Hanna Schygulla reads Stéphane Hessel in Berlin’s Literaturcafé
Commemorating a resistance fighter, poet and essayist
On Tuesday, June 4, 2013 at 8 p.m., the co-author of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and political activist Stéphane Frédéric Hessel is being commemorated. He died in February this year.
In 2010 his essay “Time for Outrage!” attracted worldwide attention due to its trenchant critique of various current political developments and its call for resistance. The evening event in Berlin is being hosted by Peter von Becker and Hanna Schygulla. They will both read poems from Hessel’s autobiographical work “Ô ma mémoire.”
The cost of admission is 8 €. Refreshments will be provided.
