    Extractions: tradition of Marian worship Deutsch Imprint Einsiedeln is situated in the hart of Switzerland approximately 40 km from Zurich. The famous library of the abbey and the grandiose baroque church are considered to be one of the major cultural monuments of Switzerland. The oldest swiss place of pilgrimage is still today the spiritual center of Switzerland. The black Madonna, also called Our Lady of the Hermits, and the Lady chapel make Einsiedeln the most important site of pilgrimage in Switzerland and one of the major Marian shrines for pilgrims in Europe. Religious services, masses, and the way of the cross are the main religious offers of pilgrimage. Daily highlight is the salve regina following the gregorian vespers when the monks pass in a solemn procession to the Lady chapel to sing there the salve regina in honor of the black Madonna. The imposing baroque church and the tousend-year-old benedictine abbey of Einsiedeln together with the famous abbey library are one of the major cutural attractions of Switzerland and make a perfect side-trip for tourists staying in Lucernce or Zurich. Other sights that enrich an excursion to Einsiedeln are the Diorama Bethlehem, the largest Christmas crib in the world, the Panorama Crucifixion of Christ, a giant circular painting, the gingerbread bakery museum(Schafböcke or Schafboecke) and the great hall of the monastery. The concerts in the abbey, above all the organ plays in the church and the set of concerts in the great hall, are popular with lovers of music. The four-part salve regina chant that follows the gregorian vespers should not be missed by anyone interested in gregorian music.

    Extractions: By Adele Ann Eberwein and Scott Mohan - March 8 The spotlight was on Roland "Roli" Hermann during the opening ceremonies last Sunday. He was our Master of Ceremonies, and he is also on the Cultural committee under the Swiss commitee. Roli did a great job with only one day of practice. His partner for the ceremonies broke his finger and left him all alone in front of everyone. With 6 interpreters working during the ceremony, Roli found the experience interesting as he was not prepared for the delay in communication. Often he had to wait for the interpreters to finish up translating. He believes that everything is going well in Davos as it is an outstanding location when it comes to sports and transportation. We asked him about the deaf community in Switzerland. The deaf community in Switzerland has been going through new changes. In the past, a lot of deaf people grew up orally until approximately 20 years ago when sign language became more widespread. There are 3 different sign languages in Switzerland. The people sign DSGS in the German region, and the people in the French region sign LSR. The people in the Italian region are influenced by the people of Italy. Not much research is being done on the sign language in the Italian region yet. There are a lot of research on both DSGS and LSR. In Basel, there is a center that does research mainly on DSGS.

    Extractions: W hat do you think of when someone mentions good chocolate, watches, the Alps, cows and cheese? You might think of Switzerland, but these things don't give the whole picture because they say nothing about the Swiss people. Last summer I got a real taste of Swiss life and self-reliance when I spent six weeks with a host family in the Bernese Alps. After much preparation and many last-minute errands, my departure time arrived. Needless to say, I was pretty nervous. All I knew about my host family was that it consisted of two parents and three kids: an 18-year-old girl and two boys (15 and 10). I knew I was staying in a place called Erlenbach in central Switzerland. Although I had read about Switzerland, I really didn't know what to expect. Now, let's back up for a second. I am not an incredibly outgoing person. Like many, I am loud and energetic around friends, but in class I'm shy and find it hard to speak up during discussions. Traveling to a foreign country to live with unfamiliar people would be difficult for anyone, and not many choose to engage in these programs for fear of unfamiliar things and being away from home. For me, homesickness has never been an issue, but I did have reservations. Doubts like Will my host family like me? What if I hate them? What if I get lost? What if I can't understand anyone? plagued me. But I put aside my anxiety and boarded the plane for Zurich. My host father picked me up at the train station and drove me to Erlenbach, a beautiful mountain village. On my application I had not specified whether I wanted to live in the country, a city or suburb, but I like the outdoors. Arriving in Erlenbach, I knew I couldn't have asked for a better setting. There was one store, a bakery, a church and something most Swiss towns require: a train station.

Culture in the Neighbourhood Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso) - Geneva (Switzerland) The Culture in the Neighbourhood Dassagho Association was created in January, 1998 to develop and implement neighbourhood projects. This Association comprises 600 members, all inhabitants of the neighbourhood. The "Théâtre de la Fraternité" of Ouagadougou was hosted in Geneva at the neighbourhood house of La Jonction. On July 3 and 4, 1998, this theatre group staged the play "The Visit of the Old Lady" in French. This play was written by Friedrich Dürrenmatt, a Swiss German and directed by Jean-Pierre Guingané of Burkina Faso. The Dassagho Dodo group was revived so that people today are still able to witness and appreciate this cultural practice involving masked dancers, singers and musicians performing a traditional ritual to pay tribute to the ancestors.
