Der Autor. ; "Noch siebzig Jahre nach der Veröffentlichung des Bestsellers Jürnjakob Swehn - der Amerikafahrer von Johannes Gillhoff war die Frage unbeantwortet, ob das Buch ein Roman oder ein Tatsachenbericht war - und, wenn ein Tatsachenbericht, wer jene Immigrantenbriefe an seinen alten Lehrer in Deutschland geschrieben hatte. In diesem Buch folgen wir der zehnjährigen Suche nach der Identität von Jürnjakob Swehn. Wir erleben, wie die Briefe und Personen sich im ğLand der unbegrenzten MöglichkeitenĞ dokumentieren lassen. Kopien von fünf bisher unveröffentlichten Briefen von der Gillhoff Familie nach Iowa sind eingeschlossen. Für diese Forschungen war Professor Knuth die richtige Person zur richtigen Zeit. Er wurde in Clayton County, Iowa geboren, wo Jürnjakob Swehn 1868 siedelte; hat Wurzeln in Mecklenburg, wo Swehn geboren wurde; hat grosses Interesse an Ahnenforschung; besucht Deutschland häufig und spricht bzw. liest Deutsch. Für seine Forschungen wurde Professor Knuth die Ehrenmitgliedschaft der Johannes-Gillhoff-Gesellschaft, die Ehrenbürgerschaft von Glaisin und die Fritz-Reuter-Medaille zuerkannt." Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 220 8° , Paperback , Sehr gutes Exemplar.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - For seventy years after the publication in Germany in 1917 of Johannes Gillhoff's best seller 'Jürnjakob Swehn -- der Amerikafahrer' (translated recently into English with the title 'Letters of a German American Farmer') the readers of the book debated whether It was fact or fiction - and, if fact, who wrote those immigrant letters from Iowa back to his teacher in Germany. The present book is a factual narrative of the ten-year search which in 1988 revealed the true identity of Jürnjakob Swehn and showed that most of the book is fact. The narrative documents how Swehn's family fared of five previously unpublished letters to Iowa from the Gillhoff family.
