Conversation
Wolfgang M. Schmitt in conversation with Ole Liebl about "Die Wahlverwandtschaften" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The nuclear family has not completely dissolved, but it has long been in competition with other relationship and family models. Will friendships become more important when love relationships prove to be fleeting? And should we replace the family, which is linked to ideas of lineage and generations, with relatives of our own choosing? Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was already thinking about this in 1809 when he published his novel "Elective Affinities", in which he explores a radically new concept of family and relationships. What does the classic have to say to us and what do we have to say to the classic more than 200 years later? Should we give free rein to our desires? Has reason had its day? What place do lovers have in society? Goethe's masterpiece "Elective Affinities" still fascinates and provokes. YouTuber and podcaster Wolfgang M. Schmitt discusses this politically charged book with author and TikToker Ole Liebl, whose recently published book "Freunde lieben. Die Revolte in unseren engsten Beziehungen" (Loving Friends. The Revolt in Our Closest Relationships).
