Bibliography
LIED DER DEUTSCHBRASILIANER.
Rein wie hoch am Himmelsbogen
Unsrer Heimat Sterne stehn.
Mächtig, wie die Meereswogen
Gegen unsre Küste gehn,
Soll der Heimat Sang uns dringen
Aus der treuen Brust hervor,
Soll Brasiliens Preis erklingen
Aus dem deutschen Männerchor.
Fülle liegt auf deinen Fluren,
Gottgesegnet Vaterland;
Leuchtend zeigst du noch die Spuren
Von des Schöpfers Meisterhand:
In des Mittags blauen Fernen
Wo die goldne Sonnenpracht,
Mit des Himmels schönsten Sternen
Schmükt sie funkelnd deine Nacht.
Deine fruchtgetränkte Erde
Gibt uns Mut zu frischem Tun,
Gibt uns Müsse, um am Herde
Sonder Sorge auszuruhn.
Aus des Bodens Scholle ziehen
Wir des Lebens bestes Mark,
Aus des Bodens Kraft erblühen
Die Geschlechter frei und stark.
Lasst uns schaffen mit der Stärke
Dessen, der die Heimat liebt,
Lasst uns beten, dass zum Werke
Gott uns das Gedeihen gibt!
Ewig heilig, ewig teuer
Bleibest du dem deutschen Lied,
Heimatland, in dem das Feuer
Unsres Herdes gastlich glüht.
O. Meyer in Uhle's Kalender for 1916.
PREFACE.
The primary purpose of this work is to give an idea of the dialect which has been developed by the German-speaking element in Brazil.
As comparatively little is known by the English-speaking public concerning the history, location and relative importance of the German element in Brazil (judging from extant English publications referring to the subject), the main part of the work has been preceded by a chapter dealing with these particular phases. This first chapter is also intended to prepare the reader to form a reasonable estimate of the comparative importance and extent of the dialect under discussion in the main part of the work.
In connection with this study the author is particularly indebted to the well-known authority on German American cultural relations and conditions, Professor Marion Dexter Learned, of the University of Pennsylvania. It was at his suggestion and under his constant help and advice that the plan was carried out.
While on a trip of investigation in Brazil the writer was furnished important information and material by Friedrich Sommer, Direktor of the Banco Allemão Transatlantico
of São Paulo; Henrique Bamberg of São Paulo; Otto Specht, Chefe da Secção de Publicidade e Bibliotheca of the Secretaria da Agricultura
of São Paulo; Johann Potuček, Austro-Hungarian Consul in Curityba; J.B. Hafkemeyer, S.J., of the Collegio Anchieta,
Porto Alegre; G.A. Büchler of the Neue Schule,
Blumenau; Cleto Espey, O.F.M., of the Collegio St. Antonio,
Blumenau; E. Bloch, Engenheiro Chefe da Estrada de Ferro Santa Catharina, Itajahy; Nikolaus Dechent, Direktor of the Deutsche Schule,
Joinville; Petrus Sinzig, O.F.M., of the Convento dos Franciscanos,
Petropolis; Edmondo Hees, Editor of the Nachrichten,
Petropolis; Pastor Fr. L. Hoepffner of the Deutsch-Evangelische Gemeinde,
Rio de Janeiro; W. Münzenthaler, Kaiserlicher General-Konsul, Rio de Janeiro; and Heinrich Lotz, Kgl. Bezirksgeologe a.D., Berlin.
Special thanks are also due to Professor D.B. Shumway, of the University of Pennsylvania, for valuable suggestions and assistance in the final arrangement of the manuscript.
The above-mentioned persons are in no wise responsible for any errors which may appear in the text.
