Randbemerkungen zur Osterwoche 2026: Texte, Beobachtungen und Erinnerungen

The blog contribution “Randbemerkungen zur Osterwoche 2026” in paysages interweaves personal reflections, cultural observations, and political commentary during Easter Week in Grünstadt, Germany. The text centers on an ecumenical resurrection service, the reading of Simone Morgenthaler’s Cœur qui bat, and the growing absence of French literature in German libraries, underscoring a widening Franco-German cultural divide. It also engages with global events such as Hungary’s political transition, the Artemis-2 moon mission, and the papacy of Leo XIV—whose poignant journey to Annaba, Algeria, resonates with the author’s own experiences in West Africa and symbolizes a bridge between faith and a fractured world.
