World of Languages: Translating as Art – Experience it Up Close at the Literature Archive
A literary experience for the mind and senses: The special exhibition 'World of Languages. Translating Literature' shows how new voices emerge from originals. Between display case lighting and a quiet reading atmosphere, the poetics of translation unfolds – approachable, sonorous, inspiring.
Poetics of Translation: Sound, Rhythm, Meaning
With a fine sense, the exhibition guides through working processes between manuscript, editing, and publishing. Language art meets craftsmanship: Metrics, idioms, and tone become aesthetic decisions that shape the narrative and open the text space anew.
Archives of Contemporary Literature: Estates as Spaces of Knowledge
Pre- and post-estates shape the reading behind glass. Manuscripts, correspondence, and listening stations shed light on the literary quality of translations and anchor them in the cultural discourse after 1945.
Bridges Between Languages: Cultural Transfer and Market
Curatorial thematic rooms question which works are translated – and why. They show how publishers, selection processes, and debates transform international literature into our reading.
Conclusion
Expect a concentrated, intimate encounter with the voices behind the books: Typography, paper, voices, and silence make translation experienceable. Perfect for readers who want to discover style, genre, and language art with awakened senses.
