Minister of Education Sven Teuber: A Passionate Advocate for Books and Small Publishers
In a recent interview with the German Press Agency in Mainz, the newly appointed Minister of Education, Sven Teuber, revealed his strong affinity for books. A member of the SPD party, Teuber expressed his preference for traditional printed books over e-books, stating, "I need the book. The book is a cultural asset for me."
With a particular fondness for small publishers and their works, Teuber pointed out that the e-book market predominantly caters to bestsellers, leaving smaller publishers at a disadvantage. He believes that the book, being an art and cultural form, deserves a more balanced market.
Currently, Teuber is immersed in reading Labatut's novel "Maniac." The book, he says, is captivating as it delves into the life of Hungarian-American mathematician John von Neumann, algorithms, and the evolution of atomic bombs.
In his role as Minister of Education, Teuber's passion for books and commitment to supporting small publishers may influence future educational policies, potentially shaping the literary landscape in Germany.
