Reading Faust at school was more fun than I expected as was discussing it:
Me: -So, we have a genius scholar who is bemoaning his inability to ever reach his full potential during his life on Earth. The moment he has the devil at his service, he makes himself look hot and tries to get into an innocent girl's pants, only to desert her and party with some horny witches. Did I get this right? -
Teacher: Well, yeah, pretty much.

I remember reading Faust for a German Lit class back during my finance degree.
The song Drag Me to Hell by Theory of a Deadman was practically written about that play, and I used it as flavor text to open my paper. My professor loved it so much he includes the song in the curriculum now!

I'm a senior in undergrad about to get my bachelors degree in theatre. I love, love, LOVE this series, but I would be interested in seeing an episode on technical theatre. Either way, keep doing what you're doing and thank you! :)

Woh! Before this vid I had not realized the parallels of todays cinematic writers and narrative revolutions from the past. I always thought romanticism was 300 year old love stories about Mr Darcy or the last of Mohicans.

Melange is Gemisch or Mischung. German has many words for the same concept, which makes it great for Poetry.
Today is the perfect Day to start learning German.
I would like to know more about German Lieder.
Thank you.

Question for everyone:
How does what we know about an author/artist/composer color our appreciation of their work? Should Wagner-s anti-Semitism lower his standing in the ranks of great composers?

And for a Second there I thought that Richard Wagner, was referring to Donald, but then Wagner would Either be a Jedi, or a Sith Lord, to Foresee that.

I love how Mike always looks like he's letting us in on a hilarious secret or inside joke. It really makes these fun to watch!
