Deutschkunde
Gerhard Waldherr begibt sich dorthin, wo und worüber man am besten lügen kann, ins Feld nämlich, wie man ethnologisch sagen würde. Auf der Suche nach der Antwort auf die Frage "Was macht uns Deutschen aus?" reist er durch Deutschland, besucht Heimaten, findet Gelegenheiten, Geschichten und Widersprüche an besonderen und an unspektakulären Orten und zeigt, wie ambivalent sich die Dinge darstellen, wenn man sie eingehender untersucht, und dass es ganz unterschiedliche Blicke gibt, die die Dinge wahrheitsgemäß abbilden können. Dieses Essay stammt aus dem Kursbuch 189.

The papers in this volume, on History and Historiography, Literary Composition and Crisis of Empire, were presented during the conference "Ammianus after Julian" held in 2005.
Tyrants Writing Poetry
As conventional understanding would have it, the sometimes brutal business of governing can only be carried out at the price of distance from art, while poetic beauty best fl ourishes at a distance from actions executed at the pole of power. Dramatically contradicting this idea is the fact that violent rulers are often the greatest friends of art, and indeed draw attention to themselves as artists. Why do tyrants of all people often have a particularly poetic vein? Where do terror and fi ction meet? The cultural history of totalitarian regimes is unwrapped in ten case studies, in a comparative perspective. The book focuses on the phenomenon that many of the great despots in history were them...
