Schadenfreude, A Love Story
« Reply #15 on: August 28, 2021, 06:44:59 pm »
While in "The Dollar Store," I happened across a c.2017 hardcover book called Schadenfreude, A Love Story: Me, the Germans, and 20 Years of Attempted Transformations, Unfortunate Miscommunications, and Humiliating Situations That Only They Have Words For by a Rebecca Schuman. 

See A conversation with Rebecca Schuman about German humor, Kafka, and her new book Schadenfreude: A Love Story.

I thought it might bring me a little balance after that Celine pamphlet.   How could I resist?  It was like the book was placed there for me to find.   I will honor the author by giving the book some attention, and I bet I stand to learn something valuable.   That is the same reason I have been devoting some attention to Wildberger's Divine Proportions.

I do not take my "attraction" to the ideas of Edmund Husserl (over those of Heidegger) lightly.   I am an honest man, and I do not deny the contradictions, nor the humor in certain paradoxes.   

Thankfully, I am also partly Sweed, and even a little Czech ... so I am already a mut.  Not only that, but I am an independent thinker.   I really am trying to understand, trying to become Animal Being Transcending Human Society.
