Is there any Swiss culture translated into English?

Although many foreign writers and artists (such as Voltaire, Byron, Shelley, James Joyce and Charlie Chaplin) once lived or settled in Switzerland, Switzerland has no profound artistic heritage. In contrast, many creative Swiss, such as Charles le corbusier, paul klee, Albert giacometti and Jean Luc Godard, left Switzerland and made their mark abroad.

Hermann hesse, a naturalized Swiss writer, is the most famous "local" writer. His novel Siddhartha was once found in the backpack of every westerner who went to India. Max frisch, a German-born Swiss playwright and novelist, was one of the most respected writers in Europe in the 1950s. His best-selling 1957 novel Homo Faber was shot by volker schoendorff in 199 1 year and published under the name Voyager. Rousseau118th century works living in Geneva played an important role in the development of democracy, while carl jung living in Zurich played an important role in the development of modern psychoanalysis.

Swiss folk culture includes Jodl tune, playing Alpine horn and Swiss wrestling. We advise you not to indulge in these things after spending a night in a Swiss pub.

Switzerland is a language melting pot with three official federal languages. German (the most common dialect is called Schwyzertütschis) accounts for 66% of the population, French accounts for 18%, and Italian accounts for 10%. The fourth language is Romansh, which is spoken by 65,438+0% of the population, mainly in Graubenden. Derived from Latin, it is a linguistic relic that survived in an isolated valley.

There is no great tradition of local cuisine in Switzerland. On the contrary, Swiss cuisine draws on the essence of German and French cuisine. Cheese is an important part of the Swiss diet. Emmentale and Gruyere mixed with white wine to make hot pot, which was put in a big jar and eaten with croutons. Rosti (crisp, fried and chopped potato) is the national dish of Germany and Switzerland. Fresh fish from many lakes often appear on the menu, especially bass and trout. Swiss chocolate itself is great and is often used in desserts and cakes.

It's simpler. You can translate it yourself, hehe.
