The Japanese families here are anxious to be evacuated and resettled together, to that end we have place_ a plea with the W.C.C.A. That means I have no families for you to suggest to mid-west FOR folk. 2. The list will be sent you soon. Miss Round promised me Tuesday night she would get it out to you right away. Some time she is a bit slow doing things. I have written a letter announcing the next meeting for her. 3. The Methodist Aid committee for the Japanese Evacuation which we formed here last week has already done several small things to stone for the sins of our time, with the Japanese people. We have some real heart breaks here. I think I have answered the three requests. Funds seem to be a great difficulty with us. Some send direct to the N.Y. office, etc., others feel that we must do something here for a few needy cases, so we have been unable to send any your way yet. I know when they get your news sheet they will want to help however so getting the list to you right away is important.

Honour and recognition in the German novel of banditry ca 1800
No full textThis article performs a reading informed by Honneth’s theory of recognition of the two best-known German novels of banditry of the 1790s, Johann Heinrich Zschokke’s Abaellino der große Bandit (1794) and Christian August Vulpius’ Rinaldo Rinaldini (1799) in an effort to understand how popular literature participates in and reflects upon the discourse on honour and recognition around 1800. Its status as popular genre makes the novel of banditry (Räuberroman) a potentially interesting source on shifts in the theory and practice of honour as experienced by ordinary Europeans at the turn of the 19th century. The genre was found to relate to the honour discourse not directly, but in the manner of a heterotopia, simultaneously located outside that discourse and referentially connected to it. Taken in isolation, the novel of banditry is not an informative source on the changing role of honour and new patterns of intersubjective recognition in late 18th century Europe. Seen as part of a particular constellation of textual production and reception, however, the genre sheds light on the aporias of honour experienced by those socially marginal ‘new readers’ intent on exploiting literature in the struggle for enhanced social recognition.Peer reviewe
