Talk:Arcadia (play)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
To who wrote this: How did you forget to note that it is extremely boring?
Wikipedia isn't here to bore people
To who wrote the above: You're not exactly Mr Cool either, if you had read/seen the play you would know that it is very interesting and therefore not "extremely boring". On your second note Wikipedia appears to me to be here to inform people, if you find that boring then boo ya sucks to you.
I have a bit of a problem with the first paragraph's claim that the word "Arcadia" is a reference to "Et in Arcadia ego". That's like saying that the word "happiness" is violent because it's a reference to the phrase "happiness is a warm gun".
I disagree with the opening explanation: "Latin phrase et in Arcadia ego which states that death is always present". It would be more accurate to say "usually interpreted" (as in the page on "et in Arcadia ego"). The reference to the phrase is explicit within the play, where the possible ambiguity of the phrase is discussed. --RichardVeryard 13:45, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
