One of the most significant books ever written by a head of state, the Meditations are a collection of philosophical thoughts by the Emperor Marcus Aurelius (121-180 ce). Covering issues such as duty, forgiveness, brotherhood, strength in adversity and the best way to approach life and death, the Meditations have inspired thinkers, poets and politicians since their first publication more than 500 years ago. Today, the book stands as one of the great guides and companions—a cornerstone of Western thought.

In ihnen zeigt Büchner Menschen im Spannungsfeld von Macht, Freiheit und existenzieller Not – mit einer sprachlichen Präzision und psychologischen Tiefe, die ihrer Zeit weit voraus waren. Auch die Erzählung Lenz zeugt von Büchners einzigartiger Fähigkeit, innere Zustände und seelische Grenzerfahrungen literarisch erfahrbar zu machen. Seine Texte brechen mit klassischen Formen, verzichten auf einfache Antworten und stellen die großen Fragen nach dem Menschen in einer oft widersprüchlichen Welt.

Für Voltaire genoss Dante den höchsten Ruhm, den man als Dichter überhaupt erklimmen konnte. Dieser war nämlich berühmt, ohne das man ihn großartig gelesen hätte. Dantes "Göttliche Komödie" ist in den Schatz der Menschheit mehr oder weniger durch Hörensagen eingegangen. Immerhin haben sich zahlreiche Deutsche an eine Übersetzung gewagt, wobei Stefan George als Expressionist das größte Risiko auf sich genommen hat. Mittlerweile ist zwar der Expressionismus aus der Mode gekommen, aber auf der Sprechbühne zeitigt er immer noch eine gewaltige emotionale Wirkung.

Childe Harold's Pilgrimage is a fascinating portrait of 19th-century Europe - disillusioned and ravaged by the wars of the postrevolutionary and Napoleonic eras. Our protagonist, whose breathtaking journey eerily echoes Byron's own life story, forgoes his destiny back home for the exciting unknown - the nature of humanity and the transformative effects of travel burst through the pages in four powerful cantos of Spenserian stanzas. Here is the poem that set Byron on his meteoric rise to fame in London society.

Rausch, Schmerz, Sucht – Georg Trakls Leben war geprägt von Extremzuständen und existenziellen Krisen. Dennoch erschuf der österreichische Lyriker und Expressionist in seinen gerade einmal 27 Jahren ein außergewöhnliches und beeindruckendes Werk, das bis heute nachhallt. 32 Schauspieler:innen, darunter Tobias Moretti, Paula Beer, Albrecht Schuch, Hannah Herzsprung, Max von der Groeben, Karoline Schuch u. v. a., interpretieren Trakls Gedichte auf vielstimmige Weise und erzeugen so, eingebettet in ein extra für diese Produktion geschaffenes Soundkonzept, einen ganz eigenen Trakl-Sound.

For the female poet there was always the confining hand of men to instruct that their time was perhaps spent more productively elsewhere. These lines, these gilded verses often protest otherwise. The contribution of women in these earlier centuries is immense, and in this series we bring together poets who have created some of the most beautiful and expressive verses ever written. And remember these words, these telling lines, have been written against the grain of society's male bias. With their remembered words these female poets have given us a history that we can all now share.

Byron's Don Juan is a comic masterpiece written in a satirical, mock heroic style. Based on the legend of Don Juan, (which is here pronounced JOO-AN), Byron completely reverses the portrayal of Juan, instead showing him as someone easily seduced by women instead of seducing them. He called this form of poetry "epic satire". It is generally considered to be Byron's masterpiece.

Today Byron is regarded as the ultimate romantic - a rebel, a Casanova, and a man of intense, brooding passion. He was the most famous literary man of his time, and his poetry, endlessly witty and often insightful, was immensely popular and hugely influential. From the delicate romanticism of "She Walks in Beauty" to the evocative reflections of "So We’ll Go No More a Roving", Byron’s poems were unrivaled in their power and potency.
