Both Poland and the Czech Republic boast vibrant literary scenes that are not always well known in Germany. Aneta Bučková is a lecturer in Czech language and literature who teaches at the universities of Jena and Erfurt as part of a program run by the Czech Ministry of Education. Ewa Krauß is a literary scholar, translator, and coordinator at the Aleksander Brückner Center for Polish Studies at the universities of Jena and Halle. We are united by our interest in literature and cultural life, which we follow closely. We’d like to introduce you to a sample of our languages in an entertaining way and look forward to an exchange of ideas.
