bodytext =>protected'<p>As part of the annual commemoration of the Salzburg book burning of 1938
the Initiative Freies Wort organized an event in 2025 that sets the fokus on
: Hope.<br /> The public event will take place at the Alte Residenz, startin
g at 6:30 PM, featuring a moderated panel discussion on the theme of hope. I
nvited guests include a theologian, a philosopher, an artist, and two musici
ans. The discussion will critically examine the role of hope in social and p
olitical upheavals.<br /> Following the discussion, a speech at the memorial
for the book burning will be held, accompanied by music and a specially com
posed carillon performance.<br /> The book burnings in Nazi Germany from 193
3 onward, as well as the Salzburg book burning of 1938 following Austria’s
annexation, symbolized the destruction of free cultural and intellectual li
fe. The Nazi regime propagandized these acts as the beginning of a so-called
modernized era, aiming to erase the "old system." However, under the banner
of a racially defined, "purified" national identity, hopes for a better lif
e were exploited and misdirected.<br /> This event will explore how false ho
pes, which led to destruction and manipulation in the past, can be addressed
today. It will also highlight the human dimensions of hope, which—even in
times of crisis—serve as a source of guidance and confidence and hold the
power to shape a positive vision for the future.</p>

As part of the annual commemoration of the Salzburg book burning of 1938 the Initiative Freies Wort organized an event in 2025 that sets the fokus on: Hope.
The public event will take place at the Alte Residenz, starting at 6:30 PM, featuring a moderated panel discussion on the theme of hope. Invited guests include a theologian, a philosopher, an artist, and two musicians. The discussion will critically examine the role of hope in social and political upheavals.
Following the discussion, a speech at the memorial for the book burning will be held, accompanied by music and a specially composed carillon performance.
The book burnings in Nazi Germany from 1933 onward, as well as the Salzburg book burning of 1938 following Austria’s annexation, symbolized the destruction of free cultural and intellectual life. The Nazi regime propagandized these acts as the beginning of a so-called modernized era, aiming to erase the "old system." However, under the banner of a racially defined, "purified" national identity, hopes for a better life were exploited and misdirected.
This event will explore how false hopes, which led to destruction and manipulation in the past, can be addressed today. It will also highlight the human dimensions of hope, which—even in times of crisis—serve as a source of guidance and confidence and hold the power to shape a positive vision for the future.
Panel discussion in Rittersaal of the Alte Residenz with
Karl-Markus Gauß, author
Regina Polak, theologian and Heinrich Schmidinger, philosopher
Moderation: Stefanie Jaksch
Music: Mona Akinola and Mario El Fakih Hernández
After the event, all those interested will, as always, walk across Residenzplatz to the book skeleton memorial, where the actress Christiane Warnecke will read texts by Stefan Zweig on the subject of HOPE at around 8.45 pm. The specially programmed chimes will then be recorded by the musicians.
