Das Ohiotal - The Ohio Valley

The German Dimension. Edited by Don Heinrich Tolzmann.

Proceedings of the Symposium Commemorating German American Day 1990 at the University of Cincinnati, Ohio, 1990. Given the cultural influence of German immigration and settlement not only on the Midwest in general, but on the Ohio Valley and its six adjacent federal states specifically, the contributors set out to attract scholarly attention to this important aspect of American history and discuss various points of further inquiry. The 16 contributions are organized into five thematic sections: "Old and New World Dimensions", "Literary, Linguistic, and Architectural Dimensions", "Socio-Political Dimensions", "Educational Dimensions" and "Religious Dimensions". An appendix contains reproductions of the symposium's timetable and the US Senate's joint resolution designating October 6, 1990, as "German-American Day".
