Dieter Fortes Bedeutung in der deutschen Literatur. Kritikergespräch

In the organizer's words:

Dieter Forte's work has touched on numerous aspects that stimulate debate - the criticism of religion in his successful play "Martin Luther & Thomas Münzer oder Die Einführung der Buchhaltung" (1970) or the Düsseldorf mass murderer Peter Kürten as a theatrical subject in his drama "Das Labyrinth der Träume oder Wie man den Kopf vom Körper trennt" (1983). His portrayal of the bombing war in the novel "Der Junge mit den blutigen Schuhen" (1995, later published under the title "Tagundnachtgleiche") was hotly debated when the novel was published. Gerrit Bartels and Dr. Lothar Schröder, moderated by Dr. Enno Stahl (Heinrich Heine Institute), will discuss this topic. Bartels is head of the culture section of the Berlin newspaper "Tagesspiegel", Schröder is head of the arts section of the Rheinische Post. They will also talk about Forte's role in the German literary scene and his significance for recent literary history.
