| Summary | "The German Element in Brazil" by Benjamin Franklin Schappelle is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work explores the presence, history, and contributions of German-speaking settlers in Brazil, particularly focusing on their colonies and the dialect that evolved among them. It aims to inform an English-speaking audience about this relatively underrepresented aspect of Brazilian cultural history. At the start of the book, Schappelle introduces the primary purpose of the study: to detail the unique dialect developed by German-speaking communities in Brazil and to outline the historical background of German immigration and settlement. The opening chapters present details about the first settlers, notable historical figures, and various colonies in different Brazilian states, such as São Paulo and Rio Grande do Sul. The narrative combines accounts of early explorers, immigrant experiences, and cultural transformations, ultimately setting the stage for an in-depth exploration of the Brazilian German dialect, which emerged from this complex interplay of immigration and adaptation.
