Talk:The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Is the word in the title really "resistible" rather than "resistable"? Google gives about 20 times as many hits for the latter title. The Oxford English Dictionary allows both spellings. AxelBoldt 17:10 Nov 15, 2002 (UTC)

I just checked the Libary of Congress, and it seems that both spellings are in use in the title, but "resistible" is four times as common. So the article is fine, Google is wrong. AxelBoldt 17:26 Nov 15, 2002 (UTC)

I find your logic irresistible, as usual. --Ed Poor

The play has been criticized for emphasizing the gangster aspect of the Nazis and ignoring their strong ideological and racist appeal. --if you'll actually quote the critic or give his name at least, we'll stop thinking that this is your own criticism. One juicy Brechtian quote might give the flavor of the play.User:Wetman

brecht also wrote the caucation chalk circle, which i cant find much about on the net!

My copy from the publishers Methuen gives the title as 'Resistible'.--MatthewPetty 11:14, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Um. This article is a stub, can someone whos a Brecht expert please take some time to do a more comprehensive job. And change the title to one 'i', it seems to be causing quite a ruccus. JK 18:10, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
