Literature

Reading and discussion with Dr. Wolf Schmidt

The other Mecklenburg-Vorpommern is the unknown and mysterious, bizarre, misleading and irritating. Local history with a difference...

What does the place petrol have to do with the fuel, why did Bluetooth already exist on the Baltic Sea over 1,000 years ago? What exactly is the connection between fish tins and archaeology, cockchafers and Pomerania or French fries and Pomerania? And how did the South African strelitzia get the name of Slavic archers in Mecklenburg? There are also references between Mecklenburg and Switzerland, the Cretan side of Rügen and culinary depths.

It all sounds weird at first, and it is. But it's not nonsense, it's carefully researched by Wolf Schmidt, historian, author and founder of the "Mecklenburger AnStiftung". With a twinkle in his eye, he unfolds a new picture of the north-east in short essays with surprising references to the rest of the world - a country is better explored by taking side routes and detours than by taking the highway.

In cooperation with the Europäische Akademie Mecklenburg-Vorpommern e.V.

Admission is free.
