The trolleybus belongs to Salzburg, just like the \u201cSalzburger Nockerl\u201d or the Schn\u00fcrl-Regen. Lea Sauer and \u00d6zlem \u00d6zg\u00fcl D\u00fcndar invite you on a literary city tour with the trolleybus from Mozartplatz via Lehen to the Andr\u00e4viertel as part of the Salzburg SPEZIAL literature festival. The focus is on a term that has recently been used by some politicians to describe themselves adequately: The flexing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sauer and D\u00fcndar do not, however, take their texts into the lowlands of day-to-day politics, but rather explore the city itself with them, through which one moves every day. Shifts in perspectives on the everydays life included. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Instead of retreating into the culture quarantine, the Salzburg Literature Festival takes the opposite path and goes out into the city with a series of programmes. The \u201cLiteraturfest Salzburg SPEZIAL\u201d will only take place this year. Josef Kirchner and Robert Prosser, took over the management of the Literaturfest Salzburg last year. \u201cWe see it as our task to inspire a new audience for literature and we will also take unusual paths to achieve this,\u201d say Kirchner and Prosser. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Paths that can be explored not only by trolleybus but also on a walk: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anyone who prefers to walk rather than take a bus can also participate in the \u201cLiterat(o)ur\u201d city walk. Kay-Michael Dankl has devised a literary trail through the lanes of Salzburg\u2019s old town. Be it Thomas Bernhard or Birgit Birnbacher: the texts of numerous writers are \u201cinscribed\u201d in the squares and lanes of Salzburg. But the participants in this \u201cliterate(o)ur\u201d also become authors themselves. Entertaining writing experiments included. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Arthur Zgubic and Ingo Wenzinger from \u201cohnetitel – Network for Theatre and Art Projects\u201d invite you to take part in a tour named \u201cThe fine art of strolling for the untrained & advanced\u201d. The question they raise is: Is everybody even capable to stroll without previous experience? Is strolling rather a way of moving or a state of mind? The figure of the \u201cstroller\u201d appeared in France in the 19th century and found its blueprint in the English \u201cdandy\u201d. Both have left numerous traces in litera- ture, which Zgubic and Wenzinger take as a starting point for their literary exercise tour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Literary festivals therefore do not only consist of readings. But of course, this edition of the Literaturfest Salzburg SPEZIAL also includes them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Guests are, among others: Mercedes Spannagel, Helena Adler, Nava Ebrahimi or Steffen Kopetzky. All the way to KlitClique: Austria\u2019s most danger- ous rap duo of all times, who have sucessfully destroyed numerous freestyle battles and never rebuilt them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
