Talk:Kritik

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

i dont think you should say critiques are only spelled kritik. although that may be common in high school debate it is not standard among college debaters, nor those in highschool who focus on critical arguments.

[edit] US terms

This seems only to be a term in use in the US. Ozdaren 15:47, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

cite for shannahan founding the k? that's a big deal. 163.1.188.201 01:43, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

definitely needs citation although this will be hard to find. it's certainly not the case that FHSU innovated the k, since bill didnt even work there till the mid-90s. it's also probably wrong to say that anyone "invented" it-- but if any single figure should be pointed to, it's bill.129.2.57.63 00:07, 18 December 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Photo

I'm curious about the photo for Policy Debate on this page. It looks like some guys in a park with a recycling bin. What does that have to do with policy debate? FoiledAgain 16:57, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

That recycling bin is called an "evidence tub", which is used to hold debate evidence in the form of cards. The park, I believe, is part of the grounds at the St. Marks school in Texas, which hosts a yearly debate tournament. 68.91.129.63 21:38, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Women Authors

Our common kritik authors dont include any women. Are there really none that are used heavily enough to be worth including. Arendt? Butler? Its a little disconcerting that I'm not sure I can think of one off the top of my head whose use is wide spread enough in debate to be applicable on this list.Netbenefit 05:46, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Kritikal = kritisch?

"and takes the adjective form kritikal (meaning and pronounced as `critical`)." (ll.3f)

Is the term kritikal supposed to be german? The German adjective form of Kritik is `kritisch`. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.129.253.167 (talk) 15:14, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
