	Mountain Meadows Massacre Part 3 of 5
		In the days of those long and strenuous journeys across the western portion of the continent the emigrants were wont to drive their wagons into a circle with the tongues on the inside for convenience in getting into and out of the wagons.
		That the emigrants had no suspicion of danger is proved by the haphazard position of their wagons when the first attack was made, and by the other fact that no guards were with their animals.
		Why the emigrants did not inclose the spring at the time of forming their corral is inexplicable except on the theory of the excitement that accompanied the attack.

		Sometimes this could be done when the emigrants were in camp for the night or had stopped to camp early or departed later in the morning.
		Whether or not the emigrants were told beforehand that they would be required to help build the road is likewise a cloudy issue.
		It seems unlikely that the emigrants would have chosen the Southern Route had they known in advance that a passable road had yet to be built and that there were not enough road workers to build it.

		W.G. Sebald was born in Germany, studied literature there as well as in Switzerland and in Manchester, England, and since 1970 has been teaching at the University of East Anglia, where he is now a professor of European literature.
		...Everything in The Emigrants is rendered through a prism of dispassionate observation, spiritual fatigue, and sudden revelation-an elusive blend of eloquence and silence, riddle and revelation...
		...The Emigrants is about people who are not just ultimately homeless but whose lives have strayed, who missed the boat that never sailed, or who took the boat that sailed elsewhere...

		Their excuse is that once the emigrant is back in the motherland, he/she is part of the community, and doesn't need to have an independent association.
		This happens, in spite of the fact that many of the emigrants and their children did sacrifice for the revolution and the country.
		The emigrants and their children represent a high percentage of the educated people, and can hold responsible posts.

		In the afternoon the journey was continued by train to Altona, whence the emigrants went up the Elbe on a small steamboat to a place off Hamburg, where the company was at once placed on board the double-decked ship B. Kimball, an American vessel (Capt. Dearborn).
		Among the emigrants were the following elders who had acted as presidents of conferences in Scandinavia: Hans C. Hogsted from the Copenhagen, Soren Jensen from the Aalborg, Gustaf Pegau from the Fredericia, P.O. Holmgren from the Stockholm, John C. Sandberg from the Goteborg, and Swen Nilsson from the Skane conferences.
		Several of the emigrants had only paid their fare to New York and therefore had to remain in that city for the time being.

	About the Arts - Public Art - "The Emigrants" by Eamonn O'Doherty
		Background: The work, which is intentionally sentimental, consists of seven figures; the main family group, an old couple and a young girl playing at the fountain (the fountain was not designed by the artist).
		In the family group, the girl carries books and the boy a fiddle, "indicating some of the cultural baggage that the emigrants brought to the New World." The work is quite literal, figurative, and the figures wear contemporary dress.
		The sculptor explains that; "Derry was the largest port of emigration in the Northwest during the two great periods of exodus, the first in the eighteenth century and the second in the latter half of the nineteenth century after the great famine."

		Following his death in a car crash last year, sweeping critical acclaim for his final novel (Austerlitz) and now the release of his last work, a 128 page poem (After Nature), mean that WG Sebald joins the ranks of countless other writers by achieving fame posthumously.
		The Emigrants was written in German (Die Ausgerwanderten) and first published in Germany (1993), although Sebald had lived in England for a long time (he taught at the UEA in Norwich right up until his demise).
		Profoundly moving and emotionally resonant, The Emigrants is an absorbing work that dares its reader to experience a unique blend of feelings that is revelatory if not wholly comfortable.

	Literary Review: The book of memory: W.G. Sebald's The Emigrants and Austerlitz (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The significant issue for Sebald is not memory in an overall generic sense, however, but the point at which the cost of not remembering supersedes protective strategies for survival, the moment later in life when early, often horrific repressed knowledge or experience move center stage in a person's life.
		The early memories of the displaced European Jews of The Emigrants are intensified, overpowering, as they reconstruct their pasts, recognize the "tightening ties to those who had gone before," and know that they will always be alienated.
		While never explicit, it is clear that Sebald's more encompassing theme, particularly in The Emigrants and Austerlitz is the Holocaust, and the disappearance or exile of European Jews.

	The Emigrants by Winfried Georg Sebald, ISBN 0811213382 And Strawberry Shortcake Berry Happy Scented Home
		The four long narratives in W.G. Sebald's The Emigrants at first appear to be the straightforward biographies of four people in exile: a painter, an elderly Russian, the author's schoolteacher as well as his eccentric great-uncle Ambrose.
		Following (literally) in their footsteps, the narrator retraces routes which lead from Lithuania to London, from Munich to Manchester, from the South German provinces to Switzerland, France, New York, Constantinople, and Jerusalem.
		Each story is illustrated with enigmatic photographs, making The Emigrants seem at times almost like a family album - but of families destroyed.

		The Emigrants is a meditation on memory and loss.
		"The Emigrants" presents itself as an anthology of four biographies, of a doctor, a teacher, a valet and a painter.
		But it is in fact a single narrative because all four emigrants have undergone the same story and because each successive biography takes the tale a little further back towards the subject's childhood.

		Countess Sophia von Schaumburg-Lippe, Lady-in-Waiting at the English Court, used her influence in their behalf, but was unable to counteract the opposition of the Lutheran court-chaplain Ziegenhagen.

		Despite the fact that many emigrants left the United States in the 1840s and '50s because of steadily increasing political and social tensions arising from the spread of slavery, they could not escape these problems.
		The "exclusion laws" were passed to keep slaves and the free descendants of slaves from settling in the Oregon Country in the hope of avoiding the troubles of the East.
		Just the same, a trickle of fl emigrants ended up settling here, and though their stories are rarely told, their presence helped shape the region as we know it today.

		The family, as emigrants, being objects of some interest in and about Hungerford, attracted so many beholders, that we were glad to take refuge in their room.

		I see the telegraph wires rising and falling past the train window, the facades of the Riga houses, the ship in the docks and the dark corner on deck where we did our best to make ourselves at home in such confined circumstances.
		All the emigrants had gathered on deck and were waiting for the Statue of Liberty to appear out of the drifting mist, since every one of them had booked a passage to Americum, as we called it.
		Most of the emigrants, of necessity, adjusted to the situation, but some, in the teeth of all the evidence to the contrary, persisted for a long time in the belief that they were in America.

		One of the greatest coming-to-America films ever, THE EMIGRANTS tells the story Karl-Oskar Nillson (Max Von Sydow) and his family's journey from Sweden to America.
		The film is harrowing and at times quite moving as we experience the plight of the tenant farmer in 18th century Sweden.
		A sparing use of music is also a plus as so many films seem to use music as a crutch, telling the audience what they are supposed to be feeling at every moment.

		A disappointment: I ordered the Emigrants (and The Land) after seeing The Ox (which is excellent).
		A Criminal Mishandling: Jan Troell's The Emigrants was released in the U.S. with 40 minutes cut out of it, so it has never really been seen in the States, thanks to Warner Brothers, who were too stupid to grasp the film's significance or, indeed, audiences' abilities to enjoy this 3-hour+ masterpiece.
		Even if Von Sydow and Ullmann were there to post-dub their own voices, it is an affront to this magnificent film, and to anyone with brains and taste enough to enjoy it unaldulterated by studio sabotage.

		it is. The Emigrants weaves the lives of four people who wander the terrain of postwar world in search of discovering their true past in that nightmare of history they have survived.
		Sebald is eloquent in his use of language, spare in his style of writing, and wholly individual in his method of presenting not ony the word but related photographs to mimic the melange of fragments that piece together to form our histories.
