Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book tells the story of the Danish population of northern Slesvig and their struggle to maintain their language and culture under Prussian rule. The author provides a historical context for the Slesvig-Holstein Question, explaining how this region became a point of contention between Denmark and Prussia in the 19th century. He then describes the various measures taken by the Prussian government to suppress the Danish language and culture in Slesvig, including the Germanization of schools and churches, the expulsion of Danish officials, and the forced sale of Danish-owned land. The author also discusses the resistance of the Danish population to these measures, including the establishment of Danish-language schools, newspapers, and cultural organizations. He argues that the Danish Slesvigers have been able to maintain their identity despite the many challenges they have faced, and that their struggle for self-determination is an important example of the resilience of national identity in the face of adversity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
