“No land of vines, but a land of heroes” is how Westphalia was described more than 500 years ago by the Cologne Carthusian monk Werner Rolevinck in his “Book in Praise of Westphalia.” Literary scholar Walter Gödden and actor Carsten Bender have chosen this quote as the title for their dialogical reading, which explores images of Westphalia in literature, ranging from Rolevinck to Voltaire, Hölderlin, Goethe, or Annette von Droste-Hülshoff, all the way to the immediate present, including Fritz Eckenga.
