Talk:Jean Améry

message: There's one thing I really don't get about Wikipedia. If there's already really good information about a subject online, such as the D. G. Myers biograpy of Jean Améry to which this (of course entirely insufficient) Wikipedia article links, why add another bit of information that will only overlap?
:Nothing's stopping you from editing this yourself. I would but I have other priorities right now.
:Oh, wasn't Bergen-Belsen liberated by the British? It seems the original author read the Myers bio in too much haste. Daniel Case 19:42, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

message: Amery later wrote a second book, On Suicide: A Discourse on Voluntary Death. His philosophical explorations in this book evidently led him to a positive conclusion in his own mind regarding the virtues of suicide, for in 1978 he followed his own advice and killed himself by taking an overdose of sleeping pills.
This is irreverant and crude.  One cannot conclude meaningfully that Amery's suicide was the result of "following his own advice" simply because he did so after writing On Suicide.
The above quoted segment should be edited or removed.
'Proctor'?  You probably wanted to say post hoc ergo propter hoc.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.43.212.247 (talk) 21:48, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

message: A list of Amery's books and essays are blatantly missing from the page. I myself don't know his complete works but if anyone knows his works well enough this should have priority, it seems.
