Kurt-Tucholsky-Preis

Kurt-Tucholsky-Preis is a literary prize of Germany. The prize amount is currently €5,000.[1]

The prize, for "committed and succinct literary works"[lower-alpha 1] was first awarded in 1995, and thereafter annually till 1997, since when it has been awarded every two years. It is targeted on short form works including Essays, Satire, Song, Treatises and Pamphlets. Texts should "verify reality, disclose backgrounds and help the reader towards a critical evaluation".[lower-alpha 2]

The prize was originally awarded by the Kurt Tucholsky Foundation to mark the sixtieth anniversary of Kurt Tucholsky's death. Since 2003 the Kurt-Tucholsky-Gesellschaft (Kurt-Tucholsky-Society) has been awarding the prize.[2] The Foundation remains closely involved with the administration of the prize, but after the copyright on Tucholsky's writings lapsed it was no longer able to fund the prize.

  2. ..."im Sinne Tucholskys der Realitätsprüfung dienen, Hintergründe aufdecken und dem Leser bei einer kritischen Urteilsfindung helfen"
gollark: the trait bound `impl core::future::future::Future: warp::reply::Reply` is not satisfiedthe trait `warp::reply::Reply` is not implemented for `impl core::future::future::Future`note: required because of the requirements on the impl of `warp::reply::Reply` for `(impl core::future::future::Future,)`note: required because of the requirements on the impl of `warp::reply::Reply` for `warp::generic::Either<(impl core::future::future::Future,), (impl warp::reply::Reply,)>`note: required because of the requirements on the impl of `warp::reply::Reply` for `(warp::generic::Either<(impl core::future::future::Future,), (impl warp::reply::Reply,)>,)`note: required because of the requirements on the impl of `warp::reply::Reply` for `warp::generic::Either<(warp::filters::fs::File,), (warp::generic::Either<(impl core::future::future::Future,), (impl warp::reply::Reply,)>,)>`note: required because of the requirements on the impl of `warp::reply::Reply` for `(warp::generic::Either<(warp::filters::fs::File,), (warp::generic::Either<(impl core::future::future::Future,), (impl warp::reply::Reply,)>,)>,)`
gollark: If I change one line in my Rust code I can make it generate extremely incomprehensible type errors fairly easily.
gollark: Generally it would just randomly not compile with some incomprehensible type error.
gollark: That is quite something. Rust wouldn't have this issue, of course.
gollark: It's not unnecessary, just mostly unnecessary.
