Die Erziehung der Hirse - A poem grows out of school

As part of the workshop “Brecht and the Millet: A Poem Under the Microscope,” two Berlin school classes analyzed Bertolt Brecht’s poem The Education of the Millet and then had the opportunity to engage in conversation with various experts. Based on the questions and ideas the students presented to the experts, Julia Diekämper and Carolin Glahe created a comic that explores the poem’s connections to agricultural science, biology, the history of science, politics, and literature.

Illustriert wurde der Comic von Barbara Ott und er ist nun sowohl als PDF online, als auch in gedruckter Form zu erhalten. Bei Interesse an einem gedruckten Exemplar schreibt uns an netzwerknaturwissen@mfn.berlin.
