Notes
  • Correspondence and manuscripts of Alfred Senn, an internationally renowned scholar whose chief contributions were in the fields of German, Baltic, and Slavic philology and linguistics. Born of Swiss parents and educated in Switzerland, he worked in Lithuania during the 1920s and then settled in the United States where he held academic positions at the University of Wisconsin (1931-1938) and the University of Pennsylvania (1938-1969) and later also played a prominent role in several professional organizations. The collection consists primarily of letters--roughly half of which are in German, Lithuanian, and other non-English languages--from friends and colleagues in both Europe and the United States concerning academic affairs, professional organizations, publishing, study and travel abroad, and personal activities. It also includes items dealing with Swiss-American cultural affairs, the problems of scholars victimized by the Nazi regime, and the situation of friends and displaced persons in post-World War II Germany. Prominent correspondents include Alfons Nehring and Max Niedermann.Collection Location: Wisconsin Historical Society
