Representation
Lina Mack works as a sensitivity reader in a publishing house. She is responsible for spotting stereotypes in texts and signalling any seeming violations of human dignity. In a conference, she informs her audience about the backgrounds of her tricky profession. What begins as a charming discussion about the pitfalls and challenges of editing, problematic authors, and concerning books increasingly develops into a vehement rant. Lina Mack emerges as a stern judge, eager to clean up not just the literary world. At the TNL, the audience witnesses a conference aiming to negotiate lofty individual rights, deciding over word and sentence, truth and lie, and what is 'appropriate' and what 'suits'. The speaker is the Trier actress Barbara Ullmann, also known in Luxembourg. Guy Rewenig reveals in his new text 'Bärenklau' the traps into which current literary-political correctness willingly falls. Censorship has many faces, mostly masked - or worse: it has already been internalized in a form of anticipatory obedience. Rewenig jabs into this feverish fabric with a sharp pen, delightfully, ironically, bitterly.
