Summary
A common plaint heard from German-speaking English newspaper readers concerns the superiority of arts coverage, especially music coverage, in their German counterparts. German arts supplements still maintain a degree of serious criticism as opposed to mere journalism, even as German critics worry that their platform and, of course, their employment are falling under ‘Anglo-Saxon’ threat. The term Feuilleton retains its currency in Germany – in Poland too – although, except in historical usage, it now in French generally denotes a soap opera, a distinction which may or may not be relevant in itself.
