Reading Europe anew with Poland and Hungary
This lecture at the vhs Fürth opens the view on two countries whose history is closely connected to the question of self-determination, belonging, and political interpretative power. Simon Moritz guides through a topic that goes far beyond current politics: It is about historical influences, national self-images, and the geopolitical lines along which Central Europe is decipherable today.
Between Tradition and Strategic Reordering
Poland and Hungary share a long European experience of border situations, threats, and upheavals. The lecture shows how differently both states define their role on the continent. Poland appears firmly anchored in the western alliance, while Hungary pursues a more independent course and seeks new partners. It is precisely this tension that lends the evening its political sharpness and intellectual depth.
Europe, Russia, China: the major coordinates
With linguistic precision and political science clarity, Simon Moritz illuminates the relationships of both countries to Europe, Russia, and China. The perspective makes visible how historical memory, power politics, and future issues intertwine. Those who want to understand Central Europe will find no buzzwords here, but rather analytical orientation and a nuanced approach to current developments.
Reading Atmosphere as a Political Education Format
Even without literary fiction, this evening possesses a special reading atmosphere: the focused author encounter with a lecturer who understands political adult education as a vibrant thinking space. The format promises a calm, yet stimulating literary experience in a broader sense – driven by argument, history, and relevance to the present.
Conclusion: An Evening for All Who Want to Understand Europe
On April 27, 2026, the audience in Fürth can expect a compact, well-founded lecture about the political paths of Poland and Hungary in Europe. The event offers orientation, conversation material, and new perspectives on Central Europe. Anyone who appreciates political education with a clear view and cultural-historical depth should experience this evening live.
