The German Aphorism Archive was founded in Hattingen 20 years ago. The literary scholars Jürgen Wilbert and Friedemann Spicker were and still are in charge. The various activities developed there include "aphoristic portraits" presented in dialog. These are collages containing aphorisms as well as short excerpts from letters and diaries. Spicker and Wilbert have now compiled a selection of these portraits. In addition to trenchant life wisdom, it also offers a look at the human peculiarities of the aphorists.
