The Quote:
One of the characteristics of kitsch is precisely the neutralization of ‘extreme situations’, particularly death, by turning them into some sentimental idyll. — Saul Friedländer, historian
One of the characteristics of kitsch is precisely the neutralization of ‘extreme situations’, particularly death, by turning them into some sentimental idyll.
'O Usheen, mount by me and ride
To shores by the wash of the tremulous tide
Where men have heaped no burial mounds
And the days pass by like a wayward tune
Where broken faith has never been known
And the blushes of first love never have flown.'
