Book A Pennsylvania German Reader and Grammar

Download or read book A Pennsylvania German Reader and Grammar written by Earl C. Haag and published by Penn State University Press. This book was released on 1982 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the language (Pennsylvania German, Dutch, or Deitsch) developed by the settlers brought to Pennsylvania from the Rhine Valley by William Penn. The settlers' dialects evolved into a formal language which has been spoken and read for three centuries throughout much of Pennsylvania and more recently, in parts of the Middle and Far West, and Canada. This book contains 13 readings--on such topics as school, house, farm, and town, as well as dates, weather, body parts, and clothing--each with the translations on facing pages and followed by vocabulary and grammatical rules. By the end of the book all major rules of grammar have been covered together with a substantial working vocabulary. An introduction gives an overview of the language and a guide to pronunciation; an appendix presents practice patterns for the serious student; and an index leads to definitions of all vocabulary words.

  • ISBN : 9781794886506
  • Pages : 184 pages

Download or read book Pennsylvania Dutch Design written by Rachel E. Yoder and published by . This book was released on 2021-10-28 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is amazing how authentic and traditional PA Dutch folk artists maintained and sold their work throughout the low price kitsch popularity boom. This shows the commitment to these traditions by the folk artists. It is ironic that the same kitsch products that could have jeopardized the practice of PA Dutch folk artists may instead have served to preserve and spread PA Dutch influence and made it more recognizable. PA Dutch folk art isn't dying out anytime soon. But as a living art form, it continues to grow and expand as the times change and the materials change. The time may be ripe for an update to the affordable marketing of mass produced PA Dutch patterns.

Book Pennsylvania Dutch Cook Book

Download or read book Pennsylvania Dutch Cook Book written by J. George Frederick and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2012-05-07 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visitors to the Pennsylvania Dutch country in Pennsylvania are usually delighted with the unique food tradition that survives there among the hills and small, well-tended farms. Ultimately based on the rich cookery of the peasants and small townspeople of the Rhineland and Switzerland, "Dutch" cookery has expanded into the new foodstuffs and materials that America has to offer, and it is one of the gastronomic treats of the country. Dishes such as apple soup, baked bananas, Dutch liver dumplings, spaetzle and braten, walnut shad, and oyster peppers are enjoyed by almost everyone. One of the difficulties about Dutch cookery, however, is that is always has been a home cooking style within a closely knit community, and it does not go by cookbooks. Until this book appeared, the best that one could do was to try to cadge an occasional recipe from a Dutch acquaintance or a local inn. Mr. George Frederick, one-time president of the Gourmet Society of New York, was in an unmatched position to record the delights of Dutch cookery. Himself a native Pennsylvania Dutchman, with access to countless kitchens and family cooking secrets, he was also a gourmet of international stature. He has gathered together 358 recipes that show the Dutch tradition at its strongest, all dishes with the unique savor that distinguishes them from their occasional counterparts in other cooking systems. His book is so good that it in turn has been taken over by many Pennsylvania resorts as the official cookbook. To list only a few of the mouthwatering recipes that Mr. Frederick gives in clear, accurate recipes that you can prepare: Dutch spiced cucumbers, raspberry sago soup, pretzel soup, squab with dumplings Nazareth, shrimp wiggle, Dutch beer eel, sherry sauerkraut, cheese custard, currant cakes, and many fine dumplings, pancakes, and soups . All types of food are covered.

Book Powwowing Among the Pennsylvania Dutch

Download or read book Powwowing Among the Pennsylvania Dutch written by David W. Kriebel and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Known in Pennsylvania Dutch as brauche or braucherei, the folk-healing practice of powwowing was thought to draw upon the power of God to heal all manner of physical and spiritual ills. Yet some people believed, and still believe today, that this power to heal came not from God, but from the devil. Controversy over powwowing came to a climax in 1929 with the York Hex Murder Trial, in which one powwower from York County, Pennsylvania, killed another powwower (who, he believed, had placed a hex on him). In Powwowing Among the Pennsylvania Dutch, David Kriebel examines the practice of powwowing in a scholarly light and shows that, contrary to popular belief, the practice of powwowing is still active today. Because powwowing lacks extensive scholarly documentation, David Kriebel&’s research is both a groundbreaking inquiry and a necessity for the scholar of Pennsylvania German history and culture. The fact that powwowing is still practiced may come as a surprise to some readers, but included in this book are the interviews Kriebel had with living powwowers during his seven years of fieldwork in southeastern and central Pennsylvania. Along with these interviews, Kriebel includes biographical sketches of seven living powwowers; descriptions of powwowing as it was practiced in years past, compared with the practice today; a discussion of the belief of powwowing as healing; and a discussion of the future, if any, of powwowing, and what it will take for powwowing to continue to survive.

Book Folk Religion of the Pennsylvania Dutch

Download or read book Folk Religion of the Pennsylvania Dutch written by Richard L.T. Orth and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For almost three centuries, the "Pennsylvania Dutch"--descended from German immigrants--have practiced white magic, known in their dialect as Braucherei (from the German "brauchen," to use) or Powwowing. The tradition was brought by immigrants from the Rhineland and Switzerland in the 17th and 18th centuries, when they settled in Pennsylvania and in other areas of what is now the eastern United States and Canada. Practitioners draw on folklore and tradition dating to the turn of the 19th century, when healers like Mountain Mary--canonized as a saint for her powers--arrived in the New World. The author, a member of the Pennsylvania Dutch community, describes in detail the practices, culture and history of faith healers and witches.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Out of the culure of the Pennsylvania Germans comes a tradition of faith healing and folk magic known as Powwow. Rooted in the grimoires of the Medieval Catholic church and preserved amongst the early settlers of Pennsylvania, Powwwoing has endured for over two hundred years as a collection of charms, spells, cures, and practices that are used to heal, combat witchcraft, protect the homestead and exemplify the power of faith in God. Robert Chapman, expert on the tradition of Powwowing, presents an in-depth look at the practices of the Powwow Doctor; including healing charms, protection charms, ceremonial magic circles, divination, herbalism, astrology, anti-witchcraft charms, and more. This is the most comprehnsive how-to guide on the subject in the spirit of the old grimoires and a must read for the would-be Powwower"--Back cover.
