International travel and service to the environment
is now attainable for Wilson College faculty and
students, thanks to the generosity of Joan Thuebel
’52. Since 2007, Thuebel has sponsored faculty and
students interested in volunteering for EarthWatch, an
international nonprofit organization that supports
expeditions performing research in many scientific
fields, all over the world. The organization’s research is
related to sustainable development and is conducted
by leading scientists. The programs provide support in
areas that are normally under-represented or under-
funded, like women in science, developing countries
and long-term monitoring projects.
Every year, over $6 million is awarded in research
grants, and it is partly funded by volunteers like Thuebel.
Anyone over the age of 16, who has the desire to help
and can meet the physical demands, can participate in

as many as 70 research projects. Thuebel’s first expedition was in
1980, and she has volunteered for 27 projects since.
Although Thuebel was an English major at Wilson, she is very
interested in biology and science. “I’m curious about science, and
this was an opportunity to learn about science without going
to school.” Thuebel also has an interest in international travels,
but especially enjoys visiting places that aren’t tourist destina-
tions. Through a friend, Helen Louise Schaufler ’52, also a Wilson
alumna, Thuebel learned of Earthwatch. “She liked raccoons and
there was a raccoon study on an island off the state of Georgia.
I had already been on vacation that year, so we decided to go
together the next summer.” However, the next summer came and
the raccoon study had ended. Instead, the two went to Gibraltar
to study apes. It would be the first EarthWatch trip of many for
Thuebel, both in the U.S. and abroad.
Thuebel explains that EarthWatch doesn’t expect you to know
anything about the subject, as long as you have a desire to help and
work to collect data. “You’re there to help researchers immersed
in the subject,” she explains. One of the many trips that Thuebel
has participated in was an insect project in the Amazon. “I just
wanted to go to the Amazon. Now after the trip, I’ve found myself
researching beetles, and they are fascinating!” Thuebel says that
EarthWatch opens doors: to the country, the culture, the history
and to science. EarthWatch is also great for people interested in
the sciences, like biology and ecology. It gives them exposure to
research and allows them a chance to see if they are interested in
entering the field for a career.
“The most exotic trip I was on was to Borneo. We tracked wild
orangutans, and it was the hardest, most demanding venture,”
says Thuebel. “Most trips you’re recording what you see. I’ve been
to the Amazon three times now, the last trip on a river boat. We
counted land mammals, like spider monkeys, and pink and gray
river dolphins during the day and caiman crocodiles at night. We’d
look for their eyes in the water.”
Thuebel has had such a good time and learned so much from
the expeditions, that she wanted to share it with the Wilson com-
munity. In fact, Thuebel went on a research expedition to Kenya,
and Professor of Equestrian Studies Ann O’Shallie was awarded to
assist with the same research project.
O’Shallie was the first faculty member to be awarded funding
for an EarthWatch expedition. Although she didn’t think she had
much of a chance, a panel of judges from the College reviewed her
proposal, outlining her interest in traveling to Nairobi, Kenya. “I’m
not an environmentalist or a conservationist—what chance did
I have?” O’Shallie explains that her interest in studying elephants
in Africa is directly related to her interest in horses in the U.S. “I
wanted to explore my interest in the behaviors of two matriarchal
societies – wild horses and elephants – both of which are having
their normal grazing lands and patterns disturbed due to the
encroachment of humans.”
Both O’Shallie and Thuebel, on separate trips, worked with
the Kenya Wildlife Service to record wildlife, specifically elephants,
on the historic grazing corridor in Tsavo National Park. There has
“…the elephant leaves a very slight footprint – we need to learn to do the same,” said O’Shallie.

Breathe in; breathe out. Breathe in; breathe out.The sound of his struggle for air will forever be engrained in my soul.
His spirit was fighting strong but his body was clearly failing. It had been
fifty-two hours since life support was removed and we had spent the
past two days by our three-year-old son’s bedside crying out for God to
do a miracle. Our miracle never came. At least not in the way we so
desperately wanted. On November 8th, 2009 at 10:43 pm our sweet boy
took his final breath and found perfect and total peace.
This month, we are focusing on overcoming
challenges in our lives. I couldn’t think of a better
family to tell their story than the Owens’ family.
Karen Owens is a member of our staff at Glad
Tidings and she was willing to share her amazing
story of how God brought hope and restoration to
an unthinkable challenge in her family’s life.

Many would assume the story was over. Our story, however, was only just beginning.
When Adam and I walked out of those hospital doors on that still November night we had every right to say no. The memories of the past three years—the suffering, the chaos and ultimately his death—were all screaming at our souls to simply say no… no to God and no to the idea that we could ever be whole again.
I’m not sure how—but we chose to say yes.
We chose to see the challenges and heartache as something more — some-thing greater than ourselves and bigger than the pit our broken hearts were pulling us into.
What we didn’t see at the time was that God was working in big ways, bigger than we ever could have conceived. As time passed we began to gain clarity and our vision for what God was doing through the life and death of our son Gavin became very clear.
Adam and I decided that we needed our family to grow. But not in the way most would choose. We wanted to love children who no one else was willing to claim as their own. We wanted to take children who would otherwise live a life lost in a broken system and never experience a true family.
In December of 2010 we brought our then two-year-old daughter Angela home to join Adam, our older daughter Madison and myself—we became a family. Because of the skills we gained in caring for our son Gavin, we were prepared to take on her severe medical and developmental needs. God had officially broken our hearts for what was breaking His, and we knew shortly after bringing Angela home that our family was not yet complete.
In February of 2012 we welcomed home our son Jayden, who had lived his two years of life in a medical facility, after his severe, non-accidental brain trauma. His homecoming confirmed in our minds what we knew in our hearts, that he was meant to be ours. Our youngest children set into motion this perfect display of how God can change lives and bring healing
and hope to situations otherwise deemed hopeless. Adam and I have watched first hand the healing of our two youngest children. We are watching as God is pulling out their full potential and erasing the wounds of their pasts.
When facing a challenge, we are put in a place where a decision must be made. We can choose to allow the challenge to become like quicksand, taking us over and eventually engulfing our very soul, or we can use our challenges as a launching pad for something greater.
Our story has been one written in tears and deep heartache. But it also has been filled with hope, restoration and overwhelming joy. We have sat back and watched how God, in His omniscient ways, articulated every detail of our story to ultimately give us and the world around us a beautiful glimpse of who He is and what He is all about.
I’m so glad we said yes.

By teaching your children healthy eating habits, you can keep them at a healthy weight. Also, the eating habits your children pick up when they are young will help them maintain a healthy lifestyle when they are adults.
One of the most important approaches to eating is cutting down on fat intake. Simple ways to accomplish this include eating low-fat or nonfat dairy products, poultry without skin, lean meats, and low-fat or fat-free breads and cereals.
It is important that you do not place your overweight child(ren) on a restrictive diet. Children should never be placed on a restrictive diet to lose weight unless a doctor supervises one for medical reasons.
Other approaches parents can take to develop healthy eating habits in their children include:
Guide your family’s choices rather than dictate foods. Make a wide variety of
healthful foods available in the house. This practice will help your children learn how to make healthy food choices.
Encourage your children to eat slowly. A child can detect hunger and fullness better when eating slowly.
Eat meals together as a family as often as possible. Try to make mealtimes pleasant with conversation and sharing, not a time for scolding or arguing. If mealtimes are unpleasant, children may try to eat faster to leave the table as soon as possible. They then may learn to associate eating with stress.
Involve your children in food shopping and preparing meals. These activities will give you hints about your children’s food preferences, an opportunity to teach your children about nutrition, and provide your kids with a feeling of accomplishment. In addition, children may be more willing to eat or try foods that they help prepare.
Plan for snacks. Continuous snacking may lead to overeating, but snacks that are planned at specific times during the day can be part of a nutritious diet, without spoiling a child’s appetite at meal times. You should make snacks as nutritious as possible, without depriving your children of occasional chips or cookies, especially at parties or other social events.
Discourage eating meals or snacks while watching TV. Try to eat only in designated areas of your home, such as the dining room or kitchen. Eating in front of the TV may make it difficult to pay attention to feelings of fullness, and may lead to overeating.
Encourage your children to choose water as their beverage. Over consumption of sweet-ened drinks and sodas has been linked to increased rates of obesity in children.
Try not to use food to punish or reward your children. Withholding food as a punishment may lead children to worry that they will not get enough food. For example, sending children to bed without any dinner may cause them to worry that they will go hungry. As a result, children may try to eat whenever they get a chance. Similarly, when foods, such as sweets, are used as a reward, children may assume that these foods are better or more valuable than other foods. For example, telling children that they will get dessert if they eat all of their vegetables sends the wrong message about vegetables.
Make sure your children’s meals outside the home are balanced. Find out more about their school lunch program, or pack their lunch to include a variety of foods. Also, select healthier items when dining at restaurants.

ComedyItalIan Stylethe Golden age of Italian Film Comedies
“This comedy Italian Style was able to reveal on the big screen the common denominator among Italians: their gift for improvisation, a gift to look at reality with a knowing smile, even as a comedic satire. Lanzoni’s Comedy Italian Style offers a faithful and interesting portrait of a unique period in Italian cinema.”
— dino Risi, director of the monsters, Scent of a Woman, and A Difficult Life
“The subject of this book is one of the most important in Italian film history. Commedia all’italiana was a series of comedy films based on farce that dealt with current events, not evasive, but with their bold humor very pointed about societal difficulties.”
— mario monicelli, director of the Great War and Big deal on madonna Street
Comedy Italian Style, also known as “commedia all’italiana,” a national cinematographic patrimony for some and a satirical outlook on the economic boom for others, has served for many years as the principal economic strength of Italian cinema. Internationally known from the work of filmmakers such as Dino Risi, Mario Monicelli, and Pietro Germi, the genre revealed many acting talents during two prolific decades (1960s and 1970s) and confirmed the future legacy of picturesque icons such as Alberto Sordi, Nino Manfredi, Vittorio Gassman, and Ugo Tognazzi, all of whom depicted the Italian resilience in the most idiosyncratic manner. In addition, this thoroughly researched book covers directors such as Ettore Scola, Luigi Comencini, Lina Wertmüller, Luigi Zampa, Alberto Lattuada, Elio Petri, Francesco Rosi, Marco Ferreri, and Federico Fellini among many others.
RémI FouRnIeR lanzonI, author of French Cinema: From Its Beginnings to the Present (2002), teaches Italian at Wake Forest University in North Carolina. He holds PhDs in French and Italian from Florida State University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, respectively.

A Pathway to Healing
Breathe. See. Nourish. Energize.
Drawing on scripture as well as holistic health practices, this practical guide blends the growing interest in spirituality and health with the examples set by Jesus, who encouraged his followers to embrace a life marked by physical healing, emotional wholeness, and spiritual abundance.
“This is an excellent example of the holism that we now know is the nature of holiness. Frances Murchison is practical, inspiring, informed, and still so personal and easy to read.” — Friar Richard Rohr, O.F.M., author of Everything Belongs and Radical Grace.
“In this most excellent book, Murchison guides us softly and effectively into a quieter union of all our parts. It is a gift in every way to those seeking a Godly balance in and for our post-modern lives.” —Phyllis Tickle, author of The Great Emergence
“I yearn to choose the focus of breathing, seeing, nourishing, and energizing so that I may be my own best friend and use time more wisely—I pray for the wisdom to live this book.” — Phoebe Griswold, cofounder of the International Anglican Women’s Network and
former delegate to the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women
“This gentle, vulnerable, and non-judgmental approach to the art of breathing, eating, and the need for community are refreshing.” — Brother Timothy Jolley, O.H.C., prior, Marlya uMama weThemba Monastery,
Grahamstown, South Africa
“A lively, practical guide to wholeness of body, spirit, and mind.” — Rev. Nancy Roth, author, The Breath of Go, Invitation to Christian Yoga, and
Grounded in Love.
“Wise advice for those of us living life in a pressure cooker. . . . Using powerful real examples, she follows the typically overlooked connection between our faith and our physical and mental well-being.” —Judy Woodruff, Senior Correspondent, PBS’s NewsHour with Jim Lehrer “Weaving together her own experience and her professional skill, the author invites us into an intimate conversation about healing.” —Margaret Guenther, author of Just Passing Through
Frances Murchison, HHC, AADP, founder of Mindfullyfed, is a board-certifi ed holistic health counselor who coaches individuals and groups to make grace-fi lled changes toward healthful eating, loving relationships, passionate work, and joy-fi lled spiritual lives.

Ihr liewe Leit:
’S iss Friehling 1709, un ee Marrige sehne die Leit wu in der Neeh vun der Schwatz Heid wuhne —graad siddlich vun London, England—en Schaar Leit uff der Heid, villeicht en paar hunnert.
Net lang dennoh sin’s schunn en paar dausent, un bis der Summer 1709 iwwer iss, sin’s (so saage uns die LWAW1) viele dausende, villeicht sogaar dreizeh dausent allminanner. Nau lewe sie net yuscht uff der Heid awwer aa in viele annere Bletz in London un um London herum.
Die englisch Keenichin Anna (1665-1714, hot 1702 bis ihre Dot regiert) sehnt zu ass die neie Aakemmlinge mit Zelde bsarrigt sin, un ass sie ebbes zu esse un sogaar en bissel Geld hen. Un die Englenner selwer bschenke die “Aasiedler” mit allerhand Almose, bsunners Gleeder.
Awwer die Neikemmlinge sin yo neddemol englisch! Nee, gaar net! Sie sin die “aarme Pelser” wie die Englenner
sie gheese hen, un sin, wie der Naame uns saagt, aus der Pals (un deitsche Gegende um der Pals herum).
Nau, saag, wie kennt so ebbes yemols bassiere? Die LWAW sin net all eenich dattdriwwer; manniche devun glaawe ass die Keenichin Anna warricklich die Pelser bseenlich eigelaade hot, un annere denke des kennt yo gaar net sei.
’S kennt awwer sei ass es net viel ausmacht, ausser fer die wu dief in die Gschicht eigraawe welle. Die Haabtsach iss ass dausende vun Pelser beinaah uffemol die Pals verlosse hen, sin der Rhei nunner nooch Holland un dann niwwer zu England (vergesst net ass uff re Landkaart vun Deitschland der Rhei nuffzus fliesst, in re naddliche Richding).
Wie gsaat, villeicht hot die Keenichin Anna selwer ebbes domit zu duh ghatt. Awwer warum deet en englischi Keenichin aarme Pelser helfe wolle?
Aerschdens hot Anna deitschi Freindschaft ghatt “in hoche Bletz.” (Zu daere Zeit waare englische un deitsche Haerscher oft Gschwischderkinner. Der Georg I, wu nooch der Anna ihrer Dot Keenich vun England warre iss, waar en Gschwischderkind vun der Anna un waar der Kurfaerscht vun Hannover—des hot gemeent er hot mithelfe kenne der deitsch Keenich erweehle. Es watt gsaat ass er fascht kee Watt Englisch schwetze hot kenne, un ass er viel liewer in Deitschland gelebt hot als wie in England.)
Vun 1618 bis 1648 hen die Pelser der Dreissichyeehriche Grieg darrichmache misse. Ihre Heemede waare vun de Fransose vernicht, ihre Felder versaut, un ihr Vieh dotgemacht.
Awwer die Fransose waare noch net faddich mit denne Deitsche, bsunners de Pelser. Neegscht Woch lese mer weider vun der Vernichting vun der Pals.
Macht’s gut, Der Alt Professer
Dear People:
It is spring 1709, and one morning the people who live in the vicinity of Blackheath—just south of London, England—see a crowd of people on the heath, perhaps a few hundred.
Not long thereafter there are a few thousand already, and till the summer of 1709 is over, there are (so tell us the PWKE1) many thousands, perhaps even thirteen thousand all together. Now they are living not only on the heath but also in many other places in London and round about London.
The English Queen Anne (1665-1714, reigned 1702 till her death) sees to it that the new arrivals are provided tents and that they have something to eat and even a little bit of money. The English people themselves give the “settlers” all kinds of alms, especially clothing.
But the newcomers are not even English! No, not at all! They are the “poor Palatines,” as the English
called them, and are, as the name tells us, from the Palatinate (and German areas around the Palatinate).
Now, say, how could something like that ever happen? The PWKE are not all in agreement on that; some of them believe that Queen Anne actually invited the Palatines personally, and others think that that couldn’t be at all.
But it could be that it doesn’t matter much except for those who want to dig deeply into history. The main thing is that thousands of Palatines almost all at once fled the Palatinate, went down the Rhine to Holland, and then over to England (don’t forget that on a map of Germany the Rhine flows upwards, in a northerly direction).
As we were saying, perhaps Queen Anne herself had something to do with that, but why would an English queen want to help poor Palatines?
First of all, Anne had German relatives “in high places.” (At that time English and German rulers were often cousins. George I, who after Anne’s death became king of England, was a cousin of Anne and was the elector of Hannover—that meant that he could help elect the king of Germany. It is said that he knew hardly a word of English and that he would much rather live in Germany than in England.)
From 1618 till 1648 the Palatines had to endure the Thirty Years’ War. Their homes were destroyed by the French, their fields ruined, and their cattle killed.
But the French were not yet finished with those Germans, particularly the Palatines. Next week we’ll continue to read about the destruction of the Palatinate.
Take care, The Old Professor

Die Pennsylvaanisch Deitsche
Earl C. HaagDer Alt Professer@
The dialect, culture, and ethical values of the Pennsylvania Germans have made a distinctive and enduring contribution to American society. This classic, Die Pennsylvaanisch Deitsche / The Pennsylvania Germans, features representative selections of picturesque prose and poetry from the finest authors in the Pennsylvania German dialect. Delightful and entertaining, it illustrates the history, folklore, and customs of people who originally emigrated primarily from the Palatinate and Germanic Switzerland and thus became the forebears of today’s Pennsylvania Germans, commonly known as the Pennsylvania Dutch.
In part one, “En glee Gschicht, en groos Gschicht” (A Little History, a Great Story), Earl C. Haag, the leading authority on the dialect and literature of the Pennsylvania Germans, has gathered ninety-six of his “Es Neinuhr Schtick” (The Nine O’clock Field Snack) columns, first published in the Schuylkill Haven (Pa.) Call and the Tremont (Pa.) Press and Herald during the past twenty-six years.
Accompanied by English translations, these instructive columns enlighten the reader, whether proficient in the dialect or not, of these immigrants’ homelands, their methods of clearing the forests, building their homes, and working the soil—all far different from the homelands, houses, and farming methods of the “English” (anyone not Pennsylvania German), who had already occupied much of eastern Pennsylvania.
In part two, “Feierdaage, Feschtdaage, un Abbaddiche Daage” (Holidays, Festive Days, and Special Days), 216 more columns deal with the distinctive traditions, customs, and lore associated with the seasons, weather, and holidays celebrated by Pennsylvania Germans, even into the present. Again, the historical information in these columns is beautifully illustrated by the glorious bounty of dialect prose and poetry. Possibly no other ethnic group in America has so thoroughly documented and immortalized in its literature the lives and times of its people.
Because Pennsylvania German authors have used various spelling systems, Haag has edited most columns to conform to the so-called Buffington-Barba system of spelling, the official orthography of the Pennsylvania German Society since 1938. Students of Pennsylvania history, dialect speakers and instructors, and especially students of the dialect will find this volume absolutely essential to their work.

Earl C. Haag graduated from the University of
Connecticut in 1952 and attended the University
of Heidelberg, Germany, in 1952 and 1953. He
earned a master’s degree in German philology from
Pennsylvania State University in 1956. From 1958 to
1999 he taught German, Pennsylvania German, and
German and English composition at Pennsylvania
State University, Schuylkill Campus.
He authored A Pennsylvania German Reader and
Grammar (1982), edited A Pennsylvania German
Anthology (1988) and En Pennsylvaanisch Deitsch
Yaahr / A Pennsylvania Dutch Year (1990), and
compiled One Hundred Years: An Index of Publications
of the Pennsylvania German Society (1998). For the past
twenty-six years his Pennsylvania German column,
“Es Neinuhr Schtick,” has appeared weekly in
Schuylkill County’s premier community newspapers,
the Schuylkill Haven (Pa.) Call, Tremont (Pa.) Press
and Herald, and the West Schuylkill Herald.
This volume of “Es Neinuhr Schtick” (The Nine O’clock Snack) pieces contains 312
columns featuring the history and culture of the Pennsylvania Germans. Through the
use of many of his columns in the Call newspapers—published in Schuylkill Haven, Pine
Grove, and Tower City, Pennsylvania—Haag enables a much broader range of readers to
become familiar with a large portion of the literature of the Pennsylvania Germans.
His magnificent panorama of the Pennsylvania Germans begins with “Die aarme
Pelser” (the poor Palatines) and includes “Der Schpeicher” (the attic/garret), “Der
Butzemann” (the scarecrow), “Fense (fences), “Schule” (schools), “Schlachde” (butchering),
and “Bauereigebeier” (farm buildings). The orthography has been normalized to conform
more closely to poet John Birmelin’s (1873-1950) ideas for spelling in the dialect.
This superb volume, with short dialect texts and complete English translation, makes
it ideal for use as a textbook in Pennsylvania German classes. The translation appears on
the same page with the Pennsylvania German original, thus eliminating the need for a
dictionary. With the brevity of the texts and the side-by-side translations, this volume will
serve beautifully as a reader in Pennsylvania German classes—either as a beginning reader
or as a more advanced text. Teachers of especially mature students will find this volume
useful as a beginning text in oral classes with plenty of advanced pieces available. This is
a subsequent volume to Haag’s earlier En Pennsylvaanisch DeitschYaahr/A Pennsylvania
German Year.

Die Pennsylvaanisch Deitsche
Earl C. HaagDer Alt Professer@
The dialect, culture, and ethical values of the Pennsylvania Germans have made a distinctive and enduring contribution to American society. This classic, Die Pennsylvaanisch Deitsche / The Pennsylvania Germans, features representative selections of picturesque prose and poetry from the finest authors in the Pennsylvania German dialect. Delightful and entertaining, it illustrates the history, folklore, and customs of people who originally emigrated primarily from the Palatinate and Germanic Switzerland and thus became the forebears of today’s Pennsylvania Germans, commonly known as the Pennsylvania Dutch.
In part one, “En glee Gschicht, en groos Gschicht” (A Little History, a Great Story), Earl C. Haag, the leading authority on the dialect and literature of the Pennsylvania Germans, has gathered ninety-six of his “Es Neinuhr Schtick” (The Nine O’clock Field Snack) columns, first published in the Schuylkill Haven (Pa.) Call and the Tremont (Pa.) Press and Herald during the past twenty-six years.
Accompanied by English translations, these instructive columns enlighten the reader, whether proficient in the dialect or not, of these immigrants’ homelands, their methods of clearing the forests, building their homes, and working the soil—all far different from the homelands, houses, and farming methods of the “English” (anyone not Pennsylvania German), who had already occupied much of eastern Pennsylvania.
In part two, “Feierdaage, Feschtdaage, un Abbaddiche Daage” (Holidays, Festive Days, and Special Days), 216 more columns deal with the distinctive traditions, customs, and lore associated with the seasons, weather, and holidays celebrated by Pennsylvania Germans, even into the present. Again, the historical information in these columns is beautifully illustrated by the glorious bounty of dialect prose and poetry. Possibly no other ethnic group in America has so thoroughly documented and immortalized in its literature the lives and times of its people.
Because Pennsylvania German authors have used various spelling systems, Haag has edited most columns to conform to the so-called Buffington-Barba system of spelling, the official orthography of the Pennsylvania German Society since 1938. Students of Pennsylvania history, dialect speakers and instructors, and especially students of the dialect will find this volume absolutely essential to their work.

Earl C. Haag graduated from the University of
Connecticut in 1952 and attended the University
of Heidelberg, Germany, in 1952 and 1953. He
earned a master’s degree in German philology from
Pennsylvania State University in 1956. From 1958 to
1999 he taught German, Pennsylvania German, and
German and English composition at Pennsylvania
State University, Schuylkill Campus.
He authored A Pennsylvania German Reader and
Grammar (1982), edited A Pennsylvania German
Anthology (1988) and En Pennsylvaanisch Deitsch
Yaahr / A Pennsylvania Dutch Year (1990), and
compiled One Hundred Years: An Index of Publications
of the Pennsylvania German Society (1998). For the past
twenty-six years his Pennsylvania German column,
“Es Neinuhr Schtick,” has appeared weekly in
Schuylkill County’s premier community newspapers,
the Schuylkill Haven (Pa.) Call, Tremont (Pa.) Press
and Herald, and the West Schuylkill Herald.
This volume of “Es Neinuhr Schtick” (The Nine O’clock Snack) pieces contains 312
columns featuring the history and culture of the Pennsylvania Germans. Through the
use of many of his columns in the Call newspapers—published in Schuylkill Haven, Pine
Grove, and Tower City, Pennsylvania—Haag enables a much broader range of readers to
become familiar with a large portion of the literature of the Pennsylvania Germans.
His magnificent panorama of the Pennsylvania Germans begins with “Die aarme
Pelser” (the poor Palatines) and includes “Der Schpeicher” (the attic/garret), “Der
Butzemann” (the scarecrow), “Fense (fences), “Schule” (schools), “Schlachde” (butchering),
and “Bauereigebeier” (farm buildings). The orthography has been normalized to conform
more closely to poet John Birmelin’s (1873-1950) ideas for spelling in the dialect.

� e Heart of the Taufschein off ers the fi rst in-depth interpretive history of the Taufschein (birth and baptism certifi cate), the most numerous and, to many because of its genealogical value, the most important type of fraktur. Berks County arguably became the center of Taufschein production in North America.
� anks to an understudied Lutheran minister named Daniel Schumacher, Berks County families were among the fi rst to have these certifi cates made for their children. � is volume underscores Berks County’s unique role in the development, distribution, and popularity of these stunningly decorated certifi cates. By the last decades of the eighteenth and through the nineteenth centuries, Berks County hosted a unique blend of fraktur artists, scriveners, and printers who responded to the cultural appetite of the local Pennsylvania German community, comprised primarily of “church people.”
In this volume the Earnests, the leading authorities on fraktur, trace the development of the Taufschein beyond Berks County into southeastern Pennsylvania and colonial America as the surge in demand for these works of art on paper followed the successful outcome of the American Revolution. � e authors follow the history and expansion of the market from the eighteenth to the twentieth century.
Two hundred magnifi cent, full-color illustrations demonstrate how major fraktur artists and scriveners, some previously unknown, worked and distributed the Taufschein within and beyond Berks County, Pennsylvania. Maps, notes, selected references, and indexes enhance the volume’s usefulness. Appendixes feature fraktur artists, scriveners, and printers who routinely helped to produce Taufscheine for Berks County families; and English translations appear for all German documents.
CORINNE EARNEST, a native of Amarillo, Texas, received her undergraduate degree from Oregon College of Education with a major in secondary education and a minor in modern languages, and a graduate degree in American literature from the University of California. In 1982 she began freelance writing and established a publishing business called Russell D. Earnest Associates. She has lectured at numerous national, state, and local genealogical and historical society conferences, including the National Genealogical Society, Palatines to America, Mid-Atlantic Germanic Society, and Daughter of the American Revolution, among many others.
Currently she writes regular columns regarding genealogi-cal data found on fraktur for Der Kurier, the Mid-Atlantic Germanic Society quarterly, and for Penn Pal, newsletter of the Pennsylvania Chapter of Palatines to America. Corinne Earnest was the recipient of the fi rst annual William H. Hiester Manuscript Award (1992) from the Historical Society of Berks County. She served as presi-dent of the Mid-Atlantic Germanic Society (1996-2000) and as second vice president of the Pennsylvania Chapter of Palatines to America.
RUSSELL EARNEST, a native of San Diego, California, entered the U.S. Navy submarine service after high school. Following his military service, he received his undergraduate and graduate degrees from Oregon State University. His professional career was with the U.S. Department of Interior as a research biologist and admin-istrator with specialties in pesticide research and impact analysis of hydro-development on aquatic resources. He authored and coauthored numerous scientifi c and techni-cal papers and reports, presented testimony before Congress, and helped develop environmental policy for both Republican and Democratic administrations. In 1996 he joined Corinne Earnest to write and publish articles and books about fraktur, broadsides, and other Pennsylvania German documents.
THE EARNESTS, in the past several decades, have meticulously recorded more than thirty-fi ve thousand examples of fraktur. � eir extensive records form the core of their Earnest Archives and Library, Clayton, Delaware; and they publish many articles about fraktur on their library Web site. � ey are best known for their two-volume Papers for Birth Dayes: Guide to the Fraktur Artists and Scriveners (2nd ed., 1997), which has long been recognized as an essential tool for fraktur researchers. In 2004 the Pennsylvania German Society published their To the Latest Posterity: Pennsylvania German Family Registers in the Fraktur Tradition, which covers the history of Pennsylvania German decorated family registers.
Previously they served as instructors for a course on the history of fraktur through the Pennsylvania College of Art and Design. In 1997 they became guest curators for a fraktur exhibit at the former Heritage Center of Lancaster County, Lancaster, Pennsylvania. In 1999 the Pennsylvania German Society awarded them a certifi cate of merit for their books and articles on Pennsylvania German fraktur and broadsides.
