Wine Causes Red Stool

Ii "Odyssey" - A drama in 5 acts

Liebe Leser,

ich habe nun ein kleines Experiment von literarisch-avantgardistischer Natur mit euch vor. Das heisst, ich werde etwas voellig Neues in meinem Blog versuchen, das es bisher so noch nie gegeben hat.
Mein Vorhaben ist es, ein fuer mich sehr bedeutendes Erlebnis write. But not just in conventional prose, but in the form of a drama. Where it is more a hybrid, so is a bastard, because I intend to merge elements from two different literary genres into one. Maybe I'll even throw in a little poetry with the cauldron.

However, the whole thing will be an anarchic opus. Because no way I'm going to stick to strict forms of conventional gasoline or observe conventions. This is not a German paper. It is nothing less than a declaration of war to journalistic standards and regulation, a rebellious manifesto, so to speak, which intends to bring the comfort of literary inertia's palace to collapse. A slap in the face to all the conformists of the German Language-culture!

There were a number of occasions this type of work, which knows no borders, while at times seeming Extraordinary reached. This is great from all well Goethe's Faust, which is one certainty at the most brilliant documents in human history ever devised.
And I dare to call this crown German art of writing in the same breath with my own scrawl?

Absolutely. For what would be a better guide and teacher? Just this link that I start here and now for the first time in my life, inspired me incredible. This leads ultimately to the fact that you, dear reader, a little less boring text before you have, if I may dare to hope.

big words, for true. But what exactly is behind it?

When I was a friend of the theater and the ancient world have always, it seemed to mind a classic drama of a Greek Theaterstuecks choose model as a basis for my project. Without wanting to digress
far will, I will explain the five divisions according to G. Freytag short, I will focus on the rough.

The drama consists of: first

Exposure (Introduction)
second Involvement
third Peripetie (complication)
4th Retarding torque (delaying the peak)
5th Dénouement (solution)

It should be away from me now elaborate on each item. Every act I will paying particular attention when the time comes.


Now only briefly to exposure. This is the part where the basic W questions, so who are-what-where-when-answer why. I called it incorrectly, "Prelude," which is actually an opening of music pieces. I found the name simply cool and yelled 90% of the readers probably either not known or noticed anyway, including me. This already starts the rebellion ...


with that in mind,

much fun this experiment. I know any more than you know what we can expect in the course of this drama. Whether or
tragedy Comedy is also still open. ;-)


all the best, your January
