ABSTRACT As a burgeoning literature on high-speed rail development indicates, good station-area planning is a very important prerequisite for the eventual successful operation of a high-speed rail station; it can also trigger opportunities for economic development in the station area and the station-city. At the same time, “on the ground” experiences from international examples of high-speed rail stations can provide valuable lessons for the California high-speed rail system in general, and the San Jose Diridon station in particular.

  • Robert Und Clara Schumann in Weimar
    1 Wolfgang Seibold Nach Weimar zieht es die Deutschen gewaltig hin.1 Robert und Clara Schumann in Weimar Der folgende Artikel ist die leichte Umformung eines Vortrages, gehalten am 15. April 2010 im Schillerhaus in Weimar. 1826 vollendete Goethe sein 77. Lebensjahr, Clara Wieck wurde sieben Jahre alt und Robert Schumann sechszehn. Für dieses Jahr läßt es sich zum ersten Mal nachweisen, dass einer von den beiden Schumanns, nämlich der junge Robert, seinen Fuß auf Weimarer Boden gesetzt hat. Da Schumann sein Leben überaus genau dokumentierte, können wir in seinem Tagebuch 19 auf einer Liste seiner Reisen lesen, dass der Sechszehnjährige im Jahr 1826 eine Fußreise von Zwi- ckau aus „Ueber Gera, Jena, Weimar, Gotha, Schnepfenthal2 nach Eisenach.“3 Unternahm. Am 18. August 1828 schrieb der frisch gebackene Abiturient (er begann im Mai dieses Jahres Jura-Studien in Leipzig) in sein Tagebuch: „Reiseplan nach Wei- mar; nach Weimar zieht es die Deutschen gewaltig hin; es ist auch einzig in der ganzen Geschichte.“4 In den weiteren Tagebuchzeilen findet sich allerdings kein Hinweis, dass er seinen Plan verwirklicht hat. Im Jahr darauf wechselte Schumann den Studienort und ging für drei Semester nach Heidelberg. 1829 kam er auf seiner Reise von Leipzig nach Heidelberg (dieses Mal nicht zu Fuß, sondern mit der Postkutsche) durch Weimar; lapidar 1 Robert Schumann, Tagebücher, Bd. 1 (Hg.
