"Scardanelli’s Tower, Out of Season..." is part of the Baden-Württemberg Literature Summer and, on the occasion of the 250th birthdays of Friedrich Hölderlin and Friedrich Hegel, takes an interdisciplinary approach to Hölderlin’s artistic biography. The project integrates (with the thematic sensitivity to psychosocial processes and contexts proven in the Prinzhorn project) extremes, including "eccentricity" (Hölderlin, according to Alexander Honold), found in some modern settings of Hölderlin and Hegel’s works.
