* Item Description
- From 1834 until the close of the nineteenth century, after Gottfried Duden published a book in which he compared the Missouri River to the Rhine in Germany and praised the mild climate on the Missouri frontier, thousands of Germans immigrated to the state. These new immigrants brought their culture and language with them and changed the landscape of Missouri history. German Language in Mid-Missouri offers a brief history of Germans in Mid-Missouri and a study in how the German dialects of Osage and Cole counties have borrowed, repurposed and incorporated American English words and phrases. Additionally, the publication presents the viewer with illustrations, paintings, historical photographs, German language publications from Missouri, and charts.
