dunno them enough but
but

Do Anna Seghers and Heinrich Böll deserve their names here?

Wittgenstein.

What we assume to be the ground in this picture is actually another book, muck bigger than all the others, thay reads «Jordan Peterson».

>>12355265
Why is Luther there and it's so big.
He literally wrote "On the Jews and their lies".
What did the Germans mean by this ?
Why isn't Hitler there ?

Maybe the book she wrote depicting the moral experience of the Second World War presented itself as coherent and sophisticated for an informative and enjoyable read.

>>12355265

>implying Doris Lessing in worthy of company with those other writers

She wrote one (1) good book in the 60s and that somehow made her worthy of the Nobel prize after 40 years of writing mediocre science-fiction.

Grass is shit. Arendt and Brecht, while not bad, are not at the level of the others and should not be there.

>>12355343
You think all Martin Luther wrote was that?

Holy fuck, some of you have really no idea how the real world is

>>12355265
Goethe, Heine, Grimms, Hegel, Fontane....

>>12355662
arendt is massively influential boyo. And brecht is pretty much just a wink-wink nudge-nudge stand in for adorno horkie et al

someone please destroy that book stack
that modern art is uglier than graffiti

>>12355718
She's popular but i wouldn't say influential. I don't think she ever said much new.

>>12355664
>You think all Martin Luther wrote was that?
Oh no, but are they gonna ignore he wrote that ?

>>12355664
>>12355770
>>12355664

Luther is included because of the 95 Theses. Stop making this a racism thing when it's not.

>>12355361
Ticks me off as well but it's probably because of muh Nazis. Such a shame.

>people itt casually shitting on Brecht
Really reveals the pseudry of this board, not knowing jack shit about theater.

>>12355349
lmao

>>12355791
And also his translation of the Bible and the fact that he founded their branch of Christianity...

>>12355791
Yet they don't include Nietzsche.
If you gotta Make it a racial thing don't be half assed about it.

>>12355836
I think they should have included Nietzsche.

Nietzsche and Wagner should be included, even if adding a musician such as Wagner would be a slippery slope. The man wrote a lot, and was very influential.

Schopenhauer, while mostly forgotten today by the big public, was the most influential philosopher up until 1914 and might as well be included if you're gonna list Arendt. Also, Heidegger. But they're probably afraid of their wrongthink.

>>12355844
They even included Marx ffs

>>12355850
Marx did nothing wrong

>>12355844
I also agree

Whoever made this should be shot

>>12355850
Marx is objectively important to literature. They should have included Engels too even though he was technically English or whatever.

>>12355850
The sign does say "Germany - Land of Ideas", not "Germany - Land of Good Ideas"

>>12355361
Yeah, what? They shouldve put stirner on top

>>12355850
literally the most influencial writer of the past 150 years, and he shows no signs of stopping

>>12355850
And they left off Thalmann and Luxemburg!

>>12355408
>>12355662
Brecht literally revolutionized theater, you hopeless plebs. And Grass is absolutely based and danzigpilled.

>>12355844

Pains me they won't include Heidegger when Marx and his line of thinking is probably way more dangerous.

>>12356280
Just saying his biggest influence is in the political and social sphere (obviously). Brecht, Gorky, and Sartre are probably the three biggest names when thinking of the words "Marxist writers".

No one cares about masturbatory Marxist "philosophers" like Adorno, Marcuse, or Zizek.

>>12355265

Have Germans done more damage to humanity than any other race?

>>12355343
Kant and Hegel were just as anti-semitic. Not even memeing they thought Jews were spiritually absent sub-humans

>>12355399
I have no idea. It's probably the fact that it's good to take pictures of with your own ugly face in the foreground.
I don't think it's a German phenomenon, but it mostly caters to these whiny artsy lefties. Not that I'm a conservative, I'm just apolitical really.

>>12356874
Thanks for the blogpost dude

>>12356432
Nobody knows of him. Nobody cares either. World War 1 veterans have pretty much nothing to tell that is of worth to anyone. It's all the same anyway, the war was so bad, so many died, I still liked it though lmao.

>>12356881
No problem fag. Bet you're some burger who thinks he is above Germany when it comes to gaudy public art or public movements

This, where is Heidegger, Nietzche and and Hitler

>>12357316
How low is you’re fucking IQ? How could Luther, a man born years before communism is even an idea, be communist? The Brothers Grimm? Hegel? Hesse?

The jewish occupation of Germany continues.

Under all the corpses.

>>12356600
What kind of evil stuff did Hegel do?

>>12358479
Stirner was an egoist, but was also against private property. Would he be a "communist" in the eyes of Burgers?

>>12359393
Exist.

>>12359406
Probably not. Abolishing private property is necessary but not sufficient for communism

>>12355265
Why no Nietzsche? Were they creators kant fanboys?

They were obviously Marxbots

They were right. But spirituality seems to be a great weakness that leads to extinction, so I don't know why that is 'against' them.

Circumcision makes you less human and less divine. It only causes a great tragedy and wound to be utilized by the power hungry.
It also kills the spiritual side. You have been cattle-branded by a spiritual entity that owns you. Consider that.

>masturbation = spirituality
Imagine being this kiked.

>>12360198
Yeah, that's exactly what was meant.
No. Baby torture and trauma-based mind control make you less human and more of a tool.

>>12355544
She's not a bad writer or anything it's just no sensible person would pick her and leave out Nietzsche or Heidegger or someone. They had way better options.

>>12355265
It’s kind of embarrassing how they don’t have Nietzsche there

>>12360175
>muh dick

Grass probably isn't the most important author on that list but I enjoy his books a lot. In terms of the novelists on the list I like him best.

>>12355361
JEEEEWWWWWSSSSS

>>12355265
Is Schopenhauer not considered German? Or Polish?

Luther is the most important German. It was with Lutheranism that Germany entered the stage, not to mention the first stages of Neuhochdeutsch, which Luther set down.

Think about it - the trajectory of Enlightenment, Counter-Enlightenment & Marxism are all German & would be impossible without the reformation - Luther, Kant, Hamann, Herder, Fichte, Schelling, Hegel, Feuerbach & Marx.

The followers of Marx's ideology have shown themselves to be either destructive monsters or subversive rats. At best they're blind ideologues and at worst they're literal demons.

>>12362866

Marx is the evolution of filosofia. You cannot live in the contemporary world, intellectually, without dealing with him & those he influenced.

>>12362868
>You cannot live in the contemporary world, intellectually, without dealing with him & those he influenced.
