Jedes Gebäude besitzt seine eigene Geschichte : Hermannstadt als literarischer Raum in Erzählungen Joachim Wittstocks

  • The following study is dedicated to the city of Sibiu as the literary place in the short story “The Blue Sphere” [Die blaue Kugel] by Joachim Wittstock. Starting from the selection of historical monuments and buildings evoking important personalities of the Transylvanian Saxons, Joachim Wittstock recalls cultural and historical aspects of the Saxons who have left their mark on the present.
