„Nur eine Rose als Stütze!“ Hilde Domin und das deutsche Wort
In the organizer's words:
Leadership
Hilde Domin described her life as a “linguistic odyssey,” a journey from one language to another. Raised in the Agnesviertel, she, as a Jew, was forced to emigrate. She first lived in Italy for several years and then fled from there, via various detours, to the Dominican Republic.
Triggered by a crisis, she began to write: “So I got up and went home, into the word (…). But the word was the German word.” The author borrowed the pen name Domin from her new homeland. In 1959, her first collection of poems, *Nur eine Rose als Stütze* (*Just a Rose for Support*), was published. Her poetry appears simple, but is in fact passionate and profound.
