Slovo o polku Igoreve ???

[Markus Osterrieder]

Excuse me, but what is this rubbish all about?

Is this a list dedicated to scholarship, or is this alt.conspiracy or
alt.lunatic? Can't you accept any historical debate without using a
pump-gun? Just because I quote literature and do not stick to "general
opinions", I am on the pay-roll of Cold Warriors? Or is just your
personal spleen, to remain polite? If you got it like this, then you
understood nothing at all. This is not about Cold War. My starting point
was the "religious-spiritual accuracy" of a medieval epic, not a
conspiracy plot, CIA propaganda, or other rubbish. It is a bad sign for
the mental state of our age that you can't bring up many a subject
without being hit by "political correctness" or by frankly disturbed
arguments.

It is very disappointing and sad to have this as an "academic"
feedback...

Sad for the beautiful Slovo...
