Schiller’s Wallenstein collides with the present: a programme book like a battlefield. Between collage and research, between Schiller’s pathos and voices from Ukraine, it unfolds a polyphonic echo of war, power, and memory. Texts by Friedrich Schiller, Svetlana Alexievich, and many others clash with Armin Smailovic’s photographs, documents, and essays. Published to accompany Jan-Christoph Gockels Wallenstein. A Feast in Seven Courses at the Münchner Kammerspiele, this is not a supplement but a reader – a raw mix of literature, politics, and history that makes clear: war does not end, it feeds on itself.
