Wust is a village and a former municipality in the district of Stendal, in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany. Since 1 January 2010, it is part of the municipality Wust-Fischbeck. == Geography and History == The village is situated in the northern Saxony-Anhalt not far from the river Elbe, near the old town Tangermünde which was a favourite place of Kaiser Karl IV in the 14th century. Wust consists of Wust, Sydow, Wusterdamm, and Melkow. In the last centuries the squires of Wust were the noblemen von Katte, their most famous member was Hans Hermann von Katte( youth friend of the later king Frederick II of Prussia ) who spent his childhood in Wust. The family v. Katte was related to the squires of the near village ''Schönhausen'', the v. Bismarcks. The ''Summer School for English language, literature, theatre and music'' is a yearly event during summer vacations in the small village Wust in Germany, Saxony-Anhalt. It is held in two courses, each lasting two weeks; there are levels for beginners and for pupils with intermediate and advanced knowledge of the English language. Alongside the English lessons are other activities, such as workshops for art, photography, music, and sport games. Participants also can take part in the theatre play, the climax of the school activities after 4 weeks. Since the mid-2000s, Shakespearian plays have been performed, including ''Richard III'' and ''Love's Labours Lost'', but also the more recently written ''Ten'' and the 2006 play ''The Storyteller''(Der Märchenerzähler). Concerts and readings in the Romanesque Wust church or in the surrounding villages and towns are an important part of the overall "Sommerschule" experience, both for participants and the community as a whole. The instructors are mainly students and English teachers from the UK and the United States. The teacher seminar course was taught for many years by Kari Nollendorfs graduate of the University of Wisconsin, Madison. The main goal besides promotion of education is cultural exchange between Germany and Anglo-Saxon countries. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wust, Saxony-Anhalt」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
