Peter Turrini


Born
in Wolfsberg, Carinthia, Austria
September 26, 1944


Peter Turrini is an Austrian leftist playwright.
Born in Carinthia, Turrini has been writing since 1971, when his play Rozznjogd premiered at the Volkstheater, Vienna. A versatile author, he has written plays, screenplays, poems, and essays. Rather than presenting an authentic picture of reality, in Turrini's understanding it is the function of the theatre to exaggerate and, by doing so, to raise the consciousness of the public.
He lives in Vienna and Retz, Lower Austria.

“Ich hatte Angst
in ein Gasthaus zu gehen
wenn Bauern drinnensaßen.

Ich dachte mir
daß sie nichts Gutes
über mich denken.

Ich überwand diese Angst
mit der Vorstellung
etwas Besonderes zu sein.

Das Besondere
bestand in meinem Leid.

Ich war erfüllt
von dem Maß
meiner Leiden.

Ich habe Angst
diese Leiden aufzugeben
weil ich nicht weiß
was dann
von mir übrigbleibt.”
Peter Turrini, Ein paar Schritte zurück.
