This region of many peoples – \"and in the midst of them all the Jewry\" – was at the same time filled with the historical crimes of the Germans and memories of his own childhood and youth. With Gabi Streichhahn and Ute Falkenau as host, his poems and stories are presented, whose blend of weighty archaism and radical modernity make them a rare linguistic pleasure.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/berlin/events/salon-bei-schleiermacher-johannes-bobrowski-eine-hommage-29185/", "official_url": "https://marienkirche-berlin.de/kalender/?etID=748993&dest=extern&until=yes&q=", "image": "", "dates": [{"start": "2026-11-02T19:30:00+01:00", "end": null, "place": "St. Marienkirche", "address": "Karl-Liebknecht-Straße 8, 10178 Berlin", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "»Jüdisches Weißensee« – Jüdische Geschichte(n) in der Gegenwartsliteratur.
