Perlentaucher in English
I love Perlentaucher, and if there was one thing I could not really find in the british newspaper, magazine, no really in the english intellectual debate, it was a space like the German Feuilleton, highbrow discussion for the discussion sake in mainstream fora. My lack of French, Italian, Polish, Hungarian and Spanish will be revealed in its ignorantic consequences, as I am sure that they have rich discussions in the Feuilletons. But who am I to know. I am struggeling to learn my third contemporary language afterall.
I also know, there are individual publications like the New York Literary review and London review of books. But, sorry to say that, they pale into insignifcance....
But now, finally something similar in english comes by. http://signandsight.com/ from the people of Perlentaucher. Who else. Here is an article in the Spiegel about it.
And don't tell me Germans have no humour. Sein und Zeit. hmmm (-:
