“Vulgivag“ – Jena debaters present their society
The Debattiergesellschaft Jena (DGJ) presented their debating society at Friedrich Schiller University. They allured students interested in debating with home-made cakes and issues of DIE ZEIT. On DGJ’s website, it is reported that students were introduced to and had the chance to deliver impromptu speeches with motions such as “A woman’s place is in the kitchen”. Other rhetoric games included the explanation of made-up inkhorn terms such as ‘vulgivag’ or ‘kökkenmödinger’.
