Talk:Danse Macabre

message: I removed the reference to Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh's Seal -- the author states that the danse macabre is the theme of the film, apparently confusing the dance at the film's end with both danse macabre and the whole film's theme. The removed reference was:
"danse macabre was the theme of Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal, a movie where a knight plays chess with Death."
–Boy, someone must have REALLY messed with it between me entering it (forgot to sign in on it that time sorry) and you deleting it wouldn't it be easier to just bring it back to the surviving performers watching Death lead the rest of the cast away in a slow danse macabre?—Montanto 00:54, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm unfamiliar with the Inhumanoids, but the description here doesn't really sound like a Danse Macabre, in that it doesn't have the aspect of showing death as something that happens to those from all stations in life. That is, it's apparently a dance, and it's apparently macabre, but I'm not sure that merits mention here.
By the way, if we are looking for animations that may vaguely relate to this theme, there are a few examples of Max Fleischer's work that might belong, most notably his 1932 cartoon of "Minnie the Moocher". - Jmabel | Talk 05:54, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

message: "Ich habe gehabt [vil arbeit gross]"
Shouldn't that be "viel", or was "vil" accepted back then too?
I don't seem to find anything else on the internet that says vil, nor any other copies of the lyrics besides what wikipedia and wikipedia-derivatives provide. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Karch (talk • contribs) 26 August 2006.
: Don't know, but given that the word is apparently conjectural and the rest of the spelling is not particularly archaic, I'd tend to be with you on this. You might want to go back through the article history, work out who added this, and ask them. - Jmabel | Talk 18:37, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

message: If anyone has ever looked at art relating to day of the dead, you can notice that the art is similar: People from all walks of life portrayed as skeletons designed to mock earthly life and say that death is inevitable. Is there any connection between the two?--Nog64 00:51, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not aware of any, though it is likely that modern Day of the Dead imagery would be influenced by historic Danse Macabre imagery. - Jmabel | Talk 22:44, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I agree. There's no reason to prefer the French over the English in the English Wikipedia. The term "Dance of Death" is common enough in literature and on the internet. — Parsa (talk) 22:36, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

message: This section is entirely too long, with too many examples of no clear relevance or notability.  Simply giving a song or album that title does not make it relevant.  I am going to begin removing some of them. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 16:00, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

message: What is "estates satire"?  It is used casually in the article introduction; I think it is safe to assume that most people are unfamiliar with the phrase.

message: Is there any reason why the title appears translated in so many languages, right in the lead sentence? It's not "variously called" Dansul Morţii or Mrtvaški ples in English speaking countries. This makes no sense so I'll suggest removing them. If the French phrase is commonly used in English speaking countries it should stay, but the rest in my opinion should be removed. Laurent (talk) 08:02, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Danse Macabre in all the languages 

message: A question, perhaps trivial but pertinent:
"The Totentanz of Metnitz, for example, shows how a pope crowned with his mitre is being led into Hell by the dancing Death." 
I don't see anything in the photo indicating that the pope is in fact "being led into Hell." Being led into the grave, or into the land of darkness historically called Sheol, does not necessarily mean that Hell follows. Is it possible that "into the grave" or "into the land of the dead" might be more accurate?

message: To whoever is reading this, 
I have one question: I'm planning on making an English translation template on the article's subject's name (I'm basically going to make something like this: "". However, the article says that the English translation of Danse Macabre is also used instead of Danse Macabre itself. Once I put in the Eng. translation template, people might think that it's just a translation, but it's not. It's also an alternative name for Danse Macabre, according to the article. Is there a possible method where I can put in the translation template and somehow also note that the translation is also an alternative name for Danse Macabre? Thanks. Hope somebody replies soon. —24.5.45.46 (talk) 02:06, 23 October 2017 (UTC)
