In the Footsteps of German Culture & Identity
A Plea between Kant and Potato Soup
"In the Footsteps of German Culture & Identity - A Plea Between Kant and Potato Soup" is a book that takes the reader on a journey through the different facets of German culture. I would like to share my personal observations, experiences and reflections on the cultural diversity of Germany and recommend it to my readers.
In this book, I explore the roots of German culture with you and discover the importance of the German language for Germany and the world to which we are also connected through it. I go in search of German art and our inventions and developments. I immerse myself in the culinary delights of German cuisine and learn more about the traditions and customs that are still cultivated in Germany today. The rich musical culture is also highlighted, from minstrelsy to modern music genres.
I provide insights into the world of German art and architecture and learn with you more about the important history of Germany, which has shaped the country and its people. The German holidays and festivals are also looked at to give you an understanding of the cultural celebrations.
Now I invite you to immerse yourself in the world of German culture with me. Get ready for a journey full of surprises, discoveries and familiar things. Perhaps at the end of this trip you will look back with a new self-image and a new connection to German culture.
While researching this book, I realized that German culture is a broad and complex field that cannot be captured in a few words. But it is precisely this diversity that makes German culture so unique and exciting.
In this respect, I wrote this book with the awareness that such an attempt is already bound to fail, because the number of cultural facets and the number of historical events and highlights are too large. If I did dare to do so, then it was to awaken my readers' own memories and reflections or to arouse a new, justified interest.
I thank you for accompanying me on this journey and perhaps following my plea between Kant and potato soup,

Über den Autor
Ich bin ein alter weißer Mann. Ich war nicht immer alt, aber ich war immer weiß. Das war keine Wahl, es wurde mir sozusagen in die Wiege gelegt. Es ist also kein Makel und kein Privileg – ES IST. Ich höre die Musik anderer alter weißer Männer von Bach & Beatles bis Zappa & Waits. Ich lese die Bücher anderer alter weißer Männer von Brecht bis Whitman. Und ich liebe die Kunst alter schwarzer Männer & auch Frauen, sowohl in der Musik, als auch in der Literatur.Ich wurde sozialisiert (wie man heutzutage sagt) in einem Land vor dieser Zeit. Ich trat mit 19 Jahren in die SED ein und trat 1986 wieder aus. Ich war in der evangelischen Jugend, verweigerte den Reservedienst, verlor meinen Job, machte Gelegenheitsjobs für die evangelische Kirche, wurde unregelmäßig von zwei Herren im Trenchcoat besucht. Die üblichen Spielereien der Macht. Also nichts was nicht Hunderte / Tausende andere genauso oder schlimmer erlebt hätten. Ich war nicht der Typ, der mit gesenktem Kopf und erhobener Faust durch die Gegend lief. Ich nahm die „Bonzen“ einfach nur beim Wort. Das genügte um sie vorzuführen und sich bei ihnen unbeliebt zu machen.
Als alle Weltrevolutionen für uns obsolet geworden waren, zerteilte sich die Gruppe von damals. Gelegentlich trifft man den Einen oder Anderen. Ein kurzes:”Weißt du noch?” und man geht wieder seines Weges. Viele zogen in den “Westen” zur Arbeit. Andere arbeiten noch heute an der Aufarbeitung jener Zeit, wieder andere starteten eine, zu jener Zeit undenkbare Karriere, und manche haben einfach nur Familien, Kinder und kleine Firmen gegründet. Das richtige Leben halt.
