Lmao who gives a shit

And I didn't even have to pretend my favourite work of fiction was the Divine Comedy, or claim the work of two Americans to supplement my already tenuous list of artists.
>>
>>16534106
They have american citizenry, they speak english, they were born and raised in america. They barely know anything about italy at all and don't know basic italian. They're americans, deal with it.

Not OP and I don't care about wewuzing and there's a trillion Italian artist in every artistic field imaginable, you don't wanna go there

Wouldn't have placed himself above Dante

Scorcese and Avellone are infinitely more Italians than Mann and Kafka are Germans.
>>
>>16534159
None of them even touch Bach, Beethoven or Mozart.

>>16534244
Beethoven is mediocre and I mean this 100% unironically

You're a fucking JEW. Insallah your death will be swift.
>>
>>16534167
Why the fuck would I give a shit who some autistic racists thought were Germans?

Also, Mann and Faust (as well as my personal favourites of Hesse and Remarque) wrote infinitely more interesting and complex narratives than Dante's Divine Comedy. If the Catholic Church hadn't decided retroactively that that was how they would like to see their sinners punished it would have been forgotten by today. Although it does have quite colourful prose and scenery, it doesn't really stand on its own as a proper narrative.

Obviously this is just all subjective, but calling Dante the greatest writer of all time is laughable. Even within Italy I much preferred Virgil to Dante, although Virgil's Italianness could be questioned.

>>16534246
Filtered. My personal favourite is Brahms, but either way Beethoven is widely regarded by most Musical historians as the greatest and most influential Classical musician, and is undoubtedly greater than Vivaldi's frivolities.
>>
>>16534293
>Beethoven is widely regarded by most Musical historians
I literally don't give a shit, he's mid and most musical historians are also midwits or else their job wouldn't be "musical historian"

I agree here

>>goat painter sculptor architect
>>no italian
You do understand that the Greeks perfected sculpting and everything that the Romans and Italians did after were merely perfect copies of the thing which the Greeks had already mastered 500-1000 years before.
>>
>>16534459
>sculpting
They set the basics but renaissance perfected it, bernini mogs any greek sculpture. I don't deny greeks set the basics of sculpture, but the italians set the basics of classical music yet all the best composers are germans. Setting the basis/=goat
Reinaissance and what came afterwards is peak sculpture.

As for painting, italian paintings mogs everything that came before in a way that's not even close and that's a claim I challenge you to deny
>>
>>16534470
The Greeks never had oil on canvas. As for sculpting, you have no idea what you’re talking about.
>>
>>16534496

Ok, many others did an Italian painting is still peak.

Kubrick.
>>
>>16534568
He's not even top Jew. I personally really like Cronenberg. They're both on my top 10 but Lynch is on another level.

Mad Mel is kind of like Mendelssohn or Schubert. He didn't die but his career was cut short and he spent too much time blacklisted. Imagine Hitchcock not making a move for like 15 years during his prime. The world is now a darker place.

Pasolini is a better director than Scorsese howbeit.
>>
>>16534158
>>16534172
Scorsese is an Italo-American. You both have too limited a view of what the nation can be composed of. Italians in foreign nations are still part of the broader Italian nation. https://youtu.be/pcWUNfmf0tI?si=4-fAxh91BYPZF7S8

Maybe for people from suburban Noo Joisey who are looking for pics of famous Italians to add to their pizza shop wall.

Which "great" writers does France have? Zola, the whore eulogist? Houellebecq the pornographist? De Sade the pedophile and inventor of sexual Sadism?

obscure, he was barely recognized outside of germany and possibly in the northern regions of france; his music was not rediscovered until the 19th century
also he was a italiaboo (see pic related)

insignificant, salieri and porpora enjoyed far greater fame during in his time

destroyed classical music with his romantic garbage
