Talk:Eucatastrophe

message: There should be a discussion on the religious implications of this word.  Tolkien was very clear that this word was religious in nature as well. TedTschopp (talk) 14:51, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Religion

message: Someone with better Greek than mine needs to clarify this, and online references for Tolkien's essay(?) on the word's origin would help, but the LSJ Greek-English lexicon lists εὐκατά-στροφος - i.e., eukatastrophos - as meaning 'brought to a good conclusion, well-turned'. This makes it sounds like Tolkien only resurrected or appropriated the term.
Also the noteworthiness of an article on a Greek term adopted by Tolkien for an extant literary phenomenon is questionable, unless it can be shown to have remained in use.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.160.136.93 (talk) 06:19, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Coined by Tolkien? 

message: The Eagles are also textbook examples of eucatastrophe-nearly every appearance of them results in a sudden and unexpected rescue, whether in the Silmarillion, Hobbit, or Lord of the Rings. Given this, and that the Eagles(Middle-Earth) page links to eucatastrophe, I have added a line including them under Examples in Tolkien's Work.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Blindwithstars (talk • contribs) 00:43, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Eagles as Eucatastrophe 

message: So does this mean that examples of deus ex machina in ancient Greek theatre should be classified as eucatastrophe? In modern works, if a god suddenly drops out of the sky and starts interfering it's generally regarded as an author's saving throw. But in Ancient Greece there was an expectation that gods *did* regularly do that. So does that mean the modern usage of deus ex machine no longer applies to it and eucatastrophe is a more accurate description? --Irrevenant [ talk ] 01:04, 6 December 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: It's questionable whether Tolkien can make extant definitions and terms undone, simply because he doesn't want them applied to his work because of their negative connotations.  Which appears to me the only reason why he would coin Eucatastrophe.  After all, Eucatastrophe sounds like "Deus ex machina without the negative connotation". 85.181.12.226 (talk) 14:03, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Traditional deus ex machina = eucatastrophe?  

message: This page mentions that the -eu- preceding Catastrophe is the addition of the term for -good-. I wonder though, since  Euripides was associated with early Deus Ex Machina tropes, if it might be possible that Tolkien meant this as an abbreviation of the man`s name too. --Ranze (talk) 12:38, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Conservation and restoration of immovable cultural property

message: "Architectural conservation" as a title appears to be a very American-centric notion of a conservator-restorers' role with architecture.  I suggest moving it back to conservation-restoration of architecture, to be in better keeping with a global language.  It could "also be called architectural conservation."--RichardMcCoy (talk) 10:59, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Cyclekart

message: 'CycleKarts and their builders don't like to take things too seriously' sounds more like an ad than an objective description, and anyway I don't see how a cyclekart could 'take things seriously' in the first place! This, and the use of short forms of verbs such as 'don't', gives this whole article a sloppy, unreliable feel. Then again, I suppose the author might tell me 'don't take things so seriously'....188.203.49.105 (talk) 12:05, 20 September 2014 (UTC)

Talk:WMTS-FM

message: It would be nice if you guys could include a brief history of the station. If I remember correctly, there is a station history that is supposed to be maintained by station officers. I was once a DJ there, back in the olden days of 1992-1994, and I'll happily fill in what I remember. I figure if 'RVU can have a history on their wiki article, why not 'MTS?
Before WMTS had a transmittter, it was known by the unofficial call letters WNAR ("We Need A Radio") and broadcast over campus cable on Housing Channel 39, and later to the entire city of Murfreesboro over MTSU-TV Channel 8 (Yes, that was before it was MTTV on channel 10). Before the spiffy studios in the 2nd floor of the LRC were donated by WMOT, we broadcast (narrowcast?) from a small office also on the 2nd floor of the LRC, and used a closet across from the "studio" for our media library. The equipment was ancient, kludged together and as several DJ's at the time could attest, didn't always work. Prior to when I left MTSU in 1994, we had learned that we had been granted the 88.3 frequency. At the time the WMTS call letters belonged to AM 810 WMTS in Murfreesboro. When that station learned the student-run radio station wanted the call signs, they graciously changed their calls to WAPB (now spanish-language WMGC) and donated the WMTS calls to the MTSU station. CaponeX 20:51, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: History

message: Correction on the studio space donation.  They were originally part of the MTSU College Of Mass Communication's Radio/TV laboratory, however, they just happened to be next to WMOT.  Since WMTS also serves as a training ground for students, reuse of this space seemed appropriate.  For many years, that space was full of old desks, ancient mixing consoles, cart machines and various other junk.  For the most part, CaponeX's early history comments are correct.  I served as the station's technical director from 1995 to 1999 and helped out a bit as an alumni DJ from 1999 until 2003. Also, for several years, there has been discussion of moving both WMTS and WMOT into a new studio location, possibly over at the Mass Communications building once they (if ever) add an addition to that building.  The Learning Resources Center is technically 'owned' by the College of Education these days.  Maxquad (talk) 21:45, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: A bit more history

message: Could someone at least edit the history of WMTS without rehashing old WMTS website material from 1995? I wrote that history when WMTS's first website went online back in those days.  Maxquad (talk) 15:36, 08 May 2009 (UTC)

message: According to the Wikipedia article on Iris Love, it was she who discovered that the sculptures were forgeries. She notified the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City of the date of publication in a reputable academic journal. ONE DAY before that edition of the journal was published, the Metropolitan Museum of Art announced that the sculptures were forgeries, and in its announcement there was not a word about Iris Love's work. We can't prevent the Metropolitan Museum of Art from doing what they do, but we don't have to let them do it in Wikipedia's pages. This article needs to be rewritten to include the fact that Iris Love's article was going to be a huge embarrassment to the Metropolitan, and that the Metropolitan acted to minimize the embarrassment, and that the Metropolitan wouldn't have let out a peep had not Iris Love's upcoming article forced them to do so.2600:1700:6759:B000:1C64:8308:33BC:E2D6 (talk) 07:08, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
