Kosmos – Ordnung und Zerstörung. Die Genesis als antike Weltliteratur

In the organizer's words:

Panel discussion with Professor Hans-Ulrich Weidemann, biblical scholar at the University of Siegen, and Andreas Hutzel and Steffen Kubach from the Lübeck Theater ensemble.

When people in antiquity referred to their world as the cosmos, they were formulating a certain view, a certain perspective, but above all the most important aspect for them, namely "world as cosmos", i.e. as an ordered, structured and decorated living world. The Greek word cosmos not only means world, universe and space, but also arrangement, order, institution, constitution, but also decoration, adornment and even decorum, ceremonial.
