Our culture is dominated by sight. The eyes are considered particularly important among our senses. We want to look at things in the light, see as clearly as possible, not be cave dwellers who allow themselves to be deceived. When we form an image of something, we see the world as a counterpart, we see it as an object. Hearing is completely different. Those who listen are already in the middle of it. Seeing is observing, hearing is immersing. Our ears give us a different approach to the world and to our fellow human beings. Those who can listen well focus their attention not only on what is, but also on what is yet to come. What is the art of listening? How can understanding succeed between people who are very different? With Giovanni Maio (philosopher, University of Freiburg) Moderator: Jürgen Wiebicke
