DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Lecture by Dr. Bernd Schattinger at the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern State=0D=0ALibrary=0D=0A=0D=0ATo mark the 150th anniversary of his death, the State Library is=0D=0Ahonoring the writer and democrat Adolf Glaßbrenner (1810–1876). Dr.=0D=0ABernd Schattinger, a specialist librarian from Schwerin, will take the=0D=0Aaudience on a journey through Mecklenburg-Strelitz from 1840 to 1850=0D=0Ain a richly illustrated lecture.=0D=0A=0D=0AThe poet and satirist, known for his literary characters the=0D=0A“Guckkästner,” the street corner figure Nante, and the pensioner=0D=0ABuffey, wrote the poetry collection *Verbotene Lieder* (1844) and the=0D=0Aanimal epic “Neuer Reineke Fuchs” (1846) during his “exile” in=0D=0AStrelitz. Both, like almost all of his works, were immediately banned=0D=0Athroughout Germany. As the “Zille of the Word,” Glaßbrenner=0D=0Askillfully used his sharp pen to criticize, above all, the monarchy,=0D=0Aaristocratic rule, the military, and bureaucratic administration. A=0D=0Arecently discovered manuscript of a speech delivered in 1847 at the=0D=0ANeustrelitz Trade Association casts Glaßbrenner in a new light. As a=0D=0Aboard member of the Neustrelitz Reform Association, he was among the=0D=0Apolitical reformers who advocated for civil liberties, a parliamentary=0D=0Ademocracy, and the unity of Germany. As a result of his political=0D=0Aactivities—particularly as a speaker at public=0D=0Aassemblies—Glaßbrenner was expelled from the Grand Duchy of=0D=0AMecklenburg-Strelitz in 1850.=0D=0A=0D=0ABernd Schattinger has published these new findings on=0D=0AGlaßbrenner—and thus on the history of democracy in=0D=0AMecklenburg-Strelitz—in the Neubrandenburg Regional Museum’s=0D=0Apublication series (No. 63). On September 23, 2026, he will speak at=0D=0A7:00 p.m. at the State Library. Admission to the lecture is free. No=0D=0Aadvance registration is required.=0D=0A=0D=0A =0D=0A=0D=0AThe Günther Uecker State Library of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern traces its=0D=0Aorigins to the Ducal Government Library, founded in 1779, and, as a=0D=0Acritical infrastructure, preserves significant historical collections=0D=0Aas well as a large collection of works from and about=0D=0AMecklenburg-Vorpommern.
