[COULD doesn't mean you SHOULD, and that just because you CAN do something doesn't mean it's automatically superior. You're meant to be making the case as to WHY we should do something, not presuming that because it has already been done, that is the right course of action, because we're being...

@nutman451 "TIL Seuss is actual sacred text. Someone please protect "Go Dog Go You're missing the point, the "who cares" argument will only lead to the destruction of ideas because it doesn't recognize the inherent value of books. If we allow any books to be destroyed because of the perceived...

@readingsit I can certainly agree with you argument about public domain. The current system is ridiculous. Of course we're all here on this site so I think that's pretty much a given.

@nutman451 "You're missing the point, the "who cares" argument will only lead to the destruction of ideas because it doesn't recognize the inherent value of books. If we allow any books to be destroyed because of the perceived ideas found in the book (regardless if it's true or false) then we...

@readinslit So the alternative to the "opinion" on Seuss that he isn't necesary is the "fact" that he IS neccesary? Again, by what standard? Publication can end for a variety of reasons. Many times even ones you'd consider stupid, but they aren't usually given coverage because they aren't...

@Tamerlane Ah yes and Seuss is a uniquely talented and absolutely necesary for children's literature? note that you'vre chosen to make your argument easier for yourself by conflating mine with an attack on ALL children's literature, including classics, so you can make my argument seem more...

@Tamerlane Then don't. The value of art is subjective. It's not an exaggeration that if you're looking for pure educational value, the Suess books could easily be replaced. Again, I don't "have to" discredit these other famous children's authors your brought up simply to strenghen your argument...

@Tamerlane Suess isn't Homer. Children's books change. No kid is reading pulp novels from the 30's anymore. What a leap saying I have to discredit the Odyssey of all things? When did I suggest Suess was "mandatory"? The books in question aren't even popular works in comparison. Besides, being...

Now scanlating Suess-sensei's latest works. SKILLED re-drawers required! TL Notes: That two page spread in the last chapter...

Would personally prefer my children to at least read books with decent art Suess-sensei really doesn't bring out the true eroticism of the Cat in the Hat

@wowfucktron Who cares? It's a kids book. They go out of print all the time. What is Suess some kind of pinnacle of children's literature so advanced it MUST be preserved? Pfft Ah yes the great cultural symbols, Motzart, Da Vinci and... Suess

This is really good so far

Hey man I'd say go for it! Some translations have been dead for years and as soon as they finally get picked up again they get big! Partly because there's way more readers than translaters. For example Mozuya-san is waaaaay behind in translation (finished in Japan years ago) but because someone...
