READING AND FILM

Paul Celan: ‘etwas ganz und gar Persönliches‘ – Die Briefe 1934-1970 (Something Entirely Personal” – Letters 1934-1970) (Selected, edited and annotated by Barbara Wiedemann/Suhrkamp)

Cornelius Hell will present the book, and
Bettina Rossbacher will read from it.

“691 letters, 330 of them previously unpublished, to 252 recipients, reveal a wealth of previously unknown biographical facts, making it possible to define his poetology more precisely, as well as showing him in his everyday routine.” (Publisher’s note)

Following this, Susanne Ayoub will show her film “Antschel” (with Klaus Demus / Sound: Barbara Heller) and give a talk about Klaus Demus and Paul Celan.

Moderator: Manfred Müller
In cooperation with the IWM (Institute for Human Sciences)
