Emmanuel Swedenborg. Yea Forums loves him so fucking much.
Joseph Cooper
Bach unironically sucks. why did anyone ever think that g*rmans could make music successfully? who gave them instruments? also, who the fuck gave them books and taught them to read? who the fuck is responsible for these savages getting hold of technology and knowledge. holy shit I hate g*rmans.
Jason Peterson
>Whoso would seize the wondrous individuality, the strength and meaning of the German spirit in one incomparably speaking image, let him cast a searching glance upon the else so puzzling, wellnigh unaccountable figure of Music's wonder-man Sebastian Bach. He is the history of the German spirit's inmost life throughout the gruesome century of the German Folk's complete extinction. See there that head, insanely muffled in the French full-bottomed wig; behold that master, a wretched organist and cantor, slinking from one Thuringian parish to another, puny places scarcely known to us by name; see him so unheeded, that it required a whole century to drag his works from oblivion; finding even Music pinioned in an art-form the very effigy of his age, dry, stiff, pedantic, like wig and pigtail set to notes: then see what a world the unfathomably great Sebastian built from out these elements! I merely point to that Creation; for it is impossible to denote its wealth, its sublimity, its all-embracing import, through any manner of comparison.
Nolan Green
Wagner is the most Jewish-looking 'German' I've ever seen.
Landon Nguyen
Probably Shakespeare, though part of the reason this is so difficult is because Bach laid groundwork for many many compositions, and doesn't need translation to be enjoyed.
Equivalents would be any single person who not only made basic works demonstrating how to create literature who also made works that are still around. Part of the reason this is so difficult to pin down is time and evolution of language.
Jason Evans
Picrel is The Art of Fugue of literature.
Josiah Turner
So basically meme. Perfectly captures Queneau and Oulipo generally
Brody White
t. amerifart
Christian Flores
So you never read him or Oulipo.
Daniel Edwards
Dante
Daniel Brown
I literally started reading Queneau and Oulipo before even started reading literary fiction, you pleb
Christian Ross
But all you can offer is meme.
Robert Perry
It’s Yea Forums. I’m going to shitpost in a shitpost thread. If you want my serious opinion and analysis of Oulipo, then make a serious thread and I’ll genuinely contribute.

>I can't post my epic wisdom in a shitpost thread because it might get lost in the shit posts!
Ok. Whatever.
Jordan Taylor
why do you even think this?
Luke Morris
Shakespeare
Leo Thompson
Really? Never seen a thread about him (would love to). Nothing compared to Guenon threads.
Ian Lopez
No im just being ironic. Only the elect like myself love him.
Isaac Bell
Wrong.
His facial features.
Thomas Hughes
Oh idk maybe when they FUCKING DEFEATED the Roman Empire and assimilated their knolwedge and culture.
Blake Torres
Imagine being so far up the ass of sarcasm that you pop out its nose berating one of the greatest composers who ever lived.
Andrew Butler
God, when he wrote the boring parts of the old testament.
Kevin Nguyen
There is no other artist as great as Bach. Nobody comes close.
Eli King
h-have... you listened to bach?

Jaxon Baker
Bach's Air on G string is better than your nonexistent literary career
Aiden Martin
Kys faggot
Sebastian Hernandez
So many of the great composers were german its not even funny
William Richardson
Cervantes or Dante
Xavier Jackson
Emily Dickinson
Charles Rogers
this shit literally sounds like shitty 80's power rock, like def leppard or boston or something. it's just not good.
air on g string is somewhat decent (for bach) but it's still overrated as fuck.
Thomas Johnson
Shit taste.
>air on g string is somewhat decent
kek of course you only know popular meme pieces and you know them by their meme name.
Gabriel Cox
yes but what in his face gives any jewish feature?
Andrew Taylor

Daniel Brown
It is you, in fact, who is coping.

Liam Perez
Where my /fellow Christians/ at?
Gavin Collins
Spencer
Brandon Watson
Sounds fun from a sample but actually repetitive, highly derivative/generic, and turns out to be incomplete with no conclusion?
If you like Bach, read Albert Schweitzer's two part book on JS Bach. And of course GEB, which is actually kinda repetitive like art of fugue, a monologue in a pigtail spiral.
Caleb King
holy cringe
Christian Brown
For philosophy jacob boehme and Aqunias despite being Protestant. There is no one like Bach for literature.
Easton Perez
I'm a atheist, but if Christianity is a force and Bach a fruit of this force then when I hear Mass B's first vocal fugue I almost forgive Christianity for provoking the insanity that birthed this hell and me into it.
Alexander Roberts
Bachites, help me identify which composition this is. It starts like this:

Most versions of this aren't very good but these are not too bad youtube.com

My favorite is still the 1970 Nikolaus Harnoncourt voca.ro
They always seems to turn sour or are way too fast

I’m interested in your thoughts. Can you expand on your correlation?

There is none. There is no such thing as "absolute literature" like there is absolute music.
Eli Kelly
>voca.ro
Not Bach. Also, you're slightly tone deficient.
Lincoln Barnes
Tolstoy
Brody Kelly
who is the Alexander Nikolayevich Skryabin of literature
Jaxson Mitchell
Bach isn't absolute music. Using that romantic term on a baroque composer is anachronistic and an odd choice.
