Ex-Prime Minister Berndt Seite unveils latest publication
Former Minister President Berndt Seite to Present New Book "zeitengewendet"
Berndt Seite, a renowned figure in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern's political history, will present his latest publication, "zeitengewendet," on August 23rd at 2 PM in Nossentin. This event will take place in the art and cinema church of Nossentin.
Born in 1940 in Silesia, now part of Poland, Seite came to East Germany as a refugee in 1945. He attended school in Schulpforte, Saxony-Anhalt, and later pursued studies to become a veterinarian in Mecklenburg's Walow near Röbel.
Seite's political career began with the peaceful revolution of 1989/90, and he served as Minister President from 1992 to 1998. During this time, he was a member of the state parliament until 2002. However, in 1998, he lost the election to Harald Ringstorff (SPD), who has since passed away.
"zeitengewendet," published by Weimar Bertuch-Verlag, is a collection of short stories and poetry. The book includes pieces such as "The Stone," "The Herald," "The 9th of November," and "1950." Seite does not shy away from natural observations and parallels in his writing, as seen in his earlier works.
The author invites readers to reflect on current positions through his publication. One of the short verses in the book reads: "Democracy is seen as a bold attempt to clip the wings of the people, their enemy." The book, approximately 120 pages long, aims to present a world where past, present, and future all have their place.
After the reading, there will be an invitation to "Protestant Schmalzbroten, Catholic communion wine, and Muslim water." Seite has published more than 20 books, making "zeitengewendet" another significant addition to his literary works.
