paperback. Zustand: Very Good in Wrappers. No Jacket. First Edition. University Park. 2016. May 2016. Pennsylvania State University Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 9780271071183. A Keystone Book. 42 illustrations. 6 × 8. 176 pages. paperback. keywords: History America Pennsylvania German. DESCRIPTION - 'Penns…ylvania German versammlinge, in particular the groundhog lodges, are the most important public expression of Pennsylvania German heritage today. Combining solid research with extensive fieldwork, William Donner has produced an impressive study of this fascinating movement that deepens our understanding not only of the Pennsylvania Germans, but of American folklife and vernacular culture more generally.' - Mark Louden, University of WisconsinMadison. Versammlinge - community events filled with songs, performances, speeches, and skits that celebrate Pennsylvania German heritage and culture - are held entirely in the Pennsylvania German Deitsch language. Some, the 'groundhog lodges,' feature a ceremony honoring the groundhog, while others do not. These unique meetings, expressions of a distinctive ethnic identity in the context of a rapidly changing society, have become a traditional mainstay among Pennsylvania Germans who have worked to preserve their language and culture into the twenty-first century. In Serious Nonsense, William Donner introduces readers to Pennsylvania German cultural practices that tourists rarely see and that outsiders, including most scholars, rarely learn about. Donner not only explores the origins of the versammlinge but also illustrates how their significance has developed since the 1930s, when the first meetings of the Pennsylvania German groundhog lodges were held. Much as they did then, versammlinge today follow a pattern of prayers, patriotism, and speeches extolling values associated with Pennsylvania German identity, as well as theatrical and oral events that humorously contrast a simpler past with a more complex and confusing present. And the groundhog lodges feature one Pennsylvania German tradition that has become familiar in popular culture: groundhog weather prognostication. Serious Nonsense offers readers a glimpse into a little-known performative expression of a cultural identity that is at once an echo of European roots and also uniquely American. 'Donner opens the doors of the groundhog lodges and shows us the captivating look, feel, and sound of the lodges' sometimes serious, sometimes jolly, always meaningful festivities. His riveting narrative and eye-opening photographs reveal, as no one to date has done before, the cultural dynamics of Pennsylvania German language, tradition, and identity within a changing world. This is a marvelous book, not just about a fascinating Pennsylvania German institution and its activities, but ultimately about organizing heritage in and out of the public eye.' - Simon J. Bronner, Pennsylvania State University. inventory #42727.
