RAGE (WUT)
by Elfriede Jelinek
The attack on the editorial team of the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo and a Jewish supermarket in January 2015 in Paris caused Elfriede Jelinek to go in search of the reasons behind these kinds of destructive rage. Faced with a world in which anger seems to dominate everything and the dialogue between people has come to an end, she throws up the most troubling questions: "But if a whole community discovers killing, even the women – what next?"
Jelinek’s findings follow Greek myths like the raging Hercules, draw attention to the Iliad, whose central theme was anger, but also let the voices of jihadists, enlightened Europeans, enraged citizens and the playwright herself be heard. These elements brew to create a thunderstorm of rage: at gods, worldviews, Kalashnikovs and the production and consumption of the conflicts going on in today's dismal world.
When did it all begin? Who is the right god? Do we need one?
