Adding to page

edit

I have recently done a lot of research on Eich, especially his assent and dissent to the Third Reich. I'm in the middle of adding to this page but it may take a few days to complete fully. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.132.31.116 (talk) 15:05, 27 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Think of this

edit

I changed the translation of the Eich epigraph used by James Dickey in "The Firebombing." It's important to translate Denke daran as "Think of this," not only because it's literally correct, but because Dickey uses those English words as a motif in his poem. -- Rob C (Alarob) 22:01, 30 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Changing the translation of beweisen back to "attest" instead of "show." The change to "show" implies that "every man" actually was innocent, which seems to run counter to Eich's intended meaning. -- Rob C (Alarob) 17:45, 6 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
