Hi, I'm new to Tumblr, new to the YR's fandom. Been lurking for a while. This is my first post. I obsess so much about this show. Not so healthy to be in such limerence, not getting so much work done lately. I took the obsession to a whole new level by subscribing to TV microscope's substack, getting a twitter account, an insta account etc. And it has just been feeding the obsession so far.

Anything to get some content.

Thanks for all these lovely insights. I've been reading an insane amount of stuff. I just refrained from reading the fanfic for lack of mental space.

Has someone a link to an analysis about the literary books that serve as intertextual reference in the show ? Apart form the Karin Boye reference, there is also a moment when Wille and Felice enter a classroom to clear the air after the awkward kiss. And there on the board, in capital letters, you have the list of the books they had to choose from (August Strindberg, 1849, Selma Lagerlof 1858, Hjalmar Soderberg 1869 and Karin Boye 1900. ) Can anyone link them to the show ?

Thanks in advance. I am not that versed in scandinavian authors (I had only heard about Stringberg).

"Benché non sia che piccolo e debole, pure debbo poter fare qualche cosa per questo povero martoriato» pensò l’uccello: e allargò le ali e volò via per l’aria, descrivendo larghi giri intorno al Crocifisso.

Gli volò intorno parecchie volte senza ardire d’avvicinarsi, perché era un uccellino timido, che non aveva mai osato avvicinarsi ad un uomo. Ma un po’ per volta si fece coraggio, volò molto vicino e col becco tolse una spina che si era piantata nella fronte del Crocifisso.

In quel momento una goccia di sangue del Crocifisso cadde sul petto dell’uccello. Si allargò rapidamente, colò giù e tinse tutte le pennine delicate del petto. Ma il Crocifisso aperse le labbra e sussurrò all’uccello: «Per la tua pietà ora avrai quello che la tua razza ha desiderato sempre da quando fu creato il mondo».

Poco dopo, quando l’uccello ritornò al suo nido, i piccini gridarono: «Il tuo petto è rosso, le penne del tuo petto sono più rosse delle rose!»

«Non è che una goccia di sangue della fronte di quel pover’uomo» disse l’uccello. «Scomparirà, appena farò il bagno in un ruscello o in una limpida sorgente».

Ma quando l’uccellino fece il bagno la macchia rossa non scomparve dal suo petto, e quando i suoi piccini divennero grandi, la tinta rossa splendeva anche sulle penne dei loro petti, come d’allora in poi splende sul petto e sulla gola di ogni pettirosso".

Der Sturm（The Storm:風暴）是一本德國藝術和文學雜誌，涵蓋表現主義、立體主義、達達和超現實主義等藝術運動。它發表於1910年和1932年之間。

Der Sturm於1910年由Herwarth Walden在柏林成立。它由每週的出版，到1914年每月的發行，以致到1924年變成季刊。雜誌模仿意大利文學雜誌La Voce在1908年至1916年間在佛羅倫薩出版。 Der Sturm於1932年停刊。

該雜誌的文學貢獻來自彼得•阿滕貝格(Peter Altenberg),馬克斯•布羅德(Max Brod 即為卡夫卡留下重要文件與著作者)，理查德•德梅爾( Richard Dehmel),，阿弗雷德•德布林(Alfred Döblin)，安諾特 法蘭斯(Anatole France)，阿諾•霍爾茲(Arno Holz)，卡爾•克勞斯(Karl Kraus)，塞爾瑪•拉格爾夫(Selma Lagerlof)，阿道夫•洛斯(Adolf Loos)，海因里希•曼(Heinrich Mann)，保羅•謝爾巴特(Paul Scheerbart)和雷內•施克爾(Rene Schickele)。

Der Sturm由表現主義的戲劇（來自Hermann Essig和August Stramm）、藝術作品��（分離畫派的柯克希卡Oskar Kokoschka和Curt Stoermer）、藝術家的文章（康丁斯基專輯）和海華斯‧華爾登 (Herwarth Walden)的藝術理論著作組成。而從雜誌產出最著名的出版物是Sturmbücher（暴風雨書），（例如Sturmbücher1和2是August Stramm - Sancta Susanna和Rudimentär的作品）。而且這雜誌還製作了明信片，包括弗朗茨•馬克(Franz Marc)，康丁斯基(Wassily Kandinsky)，柯克希卡(Oskar Kokoschka)，August Macke，Gabriele Münter，Ge Bauer等人的表現主義，立體主義和抽象藝術。這裡有多位是與藍騎士畫派(The Blue Rider)重疊的。 Sturm一詞是由Walden品牌代表當代藝術滲透德國的方式。

該雜誌還促進了Strum畫廊的成立，於 1912年在瓦爾登(Walden)慶祝其第100期的出刊。畫廊成為柏林現代藝術場景的焦點長達十年。從野獸派(Fauves)和藍騎士畫派(Der Blaue Reiter)的介紹開始，隨後在德國介紹意大利的未來派，立體畫派和奧菲主義(Orphists)，畫廊並展出孟克(Edvard Munch)，布拉克(Georges Braque)，畢卡索(Pablo Picasso)，梅辛格(Jean Metzinger)，阿爾伯特•格列茲( Albert Gleizes)，迪勞尼(Robert Delaunay)，Gino Severini，阿普(Jean Arp)，克利(Paul Klee)，康丁斯基(Wassily Kandinsky)，Serge Charchoune和Kurt Schwitters。

戰爭結束後，瓦爾登將Strum發展至 Strumabende，並舉辦現代藝術的講座和討論，以及一個表現主義的劇場DieSturmbühne，也由Oskar Kokoschka等著名藝術家出版書籍和作品集。儘管如此，畫廊在戰爭後的重要性逐漸下降，並於1924年關閉，留下雜誌，以季刊方式出版，直到1932年完全關閉。

Tell them that you know there is no salvation in concealment! The demons love the darkness. May your judges' hands wrap themselves around the scourge! The punishment will fall like comforting balsam on the wounds of sin. Your heart longs for suffering.
