Vera Ludwig (born 5 May 1978, in Detmold) is a German poet. [1]
Vera Julia Ludwig was born in Detmold in North Rhine-Westphalia in 1978. After finishing school with the Abitur at Christian-Dietrich-Grabbe-Gymnasium in 1997 she studied special needs education at the University of Cologne to become a German teacher. In 2004 she started working as a student teacher at a special school in Gütersloh. From 2006 to 2008 she was a teacher at a special school, first in Beckum, later back at her first school in Gütersloh. [2]
Besides working as a teacher she developed her talent as a writer, especially as a poet. She first published some of her poems in 2000 in the anthology Junge Lyrik II [3] by Martin Werhand Verlag. [4] From 1999 to 2002 Martin Werhand Verlag published 3 volumes of poetry, each with 750 poems of 50 young, yet unpublished authors. [5] In connection with this some of the authors, among them Vera Ludwig, participated in a series of readings of their works at the University of Cologne. [6] More poems by Vera Ludwig can be found in the anthology Junge Lyrik III from 2002. [7] In March 2016 she published her first own book of poetry Sandtropfen (Drops of Sand) in the series 50 Gedichte (50 poems) [8] by Martin Werhand Verlag, half a year later her second one with the title Horizont (Horizon) in the series 100 Gedichte (100 poems) [9] by the same publisher. [10] Vera Ludwig's poetry is characterized by a direct or metaphorical, psychologically motivated figurative language like the one of Erich Fried [11] or Sarah Kirsch.
