Max Kade Institute For German American Studies

The Max Kade Institute for German-American Studies, located at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, is dedicated to the research and promotion of German language and literature in North America. It offers a range of resources, including library materials, exhibits, and events that highlight the contributions of German-American culture.

One of the institute's notable figures, Lester W. J. Smoky Seifert, significantly advanced the study of German dialects in the region. His pioneering work in the documentation of Wisconsin's German language and culture has been instrumental in understanding the linguistic heritage of German immigrants in the area.
