Abstract

German immigrants to the United States in the late 1840s faced isolation and a cultural vacuum. Pockets of community could be found in the traditional German turnvereins (gymnastic clubs or societies) that offered the new German immigrants a warm but culturally insulated haven. The work of George Brosius, one of the leading gymnastic instructors in the American turner movement and director of the Turner's Normal School in Milwaukee, rarely discussed in previous research, contributed to the elevation of the German American Turner societies from a bastion of German culture to a prominent part of American physical culture. This will be shown through his contribution as a gymnastics instructor and later director of the American Turner Union's Normal School in Milwaukee and his work as a coach. We aim to solidify the American-born George Brosius's place among the pantheon of nineteenth-century figures of physical culture.
介于Pints和性能之间
19世纪40年代末移居美国的德国移民面临着孤立和文化真空。在传统的德国小酒馆(体操俱乐部或社团)中可以找到一些社区,为新的德国移民提供了一个温暖但文化隔绝的天堂。乔治·布鲁修斯是美国特纳运动的主要体操教练之一,也是密尔沃基特纳师范学校的校长,他的工作在以前的研究中很少被讨论,他有助于将德美特纳协会从德国文化的堡垒提升为美国体育文化的重要组成部分。这将通过他作为体操教练的贡献和后来在密尔沃基美国特纳联合师范学校的主任以及他作为教练的工作来体现。我们的目标是巩固出生于美国的乔治·布鲁修斯在19世纪体育文化人物万神殿中的地位。
