Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of College Life: At Marshall College, Mercersburg, Pa;, From 1839 to 1845: A Narrative, With Reflections The work here introduced to the public is one which, in our judgment, will not fail to interest the reader. It invites attention first of all from those who were in any way connected with Marshall College, and the Theological Seminary which shared in its early struggles. It will be read with interest also by the members of the Reformed Church generally, as it gives a history of the founding and trials of these first literary and theological institutions established by that Church in this country. But it may fairly challenge attention on the part of a wider public also, which may be interested in the history and genius of a branch of the Reformed Church of the sixteenth century, in its earlier development in this new world. And we do not overestimate it, we think, when we predict that it will be read with interest by those who appreciate a work of this kind for its literary character, and its able treatment of subjects that pertain to the general culture of the times. All who have any adequate acquaintance with the Reformed Church will feel, in reading these pages, that the founding of its literary and theological institutions at Mercersburg, was an epoch in its history in this country. The Church had, indeed, made considerable progress previous to this time in gathering its scattered membership into congregations, and in perfecting its organization by the formation of Synods and Classes; but it still lacked those appliances that are necessary to a denomination that would perpetuate its existence, and do its proper work in its literary and theological culture, - a College and Seminary. These came late, it is true, in the history of the Reformed Church in the United States, as compared with the work of other religious bodies, whose institutions were already large and flourishing. But the history of the German population of Pennsylvania, with their early trials and struggles, is sufficient to afford some reasonable excuse for this tardiness. It was a period of heroic endeavor, however humble and limited the plans and labors were which resulted in the founding of these institutions. Nor can we regret, now that they are safely over and crowned with success, the peculiar difficulties that were encountered in that day of small things.

Download or read book Foreigners in Their Own Land written by Steven M. Nolt and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians of the early Republic are just beginning to tell the stories of the period&’s ethnic minorities. In Foreigners in Their Own Land, Steven M. Nolt is the first to add the story of the Pennsylvania Germans to that larger mosaic, showing how they came to think of themselves as quintessential Americans and simultaneously constructed a durable sense of ethnicity. The Lutheran and Reformed Pennsylvania German populations of eastern Pennsylvania, Maryland, and the Appalachian backcountry successfully combined elements of their Old World tradition with several emerging versions of national identity. Many took up democratic populist rhetoric to defend local cultural particularity and ethnic separatism. Others wedded certain American notions of reform and national purpose to Continental traditions of clerical authority and idealized German virtues. Their experience illustrates how creating and defending an ethnic identity can itself be a way of becoming American. Though they would maintain a remarkably stable and identifiable subculture well into the twentieth century, Pennsylvania Germans were, even by the eve of the Civil War, the most &"inside&" of &"outsiders.&" They represent the complex and often paradoxical ways in which many Americans have managed the process of assimilation to their own advantage. Given their pioneering role in that process, their story illuminates the path that other immigrants and ethnic Americans would travel in the decades to follow.
Download or read book Buchanan Dying written by John Updike and published by Random House Trade Paperbacks. This book was released on 2013-04-09 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the list of John Updike’s well-intentioned protagonists—Rabbit Angstrom, Richard Maple, Henry Bech—add James Buchanan, the harried fifteenth president of the United States (1857–1861). In what the author calls “a kind of novel, conceived in the form of a play,” Buchanan’s political and private lives are represented as aspects of his spiritual life, whose crowning, condensing act is the act of dying. This definitive edition includes a Foreword by Updike, discussing early productions of the work, the historical context in which it was written, and its kinship to his later novel Memories of the Ford Administration. A wide-ranging Afterword fleshes out this dramatic portrait of one of America’s lesser known, and least appreciated, leaders.
