Kassel literature - brochure for literature walks now online
"This landscape is imbued with soul down to the smallest fold. Like everything great, it is like a half, a bridge and a transitus: to the south you can see Hesse and the Werra, to the north Eastphalia. And really - for it is only in exaggeration that one grasps the truth - here is the fundamental distinction between Scandinavia and Italy, between the pole and the equator."
Hans Jürgen von der Wense, who writes enthusiastically about Kassel here, is not the only regional author who is hardly known today. In order to make Kassel's literature more visible and audible, several student teaching projects and research projects have taken place in recent years:
- 2011-2015: "Literature in Kassel - more than just GRIMMIG" - student literature signage project
- 2018 "Kleines Kasseler Literatur-Lexikon" with over 450 personal articles; new editions of Kassel literature (Friederike Henkel, Ferdinande Brackel, Hans Eisenträger, Julia Virginia Scheuermann)
- 2018 Series of readings by and with students on Kassel literature (in Spohr Museum, Breitenau Memorial, GrimmWelt etc.)
- 2021 Online readings "Literature from Kassel for Kassel"
The brochure for the signage project is now also available online for anyone who would like to take a literature walk through Kassel: PDF
