March 2001Bericht einer Reise in die Sächsische Schweiz
by Hans Christian Andersen, Ulrich Sonnenberg, Ludwig Richter, C. A. Richter
Hans Christian Andersen (1805 - 1875) war ein reisefreudiger Mann. Im Frühjahr 1831 fuhr er durch Deutschland und hielt seine Eindrücke in einem Reisebuch fest. Es sind die Schönheiten der Gegend um Dresden, die ihn besonders entzückten, es war die freundliche Aufnahme »vortrefflicher Menschen«, die ihm guttat, und es war die geheimnisvolle Melancholie, die über der Sächsischen Schweiz liegt, die seiner Herzensstimmung entgegenkam. Der Reisebericht, der in der ersten deutschen Gesamtausgabe von 1847 erschien, war um zahlreiche politische, religiöse und persönliche Passagen gekürzt worden, Kürzungen, die spätere Ausgaben beibehielten. Hier liegt Andersens Reisebericht erstmals mit dem ungekürzten Text vor: in der vollständigen Fassung in Deutschland ein bislang fast unbekanntes Werk.

True stories2019District D
by Artem Chekh
District D is a collection of stories united through a common time period and location, from which gradually emerges a portrait of the author against the backdrop of “other shores,” on which his childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood passed. The book paints a self-critical portrait of the author in which one can discern the features of husbandry and cosmopolitanism, pettiness and magnanimity, and much else. Simultaneously, it paints a group portrait of a few dozen more or less registered residents of the aforementioned Cherkasy district with their more or less successful attempts at surviving the unexpected transition from post-soviet to newly independent Ukraine. According to the author, District D served as therapy for his own traumatic experiences because he wrote it while serving in the war: “I would write it out of me and would feel better; I escaped from that war and those experiences into writing.”

March 2024Erinnerung an Hans
by Hermann Hesse, Volker Michels
Um sich den Verlust besonders nahestehender Menschen erträglicher zu machen, hatte Hermann Hesse die Gewohnheit, nachdem deren Todesnachricht ihn erreicht hatte und der Schmerz am empfindlichsten war, seine Erinnerungen an die Verstorbenen aufzuzeichnen. Denn eine der wichtigsten Funktionen der Literatur war für ihn das Aufbewahren des Vergänglichen im Wort, das Heraufbeschwören des Gewesenen durch möglichst genaue Schilderung. Solche Rückblicke, genannt »Gedenkblätter«, waren nicht nur Würdigungen der Verstorbenen, sondern stets auch Bestandteile seiner eigenen Lebensgeschichte. Zu den ergiebigsten dieser Aufzeichnungen gehören die Erinnerungen an seinen fünf Jahre jüngeren Bruder Hans, dem letzten der acht Nachkommen aus den beiden Ehen seiner Mutter. Wie es dazu kommen konnte, dass Hans sich im Alter von 43 Jahren das Leben nahm, berichtet der Dichter in dieser ergreifenden autobiografischen Erzählung. Das Nachwort schildert die Vorgänge aus anderen Quellen, ergänzt um die beiden Gedichte, die Hesse dem Bruder gewidmet hat.

November 2021The Forest of the Future – A New Reality
Understanding the ecosystem
by Hans Jürgen Böhmer
What happened with forest dieback? The predictions of the 1980s that forests would be in decline across Europe have not come true. Currently, attention again focuses on the doom scenarios of the loss of entire forests and cultural landscapes in an emotional and sometimes hysterical debate. Biogeographer Hans Jürgen Böhmer refers to updated case studies and his 30 years of research experience on global ecosystems to demonstrate extremely complex interrelations of the natural world that various actors monitor in contrasting ways and characterized by different times and ideologies. Böhmer advocates to embed the sustainability debate more strongly in the living environment, rather than relying exclusively on model calculations.

September 2003Hans Jonas – »Zusammen Philosoph und Jude«
Essay
by Christian Wiese
Hans Jonas verstand sich nie als »jüdischer Philosoph«, sondern fühlte sich einem universalen philosophischen Denken verpflichtet. »Daß man zusammen Philosoph und Jude ist, darin liegt eine gewisse Spannung, das ist keine Frage.« Die gerade erschienenen Erinnerungen des großen Denkers bezeugen eindringlich sein bewußtes Jude-Sein: Das Engagement für den Zionismus, die Emigration nach Palästina, der Kampf gegen Nazi-Deutschland als Soldat der Jüdischen Brigade, die Ermordung seiner Mutter in Auschwitz sind entscheidende biographische Wegmarken. Vor diesem Hintergrund ist das Verhältnis von Leben und Werk neu in den Blick zu nehmen. Auf der Grundlage von bislang größtenteils unbekannten Zeugnissen dokumentiert Christian Wiese aufschlußreiche Facetten der Jonasschen Biographie – etwa die Freundschaft sowie den Konflikt mit Gershom Scholem und Hannah Arendt. Zudem zeigt er die Einflüsse jüdischer Traditionselemente in dessen religionsgeschichtlichen und philosophischen Schriften auf. Die von Hans Jonas zeitlebens bewahrte Bindung an das Judentum ist, wie Christian Wiese hier erstmals umfassend vor Augen führt, zentral für das Verständnis seines Lebenswerks.
