Loneliness in the Paulinerkirche: An Evening on the Feeling of Our Time

On October 2, 2026, a topic that affects many and yet often remains unspoken takes center stage at the Paulinerkirche Göttingen: Loneliness. Maike Luhmann, one of the foremost researchers on this phenomenon, speaks as part of the Göttingen Literature Autumn about the causes, consequences, and ways out of social isolation. Together with Berthold Vogel, she opens up the view on a feeling that has long become a societal challenge.

An Evening between Understanding and Immediate Experience

The event combines scientific precision with public debate. In the unique theatrical atmosphere of the Paulinerkirche, no quiet expert discussion unfolds, but a lively stage experience between lecture and dialogue. The historical backdrop enhances the effect: here, contemporary diagnosis meets a space that is itself imbued with history and resonance.

Why This Topic Resonates with So Many People

Loneliness is not a fringe issue. It affects young and old, urban and rural, digital life worlds as well as analog encounters. This is precisely where the dramatic tension of this evening lies: Maike Luhmann explains not only how loneliness arises but also why it persists so stubbornly in society. This makes the event highly relevant and closely connected to the audience.

Paulinerkirche as a Place of Quiet Intensity

The Paulinerkirche in Göttingen provides a framework for this evening of lectures that fosters concentration and openness at the same time. The calm spatial effect, clear acoustics, and cultural density of the place create that theatrical atmosphere in which thoughts resonate. This space unfolds special power, especially for discussions about social connectedness and isolation.

Context and Relevance

Maike Luhmann has been researching loneliness for many years and is considered an important voice in the scientific engagement with the topic. The event gains authority and depth from this: it promises no easy solutions, but well-founded insights, clever perspectives, and a conversation that resonates far beyond the evening.

Conclusion

Those interested in social issues, scientifically grounded lectures, and intense cultural moments will experience an evening with substance here. Loneliness in the Paulinerkirche is an event for everyone who wants to listen, think, and experience a central question of our time live. Secure your tickets in time and be part of it.
