  Germanistics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Germanistics is the field of humanities that researches, documents, and disseminates German language and literature in both its historic and present forms.
Modern Germanistics is usually seen as a combination of two sub-disciplines: German linguistics and German literature studies, the latter comprised of studies of older and newer German literature (Älterer and Neuerer deutscher Literaturwissenschaft).
As an independent university subject, Germanistics was founded at the beginning of the nineteenth century by Georg Friedrich Benecke, the Brothers Grimm, and Karl Lachmann.

 Boll, Heinrich   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
During autumn 1938 I was conscripted into the national labour service, and released in spring 1939 after completing a six-month term of compulsory service.
Because the completion of labour service was a precondition for permission to study at the university, I was able to begin my studies of Germanistics and Classical Philology during the summer term of 1939.
Late in the summer of 1939 I was conscripted into the German Army shortly before the outbreak of the war.

 [No title]
From a religious perspective, however, service for God in the role of a cleric, monk or nun, or even as a beguine was always preferable to any other s tation in life (see 1 Corinthian 7).
Some of these texts are well known among medievalists even outside of Germanistics, but others are of a rather obscure nature and have never received full attention by scholarship.
Whether the new interest is justified because Mueller succeeds through her interpretation to make these texts interesting and meaningful again, is hard to determine.

It is supplemented by detailed summaries of the various chapters in German and is thereby made accessible to the German readers.
Among the authors featured in this volume are renowned scientists, like the German Professor of Germanistics and Chairman of the Raimund-Friedrich-Kaindl Society Kurt Rein, as well as William Keel, Professor of Germanistics at the University of Kansas and the political scientist Otto Hallabrin from the Bukowina Institut in Augsburg.
However, the book would have lost much of its appeal of reflecting experienced history had it not been for the many contributions from immigrant circles, such as Irmgard Hein Ellingson, Paul Massier, Mary Lee Rose, Sophie A. Welisch, Oren M. Windholz and many others.
