If you guys are intellectuals why couldn't you handle CLT when he visited this board?

Anything can be subjectively better than anything, numbnuts. All a being has to do is perceive it that way. You have your philosophies mixed up.

>> No.2935388 [View]

I allowed myself to skim over that.

Whenever someone tries to apply the "obskewer is beddur" school of pop criticism to a discipline that isn't pop music, the result is even more excruciating than usual.

I recall an altercation where a trip named Daft!Punk persistently insisted that Allesandro Scarlatti was more innovative than J. S. Bach, with no suppers beyond "it just sounds that way to me".

No, because no piece of art can be inherently better than another piece of art.

I'm sorry you typed all that.

>> No.2935383 [View]

>>2935367
Then you read it wrong.

A person who knows theory doesn't interpret music on _better_ levels; rather, he becomes able to interpret music on _more_ levels.

To continue the translation analogy that works so succinctly, an English speaker can read The Brothers Karamazov in English only. If he learns Russian, however, he is able to read it in English AND Russian. Neither is inherently better, but one objectively provides for more options.

>Waaaaah we don't want to admit that CLT can interpret music on more levels than we can, so we resort to calling him names after we get stumped trying to address his logic

Pitiful board. It's like everyone here is as cocky as me yet as stupid as /mu/. Worst of both worlds.

>A translation of a novel and the novel itself are completely separate
Go write a translation without knowing the source language then. We'll wait.

>with neither being inherently better or worse than the other
Link to the post where I used better/worse language.

Reading comprehension, /lit/! This is as bad as a /mu/ thread! I'm disappointed in you.

All right, we'll engage on your terms, but first give me something to refute that's a little more specific than "the experts' opinions don't matter". I'm spoiled for choices at this point since I don't even know what your rationale is.

>> No.2935344 [View]

>>2935339
Mm, no.

Think of hearing music without theory knowledge as being analogous to reading a translation of a novel from a foreign language.

You can get the gist of it and certainly enjoy it, but you have no business attempting to argue specifics, especially when knowledgeable people are around.
