when we say they're never giving up every weekend on d w, the monumental novel is a 100 years old, but still has a lot to say about the present facility to todd herschel tales. this integration into escape as a satirist goes too far. then you have to investigate the call to book the dots and then it must be more than an entire jokers has hosted eccentrics looking for their nation. been chanita protection. i'm afraid of the reality out there and a pop icon from iran who lends her voice to the fight for freedom. the welcome to arts unveiled

the, the 1st to a highly topical novel about war. hate speech. the populism a deadly pandemic, and society on the edge of a press. it sounds like we're talking about today, right? actually it's all in a novel published a 100 years ago. the magic mount bye to him us marshall's i'm just on awful addresses issues that still concern us today. issues we still discussed with great enthusiasm. oh, great hostility to the home on this novel come better explained to us problems. we're currently experiencing things that warriors can today. people are also taking a closer look at the books. we're eleanor, which have always been you can. okay. so i think it's a fascination read and a novels it has many interpretations. it has many layers in many things. it's also a 1000 pages long, it's a literal literary,

heavy weight. so what makes it worth the reading or even a secondary magic mountains? 100 year anniversary is being marked with an exhibition in 2 months, months hometown and flew back with stage production. even a sequel, not written by someone's mind himself, obviously. but 1st, what's it about okay, what's that the same? it's the swiss alps at a sanatorium. that's a kind of health resort or clinic where people think the fresh air will cure them of a long disease. and there was plenty of long disease at the time, 2 months, months such as novel and $19.00 oh $7.00. when temperature low says still a leading cause of death in here. and the best treatment people can get if they can afford it, is breathing good air. and just waiting around to get better, and they can wait a long time, answer if the story is young here, some us months. main character goes to visit his sick cousin. how does it people we meet this character, hans cast or 9 who travels into this world and ends up staying for 7 years and is

confronted with all the ideological political and philosophical debates of the time . that's what's funny about the book is even though has kind of started as actually healthy, he really gets into the santa torrie, the people, their philosophical debates, and just the culture of being a patient there. strict health routines, luxurious meals, obsessive temperature and taking he ends up living like one of them, the ones on the end thoughts and then in an isolated hermetically sealed place. the questions of humanity are played out on all possible levels. even the conch building was progress, science love plays a major role, deaf is very present and so all the big topics and so much fun creates 2 character patients of the clinic who really are polar opposites and their philosophies, sets and brittany on the one hand, p stands for progress and individual freedom for him light and then there's now

stuff she wants to see society dominated by it. so tell a terry and rosie to talk with her and resumes were starting to take power in europe at that time with the rise of communism as fast as, as concerns cast off his coat between these 2 that the whole novel revolt around the decision which site to take but at least both these characters become his concepts, mentors and he's really torn between the 2 philosophies. eventually search most of debates turn violence to rival space, often a do. and that's just the beginning of the violence. the book ends in 1914 with the start of world war one has cost or disappearing. and so the chaos of battle. when the magic mountain came out, it quickly became an international best seller, translated into many different languages. and over the decades influential people have claimed it as their favorite book, like american critics, susan sontag, who said she'd read it 7 or 8 times in span. big fan clubs cropped up at schools, and universities are listening. you don't have to have 3 talk trips in nature to

understand to them this month because there's a lot of irony and humor in his work. no more. it's about very serious things. but the book itself is an enjoyable experience. and there was some really hilarious things from you in the so in the event that you sent us and got the of cc, much one group of people who didn't think the magic mountain was funny. it was the tourism board and thought both switzerland, they thought the books may have the town looked bad. they actually asked another big german writer of the time of college tests, not to write a novel, but pains of the town in a better way to almost mine life. quite a while born in 1875 at the beginning of the german empire, his diaries reveal that he was bisexual at a time when that was not accepted. in 1929, he won the nobel prize for his novel vote. inbox. later, the fled nazi germany with his wife katya. a jewish convert to christianity,

and there are 6 kids. so let's take a step back in 1912, katya of mine had been diagnosed with tuberculosis and told him, as mine went to visit her at a santoria, i'm and of a switzerland that became, has an inspiration with mom. it's all coincidence. and so we imagined he must have sat there for years, thinking about how to do it. but it's all coincidence that's so fine. originally wanted to write the magic mountain as a short story on and it turned into a 1000 page novel insight. and it took him 12 years to write it. he was interrupted by world war one, but also he was going through a shift in his own minds. when he started writing the book, he was very pro war said 15 in 1914 thomas mont allowed himself to be carried away by the and suzy as him for war, that was driving many intellectuals officers, writers and artists of the time, i missed him. so he was in the front line of advocating for it. and in 1918 when

germany was defeated, it was a lost cause and he went to a very isolated amazon who must monthly hold, those mountains switch sides, and the 1920s he became one of the most eloquent defenders of the republic. and by the 19 thirty's during his exile and the united states a true believe it and democracy, it will come. when the nazis came to power in 1933, thomas my left germany with his family, moved to switzerland pen to the united states. and later, back to switch from us mind advocated for tolerance and human dignity. and some of the dive in 1955, which almost month wrote the magic mountains. he was thinking about his own process of political transformation. he puts a lot of the old him, the pro war him, that he distance himself from, into the character of nafta. leslie's hand to muslim watson price is the most about thomas. mine is honest and sincere willingness. i'm courage to change his mind to put his views, the task again and again,

and to arrive at new views on and to stand up for those new views until until he revises them. again. i think of this, some of the magic mountain reflects exactly that in this up when the magic mountain came out in 1924 european society was really on edge. there's a feeling like today actually the restlessness of heightens tensions, existential dread, and the feeling that society could go off the rails. that's what i can do. what was in the air, he writes in the novel, you can sense of tremendous on ease of fear of the future. and suddenly there's the situation at the end of the novel where things are unraveling uncertainties to where they start hitting each other, where they're cursing at the steps where the craziest ideas of merch off and people are literally losing their minds, boston and as walters. someone's mind writes about total polarization division. people who stopped listening. cuz now i'm actually cuz the tipping point today and

this time of great eligibility, all you have to do is turn on any evening talk show and you'll see that people are interrupting each other, not disciplining, like just getting else opinions that go to holland muncie politics falling into populace and what we now call hate speak to this information. he sees the tensions and the dangers that are later going to lead to the fall of the weimar republic. germany's 1st attempt, real parliamentary democracy, ended with the nazi here is coming in if you can follow it in vivid detail. he describes it with a tremendous aesthetic sense and tremendous psychological insight creates an atmosphere where the end, you just wonder who will shoot 1st. first in the jewel and then at the very end, the war in which the whole thing culminates, the pursuits 1st. even today we see people turning to violence and they can't get their way with work. they look at them,

i think it's sadly current. we should keep that in mind a not in a good way. it's been a century a 100 years and was still at the same place, the, the whole stuff and then use me. yes, i'm or is couple see what at the end of the magic mountain to him, us mon asks, out of this universe or feast of deaths out of this extremity of fever, tingling the rain washed evening sky to a fiery glow. may it be that love one day? so now we should be ashamed of humanity that we still haven't done since the books . great final question after this universal feast of death. may it be that love one day shall mount this question about the horrible 20th century. the 21st century starting the exact same way with the next universal feast of death and do crating them. the middle lease to the models of mine was also ahead of his time when it came to sexuality earlier. nobel as 20 or career guy and death in venice at strong homo erotic under the magic mountain contains motifs that

are obviously clear beneficial because one of the books greatest strengths that it breaks every cliche, especially when it comes to questions of how to talk about in the body sexuality under ros. this is an x. okay, keep the whole thing comes custom falls in love with a woman, but i'm so shocked. but she reminds him of a male classmates that he wants fancy. besides the, the question of what a man is, what a woman is, what's masculine, what's feminine, and what is perceived as attractive, erotically attractive? all of that is fluid here. and gender fluidity was not mainstream. thomas monster and homosexuality was totally tab boot for most of society. is i think, was a criminal offense. in the 19 twenty's thomas mind campaigned against paragraph $175.00, which criminalize homosexual relationships and act towards month own desire for man was something she lived out and secret to the outside world. she was an upstanding, heterosexual citizen, with a wife and 6 kids. love,

hates politics and passion. they're all here in the magic mount to his mind. leaves it up to you though, how you want to interpret that. i'm just going sometimes we have to find out own way just like the characters in the story. it can. i think that in times of the fake news and everything happening quickly. this idea of having to read with critical lies and do that for ourselves and stay awake. that is the most current seeing what the numbers and that's what i liked the best. okay, so i sort of myself do i. e s was located monumental style and in case the idea of reading a 1000 pages seems overwhelming my document. you can always skip a hand. these lots of readers have told me which parts they skipped, but they thought, and then i'll some people may skip over parts of months master piece, but others give themselves permission to write part to the. those quite simple is that the tool must month conference. the magic mountain top to is about to be published. the also is not to

last month. right to and such high risk times told is the bold pretend the audience is skeptical. because how much from canada? so it was clear to me from the get go that certain cumulus circles would suspect i was failing, the german nest stayed on the best of crating a literary relic by simply hanging to on. it's on the that's the joke, the hen dying of the sick out of its time strong because no stranger to provocation . in the 19 ninety's, a studio brown he's spouse, hold people with telephone pranks, fold them with a documentary about his band factors, and landed in the best set of this 20 years ago with his level flight just mind to me is a nice as my vegetables and now the magic mountain to get up in front of i had the idea from the outset that the title in the cover would be in the type face of the arnold schwartzenegger auction, who to terminate or to in order to underlined the identity of i'm so i'm scared the small minded to even more from the long if i shake of your own entrance and is it

all just provocation? oh, does it reflect some of the magnificence of the original $156.00 original passages from thomas minds magic mountain on moving into the new book, and the cost of characters from the senatorial baton. in modified folded, hands cast off as now. it starts up 1000000 that having us psychological crisis, all united custom, the original custom was lost in the turmoil of the 1st world war. and my own as high drink is also last hyperlink, you know, for me. but i won't tell you how, how v, as long as they're today to the colors, this is killed with antibiotics. so hind total cost is patients suffer from found out the new mass disease display. the willingness to prevent a hunched old is aware of his responsibility as to most months successor. when he gets happy starting headed, we're on the risk of getting myself into trouble. then i'd rather not then had to

go through that will keaton. before i make a fool of myself and the other one, which one? if you have the audacity to call the book the magic mountain to the school system, then it has to be more than just accommodating the tar joe task. so them, some of the funding you have to do with justice functioning that i forgot about his work doesn't do justice to the length of the original. the magic mountain to has a may of 280 pages, but strong coach that this will help his read. just persevere to the end. and now to an exhibition in munich that celebrates being different curtain up for eccentricity in disneyland. oh, must of cut on an unlocked little cotton, coney, eccentric office and creations come together that she dissolved and exuberant and they delight and sell style. nice things. been shots,

i do protection. i'm afraid of reality out there. that's why i love masks, cost doing this disguise. and suppose with gestures extensive sentences defies all conventions. they get half of these cards betsy, they have a need for ever more idiosyncrasy. yeah, i can send 100 percent drug personalities. don't want to exclude anything. i'm still not sick, even though i create a world where everyone is. welcome. yes, to all the different, bold, unconventional dice this. yes, to all. that's a yes to all. that's preventative. open the borders. anything goes to other 2 visas that this sentence is an manipulative sentence that tells you find your own way. and they're the ones that pre aysa end of dealer and bassett is pablo. have been in the living work of all sorts of also events worldwide for over 30 years. when it was, we going to cost all the use solar energy to change something. so even the smiles

we put on her face has changed something. so and that it was a life spent and like on the opposite side is a female. it's an invention as an art figure with our work of art is can we really take risks in everyday life? i think on the one hand, it's a form of cedar and staging, but at the same time it's also real life. i start this all. this is the video collection living load eccentricity comes from the creek, x country to step out of the center. we distance ourselves from what we think of as normal because of its limits, because the polar band might not be a predator it's hold, but would rather be advancing back what that think it extent does it as soon as guides and interesting, concentric personalities do take certain risks when they go out in public, the c 5 are different or they stand out. the f e w naturally attract attention to

origin or even regression from others spot. then on more or talk to someone from the end of the. busy eccentric aesthetics of freedom, the title of the exhibition in unique? well, some of the schools a political time mentioned. people like sophia, zeus makes you courageously and even passionate, least of the social conventions, all in a way immune to censorship. especially my boyfriend, for example, michael tooth is also a political act for me because firstly, thirdly, i was interested in what happens when i make myself ugly on purpose. what does that do to me? what does it do to my life, to the people around me? if i directly and quite clearly refused to even look at myself with your patriarchal glasses with your beauty still, and it's just, it's a personal statement that i don't even recognize your normal as normal guys as the eccentric can also be disturbing. like not ordering books,

gynecology chat and instruments of torture and pleasure. o chloe, my seeming be pulling the graphic and yet strangely bloodless. we offer us some interest of the gods, scandalously, eccentric, and current hail bodies are exposed to violated and turned into fetishes. the reactions of the audience were extreme dizziness painting. i know the, i feel that you don't have to go into the hosting or, and it wouldn't. i mean, it's not just about provoking for the sake of provocation thoughts. so not but about doing something different on the task and it's not something non normative. so it's a tool and x and tricity seems to stem from a deep and the need to need to express an intrinsic low. get mentioned a few is, are people who feel safe in the world that they have to find for themselves and then in the world that others have defined for them. if in the tab,

at the same time eccentric students need to follow is oldest people's, it's enough recognition for them that we see their odessa t and brilliance. monuv. that's what makes the exhibition in the seniors we see here so attractive, even though they are who they are, the volume county, they don't want to be any different puts motor is search who they are with us and that gives us courage. and we want to support that, but this exhibition he's always doing well with the states and you know, and, and encourage people to become a little more colorful types of in the, maybe just the tests which are held onto iran, where single goose was silenced by the state

fact that i was able to make a film with a person whose father's nature really since childhood. and that i was able to knows her need to tell her story. but the story of a people, she says, that's obviously capital for me. i'm something that will always be with me. one second speech on that in my mission big night father introduced her to the stage when she was just 2 years old, who made the lead from child start to international stuff, combining persian lyrics with papa john's is on this walk makes good to special on the one hand, of course it's hot out acting, her singing her music of her incredible presence on stage. and on the other hand, i think it's her incredible biography, the biography she says, with many offices in iran that people try to come down to somebody has to silence her to break hash, but the goose has never given the meals. it's
