The content dealing with the culture of Germany as a political state has been moved to this page from the article german culture. The article german culture deals with the culture of the entire German speaking people, regardless of political categories. Robin klein 15:56, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Cuisine of Germany

Lol - this article is full of stereotypes about Germany - it is like saying that all Americans eat just Hamburgers, French Fries and Ketchup only...

[edit] Beethoven portrait

Hello, the portrait of Beethoven by Carl Jaeger that was on this page was painted long after Beethoven's death and (if we are judge by the portraits painted from life) doesn't look like him. For this reason, the Jaeger portrait is not generally used in Wikipedia articles about Beethoven. I've substituted a painted-from-life portrait. Opus33 15:32, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Poor article

Nothing about nationalism influenced culture of Germany(especially romantism era) and its ideas embraced in literature, music about Jews, Slavs and Poles. Which is an important element of any discussion about German culture considering XVIII, XIX and XX century in most books about the subject. Likewise Luther portait sits next to brief statement about Jewish religion, while nothing is mentioned about his claims that Jews are 'devil's people' and calls to burn their temples, and sanctioning even murder.--Molobo (talk) 17:42, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
