"Durchschnittlich" bezeichnet bitte Personen welchen Alters? (Bei meinen Eltern, Jg. ~1950, stehen z. B. die Hauptwerke von Verne, Dumas etc. im Regal, auch Michael Ende, Der Wüstenplanet, Herr der Ringe...)

Grokipedia, was ja angeblich auch Grok ist, sagt dazu ja aktuell noch (?) Folgendes (cit. "Holocaust (disambiguation)"):

In Quellenkunde mit den Studierenden Handschriftenerkennungsalgorhithmen zur Quellenerschließung ausprobieren wäre so für Historiker vllt. sinnvoll, was KI angeht.

Ja, die Stunde haben sie damit dann geschafft. 888

Die Alliteration ist schon was awkward.

Geisterfahrer!

Ich komme mir vor, als kommt aus mir selbst, der ich Verfasser bin, eine Polyphonie von Stimmen, eine plurale Autorenschaft meines eigenen Textes: der Erzähler und der Kritiker - und der Metakommentator in Gestalt der Fußnote.

...position, and thus retaining Wissenschaftlichkeit. (Being an existentialist like Sartre and Ortega, he concluded that judgments of anything that leads to needless death/suffering being negative, and anything that prevents/reduces such as positive, being universal, rooted in the human condition.)

That you mentioned neutrality also reminded me of my last commute-book (yay DB), which was 1967's "Geschichtsphilosophie und Wertproblem" by Alfred Stern, who did also pose the question of which value-judgments historians were able to make without expressing a historically contingent subjective...

Also I am actually tempted to analyze one of these on "fiction, bullshit, why?". Yoritomo, maybe?

It did take people quite some time (esp. in history) to get (back?) to that insight, though, didn't it?

It reminds me of the "blasse Objektivität" that Siegfried Kracauer spoke of when writing about historiography in his last monograph, perhaps?

Me neither, I'd like to know where it's situated. Narratologically speaking, everything is prefaced by "The author says/writes" anyway: thus, no need for awkward passives and "this paper argues" nonsense, no? It can't shake of the feeling that it is a remnant of a certain idea of objectivity.

Do you happen to know which period is guilty of this obsession with not using "ich"? Reading old philosophy (40s-70s) mostly lately and they, at least, don't see a problem with it...

I love 3 😂
