Talk:Caligula (play)

Query
What does it mean to be "seemingly soft on the surface"?

Or "seething with details" for that matter? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.249.9.222 (talk) 15:02, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

It seems to be a babel-fish translation. Someone should try to rewrite the text! Chalom (talk) 17:12, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

Indeed, it's a babel-fish translation of the French article. I have made the introduction and the translations of the Camus quotes more readable and eliminated some irrelevant stuff; the article should now convey at least a basic understanding of the play. But the article needs to be rewritten, and the French one is apparently no help - it has no real citations and makes claims like "Often staged in France and elsewhere, Caligula will be the most durable success of Camus' stage works." But this is probably a job for someone who's familiar with the play, not just an English-speaker starting to read it in French class! 65.96.162.68 (talk) 23:50, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

This article is a mess.
