Ein Glücksfall für die Historiker: Harry Graf Kessler (1868 - 1937) beschreibt das Zeitgeschehen im Jahr 1928. Das Erscheinen seines Rathenau-Buches schlägt hohe Wellen. Der Kulturbetrieb ist begeistert. Aber der Geheimdienst beanstandet Textpassagen und diplomatische Verstimmungen werden ausgelöst. Ansonsten ist "der Gesellschaftsmensch" Kessler sehr umtriebig. Oft in Frankreich aber auch in Berlin. Zum Beispiel zur Aufführung der brandneuen "Dreigroschenoper". Berührend ist das Wiedersehen mit dem Tänzer Vaslav Nijinsky.

Ein Glücksfall für die Historiker: Harry Graf Kessler (1868 - 1937) beschreibt das Zeitgeschehen im Jahr 1929. Es ist schwieriges Jahr. Zwei weitere Freunde sterben: Hugo von Hoffmannsthal und Sergei Djaghilew, und zusammen mit dem Tod des beliebtesten Europäers Gustav Stresemann schließt sich für Kessler "seine Epoche" ab. Es ist sein "Année terrible". Zudem erscheint "Im Westen nichts Neues" von Erich Maria Remarque und der Knabe Jehudi Menuhin erstaunt allgemein mit seinen Beethoveninterpretationen auf der Geige.

Die Mutter des großen Johann Wolfgang von Goethe war eine fleißige Briefschreiberin, obwohl sie selbst mehrfach betont, sie schreibe nicht gern. Viele ihrer Briefe sind - von ihrem Sohn - verbrannt worden, aber immerhin 414 sind erhalten geblieben. Sie alle werden hier vorgelesen.

DAG 5 MÅNDAG 23 JULI 2001 5.53: Solen som skiner genom gallret på mitt fönster tyder på att det måste vara en härlig sommardag. Jag har fängslats i en mycket liten cell i tolv och en halv timme och kommer inte att släppas ut igen förrän på middagstid. Totalt arton och en halv timmes isolering. I cellen nedanför min sitter en sjuttonårig kille. Han har anklagats för snatteri, det är hans första förseelse. Han är inte ens dömd, ändå låser de in honom på isoleringen i närmare ett dygn utan möjlighet att prata med någon.

World War II rises in its vastness and complexity over the rest of human history. A number of victims difficult to conceive, never surpassed by any other conflict - this is an insurmountable encyclopedia on war. This diary of the Second World War has been able to cover all facets of the conflict, and it is a fundamentally empirical work that narrates events as they occurred. This episode contains, day by day, the month of October 1941.

When the state of Colorado ordered its residents to shelter in place in response to the spread of coronavirus, writers Pam Houston and Amy Irvine — who had never met — began a correspondence based on their shared devotion to the rugged, windswept mountains that surround their homes, one on each side of the Continental Divide. As the numbers of infected and dead rose and the nation split dangerously over the crisis, Houston and Irvine found their letters to one another as necessary as breath.

Die Art wie hier zwei Große miteinander umgingen  - offen, herzlich, klug und nicht kritiklos  -  demonstriert unübersehbar: Goethe und Schiller vermochten ihr Humanitäts-Ideal nicht nur poetisch darzustellen, sondern auch zu leben. Am 13. September 1795 begann Schiller seinen Brief an Goethe folgendermaßen: "Nur ein kleines Lebenszeichen. Ich kann mich gar nicht daran gewöhnen, Ihnen acht Tage nichts zu sagen und nichts von Ihnen zu hören."

Helen Garner has kept a diary for almost all her life. But until now, those exercise books filled with her thoughts, observations, frustrations and joys have been locked away, out of bounds, in a laundry cupboard. Finally, Garner has opened her diaries and invited audiences into the world behind her novels and works of non-fiction. With their frankness, humour and steel-sharp wit, these accounts of everyday happenings provide an intimate insight into the life of one of Australia’s greatest writers.

Lo poco que me es posible prometer aquí es que si mis crónicas se leen con buen ánimo y sin mala leche entonces el viaje será compartido y nadie se arrepentirá. "La gente no es mala si tiene espacio donde moverse", se escucha decir a un personaje en Hotel Savoy, la novela de Joseph Roth.
