I heard that with Kant (who is easier to read than Hegel I guess) some educational programs in Germany give their students English translations to read because those are smoother ... Kant could be tough but Hegel is definitely more complicated. I read in Dutch and I think reading it in another language than my first will make it even more complicated 😉 but I don’t mind. Just means I will get slower trough it and leave it aside on those evenings when I am tired or unfocused. Got his biography for those evenings which is very fun to read and gives his other book more context. Quote

Seems reasonable to me. Off topic but is anyone excited about the bands named to the HofF? And to think, XTC remains out. The RRHOF continues to celebrate mediocrity. Quote
JSngry Posted June 28 Report Posted June 28 Joe Cocker, Thom Bell, Cyndi Lauper, and Soundgarden all made marks. And although I totally get Carol Kaye's point...she definitely made her mark. Quote
mikeweil Posted July 1 Report Posted July 1 A crime mistery novel based on Chandler and McDonald with a similar personality as a private investigator. Since he is a jazz fan, and the author wrote the biography of one of my favourite musicians, Cal Tjader records are played frequently in this book. Quote
GA Russell Posted yesterday at 05:49 AM Report Posted yesterday at 05:49 AM Am I the last man in America to have read this? More novellas. Memoirs of a drug smuggler. Apparently, it's easy until they all start ratting on each other. Quote
