Topic: Freude, sch

I approve.

Not many people know this, but I own the first radio in Springfield. Not much on the air then, just Edison reciting the alphabet over and over. "A" he'd say; then "B." "C" would usually follow...

Re: Freude, sch

ja, und?


..."Ode to Joy"??? This is Euro agitprop!! mad

The core joke of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is that of course no civilization would develop personal computers with instant remote database recovery, and then waste this technology to find good drinks.
Steve Jobs has ruined this joke.

Re: Freude, sch

For God's sake, it's Ode an die Fruede, and not Ode to Joy. Poetry can't be translated.. X(

God: Behold ye angels, I have created the ass.. Throughout the ages to come men and women shall grab hold of these and shout my name...

Re: Freude, sch

if it cant be translated its not worth knowing

because subtleties of meter and scansion are irrelevant to subject matter
and homage to customary forms is exclusive on purpose (haiku)

an art form to be shared globally should address universally recognizable subjects

if the artist has chosen not to share such concepts the foriegn audience should not attempt comprehension

not because of inferiority but through intellectual comprehension of a deliberate aspect of the art, conscious or unconscious-- the artist has chosen a focus on non-universal aspects of the medium

= you sing Ode to Joy because youre bigots tongue
