Throughout the month of September, the Max Kade Center for German Studies will host an exhibit on the Austrian writer Ingeborg Bachmann entitled Writing Against War.

The exhibit coincides with the Class of 2014 summer orientation theme,Waging War; Staging Peace.

Three experts will discuss Bachmann’s work, and Dean Stewart-Gambino will comment on its connection to the orientation theme and summer reading assignment, Pat Barker’s Regeneration.
