  • Commemoration in Melk, 7Th of May 2018 „Escape and Home“
    Commemoration in Melk, 7th of May 2018 „Escape and Home“ Mag. Gerhard Karner (2. NÖ Landtagspräsident) Commemorate, recall, remember, never forget, never again – The annual commemorations or also this commemorative year 2018 (80 years Anschluss – the incorporation of Austria into Nazi Germany): these occasions urge us again and again to deal with our own history – to deal with our history in a critical and brutally honest way! And we do this, every year, also here, in this place: But the commemoration has never been this tangible, this concrete and this terribly close. 4884 names stand for unspeakable suffering and destruction. 4884 names stand for a terror regime which humiliated, tortured and assassinated human beings. 4884 names make it our mission to not let it be forgotten what happened and to always speak up for tolerance and human dignity in remembrance of the victims. Dear ladies and gentlemen, In the name of the province of Lower Austria and and on behalf of its governor Mrs. Johanna Mikl-Leitner I warmly greet you and welcome you in Melk. Welcome to this commemoration in our province. A commemoration which has added a new dimension here in Melk by creating a network with other memorials and events in the context of the project “Zwischenräume” (interspaces). So my I would like to thank Alexander Hauer and Christian Rabl for giving serious thought to how commemoration can be, stay relevant, and continue to have an effect! Thank you to the students, educators and all people who contribute to the commemoration. Thank you to every one of you who came here today to commemorate.

    10th EUROPEAN LITERATURE DAYS 22-25 NOVEMBER 2018 SPITZ/KREMS A.D. DONAU CONTENTS 3 Foreword 5 Agenda at a Glance 13 Agenda in Detail 29 Fringe Programme / Moderators 34 Readings / Workshops in Schools 37 Tickets / Booking and Reservations Service / Venues Dear Guests and Participants of the European Literature Days! The European Literature Days celebrate their first milestone: 2018 is the tenth anniversary year. This unique literature festival enjoys an outstanding reputation far beyond our country’s bor- ders. It is fortunate that our ten-year anniversary coincides with Austria’s EU-Presidency. This is a wonderful occasion that I wish to mark by highlighting Austria’s decisive contribution to culture. I refer to the European dimension, which characterizes our culture, and which the European Literature Days bring to life in an exemplary fashion. A host of internationally renowned writers gathers again in the Wachau region to share ideas. In 2018, the focus continues to be the topical themes of contemporary so- ciety: How is the world educated? What is the status of reading books and literary film? And what is the position of literary- artistic narrative in the age of wall-to-wall media coverage? I am convinced that literature is still relevant today. The European Literature Days are a model that underlines this. Besides the intellectual exchange, the highlight of the festival are meetings with prominent European writers – this special inter- action gives the European Literature Days their unique appeal for interested guests and visitors. Stimulating events inspire curiosity for reading books. The Wachau countryside, the historic locations in Spitz and Stein an der Donau with their wonderful ambiance and not least the regional gourmet food provide the ideal backdrop for this festival.

  • 20171125 Danube Waltz
    Danube Waltz Saturday, November 25, 2017 We arrived on time in Munich and quickly cleared customs. A Viking representative met us and as we were assembling I changed dollars for Euros. When all of our group w as collected we went outside to board the bus but our coach had been redirected around the airport once again by the polizi so we waited for another fifteen minutes. Oliver, our driver, arrived in a Viking coach and we set out for the 130 kilometer drive north to Passau. We were delighted by the beautiful drive through Bavaria. As we drove we saw numerous fields containing solar panels. These went on for miles. We also saw a nuclear power plant and one windmill. Arriving at the city we saw a Viking ship at the city center but that was not our vessel. The Skadi was three kilometers further. We would in-process to the ship and sail to the city center later. Passau is a town in Lower Bavaria, Germany. It is also known as the Dreiflüssestadt or "City of Three Rivers," because the Danube is joined at Passau by the Inn from the south and the Ilz from the north. Passau's population is 50,000 of whom about 12,000 are students at the local University of Passau. It is renowned in Germany for its institutes of economics, law, theology, computer 107 science and cultural studies. In the 2nd century BC, many of the Boii tribe were pushed north across the Alps out of northern Italy by the Romans. They established a new capital called Boiodurum by the Romans (from Gaulish Boioduron), now within the Innstadt district of Passau.

DANU´BIUS (Δανούβιος: the Danube), on coins and inscriptions frequently called DANUVIUS, the greatest river in south-eastern Europe. Its sources are at Donaueschingen, on the Mons Abnoba, and, after a long course through Vindelicia, Noricum, Pannonia, and Dacia, it divides itself near Noviodunum into three main branches, so as to form a delta, and empties its waters into the Euxine.
