 <\/p>\n

Through his masterwork The World of Yesterday<\/em>, Austrian writer Stefan Zweig (1881-1942), a visionary and one of the first to identify as ‚European‘, bequeathed to us the manifesto of a dream of the peaceful unification of different cultures. It was he who inspired us this year to undertake a contemporary literature project, a collection of texts by European, Israeli and Palestinian authors on the subject of ‚A World of Tomorrow‘.<\/p>\n

On November 28th, it was time to say: Happy Birthday Mr. Zweig!\u00a0Stefan Zweig was one of the world\u2019s most famous and introspective writers. We celebrated his birthday in an eight-hour online event with participants from\u00a0Addis Ababa, Berlin, Jerusalem, Hohenems, London, Paris, Ramallah, Tel Aviv, Vienna and Zurich. The event included dramatic readings of his texts, \u00a0recitations of selected texts and reflections\u00a0by writers that were inspired by Zweig, as well as musical performances. .<\/p>\n

Where could have been a better place to celebrate Stefan Zweig than in his favorite place \u2013 a caf\u00e9? Due to the Corona guidelines, the only chance to open our caf\u00e9 was to do it online. We were overwhelmed by the fact that so many guests from different countries and continents joined us, some staying with us for the whole time, from 2pm to 10.30pm. We chose the title \u201cCaf\u00e9 Europe\u201d not only because Zweig was considered one of the \u201cfirst Europeans\u201d: In the early 1960\u2019s there was once a legendary Caf\u00e9 Europe in Al Zahra street in East Jerusalem, a cosmopolitan meeting place where people would meet at ‚tea time‘, debate, read the news, hear live music, dance or listen to a storyteller. On the Israeli side too there was once a Caf\u00e9 Europa that served in the 1920s and 1930s as a social and cultural meeting place for people of different backgrounds. It was situated on Kikar Zion which, to this today, is a bustling square in the center of West Jerusalem. Hence, this project was an attempt at a new, literary ‚Caf\u00e9 Europa‘ \u2013 a meeting place, an intellectual point of contact, a place of longing to which the words of our authors lead us.<\/p>\n

We would like to thank all our online guests from near and far for their presence and curiosity, and to our wonderful actors, directors, musicians and writers who brought the spirit of Stefan Zweig to our Caf\u00e9 Europe: Marwan Abado, Alex Ansky, Terhas Berhe, Guy Bracca, Timna Brauer, Avraham Burg, Joanna Castelli, Anna Goldenberg, Iman Hirbawi, Chris Laurence, Hanno Loewy, Rita Manning, Dimitrina Milenova, Hagar Mizrachi Dudinski, Peter M\u00fcnch, Christian Manuel Oliveira, Mohammad Qutati, Julya Rabinowich, Doron Rabinovici, Nadine Sayegh, Michael Schiemer, Emmanuel Strosser and Sergio Wagner. Many thanks also to those who helped realizing this immense international project on a rather short notice: Mona Aipperspach, Ahmad Bakri, Christiane Boesiger, Markus Bugnyar, Andr\u00e9 Cazalet, Jonas Lamprecht, Olivier Tambosi, Astrid Wein, and the Austrian Cultural Forum Tel Aviv and the Jewish Museum Hohenems, as well as the inspirational locations of Caf\u00e9 Mano Berlin, Caf\u00e9 Triest Jerusalem, Garage Coffee Bar Ramallah, Caf\u00e9 Korb Vienna and the Grand Caf\u00e9 Odeon Zurich.<\/p>\n
