'Sternstunden der Menschheit' - a piece of world literature seen anew. In his bestseller 'Sternstunden der Menschheit', Stefan Zweig gathers fourteen significant, fateful moments in human history: from the Battle of Waterloo to the creation of Goethe's famous Marienbad Elegy, and the tragic South Pole expedition of Sir Robert Falcon Scott. Now, the book artist Jörg Hülsmann has visually designed, illustrated, and interpreted these fourteen miniatures. His illustrations not only shed new light on a well-known piece of world literature but also create a unique work of art in conjunction with the text.
