Whether Goethe writes "Above all summits is peace," whether Rilke evokes the "tense silence" in the limbs of his famous panther, or whether later Celan seeks salvation from unbearable speeches that only drown out the horrors of the Holocaust in the "laryngeal closure sound" – "silence" is everywhere in literature. At the same time, the recurring talk of a literary "tone," a literary "voice" indicates that without any sound, no poem, no story, no novel, and certainly no drama could be created. In our zwischen/ding, we deal with the volume of texts. As an introduction, we will look at selected examples from literature, then we will try our own writing attempts, where we want to experiment with both louder and softer texts of our own. Important, also in view of societal debates, and thus especially softer tones, which often deserve to be heard better.
