Who's the guy on the right?

Anglish.

French obviously

French. The germanic soul is not capable of producing beauty or anything of true artistic merit.

Rimbaud.

Norwegian Motherfuckers!

Hölderlin

german
t. Français

What an absolute gærn mann.

lmao germandroids.

not necessarily german but german speaking is superior imo, the vienna circle around Rilke, George and Trakl produced the best poetry known to mankind, other than that germans had the better romantics but frenchies had the better fin de siecle modernists

also why make it an either/or, when u can just read both ffs

Found the kraut

go listen to some Bach, Wagner and Beethoven you moron

>Anglish

cringe

t. dumb American

Germans have contributed more to art, literature, philosophy than the Fr*Nch ever will

Typical of the teutonic mind to be so terrified of the Anglos that he accuses all detractors of his "unique culture" to be either English or American. German contributions to the arts have always been, and always will be, sub-par at best and embarrassingly mediocre at worst. You would think a nation which has interacted with the French and Russians for so long would have learned something about culture, but they have stubbornly refused to do so.

Germanbros, is there a better poem in your language than Schiller's die Kindesmorderin?

...

The greatest aesthetic theory in the world was formulated by a German though.

So embarrassing that Germans basically had to outsource their literature to Austria and the Czechs because their own output was such second-rate trash.

>Bach, Wagner and Beethoven
is it physically possible to be more of an entry-level pleb than this?

>he doesn't know Gezelle
lol
but French ofc

>ywn hear rimbaud's soft moans as you push your metre into his tight little verse

Brainlet here, give me better composers?

Russian.

Best god damn literature there is.

I'm a composer myself, no one comes close to the German and Austrian catalog

>I'm a composer myself

u just know this dude has a fedora and a doting mommy

>Goethe versus some horny frogs
Hmm....

I know you can't even read music

>german
He was Polish actually

Can you link me some of your scores then? Not doubting you, just keen to hear.

Off the top of my head,
Dmitri Shostakovich
M.K. Čiurlionis

>t. pleb

I write them all out by hand and I'm not comfortable publishing or leaving out anything in the public just yet

kys

Russian:
Rimsky
Rachmaninoff
Tchaikovsky
(already been said, but should be stressed) Shostakovich

Contemporary:
Max Richter
Yann Tiersen

>entry-level
>bad thing
You could not come off as more of a pleb

I'm a big fan of Russian composers as well (particularly Tchaikovsky) but they still don't stack up to the German and Austrian heavyweights. Comparing Rachmaninoff to Beethoven or Wagner is just laughable

>wagner
Every single person on that list smokes him. You have to be joking.

I don't even know how to respond to that

>literature

this is about poetry.

Are prose poems allowed? If so Kafka blows everyone out of the water.

Quelle surprise

That neckbeard is only loved by pseuds like Nietzsche.

Considering that the two last two composers mostly make music for movies (probably to keep themselves paid), do you think Beethoven and Wagner would make music for big films, or small art ones? Try to keep their meme songs out of mind, because I know they're always used in big pics anyway.

Iet me respond for you:

Wagner demands 100 percent attention when you listen to him, just close your eyes, ignore all else and you will hear the beauty

How is it even a question? French for sure.

>german poetry
Lmao

English.

French between 1860 and 1899
German before and after

>German before 1860
End yourself please, it's truly embarrassing.

Rimbaud a cute!

not even reading this thread in fear of anyone who thought about saying german
