Historical literature workshop
With Birgit Heitfeld on her novel Valdiviana
Valdiviana von Birgit Heitfeld, Collage aus Elementen des Buchcovers, Gestaltung des Covers: Coco Meurer, Literaturensohn

Brandenburg 1850: A pharmacist and politician sets off for Chile. After democracy had been on the advance in Germany and ultimately failed, Heinrich Quandter finds himself increasingly exposed to harassment from reactionary forces. He meets the colonization agent Felix Wildermuth - the start of a new life begins.
Author Birgit Heitfeld reads from her novel "Valdiviana oder Wo der Teufel seinen Poncho verlor" (published by BoD). In the discussion with Johann Gerlieb (research associate, forum 1848), bridges will be built between historical fiction and actual historiography. What true events lie behind the story and the figure of Heinrich Quandter? And where does historical fiction reach its limits?
In an authentic setting and with musical accompaniment from Philip Andronic's jazz trio, we invite you to be transported to Berlin and Chile in the mid-19th century.Translated with DeepL
