A literary walk through the nuances of love
With From Head to Toe on Love... and so on – From Cheering and Mourning in Matters of Love, the Raabe-Haus:Literaturzentrum Braunschweig invites you on a poetic journey that does not smooth out feelings of love but makes them audible in all their ambivalence. The musical-lyrical walk takes you through the cloister garden of Riddagshausen and connects literature, language, and sound into an intense literary experience.
When love finds its voice
The evening relies on that special reading atmosphere, where not just texts but also moods speak. The event focuses on both cheering and mourning, precisely that range that has shaped good love poetry and wise prose texts for centuries. Those interested in literary quality, linguistic nuances, and cultural contextualization will find here a finely composed author encounter with texts, music, and reflection.
Riddagshausen as a stage for literature and mood
The cloister garden provides the atmospheric setting for this walk. Historic architecture, open paths, and the quiet expanse of the place give the event a special sensuality. This connection between natural space, cultural venue, and literature is what makes it appealing: The texts do not compete with the surroundings but respond to them. Thus, an evening is created that feels both contemplative and alive.
Between romance, irony, and literary sensibility
The title plays with a familiar emotional universe but does not remain in the romantic gesture. Instead of mere infatuation, the format promises a thoughtful approach to matters of love, as literature has continually re-negotiated: desirous, doubting, humorous, vulnerable, and surprisingly modern. This is precisely the strength of the program for readers who want to experience literature not just as consumers but in cultural discourse.
Practical information for visitors
The event starts on September 16, 2026, at 6:00 PM and ends at 6:30 PM. According to the program, participation is free.

Conclusion: This literary-musical walk connects love texts, cultural history, and atmospheric places into an evening that resonates. Anyone wanting to experience language, music, and literature in a special setting should discover this free event in Riddagshausen live.
