Book of My Things Course Countdown: Day 1 – My Dad’s Old Latin-German Stowasser Dictionary
Published: Thu, 01/06/22
Dear Readers,
I'm so excited that my online course Capturing Family History in a Book of My Things begins in ten days that I decided to run a countdown. I'll be sharing some of my stories about family objects, including tidbits of my process putting them
together.
Hopefully that'll give you some ideas and inspire you to come up with some of your own stories. And of course I'd love it if you joined the course! ;-)
As I was cleaning out our bookshelves this summer (We had new ones built in.), I came across my dad's old Stowasser Latin-German dictionary. It had been a long time since I'd held it in my hands. Yet there was a time when I worked with it daily as I was studying for the Latinum in my early twenties.
My dad as “Licht, Schreiber” (Licht, scribe) in the production of Heinrich von Kleist’s play “Der zerbrochene Krug” (The Broken Jug) at his high school, Realgymnasium, in Michelstadt, Germany, probably
1951.
