Poetry Calendar 2025

The 41st edition of the C.H. Beck Poetry Calendar (whose former title "Little Brother" is still well-known) looks similar to previous editions and is created according to the same concept: it contains 24 poems from German literature, spanning from the Middle Ages to the present day.

Each poem is accompanied by its own harmonious graphic. With 14 days dedicated to each poem, there is ample time for repeated viewing, reading, and immersion. A poem may belong to high literature or be a simple song; it can be classic or modern, rhymed or completely free, serious or playful; it may be accessible to every child or provoke deeper contemplation – regardless, it must be a good poem. And it should evoke something: comfort, cheerfulness, critical awareness, laughter, or tears. Not every poem resonates with all readers, but each one will touch many. Thus, may the calendar accompany us throughout the year 2025.

Included Poems:

Angelus Silius (1624-1677): Without Why;

Christian Morgenstern (1871-1914): Conversation of a House Snail with Itself;

Kurt Tucholsky (1890-1935): To the Baby;

Dorothee Sölle (1929-2003): Playing Pool You Show Me;

Joseph von Eichendorff (1788-1857): Twilight;

Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179): O Noble Green;

Paul Celan (1920-1970): Aspen Tree;

Bertolt Brecht (1898-1956): The Song of the Moldau;

Helga M. Novak (1935-2013): I Confess to the Flowing Waters;
