Literary soirée on November 8, 7 p.m.

Diskussionsrunde im Salmen

Memory is a Janus-faced counterpart - on the one hand, it hurts to think about the past because it seems to be gone and lost forever, on the other hand, we draw strength from the feeling that we can always remember things that no one else knows. What strengthens and hurts on an individual level finds expression on a collective level in the phenomenon of trauma and repression as well as in the motif of coming to terms with the past. Literature has always been a means of remembering - those who write record the present as a future past.

How aware are young authors from Germany and France of their responsibility in this context?

This will be the subject of a literary soiree curated by Simon Strauß on November 8 at the Salmen.
