Story
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart war nicht nur ein begnadeter Musiker, sondern auch ein leidenschaftlicher Briefeschreiber. Schon früh begann er, mit Freunden und Familienmitgliedern zu korrespondieren. Die meisten Briefe, die den Schlüssel zu Mozarts Leben und Werk liefern, sandte er an seinen Vater Leopold. Während er bei anderen Adressaten oft in einen spielerisch-schelmischen Schreibstil verfiel, zeigte er sich seinem Vater gegenüber tiefgründiger. Wer das »Wunderkind« nur von seiner musikalischen Seite kennt, sollte die Briefe von Vater und Sohn, gelesen von Peter und Paul Matić, unbedingt auf sich wirken lassen.

Story
Als Simenon nach Lüttich kommt, um seine greise Mutter in ihren letzten Tagen zu begleiten, richten sich Augen von verwaschenem Grau auf ihn. "Warum bist du gekommen, Georges?" So beginnt ein letztes, regloses Duell zwischen Mutter und Sohn. Aufgewachsen in ärmlichen Verhältnissen war das Leben der Mutter geprägt von Entbehrungen und von unbedingtem Aufstiegswillen. Menschen auf der Straße begegnete sie sanft, ihre Nächsten jedoch behandelte sie schroff und unduldsam. Ihr Sohn war nie gut genug. Haben sie einander je verstanden, haben sie sich je geliebt?

Il est une forme qui fertilise les champs littéraire et politique au XVIIIe : celle de la lettre. Et plus spécifiquement celle de la correspondance féminine. Elle est l'expression, pour les femmes de l'élite aristocratique, d'une progressive percée du domaine privé au terrain public. S'appuyant sur le précédent sévignéen, les épistolières ont compris que la lettre est action.

Story
Texte intégral lu par Thomas Compère Morel. "La Lettre au père" de Franz Kafka est l'une des œuvres majeures du XXe siècle. L'une des particularités de cette "Lettre au père", écrite en 1919, est que son destinataire n'en eut pas connaissance. La passion que Thomas Compère Morel nourrit pour Franz Kafka et pour sa "Lettre au père" nous a impressionnés. Son rapport fusionnel avec cette œuvre incomparable nous a convaincus qu'il pouvait en faire une lecture qui restitue la force et la beauté du texte.

Nature took on a new importance for thousands of people when the coronavirus pandemic arrived in Britain, providing solace in a time of great anxiety - not least because the crisis struck at the beginning of spring, the season of hope and renewal, and furthermore, in an extraordinary conjunction, the spring of 2020 turned out to be the loveliest spring ever recorded in Britain. Three nature writers, living like everyone else under lockdown, but walking out each day to exercise, resolved to record their experiences of the coronavirus spring, in widely contrasting parts of the country.

Story
Between 1881, when Churchill was just six, and 1921, the year of his mother's death, Winston Churchill and Jennie Jerome were prolific and energetic correspondents. Their exchange of letters has never before been published as a volume of correspondence, and many of these intimate letters - between two highly gifted writers - are being published here for the first time. A significant addition to the Churchill canon, Darling Winston traces Churchill's emotional, intellectual and political development as confided to his main mentor.

Story
A deeply private man, shut off even to those who worked closely with him, Abraham Lincoln often captured “his best thoughts", as he called them, in short notes to himself. He would work out his personal stances on the biggest issues of the day, never expecting anyone to see these pieces of writing, which he’d then keep close at hand, in desk drawers and even in his top hat. The profound importance of these notes has been overlooked, because the originals are scattered across several different archives and have never before been brought together and examined as a coherent whole.

"Lettera al padre" ("Brief an den Vater") è una lettera di Franz Kafka al padre, scritta nel 1919 e pubblicata postuma nel 1952. In questa lettera, come nei "Quaderni in ottavo", lo scrittore rende con chiarezza quei presupposti filosofici e psicologici che nei suoi romanzi tanto sono nascosti dallo stile e dai temi volutamente surreali e oscuri.

Story
Denkt man an Theodor Fontane, dann denkt man an "Effi Briest" oder an seine "Wanderungen durch die Mark Brandenburg". Fast vergessen dagegen sind seine Erlebnisse als Kriegsreporter bei den preußischen Truppen. So wurde Fontane bei einer Reise 1870 durch das halb besetzte Frankreich verdächtigt, ein Spion zu sein, geriet in französische Kriegsgefangenschaft in Paris und wurde erst auf Intervention Bismarcks freigelassen. Anschaulich und facettenreich liest Matthias Ponnier aus den wenig bekannten Kriegstagebüchern des berühmten Romanciers.

Story
Friedrich Hölderlin war ein Dichter, der um 1800 an der Enge seines Alltags zu ersticken glaubte. Die zweite Hälfte seines Lebens verbrachte Hölderlin allein in einem Turmzimmer in Tübingen - in geistiger Zerrüttung. Über hundert Jahre mussten vergehen, bis sein Talent erkannt wurde. Heute zählt Hölderlin zu den bedeutendsten Lyrikern der Literaturgeschichte. Das belegen auch seine Briefe - adressiert an Familie, Freunde und berühmte Zeitgenossen. Reiner Unglaub ermöglicht mit seiner Lesung mitunter intime Einblicke in Hölderlins Leben.

Story
Franz Kafka connut d'abord Milena comme traductrice : elle établissait la version tchèque de quelques-unes de ses proses courtes. Ces relations se transformèrent en une liaison passionnée dont les lettres permettent de suivre le progrès. Cette passion ne dura qu'un instant, elle tient en quelques mois à peine. Les lettres racontent d'un bout à l'autre ce roman d'amour, orgie de désespoir et de félicité, de mortification et d'humiliation.

"Walle! Walle manche Strecke, dass, zum Zwecke, Wasser fließe...."; wer kennt sie nicht, diese Verse aus dem "Zauberlehrling". Ganz sicher hätte sie Goethe nie geschrieben, wäre der Dichter nicht in regelmäßige Korrespondenz mit Schiller getreten. Ohne ihren regelmäßigen Austausch wäre die literarische Weimarer Klassik, als einer der Höhepunkte der Literatur, heute wohl anderen Inhalts und womöglich weniger reich an großartigen Texten. Begleiten Sie in den Briefen Goethe und Schiller in ihre Denkwerkstatt.
