…found while reading through my daily “Heute in the Feuilletons” Perlentaucher<\/a> write-up of cultural news. It\u00a0 was a word in an article in today’s FAZ (Frankfurter Allgemeiner Zeitung) claiming that it is an “epochale Niederlage der Kulturpolitik”<\/em> i.e. an “epochal defeat of cultural politics.” The article is not available online, so there is no way of checking if the “defeat” refers to what the word refers to, or to the word itself qua linguistic teratoid. A translation would have to circumscribe the wordblob something like this: “the decision to push back the reconstruction of the city’s castle.”<\/p>\n
