In the winter of 1939-40, Georg Hermann worked in exile in Hilversum in the Netherlands on a novel that he himself considered to be one of his most important. Entitled ‘Die daheim blieben’, it was intended to tell the story of a large and widely ramified German-Jewish family in Berlin during the first half of the Third Reich in four parts. He did not manage to complete or publish the novel, and the manuscript was long considered lost. Recently, however, the first two parts of the novel were discovered in the papers of Hermann's grandson George Rothschild. After careful editing by Godela Weiss-Sussex, the text was finally published for the first time in September 2023 by Wallstein Verlag (Göttingen). In her lecture, Godela Weiss-Sussex, Professor of Modern German Literature at the Institute of Languages, Cultures and Societies (University of London), will discuss the history of the manuscript and its path to publication and present the novel's content, characters and contexts. The lecture will give an impression of an extraordinary text, which the author himself described as ‘the very best Georg Hermann’. Jochen Hung is associate professor of cultural history at the University of Utrecht. He has published on gender relations in interwar culture, German-Jewish press history and youth culture in the Weimar Republic. His book Moderate Modernity. The Newspaper Tempo and the Transformation of Weimar Democracy was published in 2023.

It was late to get out of the hotel, and the cruise ships on the river had almost returned to their original position. The river was not happy, the sunset was shining on the river, and the river was full of sparkling light, quiet and peaceful.

幸福的一个小太阳

Tickets for the Van Gogh Museum have been very popular, especially when the domestic May Day holiday meets the King&#39;s Day holiday in the Netherlands, and decisively set the ticket + voice guide half a month in advance in Trip.com . This holiday is sunny and beautiful! Walking along the canal, full of joy, there was almost no queue after arriving at the museum! I took the guided voice machine at the front desk, there are many languages, and I chose Chinese. After spending 3 serious visits to the exhibition, the cultural and creative products of the gift shop are also people who can&#39;t move. A great value trip experience!

Buying tickets on the official website but the payment was unsuccessful, so it is really convenient to come to Trip.com and the price is almost the same as the official website. I have bought it many times in Trip.com Sometimes there are no times on the official website where I want to go. You can come to Trip.com to see it. Very good.

The canal water system in the Netherlands is very developed. Along the canal, you can learn about the sights and history of the Netherlands. Every location has headphones to introduce the attractions. There are Chinese options. The captain will add some additional knowledge. It is a great trip.
