This is a literature board and your stupid and puerile sex puns are inappropriate, unacceptable, and not germane to the topic of the board. All of you Americans are rude illiterates who ridicule writers whose works of which you do not have the intellectual ability to read a syllable. The average French teenager can discuss all of the following:
>Les présocratiques ; Platon ; Aristote ; Zhuangzi ; Épicure ; Cicéron ; Lucrèce ; Sénèque ; Épictète ; Marc Aurèle ; Nāgārjuna ; Sextus Empiricus ; Plotin ; Augustin ; Avicenne ; Anselme ; Averroès ; Maïmonide ; Thomas d’Aquin ; Guillaume d’Occam. N. Machiavel ; M. Montaigne (de) ; F. Bacon ; T. Hobbes ; R. Descartes ; B. Pascal ; J. Locke ; B. Spinoza ; N. Malebranche ; G. W. Leibniz ; G. Vico ; G. Berkeley ; Montesquieu ; D. Hume ; J.-J. Rousseau ; D. Diderot ; E. Condillac (de) ; A. Smith ; E. Kant ; J. Bentham. G.W.H. Hegel ; A. Schopenhauer ; A. Comte ; A.- A. Cournot ; L. Feuerbach ; A. Tocqueville (de) ; J.-S. Mill ; S. Kierkegaard ; K. Marx ; F. Engels ; W. James ; F. Nietzsche ; S. Freud ; E. Durkheim ; H. Bergson ; E. Husserl ; M. Weber ; Alain ; M. Mauss ; B. Russell ; K. Jaspers ; G. Bachelard ; M. Heidegger ; L. Wittgenstein ; W. Benjamin ; K. Popper ; V. Jankélévitch ; H. Jonas ; R. Aron ; J.-P. Sartre ; H. Arendt ; E. Levinas ; S. de Beauvoir ; C. Lévi-Strauss ; M. Merleau-Ponty ; S. Weil ; J. Hersch ; P. Ricœur ; E. Anscombe ; I. Murdoch ; J. Rawls ; G. Simondon ; M. Foucault ; H. Putnam.

I am done with reading the illiterate American moron replying to every French literature thread with stupid and puerile sex puns and nonsense about Balzac sounding like ball sack. I will no longer tolerate this unacceptable behavior that is inappropriate and barely germane to the discussion of literature, which is the purpose of this board. He has been ridiculing French writers with these retarded replies all day and I am sick of his unfunny, puerile bullshit.
Balzac writes philosophical studies, scenes from the provincial life about inheritance, and scenes from Parisian life about money, yet all that obese American can think of when encountering one of the greatest novelists ever to grace the earth is the ball sack, presumably because he eats so much corn syrup that he cannot see his circumcised penis beneath his rolls of fat. The American education system has failed by allowing obese retards like him to waste their lives on their smartphones.
Meanwhile, French students are expected to be familiar with all of this by the time they complete high school:
>Les présocratiques ; Platon ; Aristote ; Zhuangzi ; Épicure ; Cicéron ; Lucrèce ; Sénèque ; Épictète ; Marc Aurèle ; Nāgārjuna ; Sextus Empiricus ; Plotin ; Augustin ; Avicenne ; Anselme ; Averroès ; Maïmonide ; Thomas d’Aquin ; Guillaume d’Occam.

Yet another illiterate American thread that is unacceptable and barely germane to the discussion of literature. Everyone is so tired of you spamming this board all day with this unfunny, stupid, puerile sex pun that only serves to demonstrate how America is an obese failure of a nation with no culture or honor.
Meanwhile, when I ask the average French 14 year old about this outstanding writer you Americans ridicule with the most stupid and most puerile sex puns, she can tell me all about them because the French high school curriculum is this:
>Les présocratiques ; Platon ; Aristote ; Zhuangzi ; Épicure ; Cicéron ; Lucrèce ; Sénèque ; Épictète ; Marc Aurèle ; Nāgārjuna ; Sextus Empiricus ; Plotin ; Augustin ; Avicenne ; Anselme ; Averroès ; Maïmonide ; Thomas d’Aquin ; Guillaume d’Occam.

Yet another illiterate American thread that is unacceptable and barely germane to the discussion of literature. Making threads ridiculing one of the greatest novelists of all time must be one of America's favorite pastimes after shoving corn syrup down your throat and wasting time on a smartphone, seeing as none of you obese Americans can read one syllable of their works from your smartphone-infested classrooms.

Yet another illiterate American thread that is unacceptable and barely germane to the discussion of literature. Americans can't read French writers, only point at them and make stupid puerile sex puns for the dumb laughter of other obese Americans.

American teenagers spend all of their time on their smartphones and American adults make stupid puerile sex puns about the greatest authors, most of whom they have not read.
Meanwhile, I can ask the average French 14 year old and she will tell me about the poetry of Charlemagne and Alexander. The French high school curriculum is this:

Authors
>The study of the works of philosophers is inseparable from the examination of ideas. Beyond the culture it provides, it forms the very subject of the teaching of philosophy. By accessing directly the singular way in which an author formulates a problem and examines its different aspects, the pupil nourishes his reflection in order to consider, from a broader and deeper perspective, the questions that are put to him and the texts he is asked to explain. The list of authors is organized according to three periods: Antiquity, the Middle Ages, Modernity, and the Contemporary period. This list does not prevent the professor, in the conduct of his lesson, from calling upon other authors. However, it obliges him to choose from among the works of the authors mentioned the one which is the subject of continuous study in class. In the final year of general education, study followed by a compulsory work. It is not separated from the course, the development of which it supports according to methods that the teacher determines from the needs of his students. The continued study of a work does not necessarily mean its complete study. However, it is advisable to always develop a precise analysis of works or selected parts which present sufficient scale, unity and continuity. The teacher ensures that the choice of the work or parts to be retained is suitable for promoting understanding by all students.
Notions
>The examination of concepts and the study of works are specified and enriched by ideas that the teacher seeks in the conduct of his teaching. Explicitly formulated so that students can make them their own, ideas are in no way the subject of separate instruction nor do they constitute parts of the course. Ideas take the form of lexical and conceptual distinctions which, when understood, support the thinking that the student constructs to deal with a problem. Their operational nature and their use adjusted to specific study and analysis situations prevent them from being reduced to rigid definitions.
