The Goethe Institut

 

Speaker : Angela Jeannette

reviewer : Chanmi Moon

Proofreader : Jeremy Azurin

Date : Feb. 22nd, 2014

 

This talk was delivered by Director Angela Jeannette, with a topic of "the Goethe Institut". The speaker mainly introduced the Goethe Institut, the German cultural institution that has built a worldwide network opened in Gwangju. Her talk was very well organized and the visual aids she used attracted the audiences. She not only introduced the institute but further explained about the relationship between Korea and Germany by playing a short video. It was surprising that Germany had helped Korea so much in terms of finances, human resources, and many other ways since the Korean War. It was even more surprising that Germans played a great role on publicizing the Gwangju Uprising and on recovery as well. At the end, there was a short German lesson which made the talk even more interesting and entertaining.
