Series

DAAD Symposium on Young German Literature

Description

Moritz Rinke, born in 1967 in Worpswerde, is one of the best‐known German playwrights. While studying Applied Theatre in Gießen, he began writing for the Süddeutsche Zeitung, the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Die Zeit and Theater heute. From 1994 to 1996 he was a trainee and then journalist for the Berliner Tagesspiegel. For his reporting on “A Day with Marlene” (1995) and the 1997 Love Parade he twice received the prestigious Axel‐Springer‐Prize. In 2001 his play “The Vineta Republic“ was chosen as best German‐language play. In 2010 his first novel was published: “Der Mann, der durch das Jahrhundert fiel.“
