comments

- to a report Rudi Berger wood (text) and Ernst Fesseler (Photos)

in the monthly magazine GEO,

issue 3-1987, entitled:

"Carthusians: The alternatives of Marienau"

reports of foreign people and their ways of life are always interesting to outsiders, whether they are now offered on TV or in a photo magazine. Some time ago I received the above account of the life of the Carthusians. This text and picture report of the GEO magazine was really exciting to read and of course there were some good photos to admire.

are already at the first reading, however I noticed some substantial errors in the text. Later, when I go nachlas and thought, I noticed even more. -

But we is not all gone as ever that we, as we read something in the newspaper, what we very well knew about, the newspaper report as inadequate and often incorrect even recognized? will

I was wondering why

-GEO, a report published at all about the Carthusians,

-why the title ("Alternatives") the tensile manner must be

-why were so many errors in the content made

-why the monks were photographed "head"?

And I wonder if all direct quotes in accordance with the truth?

We know the corny joke about the state that only our "Best wishes, namely, our money. When the media is the same. Magazines must be sold, because the only way to earn money. So you need an interesting report, here are a strange form of life: we all need some photos to see on which faces are made to read from that is. And the authors of the GEO report well done. I also asked how well they knew about the lives of these people. Whether trust is not abused? I fully recognize that this report can be never gone through the hands of a Carthusian, before it was printed. Never the Father Prior, as the person responsible, to this text and these pictures have said "yes".

The media today do everything "reveal," I want to say "contains uncover". No secret can give it more. No funds will be spared to achieve this. Certainly, the images will be more interesting! But I say, life the Carthusians is very secluded and simple. By itself can not shoot the monks, at least not for the media. The Prior pays particular attention to "discretion" he has responsibility for all members of his monastery. Especially the young, he will want to protect. Most of them will have left the monastery by now. But whether they want to confront the images and texts of dubious? And so the boys must be protected even more. - But this report can be lacking in knowledge and discretion!
