Gott, Gud, or God: German and Norwegian Cultural Assimilation in La Crosse Churches Author: Steven Aune Date published: 2018 |
Abstract | Aune examines the use of language in immigrant churches in La Crosse, Wisconsin. Aune argues that cultural assimilation began in earnest when English became the dominant language in use over the native immigrant language. The author looks specifically at the two largest non-English native speaking immigrant groups in La Crosse in the 19th century; namely, the Germans and Norwegians. |
