A WINTER Eve - with a view to the history of migration, the well-known poem by Georg Trakl will be re-read. The relationship between poetry and religion, poetry and faith will be presented in an exemplary manner, as it is characteristic for Georg Trakl, who died at an early age, but at the same time reaches far beyond the personal. Already in Trakl’s poetry before the First World War, it becomes apparent, as if through a burning glass, to what extent ’Classical Modernism’ poetry is out of deep 'lack of language', radicalized by the political catastrophes and organized inhumanity of the 20th century (cf. Paul Celan). Do - until today and in future - religious faith and theology have a part in this 'language shortage'? Is it again intensified and made permanent by neo-nationalism and right-wing populism at the beginning of the 21st century? In addition, Vf. continues theological and poetological reflections that he began in 2015 in his book '’The Most Growing, the One Who Will Be’ - Rilke’s Religious Poetry on the Edge of Christianity'. This book has been translated with Artificial Intelligence.
