurance of good faith, was treated by a large part of the press as evidencethat the former was sincerely friendly, while all the others would bear watching. Our people should not forget that at the out break of our civil war, the government of England was the very first that issued a similar proclamation, and how shamefully that government as well as its people violated the pledge of neutrality during that most trying period of our country's history. At that time England, with Napoleon III. At its side, was all powerful, while Germany was politically weak and distracted. England's attempts to impose her attitude upon Germany then were unsuc cessful; it is not very likely, therefore, that, since Germany has become united and strong, such efforts would be of any avail now, when beyond the Anglomaniacs in this country, she is with out a friend in the world and almost without a voice in the European councils.
