Vorweihnachtliche Lesung an der UB Graz

Weihnachtliche Stimmung an der UB Graz: Am Nachmittag startete "Lest Christmas mit Books4Life" mit einem wohlbekannten Bücherbasar im Foyer der Universitätsbibliothek, ergänzt um den Verkauf von Weihnachtsbäckereien und - bastelein. Als die Hallen der Bibliothek sich langsam leerten, fand die Literatur Einzug in den Hauptlesesaal: Fünf Grazer AutorInnen, darunter Alexandra Kumer, Autorin von "Basilikum mal anders" und Kuno Kosmos, der steirische Poetry Slam Champion, gestalteten einen vorweihnachlichen Abend in musikalischer Umrahmung.

Die Gäste  hörten nicht nur vom Schneeballzüchten, dem Silent Knight und dem anmutigen Tanz der Schneeflocken, sondern wurden auch aufgeklärt, warum das Christkind denn eigentlich Geschenke bringt. Nicht nur im Rahmen von "Lest Christmas" gab es im Books4Life Shop Besonderes zu erstehen; auch in den nächsten Tage gibt es Bäckereien und Basteleien, die sich neben Books4Life Gutscheinen, ausgezeichnet als Weihnachtsgeschenke eignen.

An interdisciplinary team at the University of Graz is questioning these attributions and using this as a starting point to provide food for thought for gender-sensitive interaction between students, scientific and teaching staff.
