Medienkompetenz und LiteracyBundeszentrale Politische Bildung Written by Peter H Bloecker (Retired Director Of Studies) Linked Credit phb Thomas Mann A Legacy of Literary Excellence and Cultural Reflection Born on June 6, 1875, in Lübeck, Germany, Thomas Mann emerged as one of the most significant literary figures of the 20th century. His profound exploration of the human condition, societal norms, and the complexities of modern life earned him the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1929. As we commemorate the 150th anniversary of his birth, it is essential to reflect on the reception of his work and the enduring legacy he has left behind. Reception of Thomas Mann's Work Mann's literary career began with the publication of his first novel, "Buddenbrooks" (1901), which garnered immediate acclaim and established him as a prominent voice in German literature. The novel, a semi-autobiographical account of a declining merchant family, resonated with readers for its intricate character studies and social commentary. Mann's ability to weave personal and historical narratives captivated audiences, and he quickly became a central figure in the literary circles of his time. His subsequent works, including "Death in Venice" (1912) and "The Magic Mountain" (1924), further solidified his reputation. "Death in Venice," with its themes of beauty, obsession, and mortality, sparked discussions about art and morality, while "The Magic Mountain" delved into the philosophical and existential questions of life, illness, and time.

Screenshot Banksy in Hamburg | Credit phb Seitdem ich Adler und Engel im Abitur mit Schuelern und Schuelerinnen im LK Deutsch gemeinsam gelesen und diskutiert habe, folge ich dieser erfolgreichen Autorin immer wieder: Ich lese ihre neuen Buecher, hoere ihrem Podcast zu (Schreibwerkstatt via Media Pioneer Gabor Steingart) und verfolge diverse Aufzeichnungen über Youtube. Neu in der Reihe Sternstunden der Philosophie ist die folgende Sendung mit Barbara Bleisch: Ich empfehle dieses Interview, weil Juli Zeh nicht nur hellsichtig und wach und glasklar Perspektiven fuer die kommenden Jahre in Deutschland aufzeigt: Sie kann klar denken, mit Weitblick sehr gut formulieren, und bringt am Schluss zum Ausdruck, warum sie sich trotz ihrer Mitgliedschaft in der SPD nicht fuer eine politische Karriere entscheiden kann und will. Was ich sehr gut nachempfinden kann: Sie bleibt wie ein Schuster bei ihren Leisten! Denn sie weiss genau, dass ihr schwaches Nervenkostuem fuer einen Posten in der Politik nicht ausreichen wuerde. Sehr gut, Chapeau, Juli Zeh! Eine sehr gute Sendung, die ich nur jedem empfehlen kann! Und bitte bis zum Schluss dranbleiben, das lohnt sich sehr. Danke Juli Zeh und Barbara Bleisch.

Describe a phase in life that was difficult to say goodbye to. Once a teacher, always a teacher … The problem obviously is, you cannot stop curiosity! But you can stop educating or even teach people.

Glorreiche Rebellen The First Romantics and the Invention of the Self - Magnificent Rebels written by Andrea Wulf Magnificent Rebels (Titel) This book offers a captivating exploration of the first German Romantic movement, centering around the group of visionary thinkers and writers known as the Jena Set. Set against the backdrop of late 18th and early 19th century Europe, the book delves into the lives of key figures such as Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Friedrich Schiller, Friedrich Hölderlin, Novalis, the Schlegel brothers, and the Humboldt brothers. The focus, however, is on Caroline Schlegel! Overview The book paints a vivid picture of the intellectual and cultural ferment in Jena, where these brilliant minds gathered to challenge conventional thinking and explore new artistic and philosophical frontiers. The Jena Set was characterized by its emphasis on emotion, imagination, and the beauty of nature, laying the foundation for German Romanticism and the school of Novalis and his closer friends. Intellectual and Social Dynamics Andrea Wulf highlights the dynamic interactions, collaborations, and sometimes tumultuous relationships among the members of the Jena Group of innovative readers and writers and thinkers. The book delves into their shared aspirations, intellectual debates, and the profound impact they had on each other's work. They were close friends and sometimes met each day or eveninf, at least visititing Jena and the Schlegel house regularly. The older Goethe, the tolerant adviser, mostly came…
