''Assabe and Sabina'' was a regionally popular Pennsylvania German dialect radio program that was broadcast from radio station WSAN in Allentown, Pennsylvania in the United States from 1944 until 1955. The show centered on the relationship between ''Der Assabe Mumbauer'', a Pennsylvania German farmer, and his wife, ''Die Sabina Mumbauer''. The character of Assabe was a "humorous prankster who frequently was in difficulty with his wife or with his neighbors."〔Rosenberger, p. 251.〕 ==History== Lloyd A. Moll created the program, and played the role of ''Der Assabe'' until his death, just a few weeks after the show's launch.〔 Dr. Harry Hess Reichard, professor of German at Muhlenberg College and noted Pennsylvania German scholar, then assumed the role of Assabe.〔 Paul R. Wieand, a local teacher, author and writer of dialect plays, played the role of ''Die Sabina'', Assabe's wife.〔 The show was first broadcast on January 16, 1944, and ran until 1955. It ran each Sunday, from 1:00 p.m. to 1:15 p.m.〔 After Moll's death, scripts were written by the Rev. Clarence R. Rahn. These scripts are archived in the Shadek-Fackenthal Library of Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Assabe and Sabina」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
