A woman living in devastated post-war Berlin writes to her Jewish childhood friend, who emigrated to Paris during the Nazi era, and writes an unsparing self-interrogation of a German about guilt and responsibility. In this almost lost work, Susanne Kerckhoff also describes everyday life in the ruins of Berlin in direct and touching observations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif, serif;\">Published in 1948 in the midst of the Nuremberg Trials, the \u2018\u2019Berliner Briefe\u2018\u2019 address the issues of followership, repression and the Germans&#8217; defence against guilt for the crimes. Kerckhoff asks about the necessary intellectual reorientation in the light of fundamental humanitarian issues and their conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Liberation Serif, serif;\">Inspired by a reading and historical context, the epistolary novel becomes the starting point for 10 artists to question history in the prism of the present from their biographical perspectives. With a view to their artistic working and living environments, they illuminate Kerckhoff&#8217;s poetic and ethical position.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-family: Liberation
