Here's a feelgood story about how one Polish farmer made the Prussian police look like idiots. And a recipe for a cake that Poles and Germans agree is delicious: Streuselkuchen.

From Hope to Hardship

<p xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" class="first" dir="auto" id="d3799336e29">From Hope to Hardship begins with the missionary quest of Ralph and Edith Norton, who assisted John Wilbur Chapman around the turn of the twentieth century at the height of his success as a ‘mass-evangelist’ in major US cities and worldwide. The book explores the origins and development of the Nortons’ campaign, and the interactions between a transatlantic faith mission and the broader landscape of Belgian Protestantism. Through a detailed account of the historical context, in a vivid narrative the author examines how the theological framework of first-wave fundamentalism was creatively applied in a transcultural missionary context, introducing the reader to the mission’s evangelistic strategies against the socio-political and religious background of post–World War I Belgium. In this comprehensive monograph, Aaldert Prins offers a well-documented and nuanced understanding of the mission’s successes, struggles, and leadership changes, making this book an essential read for anyone interested in the history of transnational evangelicalism and its missionary endeavors. </p>

Concluding that the “contradictory crosscurrents of Weimar’s
global situatedness sound rather familiar in the context of our own predicament at
the beginning of the twenty-first century.”

In 1891, the second International Folklore Congress was convened in London. The organizers hoped to raise the profile of the new discipline and to underpin the Folklore Society's role as a disciplinary pioneer.

Facets of Transnationalism in the Late Nineteenth Century: New Perspectives on the History of Folklore Studies

‘The many indications that the study and collection of Folk-lore is now engaging the attention of most countries in Europe make it necessary that this Society, being the first to introduce a systematic study of Folk-lore, should as far as possible work in unison and confederation with similar organizations abroad, and should draw within its … Continue reading Facets of Transnationalism in the Late Nineteenth Century: New Perspectives on the History of Folklore Studies
