Talk:Georg Trakl

Citations

This is a generally well-written and informative article (although it could be longer and could also say something about the reception of Trakl's poetry, both during his lifetime and after his death). However, when making potentially controversial statements regarding the possibility that he engaged in an incestuous relationship with his sister, or regarding his personal motives for studying to be a pharmacist, we really need some specific citation. Presumably, the bibliography cited at the end of the article can provide just this, but I'm not sufficiently familiar with any of these sources to do the job myself. Anyone feel like helping out?

Looks like another anonymous user has completely removed these references. They also removed descriptions of his actual work that I found helpful. The present article has been so sanitized that it gives no indication of his character or relationships with others. - 72.57.120.3 08:41, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Clinical Depression?

I removed him from the Category:People Diagnosed with Clinical Depression because there was no formal diagnosis made (although there probably should have been).

bad link

the link to the 1961 (?) translations PDF is bad ; I have some copyright doubts about this as well.

Incest

It's a good story, but I've read stuff recently that treats idea that GT had sex with his sister very cautiously. There doesn't seem to be any real evidence, as I dimly remember the author saying....Don't know, but seemed like a pretty credible book. Certainly I've never heard that the opposite was true -- that is, that it's a firmly established fact. The situation isn't clearly reflected in the wikipedia article, which says "poems allude to an incestuous relationship."

Which poems? I vaguely recall interpretations of one or two that have claimed this, but only by stretching a bit. That's fine, but at best is a matter of interpretation/opinion. Seems that Trakl typically writes in a manner that doesn't make clear allusions.

Also, lead asserts he's best known for "Groedek." Definitely not to me (though I'm aware of the poem)....How would this be determined?

Cultural References

Trakl is celebrated in a number of works by the electronic composer Klaus Schulze. In particular "Georg Trakl" from the album X [[1]], "Sebastian im Traum" from the album Audentity[[2]], and the opera "Totentag". Totentag[[3]] uses the pre-existing music of Schulze with libretto and voice parts added by Hermann Schneider. 2406:5A00:D018:1F00:717D:7B9:2434:2B65 (talk) 14:43, 8 November 2021 (UTC)

Well said. It's too bad this is not referenced in the text. 79.150.91.248 (talk) 17:58, 17 November 2024 (UTC)
