With the municipal buildings of “Red Vienna,” the utopia of enabling weaker individuals in society to also have a good life was realised. Originally erected in the 1920s to provide affordable living space for the working class as well as urban infrastructure, communal ownership of housing also makes it possible today to integrate people who would otherwise have limited opportunities in neoliberal society. The relevance of municipal ownership to the current situation consists as well of the possibility to exert an attenuating influence on real estate speculation and rising rents. With her camera, Gisela Erlacher (*1956) follows the parcourse through the archways of superblocks such as the Sandleiten-Hof, Goethe-Hof, and Karl-Marx-Hof. She portrays residents and visitors in all their diversity and gives them space to present themselves beyond stereotyped depictions. Text in English and German.

Following the German attack on the Soviet Union in 1941, the German-Soviet non-aggression pact was officially broken.After initial successes, it quickly became clear that the enemy could not be defeated that easily, as the unknown terrain and extreme weather conditions continued to exacerbate the problems.Lieutenant Hohberg, who had previously fought in the French campaign, had been sent to the East after receiving his promotion. Having led his battery several times, he was now waiting in vain for tank support.

'You are the knife I turn inside myself'Franz Kafka's letters to his one-time muse, Milena Jesenska - an intimate window into the desires and hopes of the twentieth-century's most prophetic and important writerKafka first made the acquaintance of Milena Jesenska in 1920 when she was translating his early short prose into Czech. Their relationship quickly developed into a deep attachment. Such was his feeling for her that Kafka showed her his diaries and, in doing so, laid bare his heart and his conscience.While at times Milena's 'genius for living' gave Kafka new life, it ultimately exhausted him, and their relationship was to last little over two years. In 1924 Kafka died in a sanatorium near Vienna, and Milena died in 1944 at the hands of the Nazis, leaving these letters as a moving record of their relationship.

La metamorfosi narra la història de Gregor Samsa, un viatjant de comerç que un matí es desperta, a la casa paterna, transformat en un insecte monstruós. Més enllà d'aquesta espantosa metamorfosi, el text de Kafka ha esdevingut un dels títols fonamentals per entendre la soledat i l'aïllament que l'autor sempre va necessitar per escriure. El laberint misteriós per on es perdia Kafka és potser el mateix laberint de l'home modern; això explicaria la vigència de la seva obra.

El título (Zweistromland: El país de los dos ríos), con el que se refiere a Mesopotamia, representaba para Rosenzweig el modo en que comprendió su vida y su filosofía: partió siempre de diversas fuentes y su pensamiento fluyó en diferentes direcciones. Se trata de un pensamiento que tiende puentes siempre entre dos orillas distantes, mostrando que la autenticidad no está reñida con el diálogo. ...La filosofía de Rosenzweig se caracteriza por señalar los límites de los sistemas tradicionales, basados en la idea de totalidad e inteligibilidad. En los textos que aquí se traducen, encontramos tres nociones que desbordan la idea de una totalidad clausurada. Nos referimos a la eternidad (que irrumpe en el tiempo), el pueblo judío (que se sitúa más allá de la historia) y el ser humano, que no cabe en la idea de un sistema cerrado.(Olga Belmonte)
