Dear Lowlanders,<br>
<br>
Let me just briefly recap in English what has been transpiring between Arend
and me in Low Saxon in this thread.<br>
<br>
Arend informed us that this year another writer in the Netherlands won
the Freudenthal Prize, the currently most prestigious and inclusive Low Saxon
literature prize.<br>
<br>
This year's winner is Aly Freije who writes in Groningen Low Saxon and also
teaches writing (apparently has been a teacher of our Arend and Ingmar). Even
though I have not yet read the winning work, I know of Aly Freije and have read
some other works, and I can but agree that she is a most worthy addition to the
list of winners.<br>
<br>

<br>
Aside from a long list of winners in Germany
(beginning in 1957), there are now three winners in the Netherlands, one in England
and one in the USA.
At least two winners are members of Lowlands-L.<br>
<br>
As a member of the Freudenthal Society I am happy and proud about the prize
committee's atypically international approach, something that I believe the survival of the language requires.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Reinhard/Ron</span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"></span></p>
